It has been a month and the longevity of the fragrance has increased to almost two hours. I'm extremely happy about this and have ordered another bottle. Hopefully, it will mature even more over the year. Maybe it will last longer, but the current longevity is satisfactory for me. Yes, I read an opinion on the website claiming it is a fake. I disagree. I visited the manufacturer's official website, read reviews, carefully compared photos and descriptions, and came to the conclusion that the person was mistaken. It's not as straightforward as it seems - yes, all fragrances have longevity issues, but if you don't aim to kill everything within a one-kilometer radius and just want to treat yourself, then these fragrances are for you! Don't rush to jump to conclusions.
Oh, how wonderful, delicious, absolutely gourmet it is! It creates a feeling of celebration right after the first inhale. All notes are distinguishable and at the same time intertwined with each other. It's delightful! But, as always, there is one big BUT. This magic lasts for 20, maybe 30 minutes. Then the scent starts to fade and after an hour, it's not even noticeable on the application spot. I conducted an experiment - I soaked a household t-shirt with it - it couldn't be detected even when standing next to it. The next day, the t-shirt emitted a barely noticeable, but astonishing aroma. So, everyone has to make their own conclusion - to buy or not to buy... But oh, how I love it!
