Its sheet names evening and formal, and nothing else: no daytime, no everyday wear. Eight hours on the skin, throw of six — two or three sprays will not spill over, but they belong where people come close. Against Smoke Show, same house, same cold months and the same eight hours, this one throws less and leans more plainly masculine, 78 against 65. Pistachio and its gourmand accord at 46 sit far behind wood at 86 and oud at 74: anyone expecting something edible has the wrong bottle.

Not rated yet — be the firstAldehydes and saffron give a metallic start, then pistachio and driftwood take over the heart. Oud, cypriol, ambergris and vetiver close on a very dry base, smoky and with nothing sweet left in it.
