    At last I’ve got my hands on this gem after having the Mini: a sweet patchouli with warm creamy notes of benzoin and cinnamon. It feels incredibly sexy and elegant perfect for temperate or cold climates. I see it as more of a night scent than a day one and for me it’s one of the best in the CH collection alongside Oud Couture. Every nose is a world but in my opinion it doesn’t smell like 1 Million Prive nor TF Pour Femme or even Midnight Poison by Dior which I also own.

  2. The projection is brutal but on my skin it fades to skin-level very quickly. Upon giving it some thought I noticed the dry-down is very similar to Angel Mouse by Mugler; Angel has a citrusy touch at the start but as it dries down they become remarkably alike. The truth is given the price I could have saved myself and stuck with the Mugler.

    An excellent substitute for Midnight Poison by Dior. Elegant to the utmost.

  4. The downside of exclusives is that they make them unisex and I think that’s wrong. They remain undefined and I don’t want to meet a man who smells exactly like me; zero kink. I already have this and Amber Désiré and I’m heading for the Burning Rose from the same line.

  5. It evokes a masterful beauty. There is a certain elegance a spicy and elegant patchouli that smells of cinnamon and benzoin. It is very spicy lasts over eight hours and projects perfectly in cold climates. I believe it is perfect for any lover of this note; in formal situations it leaves a beautiful trail of sweet spices. There is a tobacco note that reminds me of Pure Havane at times and Interlude by Amouage. It is one of those perfumes that smells of mystery and elegance; I see a well-dressed person at a gala night a wedding or a date at a luxury restaurant.

  6. I smelled it at Palacio de Hierro in Polanco CDMX and it is vastly different. It is attractive enveloping and you can’t help but sniff it; I received many compliments. I see it more for men than for women. Vastly sexy. It smells a bit sweet but nothing cloying; it is a scent from another world a very fine and tasty patchouli.
