Contre Pouvoir
Brécourt (2010)

Rather light, musky, not at all how I imagined it might smell. Not due for re-testing any time soon.

I don't have much experience with reviewing but here we go.
Contre Pouvoir is a light spicey parfum with a citrus and earthy note in the likes of Encre Noire (probably the vetiver??)
First time i sprayed this one on in the store i was immediately intrigued buy it. It was so different from the few fragrances i had. I got a sample to test it and after
a few wearings i went back and got myself a bottle.
Somehow though i don't wear it often now but every time i do i find myself thinking i should wear it more.

Lightly spiced wood that smells like something I smelled before. I get a earthy note in this. A light citrus note with a touch of musk. Not bad at all. 7/10

Beautiful citrus fragrance similar to which I cannot think of. It is not sharp/rancid or sweet and although a bit on the traditional side of niche, I really like Contre Pouvoir - although some may find it similar to washing liquid. I find the composition such an accomplishment while longevity is average and silage is a bit below average. What I get from CB on my skin is a lovely vervain accord although no vervain is listed in the notes... this is why I find this an accomplishment. For citrus lovers this is one of the best perfumes and a must try. Most of Brecourt creations I have tried are linear and CP is no exception, but in this case I don't mind at all.
