  1. First time trying niche: woods, resins, herbs, and oriental notes. Just bought it, will update you later on how I feel. I absolutely love it, great value!

    I don’t see it as a feminine fragrance; a man would wear it perfectly. Its dry-down is one of the most extraordinary I’ve encountered, truly brilliant.
