For those who already know the Mancera house, you know that in most cases it has incredible creations and in other cases not so much because they are a little confusing.

aoud lemon mint, is a fresh fragrance, with light citrus touches and an incredible mint note.
Opens green and extremely synthetic, with some sweetness that could be more discreet. Here the problem begins for some noses.
Some feel it is too synthetic and confusing.
however, starting from the middle of the fragrance, which lasts practically until the end, is where the magic happens, the long performance is felt throughout the day, accompanied by the note of mint and oud.

In this precise case, if the raw materials had been of extreme quality and the opening more moderate, it would be a perfume that everyone would have in their collection. In this way, I feel that some people move away due to the synthetic opening.
Overall it is a great perfume, very versatile and can be used all year round easily.

7/10

If you like br540 edp you will certainly like the extrait version.

In terms of notes, this is an improved and slightly more versatile version.
I end up feeling a subtle freshness and lightness when I use br540 extrait instead of the edp version.
maintaining all the performance or even more than the original version.

9/10 overall.

Super versatile and can be used on all occasions and seasons.

Trajan. But what an interesting discovery!
Trajan is actually an incredible perfume, especially for lovers of the well-known BR540.

To give you an idea, trajan contains a lot of similarities with Br540 in the EDP version but with a very prominent and sweet touch of Vanilla.
Opening very identical to BR540, which remains almost throughout the life of the perfume, ending up predominant in vanilla, which I feel is the same used in its brother Impirium from the same house.
Very pleasant, less cloying than the OG br540. a little more versatile and crystal clear.

Very good longevity and projection.

Absolute Aphrodisiac. A true aphrodisiac?

In my opinion, no, at least when compared to its incredible brothers. oud for greatness, happiness, rehab, side effect...
Absolute Aphrodisiac is a perfume that opens very sweet, with a predominance of vanilla and behaves in this way throughout its useful life. Super pleasant but somehow I feel it is too simple. Not very intriguing and complex.
Maybe it should be darker, and caramelized.

Basically, it is a well-constructed perfume, but with a simple result that generates compliments, but not because of the difference.
generates praise for its sweetness and creaminess.

6/10 overall.
good overall performance. Better than Rehab on my skin. but less intriguing than oud for hapiness or greatness.
for those who want a slightly different vanilla it is a good perfume.

Side effect, the perfume considered seductive for all romantic encounters.

Side effect starts off very sweet and warm, with a very light touch of rum and vanilla. Almost or not at all boozy.
an almost liqueur touch.
vanilla along with cinnamon and tobacco take over the perfume a few minutes after the opening disappears.
The entire perfume gives off a sexy, cozy vibe, full of sweetness. Which in no way has a dark and mysterious touch. Just sweet and warm. Ideal for a romantic dinner on a cold winter night with a good wine.
I also feel a reddish touch.

On my skin the performance is medium / low unfortunately. I felt some projection but very quickly it became close to the skin.

Overall it is a 7/10 perfume. Which in my opinion only manages to be a 7 due to the fact that it has a very sweet smell without being too cloying and basic like the others.

for those who want a perfume with an incredible and conservative smell, you will do well with Side effect.
