Craze

Craze is an oriental fougere for men from Armaf. The record gives it no year and credits no perfumer. Heliotrope and bitter almond are what define it, marzipan-sweet and powdery, with cumin in the opening adding a warm, faintly sweaty spice that stops it reading as a simple dessert. Lavender and sage keep the fougere structure intact, and vanilla, amber and sandalwood finish it soft. Almond-heavy and comfortable. It lasts a long time and projects moderately, for winter and autumn, day or night.
