  Finally tried Es Exquisita, and without a doubt, among those I’ve tested from Mancera and Creed Boise to Club de Nuit and Zara Vibrant, this has taken a step up within the exclusive and aphrodisiac category. It’s the most potent, leads in longevity and Italian quality; I’d say it’s even improved upon the same Creed Aventus. The issue is its price, which is limited for some budgets. What’s strange is that Creed or Mancera don’t have that monstrous longevity everyone thinks they do, yet they offer great quality; Venetian Blue Intense from the Venetian Merchant did fulfil all those obligations, being a quality concentrated EDP with evolution, longevity, and price, I’d say more within reach than Creed. The Italians certainly know how to make good things; let’s hope prices don’t go through the clouds or it will lose its charm.

  My first full niche fragrance purchase, to be honest, a blind buy. I got it for just over $110, planning to use it in summer. The presentation is top-tier: sturdy packaging, a beautiful map, and an excellent bottle with caps. Regarding the scent, I thought I’d encounter something extremely fruity based on the reviews, but that’s not the case. At first, it feels like patchouli, burnt or very green, perhaps due to the pepper; I believe the spices are the main feature in VBI; this facet lasts for most of its duration. After one or two hours, it becomes more woody, with a hint of moss and a slightly aquatic sensation; by the end, a fruity smell is perceived but extremely dry, as the pepper remains. Longevity is about 8 to 10 hours, it projects well, and has good balance in the trail. I don’t see it as very youthful; it’s more formal. The fruity facet isn’t what I expected and it’s not very summery given the predominance of spices, patchouli, and woods; I barely notice citrus or freshness. It’s a dark, dense, and complex perfume. The purchase was worth it, but I don’t think I’ll repurchase.

  My first full niche fragrance purchase, a blind buy for around $110 that I intended to wear in summer. The packaging is top-notch: sturdy, with a beautiful map and excellent bottle and caps. The scent wasn’t what I expected from the reviews; initially, it smells like burnt or very green patchouli, perhaps due to the pepper, which is what stands out most. This facet lasts for most of the duration; after two hours, something more woody appears with a touch of moss and an aquatic sensation. By the end, the fruity notes are very dry because the pepper is still there. It lasts about 8 to 10 hours, projects well, and has good balance in the trail. I don’t see it as youthful or summery; it’s more formal, dark, dense, and complex. The purchase was worth it, but I don’t think I’ll repurchase.

  Total synthetic bomb. For me, it’s a no. It smells good, yes, but nothing more.

  It opens with that classic pineapple blue and freshness, but as it dries down it turns spicy, enveloping, and even tar-like. It’s dark and leathery, with nothing automotive about it, but rather spicy; it reminds me of Aragonese black olive pâté in contact with the skin. Beneath all this, the aquatic and fresh notes remain, held up by that birch-moss which seems to be conducting the orchestra.

  This starts, at first glance, like a classic blue, with its pineapple, freshness, and everything. Then it dries down into something more spicy, enveloping, voluptuous, and tar-like. It’s a dark leathery scent but nothing automotive, rather spicy. It makes me think of Aragonese black olive pâté, especially in contact with the skin. Well below, aquatic and fresh notes remain, a nuance that doesn’t disappear, but I think the pseudo-leather birch-moss is the one conducting the orchestra here.
