by Loewe
Discovering Colon by Loewe is a musky, oud-heavy fragrance that evokes a deep, rich, and slightly medicinal scent reminiscent of agarwood and raw musk. The composition is notably potent and intense, with a striking sillage that lingers strongly—intended for evening wear, particularly in autumn and winter. Most users find it long-wearing, though a moderate portion report only moderate longevity, suggesting variability in performance depending on skin chemistry. The olfactive character leans heavily toward brooding, smoky, and earthy accords, drawing comparison to Clive Christian X Oudh Limited Edition, but with a more restrained, less opulent profile. Despite its technical qualities, the fragrance’s name stirs controversy due to its sensitive connotations in non-Spanish speaking regions, notably evoking bodily or digestive references, which some find offensive or distracting. However, for those seeking a bold, musky oud scent with a scholarly or artistic aura, this fragrance delivers an unmistakable sensory journey.
