“First, I was disappointed with shipping but that doesn't factor into the review. Eventually the product arrived nicely packaged but was afraid it was leaking when I opened it up. Not the case though.The fragrance itself is intriguing to say the least. So much so that it's almost like you wear it just to understand it. Then when you feel you've gotten that understanding, you begin to critique the other elements. The sillage of this fragrance is lacking but that doesn't disqualify it from making the rotation. The longevity however, makes it questionable. I get maybe 3 hours out of it...that's not good considering this is supposed to be an EDP. The price point for the bottle size is almost unrealistic considering the overall outlook, which makes it a very safe blind buy. I'd recommend this to someone who is not as into fragrances as I am but want to elevate without the splurge that it sometimes takes. As an owner of many high end colognes and a few customs, this helps keep my every day smell cost to a minimum while saving the better stuff for the moments I want to make an impression. This will also work for a close encounter night out with the lady friend.”
