FLORAL ABSOLUTE

bought some samples a couple weeks back and been going through them as and when I can..

Floral absolute

At first i sprayed a quick small spray on my hand and went about my day.. immediately I knew this was a powerhouse fragrance.itnprojects like a monster. I thought it was maybe a bit too feminine for my personal liking and stupidly dismissed it as something not for me..
I returned to it the other day and put some on before nightshift at work..I thought to myself well I'll be sitting at my machine and I can give it another shot and if I don't like it then it's fine,I'll be at work and doesn't matter.input it on around 5pm and set off to work at 6pm..in the car in the drive there it was still projecting big time..I got to work and a few of the lads walked passed me about 10 yards away and one turned back and asked what I was wearing so I told him and he said it smelled lovely..anyway a few hours in I started to get a deja vu moment..I remember this from somewhere..it then clicked on me..This smells extremely similar to Tom Ford Soleil Blanc..once the florals stop dominating this lovely creamy silky smooth lactonic smells comes through.. beautiful..tonka bean and coconut.. transporting me to some sandy beach enjoying the holiday sun..that sun lotion type scent but in a nice way..This is absolutely stunning 13 hours later it was almost as strong as when i first put it on.. possibly the strongest longest lasting fragrance I own..100% worth owning..even for a male if you think this may be to feminine it will work layering with something else .

Wore this again for work today.. This is absolutely gorgeous and one of the best if not the best bang for your buck fragrance, especially for summer..the first time I tested it I thought it was maybe edging too feminine. The second time I give it a full wearing and eventually realized what this reminded me of.. Soleil Blanc..summer in a bottle 🌅
It opens up with nice florals and bergamot.jasmin and pistachio are in the background supporting those florals and the vanilla and amber give a nice sun lotion creaminess to the blend..it's definitely unisex..this easily lasted my whole 12 hour shift in a hot factory and then some..this is a beast... despite it's beast mode status this doesn't become cloying or headache inducing.. actually the opposite..it somehow just magically sits on you smelling amazing giving whaffs all day without that annoyance of being overbearing.I promise if you want a soleil blanc type fragrance but better and longer lasting for much cheaper this is it..thank me later..I have many samples from this house and I can't emphasize just how great they are .so far I've found 4 I'm in love with .
