The blend of eucalyptus and incense gives a mystical sensation I haven’t recalled since childhood, that strange scent of old artisan toy shops or the giants at village fairs. Don’t be alarmed; it doesn’t smell of wild forest. The eucalyptus provides freshness and the sweet notes make it easy to wear. It’s so addictive you can’t stop smelling it. The best part is the evolution: after two hours the eucalyptus fades and the incense becomes smokier, and by the end, between six and eight hours, it smells like cocoa powder. If you’re fleeing generic fragrances, this is for you.

I agree with @Brasidas, it’s a real gem from Reminiscence! Balsamic, complex, balanced and rare, plus it doesn’t let you down with the name Noir. The eucalyptus is perfect and the incense, which I’m not usually a fan of, really shines here and is interesting. The vanilla has just the right sweet touch without going overboard. Adding the price, which is a bargain… there’s nothing more to say, it’s fantastic!

Hello, what a fragrance, very mature! Not for children. At first it comes out green, eucalyptus-like, but then it becomes resinous, balsamic and woody. In the end it smells of smoke. Brutal quality for the price, although I don’t know if they’re still selling it. It smells 100% masculine, complex and not for everyone. I love it, but it lasts only half a day and isn’t for everyone.
