The leather note was originally created to imitate the smell of the Russian leather used to make hussars' boots. Every iteration of Fahrenheit has a burning impulse to be unique, to stand out from everyone and everything, even from Fahrenheit itself. It was only after an early-afternoon cigarette that I re-applied, and it stuck with me - even after I could no longer detect it, I was complimented by a stylish middle-aged lady. Overall, a good exercise on the violet leaf theme and the gourmand needs in perfumary nowadays but nothing to celebrate or to be remembered afterwards. I have it sitting on my drawer (in my cabinet where I keepsake my fragrances away from heat and sun) for a few months and as I was going to rest I thought of using it just before sleep.

The fragrance dons a vibrant and sensual accord, featuring violet and leather accents enhanced with Bourbon vanilla absolute. I also get a big dose of the signature violet leaf/gasoline smell that Fahrenheit is known for, but much more dialed back than the OG Fahrenheit. The leather note was originally created to imitate the smell of the Russian leather used to make hussars’ boots . Full disclosure, I am very rarely a fan of powdery notes in anything, so you may have a better experience with it if you are.Apply the Dior Fahrenheit Parfum spray to your pulse points, such as your wrists and neck, to allow the fragrance to develop and linger. i was comparing some perfumes like Naxos, Herod, TF Noir Extreme Parfum to Fahrenheit Parfum and can say that Fahrenheit is the most long lasting and noticeable, but this base note is making it not so sexy and pleasant. Reading the recent reviews of Fahrenheit Parfum below mine, I wonder if we’re smelling the same fragrance. I get all the principle components yet find the sum total to be a lot more contentious than the masculine beauty others describe.

I did however put this "unisex leaning more male" as I see confident, strong, females who wear black leather jackets, ride bikes, and kick ass in bars wear this. Dry down is where it truly shines, as once again that boozy, bourbon vanilla smell that Fahrenheit Parfum is seemingly known for, is smoothly introduced over time and sticks to your skin like glitter, even after 2 full sprays on my forearm.Soon after the opening blast of gas, suede, and rum, you start to get the spices: toasty cumin, semi-floral coriander, and a bit of bitter licorice. Anyways, enough about comparing this to other flankers or Sauvage Elixir, this is fantastic and I think almost anybody could get into a fragrance like this. Everything kind of blends into a really upscale and sophisticaed - almost classy masculine - scent dna.

Radiating from the bottle itself was nothing less than a scent tease, and having been pleasantly surprised with my previous purchase of Sauvage Elixir the year prior, this had competition.On the days I wouldn’t wear this fragrance (high heat/ rain) I make sure to smell the cap before heading out because it’s command is just that strong.
