Sticky Fingers Extrait De Parfum

Bold, provocative and unapologetically animalic fragrance that certainly lives up to its rather suggestive name. I was expecting something sweet and fruity, but instead I got an intense combination of damp, earthy patchouli, tobacco, leather and animalic notes. On my skin, it develops a spicy, almost sour character, with musk and coriander adding further intensity. Unfortunately, the softer notes of tonka bean, heliotrope and cinnamon are completely lost on my nose. It reminds me of an old fashioned, rather decadent boudoir, complete with worn leather furniture and an atmosphere of questionable activities. Performance is impressive, with strong initial projection and excellent longevity. Definitely better suited to colder weather. While I appreciate the creativity and daring character of this composition, it's simply too animalic and challenging for my personal taste. If you enjoy dark, raunchy and unapologetically sensual fragrances, this might be right up your street. As for me, I'll admire it from a safe distance.
