In the style (even a clone) of the classic Yves Saint Laurent Opium. They saved on the bottle, and that's alright. For such a price, it's simply a gift!
Even one star would be too generous to rate this stinker. It reeks of incense and something else nasty and suffocating. None of the advertised components can be detected. I sprayed it once, ventilated the room for about an hour, and threw it away.
Where do I start? This coffee doesn't smell like coffee at all. At first, it had a scent of incense, but then, as the aroma unfolded, it started smelling like a Soviet cologne, and a masculine one at that. Overall, I do not recommend it!
I really liked the scent. It's often possible to come across such gems for a collection at a low price because the scent itself is vintage. The unfolding is wonderful, with spices, patchouli, vetiver, everything present at different stages. The execution of the bottle itself, however, is not great. It's made of flimsy plastic and looks cheap. But this is not a luxury category of fragrances, so it looks appropriate for its price. But the perfume itself is very worthy. A good representative of its time.
I didn't like it. I have come across this old-fashioned aldehydic accord in perfumes of a lower price range.
