Hello everyone,
do we have here with the
Fall of Phaeton the next cracker of the house?
Possibly yes, but before I give you my conclusion, I would like to tell you 1 or 2 things about the fragrance.
It starts very citrusy (almost fresh)) with the ginger in combination it almost reminds me of my old favorite, the
Uden Overdose! Then the labdanum with the lavender comes around the corner quite quickly and creates a very subtle fougere touch, but the lavender tends to stay in the second row.
The oud and the leather listed here are for me (!) only marginal phenomena that say "ey, I'm here..., here I am!" but I think they are only the basic framework to create the really decent performance, among other things.
In my opinion, the real STAR of this fragrance is the drydown. If you like or love vanilla, then the drydown will be your absolute DREAM. The mix of the vanilla - tonka with the well-known (fluffy soft) Argos musk is really "to nibble on"!
If you want and are looking for something like this - then take the
Fall of Phaeton ,
BUT before you buy the BLIND, please test it!
About the performance:
Good to very good... (each)
How is it received?
My tests so far (several) have been very positive and so far I've only received really nice feedback!
When would I recommend it?
Exactly like the
Triumph of Bacchus Extrait de Parfum from September to May!
Conclusion:
Argos may have come up with another "little cracker" here, but at a price of just under 270€ you should test it. However, if you like something like this with vanilla, a great development, a very good performance, a really great bottle..., then I can recommend it!
And where would I recommend it?
Almost really everywhere, but especially at work I would dose it discreetly, because it's really loud + noticeably strong. Especially the vanilla - tonka - musk! But especially on a date, I think it's really great. This fragrance will always go down very well ;). (But don't overdo it either)
And finally, something about the bottle, the sprayer, the lid and the box! You can think what you want about the company (as with everyone), but you have to admit one thing - the bottles (with the lid) are an eye-catcher and as far as the point is concerned I can only give a true (!) 10 out of 10. I really can't help anyone who gives this an 8 or lower. We are noticeably and visibly in the absolute high-end range here...
And now, almost finally, to the point about the "dear price", let me put it this way: if we say we have a certain desire for luxury products / fragrance products in the niche sector, then I find it difficult or quite honestly almost pointless to chalk this up as something negative. Nobody is forcing us to spend this money. If you ask me now: Benny is it worth it? Then I say, if you want to spend it, test it and then buy it, but I recommend everyone to test it! You just have to experience it - the art of what is / can be possible.
If I really wasn't convinced, I wouldn't recommend it to you!
And now have a nice day/evening, or whatever you read this review, LG the Benny
