Provocative and sultry, this chypre fragrance is an intense blend of exotic leather, wood, spices, and floral notes of neroli, ylang-ylang, jasmine, tuberose, vetiver, oakmoss, patchouli, and musk.
Bandit is not for the faint-hearted. It starts with heavy green notes and gradually transitions to a beautiful floral mixture with hints of spices. Leather is distinctly present from the beginning, and in the heart of the scent, an earthy-mossy mix joins in, vaguely reminiscent of a filled ashtray.
There is not the slightest hint of powderiness in the fragrance, nothing adds delicacy to it. On the contrary, Bandit, as it deepens, becomes wild, decidedly animalistic. It is a complex scent, scandalous in spirit, and it is full of energy. Bandit wears a leather jacket and is always ready to embark on an adventure, which might not always be merry, but is certainly thrilling.
I absolutely adore Bandit, it is the most beautiful and versatile fragrance. I am eagerly awaiting its triumphant return to my favorite MakeUP!
The fragrance is amazing! Bold, unique, with a steel backbone. A woman wearing it is not just an ordinary girl; she has something to say, but she may not even think if she needs to. This perfume is not for everyone. As an owner of two other Robert Piguet fragrances, I can say that I want more.
I'm glad there is a sample available. The scent is quite harsh, truly rough... although I do love woody notes. However, the resemblance it has to "Ellips" (which I used to own at some point) is about the same as a clay pot with Chinese porcelain. Perhaps the only positive aspect is its incredible longevity.
This fragrance is very similar to the blue Ellipse. The scents are twins.
I absolutely love Maya Plisetskaya's favorite fragrance, created by the first female perfumer, Germaine Cellier. The fragrance was first released in 1944 and is considered a classic in the world of perfumery. Although the reissues of this fragrance don't quite live up to the original, it still sounds wonderful during the autumn and winter seasons. The longevity and sillage are both impressive. This fragrance is suitable for those who appreciate both classic and niche scents. It truly embodies the essence of "high" perfumery art. I adore it immensely.
