This is a classic masculine scent according to my nose. Regal, classy and manly with the air of previous era. It’s not dated or old school but it has a vintage masculine vibe.

But especially this
Narciso Rodriguez Narciso Rodriguez for Him Bleu Noir
You will probably like this Carner scent. The vibe is the same as in this Narciso but only deeper, richer and more complex.
This scent either contains cumin and cardamom or a symohony of other notes which give this feeling. I’d say that it is similar to Bleu Noir by Narciso Rodriguez like a bigger & richer brother. It also has a shortlived BO feeling. Dominant notes according my nose : leather, tobacco, sage, traces of osmanthus, cumin, cardamom, vetiver. Before it dies, it smells like dirty vanilla.
Performance is moderate. Suitable for spring/fall and early summer.
Update
Today I tried it again. The composition is beautiful but it gives me a BO smell from time to time which is bad. I do like it but the BO smell is very disturbing for my nose.

Strong leather, tobacco and after drydown sage. Not bad, definitely masculine. Kind of harsh though, sillage and longevity ok but nothing great. I’m not a big fan of sage. Received as a sample but for the price of a full bottle, I think I’ll pass.

Clary sage, suede, balsam, patchouli, oakmoss, and dirty vetiver. Earthy bittery and overly sour. I can detect some ebony wood in here as well.
it wasn’t a good blend actually with that salty effect, and that huge doses of clary sage. Nah.

The tobacco note is more in the ashtray side and the leather is harsh, but has a certain masculine charm.

The Sandor was an iconic trendy bar in Barcelona of the 70’s where people were going to see and be seen. People smoked and flirted sitting on aristocratic leather armchairs.
This fragrance recalls the aromas of the 70 under three odoriferous agreements:
One of suede, another of tobacco and finally one of leather of Spain.
Open a fresh bergamot already attached to the floral notes to the old school under an achiprado background of patchouli with oakmoss. The tobacco smoke that is felt from the beginning remains in the background with the aroma of a spectacular tanned leather, flowery and dry.
From the opening and even the middle notes, everything transmits an incredible energy that teletransports you in time to those aromas of the decade, is ingenious, full of light and magnetism.
After drying, the fragrance begins to lose that magnetic attraction to the detriment of a kind of smoke of an incense tobacco that loses and loses in tenacity until it stays very close to skin and at the same time it makes you return from that dream seven, opacandolo everything .
In summary, a really good start, with a not so good drying that leaves you a little “desole” to be able to consider Sandor a masterpiece. With another drying it would have been better !!
Rating: 7.5

I am not a lover of leather but I can say that in this way I could wear it. But I have similar gems on my shelf.Too expensive,yes.

Had the chance to smell it on a paper strip and immediately reminded me of Herod. More grown-up and possibly more deep and complex.
I’ll try to sample it. Too bad is that expensive.
