Country of origin — France, and that already says something about the quality. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.

The first time I tested it at home, in the warmth, and then went outside - it was around zero degrees, windy, and damp. The first notes just explode with pepper and spices, and this feeling scratches my throat a bit, even though I tried to apply it carefully, away from my face. The sillage is just enormous - I filled the entire apartment with its peppery cloud. The spices last a long time; I smell pepper and clove, but already softer and more warming. I feel like it's missing a bit of vanilla, I really want to add it. And then, after a couple of hours, I start to feel a light, very light vanilla-ness (although it's not in the notes, maybe a floral undertone affects me this way).
In the cold, the fragrance doesn't open up; only spices remain, and it takes a long time to warm up indoors before softening. In the base, I feel powder, slightly dusted with spices. The fragrance is very long-lasting - I can still smell it on myself even the next morning, even though I applied it in the evening. On clothes, a dusty powder with a hint of pepper remains until washing. After an evening and night with it, I needed a break from fragrances - I didn't use or inhale anything for a whole day. This is clearly not an everyday fragrance, but over time, I think we'll get to know each other better ))
