About this deal

I only wish the spices were more present, which, in my estimation, would enhance the power and seduction of the composition. Déclaration d'un Soir, a new fragrance for men, reprises the cold spices of the original, thanks to perfumer Mathilde Laurent's idea of not messing with something good but going for a much more subversive interpretation in men's fragrance. Backed by synthetics the roses intense, stops strangers in their way, just to take a little sniff of the ripples it creates in the air. If Déclaration d'un Soir evokes images of grandmothers or anything feminine, for that matter, you simply lack the maturity and sophistication to appreciate rose in a masculine fragrance. Then when Joy Amin, who doesn't like Declaration OG either, did a YouTube review praising D'un Soir, I decided to get a decant to try.

On the one hand, noteless and average (bottle), but on the other hand, it is highly elegant, as the smell is. In fact, this essence is a little unapproachable, strange and surreal for me - but still extremely attractive. The rose is also noticeable, but it isn’t the intense and overly feminine note found in female fragrances, the rose in this fragrance is mild, sweet, floral, and evocative of white fresh roses.I don't think I expected the rose to be quite so prominent in this - I'd imagined a stronger woody backbone like in DHI, or maybe some warm amber, like in Moschino Toy Boy. The rich Rose just stays on my skin for more than 9 hours, however the projection stops around 3-4 hours.

This one is locked into something chemical, a young rose in formaldehyde in a sparkly glass jar or in a greenhouse. So one evening after work took a shower and decided to look under my cabinet to look at what choices I had to just apply something different from what I’ve been using. I don't believe it should have been marketed under the Declaration name as this and the intense version are completely different from the rest of the line. Beautiful linear spicy rose with a noticeable fresh cardamom and a hint of animalic note (caraway) in support. I think the "daring" part of this fragrance is that outside of the fragrance community (what most of the general population is) it is extremely difficult to hit the nail on a rose fragrance that doesn't lean feminine or doesn't have too much nonsense going on.As others have mentioned, the rose here is extremely earthy, as if you're smelling the leaves, thorns, and stem and not just the petals. It feels like one of those few fragrances that doesn't smell like you are wearing a fragrance but your body scent is just nice. The most beautiful part of the scent development is certainly the opening, extremely fresh, juicy, slightly sharp, with a very pleasant alcoholic note, pure alcohol such as vodka, not boozy, such as rum or whiskey. Its a very elegant and sexy smell, its a very masculine rose not a feminine one, and along with the spices it creates a very pleasing, manly, elegant, sophisticated, soft and strong scent at the same time. If the data is transferred to the US, there is a risk that your data can be processed by US authorities, for control and surveillance measures, possibly without legal remedies.
