Fragrance 04
by Dedcool
Fragrance 04 from Dedcool presents a strikingly fresh, woody incense with a peppery citrus opening that evolves into a deep, earthy base. It opens with a sharp burst of black pepper and bergamot, creating a clean, astringent character that some find bleach-like or synthetic. As it settles, the warmth of patchouli, sandalwood, and incense layers in, blending with subtle jasmine and freesia to form a soft, comforting dry down. The scent remains discreet yet persistent, with moderate sillage and a longevity that carries through the day. It is perceived as unisex, leaning masculine in character, but noted to be delicate enough to be worn anytime. Its most compelling aspect lies in the dry down, where the floral and balsamic notes become more pronounced and harmonious.
Pros
- +Delicate, fresh, and earthy profile that works well in day contexts and transitions smoothly into night wear.
- +Strong and lasting performance without being overpowering, with a base that lingers subtly even the next day.
- +A well-balanced, modern composition that appeals to those who enjoy incense, fig, and patchouli in a minimalist, layered way.
Cons
- −Notable astringency and sharpness in the opening can alienate those sensitive to chemical or bleach-like tones.
- −Some users perceive the scent as incomplete or underdeveloped, lacking a clear statement and finishing note.
- −The strong black pepper and patchouli presence may prove too intense or masculine for those seeking subtlety or a soft floral presence.
