Love it! Initio is my first brand in fragrances.
My husband is obsessed with this one! Definitely a compliment getter.
This is quite literally one of my favorites. I first smelled by this monthly subscription and immediately shopped around for the cheapest bottle. I had to have it and not sure what Initio is putting in this aside from the hedione but it’s like a spell! It brings me pure joy wearing it.
This is an awesome fragrance.... But with that being said its just not my style, but definately a banger fragrance
This scent is very much a summery unisex scent, that invokes a Mediterranean seaside. It's warm, spicey, with strong citrus and plumy notes. Not my go to scent, but still smells expensive
That first opening note is everything, the Plum is amazing....4.5
Love. Already purchased a full bottle. Opening spray is a little heavy on the lavender, but it settles down in to a beautiful creamy and woody scent shortly after. Lasts all day
I want to live in this….
The first spray intense. The lavender and palo santo will knock you over strong w/ a really herbal quality. Once it dries down a bit it it more woody, sweet, herbal, and powdery. You cannot smell any plum over the other notes until it drys down and mellows out. Not a hot weather fragrance. I like this fragrance, but not until mellows out so be sure to spray in advance of an outing.
a little weak
I live the scent, it's long wear, luxurious.
Very lavender and fruit heavy opening but quickly dries down into a much woodier fragrance - still much more feminine than unisex or masculine, in my opinion. It is a powerhouse in terms of longevity and sillage but I can see why this one really divides opinion - intense and complex fragrance that just wasn’t for me (personal taste, above all else). I think this is more of an Autumn scent - I imagine it’d feel cloying in heat. I’ve seen other reviews describe this as being reminiscent of old fashioned cough syrup and I’m inclined to agree.
This one has me going back and forth. I don't hate it. I don't love it. It's for sure too overpowering to wear during the summer here, so I'll have to wait until it cools down to figure out my feelings all the way. I think I'd like it more on a man and that's why it has me confused. I wear unisex and masculine-leaning scents all the time, but this gives me very different vibes. It smells SO GOOD, but I don't know if I can pull it off. Excellent composition, sillage, longevity. Has a huge personality and presence. I'll review again when it cools down.
amazing scent
I love Palo Santo, so I really like Paragon. I do not notice the plum note though. This scent feels like a warm hug to me. It really lasts.
Great fragrance...definitely unisex
Lovely scent like most from this line.
Another Initio win
Not my type. Very fruity scent
Great smell
I enjoyed this right off the bat. It definitely has the Initio DNA. It’s an easy wear, can’t find much not to like about it. I need to give it another full wear to pick u the notes - first wear I didn’t get the plum.
Another disappointment from Initio. Paragon has given such a strange experience. At first it smelled like a freshly popped can of biscuits for hours and then settled into an old man fragrance, then on the third try, I could smell the plum but it wasn’t enjoyable and then settled into a men’s cologne scent. It didn’t smell like the notes listed.
That plum note is EVERYTHING!!'
