The first and so far only horse in the stable
Today it should be about the first "niche fragrance" in my collection.
The fragrance is already very long in my possession and was virtually a spontaneous purchase after countless recommendations from the personal environment.
Also on YouTube, the fragrance is very strongly represented and is found there as "very good".
Everything also no wonder, because he is virtually the "draught horse" of the brand "Parfums de Marly".
I would classify him already as a niche fragrance, which but rather works with designer notes.
As usual, the all-known subdivision follows:
1. The bottle:
The flacon of Layton is massive and robustly constructed.
The latter, unfortunately, I was already allowed to check myself, because the bottle has already galloped once from my perfume cabinet.
All in all, however, not even a scratch remained from the incident.
The flacon looks noble and for the price accordingly well constructed.
The sprayer is PDM-typically good and distributes the fragrance over a larger area.
The cap of the PDM flacon can be used as a household-typical all-purpose weapon against burglars, as is well known.
Simply place it in a stocking and use it as a percussion weapon.
2. The smell:
In my opinion, the most dominant note of the fragrance is the apple.
This is especially at the beginning strongly perceptible and pushes itself again and again in the foreground.
A certain similarity to the fragrance "Eros" by Versace is quite understandable.
At the beginning, the fragrance is very fruity and playful, which ends in the course of the fragrance in woods, paired with a beautiful vanilla.
The fragrance is nicely balanced and simply well constructed.
He is very pleasing and virtually always wearable.
However, my recommendation would be in the summer to do without the fragrance and leave it in the stable.
3. The projection / sillage:
The projection of the fragrance is consistently good and just in the first 1.5 hours he is noticeably strong projecting.
Subsequently, the fragrance remains rather skin(er).
The sillage is always present, but also weakens with time.
The fragrance leaves but steadily, depending on the number of sprays, a nice scent tail.
4. The durability:
I would estimate the average shelf life for me at about eight hours.
Partly, however, I have the impression that this is actually day-dependent.
Eight hours but can be used as a good guide for everyday life.
5. My conclusion:
As mentioned at the beginning, this fragrance is my first "niche fragrance" and therefore has a special place in my heart.
The fragrance is very pleasing and the price / performance ratio is top.
He neither overwhelms the wearer nor the appropriate environment.
Nevertheless, I would say that the fragrance is aimed more at the younger clientele of Parfums de Marly.
Finally, a note to the gentlemen of creation: yes, like the good "Eros" the fragrance is noticed by the female sex, recognized and described as "seductive". This has various everyday tests on my part can confirm.

Honey bomb from Italy
So here it is, my second contribution to the Parfumo community.
I have chosen the fragrance "Naxos" from the house "Xerjoff", because this fragrance is smelled over and over again by me.
In advance I would like to note that I own the fragrance only as a bottling, but the fragrance already physically as a bottle in the hands held.
The fragrance description I would like to divide into the already generally known categories:
1. The bottle:
The bottle has a super look, looks massive, noble and is an eye-catcher in any place - typical Xerjoff just.
2. The smell:
Naxos is known for its honey/tobacco combination, which is also quite always present during the course of the fragrance.
The fragrance itself is very sweet and partly felt soapy. Many would also like to say that it is in places pappig and one-dimensional.
The latter is unfortunately not to be dismissed out of hand, but that makes the fragrance somehow also.
If you wear this fragrance, you just want to enjoy the core notes of the fragrance and they are as I said always perceptible.
In general, you can say that the fragrance actually builds strongly on the honey and plays in the background with tobacco notes.
However, these are very discreetly woven into the fragrance, which is why it is always difficult for me, in any case, to smell them out specifically.
In addition, there are citrus notes, which I can not name precisely.
The fragrance is thus in places also "fresh".
All in all, the fragrance seems very noble and self-confident.
One (s) should not shy away from the fragrance, because I have already received several compliments from women for the fragrance.
