Great Evening - 1602

90/95% the same as the original. I LOVE IT

I’m not a great fan of unisex scents. They’re usually too masculine for my tastes or they are a mishmash that doesn’t really work for men or women. But I was attracted by the very good reviews about the original. So I bought the oil. In my view Great Evening does work for men and women who are into amber scents. But it’s not for customers who prefer floral or fresh, clean scents. It is a soft, aromatic scent. It’s made up of all the amber notes like vanilla, and resinous benzoin, tonka bean and labdanum. They create a rich, spicy, powdery dry down, evening scent for the cool weather. This scent begins with a unique blend of soft spice and a hint of lavender. The labdanum resin adds a slightly woody, slightly musky and sweet note. The benzoin adds a sweet, soft, cinnamon note. The Tonka bean is a wonderful aromatic spice that combines the scents of vanilla, almond and/or marzipan, cinnamon and cloves. I also get a hint of lavender in the beginning. Vanilla and lavender are known to be two notes that really work well with this amber accord of notes. All of these notes combine to create a very soft, warm, comforting scent. Some people also find this amber combination animalic and sexy. As it dries down it becomes more and more powdery and feminine. PP have done a fine job of combining all these elements. I’ve been wearing it in the cool weather at the moment and receiving compliments. It also has the three elements I prize. It’s elegant, classy and smells expensive. 75ml of the original will cost you £185 at John Lewis.

Option Review:10ml Roll On
This is my 4th purchase of grand soir perfume oil. I do have a bottle of the original, but only a small amount left. Once applied, and dried down, the majority of people would be hard pressed to tell them apart. Great longevity and silage. Always garners compliments, but I chose to wear it because I adore this scent. Smells very classy, unique and expensive! Not always easy to get your hands on an original bottle, but having tried PP version, I won’t buy the original ever again. Very suitable for evenings and cooler days. Unisex. I find a little goes a long way, as very potent. One of my all time favourites. Thank you PP

Unashamedly classy, opulent and unisex. I regret not getting this sooner
