How does this perform in terms of lasting power and projection?+−
You can expect excellent longevity, with the scent typically staying on the skin for 8 to 10 hours. However, its projection is moderate and tends to stay close to the wearer, making it a more personal scent rather than one that fills a room.
Is this fragrance more masculine or feminine?+−
While it contains rose and violet, the heavy presence of pine, spruce, and smoky resins makes it truly unisex. Men often appreciate the rugged forest notes, while women may find the creamy, powdery drydown more familiar.
For which seasons and occasions is Ecstasy best suited?+−
It is most popular during the fall and winter due to its smoky, resinous warmth. Users find it works well for evening wear, leisure, and even business settings, as it is professional and comforting rather than loud or offensive.
Does this smell like a realistic forest?+−
In the opening, yes—the pine, spruce, and stone powder create a very vivid "outdoor" atmosphere. As it dries down, it transitions into a more traditional resinous-woody scent dominated by incense and sandalwood.
