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.

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.

Imperceptible

An appealing fragrance, no doubt. Pepper clearly dominates here, it's as if it makes you want to inhale it again and again. Violet and moss give it a special twist, making it not seem like an ordinary perfume. This is truly a beautiful and multifaceted scent
5/5

I can't say this fragrance impressed me. The maturity they talk about rather reminds me of tiredness. Pepper and lavender, yes, they're here, but the feeling they give off is somehow unbearable. Instead of freshness, there's some heaviness, as if a burden is on me. The resinous sweetness that unfolds only causes displeasure. The scent, of course, might seem expensive, but for me, it rather causes aversion. I don't know who could wear this, but I wouldn't risk it ))

The perfume is simply awful, I don't understand how anyone can praise it. For me, it resembles some black abyss that presses on the brain. Depth, yes, but it pulls you down rather than enticing. The scent is cold, but not in a good way, rather sharp and intrusive. They clearly overdid the pepper here, it makes my head spin. I don't recommend it, better choose something else
