Description

It is safe to assume that incredibly sweet, artificial-fruity tobacco is the Big Guy’s very favorite aroma, and there’s no accounting for taste (as I’m sure we can all politely agree).

On my initial few usages I noted the "Play dough" like aspect, but as I have gotten used to it it's faded away. It reminds me of an apricot/plum jam, a boozy homemade plum liqueur, but most of the things it reminds me of a dessert that is very popular in Eastern Europe - a dark chocolate covered plum.Our Outlet Mall and Al Rigga branch includes a perfume bar concept where you can create your own favourite fragrance on the spot. what a surprise although the plum note is still there it’s the vanilla that has now taken centre stage, I don’t get apricot at all, mostly vanilla a little salt and a very slight plum in the background, it isn’t as cloying and much more wearable, not a love but a like, It’s very loud so you need to go easy on the trigger. Having tested the entire Olympea line, except the Solar which annoyingly has evaded me, I can safely say this is the best one.

Master of this mix Loc Dong among whose creations we find YSL Manifesto, CK's Euphoria and Beyonce's Rise. I love the original Olympea, I hoped Legend would be a more summery beachy version, but I'm just not that into fruity plum scents. Like I said, if I could differentiate the notes (my fault, not the Legend's), then I would probably better understand the composition. This is a STRONG, sweet, salty caramel, I also imagine a plum cake dotted with little bits of dried apricot. Smells amazing such a creamy vanilla 😍 it’s a warm and sweet gourmand, when you first spray it you can smell that apricot it’s quite noticiable mixed with the vanilla, this perfume has the prettiest dry down 💕, the salt in this perfume it’s not like “beach” salt it’s more like salt added to desserts, it helps bring out those yummy notes, I wouldn’t see myself wearing this on summer cuz it can be a little bit heavy.I blind bought the 80ml and regretted immediately so you better try it before purchasing the full size. I think I may even prefer this over the original maybe because I wore the original a lot in the past.

A: While Olympea Legend is captivating on its own, you can experiment with layering it with other Paco Rabanne fragrances for a personalized and unique scent profile.

It has that heavy playdoh type of vanilla, somewhat over done for my tastes, but could almost fit in a niche gourmand or Montale offering. I put on a tiny splash from a mini to test it out and it’s actually making me feel a bit sick, which rarely happens for me. I don't think I would repurchase when this bottle is finished but it could grow on me I will update my review accordingly. I also don't think it's the plumb by itself as other fragrances I have smelt with plumb don't smell like this. Even on the blotter it smells nice and plummy but unfortunately it smells very weird medicine like on my skin.
