The take

What works

  • ●Oud, leather and smoky incense with a raspberry-rose twist that keeps it from going grim
  • ●Big projection and a magnetic-cap bottle that looks well above its price

Trade-offs

  • ●A lot of fragrance for a tight office or a packed elevator — save it for evenings
  • ●The animalic, smoky facets split the room: some read it as rich, some as too much
