I was eagerly waiting for this to arrive in the mail and finally, here it is! I have to give props to Zoha for massively stepping up their game and dabbing into EDP territory. Add to that the personalized card with signature and the high quality atomizer and labeling, this tells me that this is a product of hard work from perfume lovers, to perfume lovers. Now, as for the scent itself: the rose is stronger than the original and the lasting power is almost up to par as well. I'm patiently waiting for the "Noir" version of this (or "Absolu") where the rose is considerably dialed down and the oud & vanilla are the main players. Maybe a coffee note in there to roughen it up and make the rose a subtle, background accord? It will put the original and Montale's Intense Coffee to shame! Endless possibilities when it comes to this art form. Bravo guys, keep going!
