A very strange perfume that leaves me baffled. I tried it because of rumours it resembles Promise by FM, spoiler alert: nothing alike. The opening is fresh, spicy, and oriental, featuring a slightly dirty oud, tart green apple, and a note that isn’t quite metallic but reminds me of the dentist or a hospital. Combined with a faint animalic touch from the oud and cumin, it’s what makes me reject it. That cumin smells like sweat or damp clothes left in a sealed bag for a week. As it dries down, it sweetens minimally, retains that freshness, but reveals a leathery base with that ‘dirty’ aspect toned down. The opening causes quite a bit of rejection; it improves as it dries but still doesn’t quite appeal to me. It’s quite unique, but not for me; luckily, I only have a decant.

The opening is fresh, spicy, and oriental, with a slightly dirty oud, tart green apple, and a note that reminds me of the dentist or a hospital. Added to an animalic smell from the oud and cumin, which turns me off. The cumin smells like sweat or damp clothes in a closed bag. As it dries, it sweetens minimally and the leathery base becomes noticeable, yet that dirty touch remains. The opening turns me off, although it improves as it dries. It’s unique, but not for me; luckily, I only have a decant.

A brilliant fragrance! Super original, fresh, oriental, and spicy. A scent that might sound underwhelming to others, yet it has its own DNA, with excellent longevity and an acceptable trail for the first two hours. Highly recommended, though the only downside is the price, which seems rather steep in my view.

What a brilliant fragrance! It’s super original, fresh, oriental, and spicy. Although it sometimes recalls others, it has its own DNA. The longevity is top-notch and the trail is acceptable for the first couple of hours. Highly recommended, though the price is the only thing that takes points off.
Vandersar
This fragrance is a flanker of Ganymede. Basically, they’ve added cumin and unripe tart green apple to Ganymede. If you enjoy smelling of dry, musty sweat while at the dentist, this is your fragrance.

The David of Michelangelo is the bottled jewel of perfumery. While it hovers around $600 for 100ml, it could cost a million and would still deserve every drop.

The David of Michelangelo of perfumery. It’s expensive, around $600 for 100ml, but it could cost a million and I’d still deem every millilitre worth it.
