‘Inspired by the world famous flawless diamond, Millennium Star defies all the rules. Nothing but insolent charm. It is, in essence, an expression of the fearlessness and bravery that all of us, possess. One in a million. In a millennium.’ – Jazeel

I found Millennium Star the most intriguing, but arguably most daring wear from the 6 Jazeel that I’ve tried at the time of writing.

On one hand, I wanted to like this. If not for the scent, than simply for the density and sheer opulence that it exudes. However, there’s something here that I do not love and ultimately, it’s probably one of my least favorites.

The opening is sharp, leathery, fruity. There’s a specific acrid quality to the leather that I’m familira with some other leather scents and I instantly disliked it. It fades away and gets overtaken by other parts of the composition after a while luckily.

Cognac, but smells quite fruity, like berries. It’s extremely syrupy, thick and has a strong presence in the air. You have to like loud, dominant fragrances to enjoy this; for my taste, it was a bit too screechy and pungent.
