Le Male Essence De Parfum

Decided to grab this one as it's now been reformulated. They even changed the colour of the juice from purple to blue and they changed the colour of the can from copper to silver. Found this original one at Maximum Fragrance. I've always liked this flanker just haven't gotten around to grabbing till now. This is a gorgeous fragrance. A mature version to the original IMO. In the opening I get that blast of cardamom which is pretty much the dominant note. I do get some pepper but it's not very strong. As it starts to dry down the leather and lavender starts to become noticeable with the cardamom still taking the lead. Don't get much cinnamon and sage. As it completely dries down the vanilla and amberwood comes out, with the cardamom still being dominant. Performance is pretty decent as I got about 8 hours on my skin with a couple of hours of projection. IMO this would be a great date night or for casual settings. 👌🏼
