This is the definition of safe but also boring.

This opens similar to Imagination and ends up almost the same as YSL Y EdP.

The backbone of this is masculine cleanliness, with a touch more formality than Imagination and a tiny bit more interesting than YSL Y. It hits your nose in a spicy way because it is VERY PEPPERY, but it quickly goes away and resembles clean laundry.

This paints a picture of that one office boss that's always very well put, sharp dressed and has a very neutral attitude, you can't quite pinpoint his sexuality but there's rumours that he's gay tho. And that's a huge compliment to this BUT this perfume, even tho PdM has a VERY HIGH quality, is just not interesting at all for me.

My nose mostly perceives some ambiguous citrus but also a lot of pepper in the opening which then slowly transforms into a clean laundry type of scent, has a slight muskyness and also an apple-y slightly sweet ambrocenidic dry-down that is what resembles YSL Y so much.

Occasions is just your regular day to day, office, work, running errands kind of thing, nothing worth paying 350 dlls for IMO.

I'd personally give this a 3/10 only valuable thing is the fact that it is NOT unpleasant, but it ends up smelling exactly the same as Armaf's Odyssey Mega in the dry-down, which is a huge bummer cus you can get that one for like 20 bucks at Jomashop. I also got a review of that one in my profile if you're interested 🙌

So to sum it all up, it's not bad, but it's nothing new, also nothing makes it worth the price IMO, you can get this for a much cheaper, wasn't expecting much since PdM mostly makes high quality dupes and not really anything original.
