Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Low (1 to 2 hours)
2
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Imperceptible
2
Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

The fragrance is truly impressive. It's bright, with noticeable spices and rose. The spices here just stand out, they're as if screaming, attracting attention at every stage of development. This is something else
4/5

I didn't see anything special here. Just ordinary oud with spices, patchouli, and rose. The scent is strong, rich, long-lasting, and leaves a long trail 💪
1/5
1
The oud is indeed very sharp and bitter. This burnt smell didn't impress me at all. It's hard to imagine anyone wanting to wear such bitterness. In my opinion, it's not the best choice
3/5
3
The spices here are just top-notch! 😤 The oud is barely noticeable, the spicy accent overwhelms everything. I mainly smell saffron and cloves, and sometimes patchouli breaks through. I couldn't catch the other notes, this scent is clearly more for men
3/5

This scent reminds me of a balsamic version of an oud accord. If "eternal" for me is associated with smoke, then here you feel a heavy balm, with a slight hint of something animalic (castoreum is mentioned in some pyramids). On cold skin, it appears quite restrained, but how it will unfold on warm skin - I'm even scared to imagine )
5/5
5
This oriental perfume is simply unbearable. The complex combinations and rare extracts that should inspire actually just annoy you. Extreme Oud is some kind of nightmarish mix of saffron, clove, and oud that just crushes your brain. Rose, opoponax, castoreum, patchouli, and vetiver - all of this together creates something you just want to wash off as soon as possible
4/5
4
A fragrance where woody notes blend with spices and flowers. It's really bright and rich, though it might seem simple in places, but overall it smells very beautiful and natural. This perfume is more suitable for winter ❄️
3/5
3
This fragrance is another attempt to surprise, but in reality, it just showers you with spices. It's warm, yes, it warms you up, but the sillage isn't surprising. Overall, it's no different from the others in this line
4/5
4
This oriental woody fragrance is truly impressive. Clove and saffron sound so natural, it feels like you're in an oriental market. Rose and oud unfold later, adding brightness. The longevity is simply excellent, and the unisex notes make it versatile. A true inspiration
