it's finally here so i actually saw and heard this particular fragrance or about this fragrance
for the first time late last year just about a year exactly one year ago and i
know this has been like four years in the making but i tried it for the first time
the little vile sample that i got from the brand's director or managing director yvonne
jacqueline back in synth explorer 2019 and i was blown away that particular scent stayed in my head
imprinted like a fingerprint i couldn't wait to actually try the bottle itself
and wear it you know crazy go crazy on this fragrance to really get a full impression
and the full feel about what this fragrance is like when compared to the original so if you
guys want to know all about the new pegasus exclusive stick around it's coming up next
welcome back to another fragrance review this is a special one guys because i tried this fragrance
about a year ago at centex4 2019 and i was blown away just by the little sample that i had tried
and i couldn't wait to get myself a full bottle i am a big fan of the original pegasus
love that vanilla heliotrope floral bitter almond vibe that you get with this fragrance
it's just great it's long-lasting as we know with park rooms in marley they're very long-lasting
quality fragrances and i would say that it's not going to be any different with this one
but i wanted to just reiterate one thing for you guys as you can probably see here
all the frequencies from the regular line will not have the name imprinted on the bottle we know
this is pegasus because it's the silver bottles so they're very unique to their color schemes
and you know the formats the bottles all look the same but the exclusives will actually have
the full name of the fragrance itself the same goes with the lean exclusive with layton exclusive
and now with pegasus exclusive so pegasus exclusive is available in two main sizes
75 mil which is the size below which retails for 290 or the size you're going to see here in
this review which is 125 ml which retails for 375 usd this is going to be an oriental woody
spicy composition and the nose behind this one is the in-house perfumer from bathrooms
so looking at both bottles here side by side we can see that the caps are the same color
the bottles themselves it's going to be a shiny bright silver and this one's going to have this
matte finish gun metal slash matte silver graphite kind of a vibe i do love this bottle i mean i love
all apart from somali bottles i think they do a tremendous job it's very classy the sprayers
are always very strong here is the original look how wide and far that goes this is the original
pegasus and here is the origin not the original here's the flanker pegasus exclusive same
distribution power the room smells like a million bucks now to cut to the chase and give you guys
a very short explanation of the difference between the two it would be rather unfair but i'll give
you like a quick rundown so what happened here is they took the predominant values or characters of
this profile which were the heliotrope the vanilla the almonds and they transpose it to
this fragrance right here but the only difference is or the main difference is which i'm going to
tell you right now this particular fragrance from the get-go as soon as you spray it on
it's definitely going to have the dna or the scent profile from this fragrance but it's going to be
embellished with a lot of great things that were added to this fragrance we're talking about pink
pepper we're talking about resins we're talking about dark components like a very spicy cardamom
that will greet you up front so in all essence this fragrance is going to be more bold it's
going to be more resinous darker deeper definitely spicier but you can definitely get the combination
of both you can definitely see that this is a great flanker because a lot of components and
elements that you found in this fragrance are also going to be present here i have the spray
on this hand which is this guy right here on this hand i have this guy right here so it's very very
common very there's a lot of commonality between the two but there's a lot of differences as well
um when it comes especially from the heart into the dried down i think the initial blast
that you know character of the pegasus which is that almond vanilla slash heliotrope is going to
be very similar to both i have the dry downs here absolutely when you get into the 30 minute to 40
minute mark the magic begins in my opinion to pegasus exclusive it's actually a better
fragrance for me this is really good but there's something sharp um and a little bit too abrasive
with this fragrance that you don't get with this fragrance a lot of the things that i find with the
exclusive collection i think they are same thing with layton and delena i love the originals but i
like the exclusives because they add these darker nuances and spicier
um facets to this exclusive collection they become more well-rounded they become a little smoother
uh just to me it's not that this is not refined but this stuff here is just way more refined i
guess what i'm trying to say is the great fear that i had with this particular fragrance is that
apart from somali would kill a good thing because why change something that works in this case i
think they did a fantastic job which is something that i found very common with the less exclusive
you know collection in particular the lino of course and latent which came before this one
which takes a dna that's really well made does not lose the actual scent character and profile
but adds always this really nice intriguing and mysterious facets to the fragrance but
also makes it more well-rounded smoother uh and more refined if you will not that the originals
