As soon as I smelled this the strong, soapiness of the Cloves, Vetiver and Oakmoss immediately reminded me of Perry Ellis Portfolio Elite. Franck Olivier Eau De Passion Intense has much better ingredients but as Chypres go the opening is still too strong and almost pungent for my taste.
That said, whenever I get a new fragrance I always give it a decent testing. I decided to wear this today (a second wearing) and this time I am starting to appreciate it better.
After 1 hour the soapiness drops back slightly to allow the other ingredients to step forward and take the limelight. This is by no means a niche fragrance but with it being EDP concentrate its strength is clearly evident.
The scent trail is the most appealing aspect to this fragrance. Each time you catch it you notice something slightly different…..dry citrus (Orange, Lemon, Bergamot)….then Mint which seems to sit on top of the Cloves. Then there is this masculine spiciness in the base that I guess must be the Cloves meeting the Oakmoss and Vetiver. This is what holds on to the hint of old school barber shop spicy, soapiness to my nose but alongside the other ingredients (Citruses, Mint, Amber) it remains more up to date and also avoids falling into any particular season. I could see myself wearing this anytime of the year although it is definitely a daytime scent – not for romantic settings or clubbing. Better for office or smart casual occasions.
Soapy scents usually send me running in the opposite direction but Eau De Passion Intense is an exception. Yes it is soapy but has other qualities besides. On the whole I do like it and will keep my 75ml bottle – which, I hasten to add I snapped up for under £20. Baaaargain. :o)
