I have worn it for years. It is an evening and winter day fragrance for me. I will never get over how perfect it is. Definitely can be worn by men. On a really cold winter's day ... this is amazing. AND yes!! ...it makes you feel special. Brilliant review. xxx
I just ordered this and it's beautiful as I expected. I have owned the oil perfumery brand oil of this scent, and now smelling the real thing, I have to say the oil perfumery dupe is amazing. Today I'm wearing the real POAL, the oil perfumery one, and Ebony Wood by Zara. Nice video btw :)
My most worn, complimented, favourite perfume ever. I use it all year round and feel very feminine when using it (not soft feminine more strong classy feminine). It also became my best friend's favourite (for himself) and it smells very manly on him so I guess it's that type of perfume that adapts easily to seasons and body chemistries, in my opinion obviously 😏
great video! what you said resonate with me, like when you said you feel like you wear a piece of art when wearing this. I’ve only sampled this as it’s so pricey to get a full bottle, but plan on buying it sometime in the future…
Thanks for sharing your thoughts about it. I am thinking to buy this one (though I'm not much into any 'unisex' scent, still 'Portrait of a Lady' is on my wishlist !), so was searching for an honest review.🤭
I feel the same about when to wear PoaL. I also enjoy wearing it for special occasions, I recently wore it for my birthday party, also NYE last year and christmas eve the year before. Generally I don't like powerful scents like this for work. I don't think it is super feminine. Especially the dry down with patchouly and incense (I think) makes it quite genderless. If I recall correctly it has the same base as Geranium Pour Monsieur, which I also love. One scent that I quite like but that seems a tad "feminine" for me to wear it is Jasmine et Cigarette by ELdO. I think if one is comfortable in his/her own skin, they can wear whatever they want and nobody will even notice if something is marketed towards the opposite sex. The only exlusion might be super popular scents that people will recognize. Anyway, I am rambling here...
Thanks for sharing. I'll have to check out Cigarette by ELdO! I have video coming at some point on Une Rose, another interesting one from a man's perpspective....
I love this fragrance. The incense and musk come out pretty strong on my skin, almost reminding me out Kilian Incense Oud strangely, but that’s a good thing bc I love that fragrance too and it’s discontinued. This and Musc Rav are my top two and they couldn’t be more different from each other
first impressions are crucial and i dont want to be too fruity. I like masculine, musk and dark with hint of sweetness. I hope this does it cuz i bought 100ml😂
