Keepers
of Emotion
After being massively impressed with Zino after tying it in the sample pack, I decided to blind buy Zeus based purely on the description of the notes as they appeared to be in line with my tastes.
Sadly, I am not so enamoured with Zeus. To my nose it has a strong urine scent and I cannot get past this. Without mentioning this, I asked a few friends what they thought about the fragrance and they all mentioned the smell of urine.
As a final point, I like fragrances that have longevity, to at least get through a long day. After applying a very small spray of Zeus on my wrist, I could still smell it strongly three days later, after six showers and numerous hand washes. It was so persistent that I couldn't wear any other fragrances until the end of day four. It is really far too strong to wear if one intends to wear different fragrances on the following days.
I absolutely love Zino, it's my most worn late autumn and winter scent. Unfortunately, Zeus has been a disappointment.
The fragrance is just beautiful, so unique. The necklace is perfect. I am extremely impressed with both.
Absolutely gorgeous scent! I can't wait for the cooler weather to come around in order to wear this every day!
Honestly one of the most interesting fragrances I've tried this year. Honey and tobacco together is the most addictive combination. A whisper of white florals that keeps it from going too dark. Works beautifully in warm weather, I was worried it would be too heavy. Pulled it out for a business trip, got compliments in the hotel bar. Highly recommend sampling before committing, but I'm glad I did.
The bottle alone made me curious, the juice sealed it. Woody base is clean and structured. The cinnamon is warm, not that red-hots kind. Scent lasts all day on my skin without needing a reapplication. Pulled it out for a business trip, got compliments in the hotel bar. Sits somewhere between the darker Amouages and the more refined Roja stuff. Going back for the bigger size.
