Spicy lover's dream.
Desert Suave is warm, sweet, and very comforting. Desert Suave was one of the first fragrances that got me interested in the brand overall and when I first sprayed it I was so hooked. Maybe it was the cardamom opening on the top that I found very delicious. It almost smells like a spice market in Morocco. The fragrance is sweetened by dates that add slight fruity nuance in it (in a very dense almost concentrated bees-wax like way) which you can recognize right away as you put your nose on it. I do get leathery aspects at the back that add depth and richness.⁣⁣

Desert Suave definitely transports me to an oasis somewhere deep in a desert. It's super soft and tender and very creamy and well-rounded. ⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣Overall, I think Desert Suave is a winner from the brand. It's elegant and timeless in my opinion and I can only recommend sampling it. ⁣⁣

Spice Box next to burning incense!
If I had to describe this one, in short, it would a spicy dark and dusty blend of patchouli & tobacco with the bitterness of cacao powder. ⁣

⭕ I remember very clearly few years ago I was at my French friend's place who loves cigar's and he had a old dark wooden box with a lot of cigars in them. Cozē reminded me of the scent coming off of that box. That smell of dry tobacco with the woodiness of that box was really something. It stayed with me. ⁣

⭕ Cozē starts off with the blast of dry patchouli and some herbaceous notes. Very green and almost fouguere like in the beginning. Then it smoothens out with the smokey and bitter notes. Even though the note breakdown says dark chocolate I do get straight-up roasted cacao powder vibe. Nothing gourmand about it at all with a lot of incense and smoke at the back.⁣

Overall, a promising release from the brand. To me, it smells like a basement of a cigar club which is slightly mossy with earthy undertones (all in a positive way). Very warm, cozy & waxy with a gothic feel to it. stays very close to the skin but you get whiffs of it from time to time. If you like patchouli & tobacco notes and enjoy incensy/ smokey fragrances, Id definitely recommend you to sample this! ⁣

Warm & Velvety Spice blend!
To me it's smoke, it's fire, it's warm and cozy. Scorpio Rising is everything and more. It's a stunning blend of spices. I get a mouthwatering blend of cardamom, cinnamon and cloves all wrapped around incense notes in the background. Dry down is nothing less amazing. I get leathery aspects along with a lot of woody ambery notes. ⁣

It's like a warm pashmina scarf that wraps you around in a magical spell. The last time a spicy fragrance blew my mind was when I first smelled Spicebomb many years ago. ⁣

Overall, if you love spicy fragrances, Scorpio Rising will just satisfy all your olfactive senses. It's the elegance that you know from Antonie's creations for Les Indémodables Parfums, Maison Trudon and the list goes on. Scorpio Rising is hands-down my fav. fragrance from the lineup and I would definitely recommend you to sample this beauty.⁣

Summer in a bottle!
Verte Euphorie is an excellent juicy citrus fragrance that opens up with a blast of blood orange and citrus notes. So it’s super tangy and bitter. Like a sour fretting cocktail. Bright & uplifting fragrance with an aromatic nature that has the potential to lift the mood in a second really. I get an opulent and rich orange blossom vibe in it that takes me to a white sand beach somewhere in the tropics. ⁣

I can’t really pinpoint any other fragrance that smells like it but it surely checks all the boxes when it comes to being an excellent summer staple. The warmer the skin gets the more it shines. ⁣

Definitely worth a sample if you are looking for a fragrance that doesn't break a bank and smells amazing.

Everyday Modern Leather
Opens with a blast of leather along with a herbal tone to them. Like wild forest berries. There is a big-time wooden shavings like undertone that makes the scent quite addictive on the skin. There is a creaminess (probably from the sandalwood) in the fragrances which shares off any kind of edges that might come from leather and they almost add richness to the scent. ⁣

It really smelled like what you would imagine a contemporary and a classic leather fragrance. The DNA is so familiar to the nose that it’s hard not to like it. An all rounder leather in short. You can wear it when it’s hot on a white t-shirt and jeans or with your leather jacket as a masculine statement.⁣

? Overall, a beautiful everyday leather. The DNA does remind me of Tuscan Leather but it’s much lighter (and long-lasting) than TL. So if you are looking to get into leather, or want a daily leather fragrance that doesn’t break the bank you can definitely go for Urban leather. I have no second thoughts recommending it. ⁣
