Is this what its like to find YOUR scent?
Found my favorite fragrances that may even stop me from collecting (™️) these two Argos Bacio Immortale on the left and Prisma Amethyst on the right, here's my take on the two!
Argos - Bacio Immortale
Found a note I love in fragrances a couple months back, that being none other than leather, love or hate note for most lol, I lean on the love side. First frag in this realm was Montagne London, imitation of Widian London. Love at first sniff when I received a sample, still do love it, very fruity and nice leather but this was my entry to leather frags, then got a decant of Ombre Leather, great but don't get good longevity, ends up too leathery. Yada yada. Bacio Immortale is a different take on most leather frags, which is raspberry paired with leather, while this does have that, it opens with an added citrus, lemon peel, bergamot on the opening, that classic raspberry is still there and becomes more prominent in the dry down, where it calms down, more leather and raspberry and a hint of vanilla with some pepper, the dry down is where this beauty shines, complex but wonderfully down, you can really smell it change throughout the day which I LOVE. Just a beautiful scent to me, perfect for colder weather, maybe mid heat, it is a leather scent after all, but that citrus definitely helps if you're bold lol. 9/10, opening is a tad bit sharp, and projection isn't as good as I wished it was, eternal longevity though.
Prisma - Amethyst
God where do I start, while my collection isn't huge, I have a decent amount and none are comparable to this, the most perfect, juicy strawberry opening, strawberry, pear, and sugar. Such an addictive opening. Then starts to dry down and get more woody, vanilla, incense notes with that strawberry still very prominent, this is where it starts to turn masculine imo. Still just as addictive as the opening, zero flaws. Easily could wear this in any scenario, perfect signature and will be mine from now on. I love this so much and this surprised me as it wasn't on my radar at all, was a free sample from buying Topaz 11ml from them and so grateful for it because it really found my piece. 10/10, perfection. Amazing projection, longevity, sillage, it's PERFECT.
