Another gem from Swiss perfumer Andy Tauer. Cypriol, tobacco, vanilla, tonka, patchouli, rose, and sandalwood make this fragrance a sweet and spicy experience. Tauer perfumes typically last for 8 hours. The sillage is more subtle than, for example, his “desert fragrances.” However, this makes it significantly lighter and therefore a fragrance for everyday wear.

I had tried this sample earlier last year and really enjoyed and had the opportunity to convert it to Bottle status. I hand't had the opportunity to work it into rotation as I was inundated (by my own hand) with other samples. But I wanted to get back into my bottles for a bit. This one started off a bit spicy and dare I say Peppery? (not sure if that's a thing), but it immediacy softens into more of the wood and warm spicy side. It's been on for a few hours now and the projection is not a bold as it starts out, but is still pretty good, and if you go looking for it it's still here. Great for an office day! Happy Monday everyone!!
