Is Alter Ego 786 suitable for daily office wear?+−
Because of its heavy sillage and smoky, leathery profile, most find it better suited for evening events, nights out, or leisure activities in cold weather. It may be too potent for a conservative business environment.
How does the leather note in this fragrance compare to other popular scents?+−
The Woodleather® note combined with oud and labdanum creates a smokier, more resinous leather than the clean "new car" scent found in some mainstream fragrances. It has a gritty, animalic quality that fans of bold, textured leather scents will appreciate.
Will this fragrance last throughout a long evening?+−
Performance is one of this scent's strongest attributes. It is known for high longevity and significant projection, meaning it typically does not require reapplication even during long nights out.
Does the raspberry make this a very sweet perfume?+−
No, the raspberry liqueur note is more tart and boozy than sugary. It serves as a counterpoint to the dry cinnamon and saffron, adding depth to the opening rather than making the fragrance smell like candy.
