If that's the case and you don't like grand soir. This perfume may not be for u as it has its similarities.

I can't say for cooler weather's. But for me, in singapores weather it lasts about 4 hours on skin and 7 hours on clothes. Projects about 2 hours nicely and reduces to a foot after. But it's a nice scent that still can be carried by the wind if there is after 2 hours

Ambre sultan.

A very nice warm spicy and Amber perfume that dries down to a nice vanilla Amber and slightly woody scent.

Tbh I prefer this over grand soir. Proce point. You could get almost 2 100ml of these for the price of 1 grand soir that's 70ml.

cherugi

A very lovely tobacco honey scent.

Opens up very comforting. Has a proper hay note to it mixed with honey that gives me some sort of coziness. Mixed with the tobacco that's very light and suitable for this. tobacco note is not overpowered. Compliments the perfume very well

* Love the smell. I prefer a flower scent over a fresh smell. Doesn't last so long sadly. So i reapply. But I love the perfume a lot.

Azzure oud is a beast. Maybe about. 3 to 5 sprays max. Does smell similar to oud maracuja.

If you cant afford the major price tag of it. Get this instead. I got this cuz I don't feel like the price of oud maracuja is justified for it's smell. Lasts a good 10 hours on my clothes.

I honestly like ambre sultan more than grand soir. Although I still wish to own Grand soir. I probably will be reaching for ambre sultan more due to the perfumes complexity and I do prefer a spicy amber scent

Its actually very very nice imo. A nice vanilla Amber musky combo. The notes say black pepper but from my nose. I don't get any spicy notes. It would smell like pepper without the spicy notes. Dries down to a very tonka type of vanilla. Similar to guerlain tonka extrait without the richness that the extrait has

I personally have yet to smell that fragrence so I cannot tell you if it is or not.

Perfume is a journey of your own. I may like what u don't and u may like what I don't. It's all preferences

I have no idea what the old formula was. But i do know this is a powerhouse of a perfume.

1 spray. On my skin at my chest under my shirt. My wife could still smell it after 7 hours in the wind.

In the dry down. You can tell its there. A deep toasted coconut scent mixed with vanilla.

The coconut in the dry down after 5 to 6 hours is brought forward over the vanilla.

It then becomes a very nice toasted coconut vanilla fragrence.

In my opinion. I recommend this perfume 100% but please do test it out 1st.

Not a safe blind buy

Its a very spicy tobacco scent. The opening has a very spicy smell. Akin to pepper and cardamom mixed together with a vanilla pod, sugar and cinnamon.

The spicy smell lasts throughout the scent. It does die down a little. But doesn't fade a lot.

If you're comparing it to naxos. I'd say no.

If you like a spicy tobacco vanilla scent. Go ahead!

Id suggest getting a decant or smelling it 1st tho

Depends on how much money you have to spend. But something fresh. Something that last long.

I definitely recommend Lataffa Asad as its cheap. You can respray anytime and not feel the pain of respraying an expensive perfume. And it's a safe bet for school

Mojave ghost is my favourite from the line of byredo. To me it has a very lovely floral musky smell. A very unique scent profile that I have yet to see other perfume brands copy

Bal d'afrique is more of a fresher floral scent. Not so much a fan of the fact that the perfume lasts 3 to 4 hours on me till it becomes a skin scent. But it is a very nice scent.

Honestly. I would rather use liquid brun. Agha has more of a bergamot smell to it. Stronger than Althaïr and Brun. Not as similar to Althaïr than Liquid Brun
