Today I a running around taking care of some errands but wanted to wear something different. The opening is a sweet and slightly spicy scent. At 15 minutes, the scent is still sweet and has not changed significantly since the initial spray. 30 minutes in I am starting to pick up the fruity and floral notes from the Apple Blossom and can also detect some of the powdery accord from the Orris Root. At 60 minutes into the wear, the fragrance is quite linear and has not changes much since the initial spray. The dry down of this fragrance is somewhat sweet and creamy with some woody notes lingering in the background. Performance of this fragrance is moderate as I am getting 4 to 5 hours of longevity on my skin. The projection at the beginning of the wear is good with a scent bubble of about 2 feet for about 90 minutes. Sillage is also good with a scent trail of about 3 feet for about 90 minutes as well.

This is Dua's version of JPG Le Male Elixir, which I own and love. I have had this for about 6 mos or so. This opens with a bit more mint, but in about 5 minutes these fall right in line, nearly indistinguishable in the air and you really need to have them side by side and go back and forth to detect the difference, which ain't happening in the real world. I need to be clear, I LOVE Le Male Elixir, probably place in my top 10, but I dunno if would buy again if this one is still available. Who knows, I got about 200 frags so by that time it will be 10-15 yrs later😂
