Nameless (2009)
by Mark Buxton

Nameless is an ambitious and interesting project built on juxtapositions. Unfortunately the finished product it's way too far from being successful. This composition opens with a fresh mixture of orange, mandarin and lavender juxtaposed to a consistent dose of benzoin. Spices make their appearance right away joined by amber, hints of patchouli and woody notes.Fresh, easy to wear but quite generic. Overall Nameless could be a (no more than) ok fragrance if just marketed by some designer's outfit at the average department-store price, but it's a niche perfume intended for the up-market audience with an outrageous price tag. Unacceptable.
