Such a bright, happy, smooth, sunny, and effervescent perfume that I was won over. How could I not own something like this for $45?
If I had to compare, Cedrat Bois Intense has the same sparkling-water tingliness and smoothness to the nose as a Malfy Gin.
Cedrat Boise Intense was a keeper since I haven't had a perfume besides the other 2 (MDCI, Ajmal) that had people audibly sniffing and walking towards my direction. LOL! Once again however, everyone's skin performs differently (mine amplifies balsams and citruses hence Creed is a no-go for me.) However, Hacivat X by Nishane might be the best for you. Even a Bond No 9 Rose-Oud combo. Either way, who nose.
Thanks to all the compliments I've received IRL, Mancera is now a signature scent for me alongside that Ajmal, and MDCI. Once again, if I had the money, I would get Roja's Midsummer Dream-- whereas Mancera's is one-or-two note, that perfume transforms in the skin like a 5 course meal. In the meantime, for $45, I will gift this to my friends and myself. Highly recommended
