  Starts with a fresh, sharp citrus note, likely from the ginger and black pepper blend, but this fades within minutes to let amber take centre stage. It becomes linear: a light, sweet, powdery amber, reminiscent of Dior Homme but without that makeup or lipstick-like iris scent. Very soft and delicate; although classified as a men’s fragrance, it suits unisex wearers well—perhaps 60% feminine and 40% masculine—so a woman would wear it without issue. Reminded me of Ambre Fétiche, which is a far superior perfume. I had a weak trail, barely reaching half a metre, for about two hours, then it stayed close to the skin for another four hours before vanishing. Priced around $100 from the Signature Collection; if this is the best the brand offers, I can’t imagine what their standard line is like, though I’ve tried Icon and Icon Elite from the regular range, which perform better, as does their Custom, which, despite its poor longevity, still outshines this Signature scent. In terms of value, in my opinion, it shouldn’t cost more than $30 or $40. To sum up, a simple, soft, unremarkable amber with performance that leaves much to be desired; ideal for formal or semi-formal occasions, and I believe it can be worn all year round except in extremely hot climates.
