You could be so much more...
After I bought "Midnight in Paris (Eau de Toilette) | Van Cleef & Arpels" a few years ago and was immediately impressed, I finally wanted another fragrance from vc&a.
After much trial and error, I ended up with "Collection Extraordinaire - Moonlight Patchouli | Van Cleef & Arpels".
It simply smells incredibly good. A spicy fragrance at the beginning, paired with floral influences that round it off a little and don't make it too overpowering.
After a short time, this first impression fades and what follows is a beautiful and very pleasant sweetness with a slightly leathery effect. Great coordination!
So much praise, but unfortunately I have to criticize the longevity and sillage. It seems as if I am the only one who notices this fragrance on me before it is no longer really recognizable even to me after an hour. That's such a shame, as this is a real treasure that needs to be seen/smelled!!!
Nevertheless, I don't regret buying it, as "Collection Extraordinaire - Moonlight Patchouli | Van Cleef & Arpels" lets me switch off for a brief moment!

Perfect for an evening at the bar
This fragrance is reminiscent of an evening at the bar, accompanied by a cigar and perhaps a glass of whiskey.
Because the first thing I notice here is a beautiful, warm and smoky note. A very memorable and unique smell.
Once this initial impression subsides, I find a perfect interplay of sweet vanilla and strong tobacco notes. So well coordinated that it is impossible to say which of the two notes is the more dominant. But that's exactly what makes Café Tabac so outstanding.
It is not a perfume for the working day, as a very dominant fragrance has been created here. But all the more suitable for the evening!
The durability on the skin is ok. Maybe 5-6 hours. It lasts several days on my clothes. The sillage is definitely in the upper range. You are definitely noticed and stand out from the crowd!
The price for the 100ml bottle is therefore quite justified!

The perfect fragrance
Naxos is suitable for almost any occasion
Whether a relaxed evening with friends or a romantic date with the intention to seduce. Because that's what Naxos can do...seduce!
Even before he has time to fully reveal himself, he's already got you wrapped around his finger. At least that's how I felt.
This sweet and spicy fragrance is accompanied by a delicate vanilla note. I also notice a hint of tobacco, albeit very subtle.
The sillage is incredible. It is noticed everywhere and definitely leaves a lasting impression.
I would leave it alone for the summer, as it can otherwise be overwhelming due to its strong perception.
The bottle is classic and yet very elegant. Just as you would expect from Xerjoff.
If you are not put off by the price, which is always reasonable, you should buy this great fragrance

Good price-performance ratio
I can't say that it went down well with me straight away. At the beginning it was too woody for me, which bothered me a little. But after about 15-20 minutes, I was more than amazed at how good it smells.
It is accompanied throughout by a woody spiciness that flattens out over time but never disappears. There is also a slight vanilla note, which tames the "spiciness" quite well. I found it very pleasant as a result.
I can't say how others perceive it on me, but I smell it myself over a very long period of time. I estimate that it lasts a good 10-12 hours on my skin and even longer on my clothes.
In addition, I would say that it is a nice fragrance for the summer. At least it was my vacation fragrance in 2023, which never felt too heavy despite the blistering heat.
Definitely worth an experience!

Heavenly fragrance
Where do you start here?
When I spray this fragrance, I immediately feel carefree!
A beautiful sweet honey scent, very subtle but perceptible, makes itself felt. This remains for a short time before giving way to a mixture of vanilla and tobacco. Here, however, the tobacco does not take over and stays very lightly in the background.
In my opinion, the focus is clearly on the sweet and soft vanilla note, which is still recognizable the next day.
Sillage is also rather above average, which promises one or two compliments.
The durability, as already mentioned, is also above average.
So the price, which is 180 euros for 50ml, is absolutely fine!
For me, clearly a perfume that makes the difference!
