    Sounds great and since High School in the 70's I'lve loved Iommi's guitar work. If this fragrance is half as good as those licks it will be worth it.

    An amazing patchouli scent with leather and a bit of booziness. Reminds me of Armani Prive Cuir Majeste, but with extra patchouli and booziness. Amazing creation.

      I just discovered The Conqueror by Voyage Royal at a local discount chemist, 90% similarity for a seventh of the price! The opening is definitely more alcoholic, sharper on the nose, not as rich & smooth as Xerjoff of course, but the dry down is almost identical.

    This reminds me a lot of Angel’s Share by Kilian. I get a sweet vanilla infused whiskey, but not much too notes or leather. Lasts a lot longer than AS so this could be a nice alternative. Great scent!

    Great bottle design. Sounds like a goodie. I was actually just wearing Layton the other day and thinking...how is there no caramel listed in this? 😆 Now I understand why I enjoy it! Certainly the reason I enjoy Lira. And just like that, I'm suddenly on the search for caramel fragrances. 🤣

    The metallic polish finish is quite befitting to the theme of Hard Rock / Metal theme of Black Sabbath and with the association of patchouli to this fragrance couldn’t be more apt. I am adding it on my wish list. Thanks for the review Sir. Happy New Year…Happy Holidays🎁🎁🎉🎉🍰🍰💯💯💯🎉🎉🎁🎁
