How does this fragrance perform in terms of lasting power?+−
No 7 - Sekushi is an Extrait de Parfum (Parfum concentration), which typically ensures very strong longevity. Enthusiasts regularly report that the scent lasts through an entire day or evening without needing a re-application.
Is this a feminine or masculine fragrance?+−
It is classified as unisex. While the raspberry and cotton candy notes might suggest a feminine leaning, the prominent leather, frankincense, and patchouli provide a rugged, masculine edge that balances the composition.
What is the best time of year to wear Sekushi?+−
Most people find it best suited for the transitional weather of fall and spring, as well as the cold of winter. The richness of the leather and resins can feel a bit heavy in the peak of summer heat, though it remains a popular choice for summer nights.
Does the leather note dominate the entire wear?+−
The leather is most prominent and "coarse" during the opening. As the fragrance settles, it becomes much smoother and blends into the background, allowing the creamy apricot, raspberry, and musk to take center stage.
