Jazzed Ember - 0854 - Roll & Extract
This is a patchouli, boozy, sweet stunner of a fragrance! The PP’s version is hands-down one of my favourite scents in the over 60 fragrances I have ordered from them. I originally ordered the 3ml roll on and the scent took me by surprise, it was just captivating. Very much in the warm hug type scents territory, like your Angels Share and Tobacco Vanilles. Not like them to smell, but has that overwhelming sweet warmth, Heaven!
I tried the original Tony Iommi Monkey Special at a Xerjoff® stand a few weeks after ordering my PP Roll-on & Extract spray. PP’s is missing some of the dry earthiness of the original, which I would say is some of the patchouli, in the opening. But I prefer the PP’s version here because it really delivered that sweet, boozy goodness. I wore this out with my family to the theatre with friends and my friend told me later that he was catching wafts of the scent all day.
This is one of the first Extracts I bought from PP. I will only ever buy them from now on, no more EDP’s of waiting times from here on in, the Extracts are 100% worth the extra cost. Everything from the packaging to the scent quality, on the day of delivery, makes them a no-brainer.
Scent - 5 / 5
Performance - 5 / 5
I wanted to base my reviews on more than just an unmeasured opinion, so I have used this method to rate all of my purchases at week 1 (under 7 days after delivery) and after week 4 (generally mentioned ‘maceration’ time). I always spray 2x each side in the clavicle, 1x behind each ear and the back of my neck, never on clothes.
With a total score of 10 equally split between smell and performance.
Smell: 0-5
This is obviously just my own taste
Performance: 0-5
Checked at 1, 2, 3, 5 & 9 hrs)
I can certainly say that, without exception, every scent has improved in performance between weeks 1 & 4 and by week 12 many have developed further with tobacco and other warm notes becoming much richer.
I hope this is helpful
