So let me say that honestly, some people's reviews are pure misinformation. I give it 2 stars not because of the quality of the fragrance (it's fine) but mainly because of the way it is promoted by the company itself. In no way is the fragrance fresh, herbal, or powdery. It is a common sweet scent. If you like sweet fragrances, go ahead and get it. It definitely does not belong to the category of fresh summer fragrances.

Soft, creamy, and clean! The signature musc of Narciso Rodriguez stands out, followed quite far behind by a much brighter vetiver compared to other variations. Quite good longevity, moderate projection and trail. Its scent reminds me a bit of rain and I prefer it for autumn, but I think it will also be suitable for spring-summer.

Interesting.. First of all, let me note from the outset that I do not align with the rating on Fragrantica. It is quite low. Probably from people who haven't even smelled it (happens quite often on Fragrantica..)

About the fragrance:

Almost all the elements are perceptible on my skin.. I found the opening wonderful. Quite aromatic, a bit green and spicy. Opening with nutmeg and a bit of dry cypress.. The cardamom is not particularly noticeable.. From dry, it gradually starts to become creamy. After the fourth minute, the geranium comes in (strongly), lavender and musk create a very interesting aromatic chord with perceptible musk - a powdery-soapy aromatic carpet. The powdery-soapy note is noticeable almost from the start, I should mention. However, as time passes, the musk starts to take the lead.. After three hours, a little wood appears in a harmonious coexistence with the middle notes, and the musk leads the parade. The vetiver never comes straight forward. It blends with the woody elements at the beginning.
..............

Longevity: 4-5 hours on the skin
Projection: about an hour at arm's length. Afterwards, it stays close to the skin
Ages: 40+.. Without excluding it, I don't think it can be appreciated by younger ages
Seasons: Autumn, spring and early summer
Occasions: Morning and ideal for the office. In the evening in an open space, it will get lost
Gender: Masculine but women can also pull it off. However, it is not unisex.
.................

So, what do we have? A rather uplifting, refreshing fragrance without anything aquatic. Aromatic, spicy, slightly herbal, powdery, creamy with a constant subdued sweetness and a hint of woods.

Note: The name does not correspond to what you get.. Don't expect a lot of woods and earthy-green elements. Like most hardcore vetiver fragrances. Absolutely no relation. At least on my skin.

Summary

+Quality blend (You can tell as soon as you put it on)
+Wonderful bottle
+Versatile
+Fair price for what you get (you don't feel like you robbed a church but neither that you got ripped off). Note: FAIR around €65 for 100 ml.. Not higher. I mention this because from €60 at discounters it went up to €95..
+Did not cause anosmia. I could smell it throughout and enjoyed it
+Nice aromatic result for my taste
-Longevity: Average to poor
-Projection: Average to poor
-Age restriction
-Not for blind buy.. It deviates from the freshie fragrances that have dominated the last five years
-The name is at least unfortunate. Completely inconsistent with the final aromatic experience (vetiver).
.........................
If it lasted a bit longer, it would definitely be 4 stars from me.

My personal recommendation.. If you find it on a shelf, it's worth your time and a try on your skin.. It is 'nicely' different. Always, of course, on the condition that you are looking for something even a little off the beaten path..

Very good. I enjoyed it and it's not 3 stars.. It's 3.80
