Is New Level suitable for professional environments?+−
Yes, its balanced composition of clean neroli and dry woods makes it highly suitable for business settings. It projects a professional, groomed image rather than a loud or distracting one.
How prominent is the oud note in this fragrance?+−
The oud is used as a supporting base note rather than the star of the show. It adds a slight resinous depth and "inkiness" to the woods but does not have the pungent or animalic character found in traditional Middle Eastern perfumery.
Does this fragrance lean more towards a specific season?+−
While it can be worn year-round, it is most popular during the spring and fall. The peppermint and citrus provide enough lift for warmer days, while the frankincense and cashmere wood offer the warmth needed for cooler air.
Is this a good choice for someone who likes "blue" or "soapy" scents?+−
It serves as an interesting alternative for fans of soapy scents. It begins with a clean, almost shampoo-like freshness due to the neroli and mint, but offers more complexity and "darkness" in the dry down compared to standard fresh fragrances.
