Remember that frags work differently from person to person as nobody's Ph levels are the same and also natural body oils, plus hot/dry/moist/sweaty skin decide on longevity. I remember having to respray XS with 5-6 sprays every 2-3 hours back in 1996 and this is already doubling the time it lasted back then with way less sprays.

Besides their unique scent, Bentley perfumes are also exceptional in design, featuring clean, elegant lines to match the legendary Bentley cars.

More by way of, "this is a sophisticated, layered fragrance that smells woody and smoky with some sweetness at the top" type of feels. This is, quite literally, the 1996 formulation of "Paco Rabanne - XS" that came in the clear glass bottle with flip-top. I was looking for something that doesn't grap as much attention as Sauvage and something more office friendly. Designing an object for a strong brand such Bentley need a clear vision and a knowledge of the DNA to make it properly.

Smells great and I would recommend it to you if you want to add a relatively cheap, versatile fragrance to your collection. It actually reminds me of Paco Rabanne Pour Homme on the drydown, but is much more sophisticated as it is floral and not oakmossy. Perfumes are often designed with top, middle and base notes, and designed to smell different based on the time after application. I'm relatively new to perfume and have covid nose but I have no idea what people are talking about when they say this is generic or smells like everything else.This is very well done, but I'm not surprised because Lalique owns this brand and Lalique makes excellent juice! I can't wai tto see what this dries down to for the end stage, but I will be asleep by the time that hits tonight.
