  It’s a cheap fragrance with performance matching its price, so there’s not much to add beyond the fact that it’s like Le Male, but more woody and with a spicy touch. On my skin, it lasted about five hours, always staying very close to the skin. They say sometimes what we least expect surprises us, so I bought it blind, but it disappointed me. Well, what can you expect for $14.99? Remember that good things never come cheap.

  I’ve worn it for three years and got so used to it that I hadn’t reviewed it. It’s a humble, honest fragrance, almost gift-like, offering a pleasant spicy woody oriental with little more complexity than a touch of vanilla. On the skin, it smells like freshly removed pencil shavings. Some compare it to Gucci Envy, but I see no similarity. Its performance is below average but acceptable. The trail is discreet and lasts about five hours. Ideal for relaxing in autumn and winter or simply wearing at home for the pleasure of smelling it. As calm and peaceful as a lit fireplace.

  Meets its price point. Not a bombshell, but certainly not annoying. Smells of sweet vanilla, sandalwood, and a hint of incense. I expected a real Norwegian forest, but this smells more like a Murakami novel or a Beatles song than Nordic nature. Edit: I’ve finished it because I miss it. Bofifa says it smells like pencil shavings and he’s absolutely right; that’s the main note. I finished it for my own pleasure; it reminds me of Jovan White Musk, equally clean or even cleaner, and gives a sensation of softening the skin. I miss it and would buy it again… but where?
