The signature scent of Scarface Tony Montana
I got the fragrance here from the
Souk , you know that with this series of Xerjoff the fragrance notes are kept more or less secret .

The fragrance arrived today and I couldn't help but spray it directly on my wrist to see if it really is so Mafioso Like ...
Apropo Mafioso , as a car dealer you always have such a reputation generally quickly away and my ML who was still alive until January and then died due to engine fire by electrical short circuit, had according to the people in my environment or in our small village also the reputation away, because everything was black to look like a mafia box . So the people from the village .
Then I thought to myself as a rather hoodie jeans and sneaker wearer, why not wear or test such a fragrance, then it is certainly said that it also smells like one ...

But ....
Of course I'm not one and the statements were rather joking and clichéd. I'm known for my friendliness and honesty, but I'm a fan of everything being tone-on-tone when a car is black. My personal taste ...

About the fragrance, the opening is in my opinion on the nose, a mix of incense, spices and pepper ... who knows the Epic and Fate Man, will find certain fragrance notes here and there, I would describe it like this, both mixed with a good portion of pepper and as a pinch of salt was then taken a sip of whiskey and a thick dollop of molasses ...

But there was something else, it wouldn't be called that if it didn't have mafia parallels, after this prelude has been mixed through, you have to prepare for the next business, namely pressing the gunpowder into the cartridges, with a glass of whisky and a perfect Colombian cigar, so it goes on in the fragrance you recognize these fragrances (smells) on my skin they can all be perceived, provided you take the time and smell your wrist every 30 minutes.

So now the things are prepared and now it goes to the wearer, i.e. it develops in a completely different direction at the end, where it would absolutely fit to a Tony ... for the forum times said, a kind of Jubilation Drydown mixed with Tobacco Oud Drydown with peppery undertone . It's more like the scents listed here and this is what makes the fragrance so mysterious and absolutely, in my eyes, brilliant.

The durability , no don goes so fast . 8h no problem, once the great bottle is on the shelf it stays, it demands due to its uniqueness who likes something like that also continue to pay the protection money by buying the perfume again.

The all-in-one Xerjoff or the egg-laying wool-milk sow ...
As you can see from the title, this Xerjoff is one of the best known or even the most unfamiliar in the perfume world, which in my eyes is equipped with an all-round carefree package based on the fragrance notes.
It simply suits every season, every occasion, every time of day and every outfit. Compared to its brothers , I find it the most suitable for the masses .

The opening begins after the first spray fruity floral fresh , pineapple with the hyacinth are in the foreground , after a short while you realize where the pepper grows , namely slowly and evenly in the base , the jasmine blooms , the hyacinth sits next to her in the bed and the pepper slowly grows out . The pineapple is slightly in the background.
After about 1 hour, the floral duo has moved into the distance and the pepper has grown, but it no longer grows in the floral environment but has been repotted in a bowl decorated with vetiver, vanilla, patchouli, amber and musk ...
Then this bowl was placed in front of the duo and a pineapple was embedded in mochus and amber as the icing on the cake.

This combination is simply a success , due to the exclusivity of the oils and the bottle, a visual and not only olfactory delicacy has been set .

Acccento , means accent . It emphasizes the blend of fragrances very well, no loud blasting of a single fragrance note

The woman is gone, the scent remains
It's 2013 and 2 years after my serious car accident I'm fit to travel again!
The first trip was a trip with the Aida 10 days eastern Mediterranean and in the ship's own perfumery the fragrance was new , unsuspecting on the vastness of the seas I tested it , but decided for another . The scent didn't really suit the hot weather outside (we were heading for Israel). She said : great scent but more for the winter , I agreed with her ...
After the trip was over, we visited a couple still living together in the far north in the fall, in keeping with the season. My partner at the time and I wanted to go to Fehmarn . When we got there, the dog or seal was buried due to the time of year. Locals gave us the tip to take the ferry from Puttgarden to Rogby and back, they often do that too, they have a great boutique...
I did it, it was deep autumn and the weather was accordingly, when I arrived at the boutique the saleswoman jumped up to me with the bottle and said: it suits you perfectly ... my partner at the time already had the look on it: it's licked and mine ... typical competitive behavior ... I just said to her: I don't like it in summer, the lady just said: you don't wear something like that at this time of year but now is the right time . No sooner could I answer than I had a spray on my wrist ... we went out on deck towards the stern and I realized how the scent got into my nose, expressing I belong to you right now ...