I would recommend the fragrance for the colder season or the colder days of the year.
However, I have also tested it on warmer days, which is why this is more of a recommendation on my part.
3. The projection / sillage:
The projection and sillage of the fragrance is very strong - this is especially true in the first hours of the fragrance.
The fragrance is consistently well perceived, but should NOT be overdosed.
I have also unfortunately already accomplished that a work colleague was "allowed" to perceive the fragrance in a briefly visited office for a very long time.
4. The durability:
Naxos has a good shelf life and is perceptible even after several hours.
However, the increasingly skin(er) once several hours have passed.
In general, the known 8+ hours are quite realistic, if not partly even understated.
Especially on colder days I have the feeling that the fragrance is stronger than on others.
5. My conclusion:
Naxos is one of, if not (considering the price) the best fragrance from the house of Xerjoff.
He can certainly be called the entry and at the same time as the "flagship" of the house.
The fragrance is consistently unisex and you get a lot of quality for a relatively "low" Xerjoff price.
All in all, however, the fragrance is rather something for fans of gourmand fragrances.

Tiziana Terenzi - Orion, discussed underground and yet known?!
Good Orion, whether a mythical celestial hunter in the night or a flacon, he is beautiful to look at.
Well, the comparison of a perfume with a constellation is perhaps also only due to the "Luna" collection of the house, but the fate of this perfume is literally "in the stars".
Why "in the stars?" Well, this fragrance is by name, at least so far on my perfume journey, never appeared directly.
Attentively I have become on him, as I have discovered smaller perfume-YouTuber, which have pointed out from their video offer to me rather unknown fragrances.
The scent of "Orion" is very often equated with that of the almost "legend" Aventus by Creed. Therefore, he has a strong kindred in the environment, which has become a real box office hit.
Admittedly, I am a fan of Aventus, so Orion had to be included in my collection (sample).
Just the concentration of the fragrance "Extrait de Parfum" is a standout feature that sets it apart from the well-known Aventus.
The known reformulation problem of Aventus, I will not take up here in more detail.
To the fragrance itself:
The fragrance reminds me at the first Aufsprühen directly to its fragrance colleague.
As soon as the fragrance hits the skin, you perceive a fruity pineapple, followed by bergamot, apple and red currant.
However, the apple note is only of a light nature on my skin.
The opening of the fragrance is strong and definitely pleasantly perceptible in the environment.
It reminds me of the opening of a fruity bottling of Aventus, which I was allowed to call my own at the time.
After the fragrance has sat on my skin for a while, birch, patchouli and spices come into play.
The birch in combination with the spices prevails for me but strongly.
The thyme listed separately in the fragrance notes I do not perceive or if only very weak.
As soon as the fragrance leans towards the end, incense and oud also show their face.
Here also shows a big difference between the initially mentioned Aventus and Orion.
In conclusion, I can only say that Orion is a good fragrance for the friends of the "Aventus & Co." Family.
Yes, the house of Tiziana Terenzi or Paolo Terenzi has been inspired by Aventus at this point, but Orion goes in an independent direction.
He uses the well-known fragrance notes of a colleague and adds his own, smaller nuances.
The fragrance family is not revolutionized here, but actually improved because of the complexity.
Last but not least, the durability, also owed to the fragrance concentration, is very good and will be a decisive reason for many to buy.
However, the projection is moderate for me.
And to the flacon I do not have to comment at all.
Anyone who has ever held a flacon of the house in the hands will know that these are very high quality and especially in the Luna collection really beautiful to look at.
Small note on our own behalf: pay attention to the lid of the flacon, which is really heavy and could well cause damage if handled improperly.
As a last sentence, I would like to take up the contribution of "Turi", because he has already summarized it well: "Orion is clearly more adult, professional and long-winded than Aventus."
Whether I can call Orion soon my own, remains to be seen.
You could say it is still "in the stars".
This is my first and certainly not the last review in this community.
Stay healthy!
