In the opening, this fragrance smells quite woody, which I attribute to the sandalwood. After that, the beautiful Montale rose joins in, which, however, never stands out separately for me, but blends perfectly with the amber.

I would not want to miss him in the collection, as he is very pleasant to wear and fits for me to many occasions.

For me, it was a bit like love. Because that must also grow and is not 100% there at the beginning. Only after further tests I understood the fragrance a little better and got used to him. In the meantime, I like him very much. If you look at the fragrance pyramid, it suggests a sweet and spicy scent. This is definitely true. Although the huge wow effect in this fragrance honestly rather missing, he is still a pleasant flatterer, which I can wear all year round. (In summer rather in the evening) It must also not every fragrance always have a potential of Baccarat Rouge, the this one, for example, I could never wear every day, because it is just something very special.

Vanilla is also in the game and leather I smell only when I sniff directly on the skin. I'm glad about that, because in itself I like leather in fragrances - but if it stands out too much, that triggers me unfortunately more often headaches. So that's not a problem here.
