Spicy, woody, and slightly sweet.

The opening of a fragrance is important to me.. It sets the mood for what follows..

I did not like the opening at all. Almost unbearable. It’s not to my taste. Basically, what I can't stand is cumin, and that is what popped out the most on my skin. It also has a bit of an oriental feel. The orange blossom, which is a top note, is only slightly noticeable in the first few seconds after application.

After three hours, it sweetens up; benzoin comes into play, giving it a delicate vanilla note, and along with the many woods and the (soft) leather, it makes it interesting.

Neither my wife nor my daughter liked it. They found it repulsive.

Duration: About six hours on my skin; after six hours, it is not detectable.
Projection: None for an hour. After that, it comes close to the skin.
Solar group: Definitely not below 40-50.
Seasons: Winter (it’s a heavy and burdensome fragrance).
Conditions: I might see it with good attire and going out in an enclosed space. In an open space, I don’t know if it could survive (it doesn’t project.. and maybe it’s good that it doesn’t project).. I wouldn’t see it at work.
Gender: It’s masculine. Perhaps some women could pull it off.

Notes that escape the subjectivity of my evaluation.

1. It’s a heavy fragrance (not in terms of projection but as a fragrant body).
2. It’s definitely not for blind buying.
3. It’s luxury, and its price reflects that.
.............................................
In conclusion

+ Good quality oils
+ Beautiful bottle
+ Uniqueness regarding the aromatic profile.
+ It can easily become a signature scent
- Average duration and projection (on my skin)
- Difficult fragrance in terms of its use (where, when)
- Restrictive regarding the solar group
- Difficult fragrance regarding its structure. It has elements that some may not like.. It can even be off-putting for some.

* You can’t see it as a designer fragrance even if the production is on a large scale.. Design-wise, it’s more of a niche creation.

Unfortunately, it’s not to my taste.

It definitely has a place on the shelf of a collector or someone who enjoys buying fragrances and aims for something beyond a satisfactory collection. If on the other hand, you want a mass-appealing and versatile fragrance, it won’t work for you because simply put, I believe that’s not its purpose.

Fanatic of Pasha from the same house, I decided to try Declaration as well.
On my skin, it lasts about 7-8 hours, which is ideal in my opinion.
PERFECT!!! WORTH IT!!!

Very heavy scent, unfortunately I bought it based on reviews and without trying it. Scent for men over 55-60.
