A great discovery!
As the name suggest, this scent is an olfactory delight that does not fear presumptuousness.
A niche oudy version of La nuit de l’homme by YSL and definitely in my future buy list.

A stunning crowd stopper of a perfume, this one which means arrogant, overconfident, or prideful person is all that and more. It has a bravado very rarely seen in modern perfumery, but remains so utterly wearable. The perfume opens in a spicy smoky cloud of ginger, nutmeg, cardamom and tobacco. As it begins to settle, a heart of olibanum and rose emerges. Finally upon complete settling, a powdery woody base of patchouli and oud remains with the tobacco and spice hovering in the background. Harkens back to the good old vintage days of heavily perfumed suited men smoking their cigars. The fragrance is beautifully blended, and has a very “formal” wearability (it quietens a lot upon settling) even though it has strong sillage, projection and lasts forever. If you like Black Afgano, you are going to fall in love with this dreamy and heady concoction of a fragrance. Be prepared to stop trains though. Enjoy!

The opening is mostly tobacco with olibanum and ginger. When the tobacco fades, this leans more unisex for me. The oud is present with a light touch, thankfully it never goes medicinal. Good longevity and workable projection, it won’t clear a room but its detectable within a few feet.
I bought HDP samples for all three of the new releases. Working my way through them, this is the first I’ve worn. I like it.

This perfume from the new line HDP and after testing this perfume many times, I bought the whole collection including this perfume which I like out of 3, it’s very classy and there is a kind of lavender note hidden here and the twisted idea of the base note was fantastic because the composition of oud and tobacco along with patchouli touch it makes it fit for the whole day and its pleasant perfume which can make you smile everytime you sniff it.
overall 9/10.

Wearable, mysterious, soapy and subtle. Feeling of privacy and ancient luxury. A little historical. Like a walk down stone streets with spice merchants and temples. Not a big fragrance, but a slow burn. I think it is a good transitional fragrance from winter to spring since it feels lighter and cleaner than its fellow irreverent, which is more resinous, smoky and is great when draped in wool. I can wear a jacket in outrecuidant. My jacket is brocade and goes well with black denim and a t-shirt. Passers-by might notice soap, but my shroud is lush spices and dusty roads.
