I tested this fragrance out, while on a business trip to Canada. I was really looking forward to this fragrance, the bottle is beautiful, similar to the MJ Bang flacon. The fragrance on the other hand makes MJ's Bang seem like a masterpiece. The exotic fragrance notes given in the fragrance pyramid are just not there. There is no oud, cedar,patchouli , jasmine. All I get is a generic synthetic citrus mess, easily found at discount fragrance stores. For the fleeting two hours it lasted on my skin, all I got was Citrus and an Alcohol vibe, thats it. Epic Fail for me! I will just stick to Niche Houses and Private Blends as I usually do.