It was still very citrusy and peppery in the opening below deck, up on deck it became very nicely rounded by the orange blossom, violet and cedar ... which very quickly integrated into the top note. after we had been up on deck for about 20 minutes we went down to have a coffee, we sat at the table in the café on board, talked and she just said: is that the scent that smells so good here? There is something so great in the air here and I gave her my hand, she smelled it and said wow it's really great it's very different ... we finished our drinks and. Went to the boutique and I bought it. What was so great in the air was the mix of the top notes in the drydown combined with the woody leather benzoin twist .
It easily lasted until the evening , but it also awakened the battle cuddler effect in the evening . It had a bit of an effect .

We split up 2.5 years later due to very different opinions, the fragrance was only worn in fall / winter and when we were out and about.
She just wanted children and family and money from me, but since I absolutely reject the provider role and would never make a person dependent on me, this ended the matter.

Of course I was very disappointed at the time because she undermined these views very strongly at the beginning, my family said in the end that she was calculated ... because the relationship also survived the accident ... I couldn't wear the scent for a few years because it evoked memories . But it didn't disappoint me when I found it again some time ago and used it. I had forgotten the bottle as well as them. Now I wear this piece for myself and enjoy its great gradient especially in fall / winter. The durability of one of the first batches is 8h plus , strong silage . Well known YSL bottle ...

Mr. Dua aka Mr. Grey
Mr. Dua is a serious banker from Wall Street , friendly unobtrusive and pleasantly masculine he comes along . But like Mr. Grey, he has two sides, which are also reflected in the fragrance.

The opening starts serious and noble , a mixture of bergamot amber and vanilla . This first sniff makes him seem serious and dry, like a real banker who has to be wallstreet to his customers .
until he reaches for the whiskey, after which everything changes, including the scent. The serious banker is passé and he becomes smoky and peppery ... a ripper who slightly eclipses his serious opening . Once he picks up the rose and approaches a lady, he becomes the irresistible Mr. Grey, a mixture that radiates success and sex. The seductive effect of the rose, the calming sandalwood and the tonka bean make him appear passionately wild and masculine. Women fall for this composition, once they have fallen for it, Mr. Grey quickly comes through again. After all their strength has been discharged, he puts on his clothes and goes back to being a serious banker.

This fragrance is very complex , you can say it stages several scenes . Longevity ? Until the next day . Very complex course , sometimes depending on temperature and environment it changes roles abruptly . Every half hour.

I know of nothing comparable.

A small pot please
Golden Dallah means translated from Arabic: a golden coffee pot.

I have a bottling and do not rate the fragrance according to my taste, but according to how it smells and what it conveys to me .

It's 40 degrees plus in a small Arab town and a hot, dry wind is blowing. On the market square of this town I look for a shady spot in an Arab CAFÉ , my nose is filled with a spicy note from all the spice stalls of the large rose bush in my immediate vicinity , it is an Arab shrub rose that gives off its strong scent . It is a very pleasant spicy and rosy mixture , after about 20min wait I am served the golden Dallah ( an Arabic coffee pot ) and I pour myself a cup , I realize how easily the coffee scent brings in this strong spicy rose mixture .
The result is a dream from 1001 and one night for lovers of rose scents and Arabic spices who enjoy a cup of coffee with it. The stay on my skin for this trip to the Orient is limited to 4-6 hours after which you leave the café and on the way to the hotel you still have this fragrance mixture lightly and discreetly in your nose .

Fact and personal opinion: absolutely recommended for fans of this type of fragrance who do not want a coffee fragrance but one that represents a situation.
Anyone looking for a coffee scent here should go further .
