This is a perfume that reminds me very much of Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme at certain moments. Like with other Armaf scents, I don’t think it’s a pure clone, but rather its own version. I’ve read it resembles a Creed, but since I don’t know that one, I’ll share my opinion here. The opening is powerful and very spicy; the pepper is noticeable but not unpleasant, balanced well with the fruity notes. I liked that complex opening. It has a very soft aquatic base where the plum stands out, sweet with citrus touches, all finished off by the pepper. Then the cinnamon appears; the fruits and citrus fade, but the pepper remains. It smells of very spicy cinnamon with elegant flowers, especially lavender which becomes powdery and slightly soapy over time, but very subtle. You can detect the sweet and musky woods. The vanilla is present almost all the time, especially at the end, soft and refined. I loved it. Longevity is very good: six hours perfect, then about three more close to the skin. Sillage is moderate, strong at first then close to the skin. Ideal for evening or cooler weather. Top value for money. Another success from Armaf that leaves me with a good taste in my mouth.

I picked this up cheap because it’s no longer sold; it sounds like they missed the target. I bought it out of curiosity to see if it matched Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme (though I haven’t tried that one myself), but in the end, I’m saving myself the trouble. It didn’t suit me from the Brune line, and at €30, it doesn’t hurt quite as much as if I’d spent triple on the original Chanel. It’s sweet but not overpowering, with an aromatic touch. Projection and longevity are average. I can’t say much more because I simply didn’t like it.
