This Montale is perfect for the transition from summer to fall.
A beautiful and strong plum in the opening. A little sweetish in my opinion.
Here too, typical for Montale, the synthetic beige scent, but it doesn't distract too much from the main focus.
I find that this first impression is retained, so that the intensity only subsides afterwards. It's nowhere near as strong as Infinity or Arabians Tonka, but it's not supposed to be. All in all, a successful fragrance that can also be worn in the office without any problems.

After I bought Midnight in Paris Eau de Toilette 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!

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!

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

The Shaghaf Oud exudes a beautiful, pleasant and very present sweetness that never seems artificial or overpowering
Over time, the intensity flattens out a little, but not so much that you no longer notice it. On the contrary, the sillage is so strong that I was even asked about the fragrance in the evening, even though I only sprayed it on my neck once in the morning.
The bottle's gold coating gives it a classic, oriental and sophisticated look. The simple geometry, on the other hand, makes it look somewhat plain and unimaginative.
The color also peels off the bottle quite quickly, which also highlights the lack of quality.
But that doesn't make it any worse.
Here you get a great fragrance for your money in an expandable bottle!
