XXI: Art Deco - Blonde Amber

An initially warm and spicy scent, where amber and dried fruits meet a subtle citrus note. This makes the opening feel warm, fruity, and simultaneously very high quality. Over time, it becomes softer and creamier. Tonka bean, vanilla, and floral notes blend with the warm amber, lending the fragrance a light sweetness without becoming overly heavy. The fruit does come across as somewhat synthetic—which you have to like—and the longevity could also be better. In and of itself, a very high-quality and characterful fragrance.

I tested it for the first time and it's really a great scent in itself, but unfortunately the performance is too weak for me.

Yes, the scent is very nicely crafted. Yes, it smells luxurious and high-quality. But in the end, that personally isn't enough to fully justify the high price. Especially when a fragrance fades significantly after about 4 hours and remains barely present even on clothing, an imbalance arises between the price and the actual performance.
