Vol de Nuit = Jicky spiced up?

Hi men. I just got a 30 ml Parfum-version of Vol de Nuit in that awesome "propella"-bottle.

Not many threads about Vol de Nuit for men here, so I'd like to know if some of you like this scent? I do!

I guess it's first of all an oriental, but it reminds me very much of Jicky, just spiced up. That is, like a fougère-ish walk in a mildly wet forest, just spiced immensely up with a sharp floral quality in the top notes.

As I find Jicky manly, so is Vol de Nuit in my view. Some thoughts?

Hello Killer_Vavoom

Often I have changed my view of perfumes after using them for a while (and after reading knowledgeable reviews), and VdN is very new to me. So your input will probably influence my sniffing and reflections on VdN vs Jicky over the coming weekend.

Yesterday night I sniffed VdN from my wrist sans arrêt, and my first impressions were, as I said above, that VdN in the middle of the whole thing, share some foresty accord with Jicky. Perhaps I am not right. What also strikes me is that I'd normally say that Jicky is the polite one, VdN the seductive one. This weekend I will try to find out how the VdN could be viewed as polite. Is it bevause I use the Parfum? Yesterday I found it quite spicy and aggressive, not polite?

Jicky may be seductive, but still, even my Parfum-edition is kind of shy and polite in my view. But then again, sometimes shyness is seductive.

I think that the EdT version can be viewed as a "shortcut" to the Parfum, that is a quick trip from top to base, whereas the Parfum takes hours to go the way. And on this way, it shows it's complexity in a way that the EdT doesn't have time and force for.

The Parfum is, to my nose, extremely florally spicy all the way through, though the last part of the trip is powered by the vanilla.

For me, it is the first scent that I own that I can smell with my memory without having it in front of me. And the Parfum version is even more distinctive!
