Love at second sight
Now that I've owned the "Tony Iommi Monkey Special | XerJoff" for a year and it's still my absolute favorite fragrance, I have to dedicate my first review to it at this point.
Before I was allowed to smell it for the first time, the fragrance notes really appealed to me. A passion fruit that has fallen into rum and has been mopped up with leather. This is joined by sensual vanilla, caramel and a hint of cinnamon.
So it was clear that I had to try this fragrance.
I was finally able to test the fragrance in a perfumery. After spraying it on for the first time, I was disappointed. Unfortunately, I don't like the fragrance. Yes, it is something special that I have never smelled before. But it was not a fragrance I was convinced of.
Inwardly, I had given up on the fragrance and it was clear to me that it wasn't going to happen, no matter how exciting I found the composition of the fragrance notes.
A few weeks later, I was back in a perfumery and there it was again. The Tony Iommi and I decided to give it another chance. So I put the fragrance on my wrist and waited. Another disappointment at first. Then, on the way back to the car, came the surprise. I had a scent in my nose the whole time, which was so unique and so beautiful.
That was the moment when this fragrance became my absolute favorite.
As the fragrance progressed, it always showed a different face. You never had the feeling that the fragrance stayed the same, but kept changing its radiance.
As already mentioned, I have never smelled a fragrance that even remotely resembles Tony Iommi. The opening begins with a wonderful rum note and a very fruity, sweet passion fruit that complements the rum perfectly. Later on, a leather accord with a hint of cinnamon is added.
However, the fragrance never smells the same and has many different phases that can be perceived throughout the day.
The longevity is outstanding. After applying it tomorrow, you could still smell it late in the evening. And all this with just 2 sprays.
I don't need to say much about the bottle. The presentation is Xerjoff like, just what you would expect in this price range and the bottle is really beautifully designed.
All in all, I can summarize that this fragrance is a really great dark and sweet fragrance for autumn/winter and for going out.
