Item Description
I have not been able to find many scents that I like, and I am no connoisseur. Sharp florals put me off - the right (wrong) ones will pretty much put a spike through my head.
Quercus is marketed as a mans fragrance, but I can see it working well for a woman too. There is not much complexity to my nose - what it opens with seems to be pretty much what you get. There is a little citrus at the opening, but it disappears almost immediately leaving you with the floral heart. The base notes are supposed to be musk and amber, but I never really get them.
This cologne has been slammed by some as being short lived, but on me it lasts all day. I really, really like it, but I have to be in a mood for it since it is fairly strong. That seems to be a minority opinion. If you read the Basenotes reviews it gets hammered for poor longevity. I guess this is a YMMV sort of thing.
I find Quercus a rather loud scent, and I have to reduce what I would normally use to keep it from being overpowering. But when used for good rather than evil, it's great stuff.
The price is a little steep. Well, it's a lot steep. But a little goes a long way on me so in cost per use it's not too bad. The packaging is pure class. Who else puts a little bow tie on their bottle?
