    I wasn't intrigued by this fragrance until I watched your review, now I'll need to find a decant! Thank you, as always.

      Good luck Chis, and a decant is probably the best way to enjoy this fragrance. Its very strong. I really enjoyed the high quality of the notes used here.

    The overripe fruit wouldn’t be Castoreum, which is a leathery scent that lasts and lasts. More likely a “tropical” fruit note used. I’ve gotten that overripe smell sometimes when I’ve used Tropicfruit (a Givaudan product). The fact that it goes away after an hour makes me believe it’s a more volatile fruit material

    • @ACSmellsGood
      @ACSmellsGood  6 днів тому +1

      Castorium can give off the overripe smell depending on the associated notes. I know people mostly associate Civet with a urine like smell but I have a 1 ml semi solid liquid of castorium and if i smell it from a distance which is advised it gives off this overripe fruity smell with amazing warmth but its a very complex and strong note.
      Best way to test and train your nose is to dilute it in alcohol and train your nose on a tiny drop from a blotter and then you start to get this floral fruity sour and complex beguiling scent.

    Great review again buddy! I got a sample of Opus VI for my mom as we enjoy amber scents...u recommended it in an old Diwali video I think...boy every time she wore it the trail she left just left everyone dazed.
    I really wanted to get a bottle for myself but as you correctly said the price point is astronomical for the peasantry.
    Anyway, that incense, amber and sandalwood note was of the highest quality...I could almost touch it.

    • @ACSmellsGood
      @ACSmellsGood  6 днів тому +2

      Thank you :). I am so glad you experienced Opus VI the way you did, it really leaves a mesmerizing trail and I just love the complexity of Opus VI. Will review it soon.
      If you really like Sandalwood and Iris, try this one buddy, Next Level stuff.

    Hello Ac👋
    It would be very nice if you would test the reformulated version of this perfume, I really like perfumes with iris and I would like to hear what the difference is, whether it is destroyed, because you say that it has too strong a performance considering that Iris is a perfume, before I buy it and is it worth taking at all.