aren't refined but there's just so much more class and sophistication in the exclusives collection
and it's no different here guys this stuff here is a lot spicier it's a lot more denser it's a
lot more darker there's also a food that's added to this fragrance adds a smokiness to it almost a
little bit of a hint of an amalek feel to the fragrance which i love it just makes it more
interesting it gives it more character there's something sharp about the original that i don't
particularly love i like this fragrance from the heart into the dry down mostly
and this one here i loved it from beginning to end so the way this opens up even though it opens up
darker bolder and spicier it's not as sharp as the original was right it was definitely a plus
for me i love that they added notes like cardamom pink pepper and ood which gave this really dark
mysterious facet the fragrance as you get into the heart and into the dry down what i love about this
particular fragrance pegasus exclusive is that it's going to be even more in the smokier side
you're going to get this really nice smoky facet to the fragrance along with lavender and jasmine
which will also add this nice little floral aspect of the fragrance you have the heliotrope here
here in addition to that heliotrope you get the jasmine which i think is also present here but i
do get more of a lavender feel in this one which is a little bit more amped than i got with this
particular one which really the original is really that combination of the heliotrope the
blast of the almonds and the vanilla here there's a lot more going on i'd say this is a more complex
scent if you will definitely more transitions and turns with the exclusive i love the dried out of
both fragrances i tend to like this one a lot more because it not only borrowed elements from this
fragrance from nine years ago which was released in 2011 but it added these really amazing facets
to the fragrance it has this nice sweet and spicy facet the cardamom the vanilla the nutty effect
that i get here with the almonds are just so enhanced by the smokiness and animalistic feel
that you get with the ood you also have this guy would adds this smoothness to the fragrance
all in all a great woody dried down that's spicy resinous and kind of smokey i love the
stuff guys from beginning to end it was a great experience comparing both side by side there's
definitely similarities of course it's a flanker and this is what flankers should be like it should
borrow elements from the original but add these little twists and turns to make it even better
and i think they definitely achieve it here sometimes you know the original be better but
in this case i definitely think this is a better fragrance i think it's definitely more mature
meaning i think it's more elegant dressier i think this one you can wear a little bit more casual
but this one here i can see a gentleman or a lady i think a lady could pull this off if you like
spicy oriental fragrances you're gonna enjoy this but i can see somebody well-dressed evening wear
you know dances romantic settings all those occasions that you want to really put your best
foot forward you want something to really give you an edge and turn heads this is definitely going to
do that for you so performance with exclusive i mean this was beast for me i used to get 10
plus hours when i used to wear this regularly i wear this but not as much these days but this
is a beast i mean all part from somali fragrances are known for quality and performance no different
here this stuff here gave me a good push about one and a half two hours very strongly if you spray
your clothes it's going to give you tremendous ciage and performance was eight plus hours and
again if you spray your clothes it'll be there for a couple of days so powerful stuff right here
really enjoy the performance nothing to talk about negatively when it comes to performance
in the scent itself it's definitely a great new addition to the collection if you're a fan of far
from somali if you didn't enjoy this one because you thought was too sharp or something about it
you didn't love it definitely check this one out and if you also love this one most likely you want
to check this one out because i think it's even a more refined version of the original just to give
you a quick brush up on the seasons i think this is great for the seasons we're in right now fall
and winter coming up but i also think you could potentially wear this all year round depending
on providing you control the sprayers because this is on the stronger side because of the components
that you have here that are quite spicy even though it's well-rounded if you go crazy if you
go trigger-happy you may choke yourself and those around because it is rather a powerful scent but
definitely great for the cool cooler weather in my personal opinion final
assassin here my final thoughts for apart from somali exclusive pregnancy is exclusive
i think this is a great one i love this release definitely one of my favorites of 2020 so far
great job kudos to apar from somali to put another great release out right now as it sits i'd say
this is in the top 10 favorite marlies of all time potentially becoming one of my favorite five of
all time i really enjoyed this one guys it's got a lot of stuff i love uh perhaps if it had like
tobacco or if it had like a boozy facet it would definitely be like in the top five but right now
it's definitely in the top ten a great one um i'm not gonna say go ahead and blind buy
this but definitely try it this is definitely worth or i must try if you will and i believe
that if you do enjoy the first one you're gonna love this one because like i said in my opinion
it's even better so that's my final thoughts apart from somali the new pegasus is exclusive
