Exciting and mysterious
I was first recommended the fragrance by a former perfumery in Stuttgart. At that time, the immediate WOW effect was already present at the first sniff.

After application, a very fresh, green citrus note comes to the fore, which lasts for a few minutes and then slowly slides further and further into the background. While the lemon and co. move into the background, a sweet-spicy vanilla-like tonka bean comes to the fore together with light cinnamon notes. Through the (and I'm referring here to the commentary by Yharnam79, as I can't describe it any better) shock-frozen currant, a fruit comes into play at the same time, which smells like berry but actually doesn't smell like these typical fruit notes at all. Because of this combination I don't feel the scent as heavy but still relatively fresh
Later the fragrance changes to a vanilla benzoin direction with a light note of moss and possibly hemp (no THC smell ... rather something planty/green). The berry freshness/sweetness has almost completely disappeared.

I see the scent more in gentlemen than in ladies. It is very wearable in autumn and winter. By this fresh/sweetish/spicy interplay one could wear it in my opinion even still well in spring

I can also recommend to test it, as the fragrance has become one of my favourites.

Tonka bean as fast and concise leading actor
I already knew the fragrance from one or two acquaintances and was very excited when I happened to receive it as a sample with another order. First of all I have to say that I like the scent on others much better than on myself.

To the fragrance:
Immediately after spraying it on I was very positively surprised by the fresh tangerine / cardamom note. Unfortunately, this - for me very good smelling - fresh / citric beginning was completely gone very quickly and changed very quickly into the sweet, vanilla tonka bean with a very light woody / smoky touch. Nutmeg, lavender and orange blossom I could not really perceive.

All in all a rather sweet, medium-bodied men's fragrance, which is mainly represented by the tonka bean. Thus it has a very sweet and warming effect very quickly. I can well imagine the scent on cold winter evenings, for example at a Christmas market.
