More is not possible...
I was able to get hold of a 2ml original sample from Maison Crivelli. I don't know if the samples differ much from the big bottle, because : I can't understand how you can't give a 10/10 for durability and sillage.
I would not give the shelf life in hours, but in days. The sillage 10m +++.
What is that? I've never experienced anything like it. How can something smell so strong and for so long. I had a spritz on my wrist and my bracelet still smells 3 weeks later as if I had just sprayed it on! Absolute madness.
Now comes my big BUT: I can also only perceive 2 notes. Everything else in the fragrance pyramid is virtually non-existent for me. The 2 notes are leather and bonfire made from the best aromatic firewood. And that's it already. Who wants to smell like a brand new leather jacket that has been aired out by a campfire at 10m for several days?
I think the fragrance itself is much, much, much too "masculine". Ragnar Lodbrock would smell like a bouquet of flowers next to this thing.
A little addendum: If I apply just 2 spritzes ofCHEN to my arms and try to wash it off after 5 minutes under running water, the other notes come through easily and the intensity becomes bearable without throwing a tree trunk in the face of everyone I meet that day.
