The top note immediately reminded me of Philosykos by Diptyque, with its fig leaf note that carries into the drydown. However, this fragrance replaces the coconut note in Philosykos with blackcurrant and palm leaf. I am not familiar with the scent of palm leaf and cyclamen, but I would say that the petitgrain and possibly palm leaf give it a slightly grassy vibe. The opening is green, but the drydown is fruitier, likely due to the black currant and tonka bean. The performance is decent.

While I initially thought this might be a clone of Philosykos, the drydown gives it a different twist. It's still not entirely unique, but I can appreciate the effort put into creating a spinoff. For me, this fragrance isn't worth a full bottle purchase, but if you really love Philosykos, it's worth sampling.
