“This was somewhat of a surprise for a blind buy, as it is very similar (better performing and price) to one of my discontinued favorites, Calvin Klein Euphoria Amber Gold for Men. While the initial spray is a tad synthetic in the overall presentation, it does mature quite quickly and the synthetic smells dissipate. It is a very gourmand/sweet presentation, with some incense dirtying it up a little, and I even get a hint of amber coming from this even though it is not a listed note.The performance of this eau de parfum is quite phenomenal, especially considering the price of this fine concoction. It easily lasts for 8 hours with its initial intensity, and still performs beyond that as well. Sillage must be quite decent, as I have had this one have some people turn around and make a comment a good 10 feet behind me as we pass by each other. Projection is at a good 3-5 feet as well, and this is with two sprays on the sides of the neck and one for the wrists/elbow pits (what else do you call them? lol).I am so happy I found a better performing replacement for my now low Amber Gold, and I am quite curious as to what this 24 Hour cologne is like, if it is similar to Raghba! I would say it leans more masculine, because of the incense note, but it could still be pulled off by a lady. Think along the lines of Bogart Pour Homme, or Perry Ellis M, as they are in similar "Dirty Gourmand" categories in my mind :).”

“This comes highly recommended by many on YT as well as fragrantica. But the scent wasn’t my thing, not vanilla, not a great oud smell. Just doesn’t work for men or women. Maybes someone might like it and it may even grow on you or me. The biggest issue I have is you can’t return it because of the aerosol can that comes with. The aerosol scent doesn’t smell that bad actually. I’d have to pass on this scent, even considering the great value and recommendations.”
