Cullinan Diamond: Roses Musk Combo Falling Flat

Cullinan Diamond by Thameen
Floral Woody Musk

Cullinan Diamond is hot and heavy. It strongly reminds me off Middle Eastern Montale perfumes. Most of them have this animalic musk, think Roses Musk or Intense Café. Cullinan Diamond smells like a mixture of these two. I don’t like it. The musk is dirty and strong.

Overall, the fragrance smells medicinal and synthetic. No good olfactory experience at all. Montale is at least cheap. Thameen is expensive so I feel there is no excuse and I am going to be harsh in my rating. I am sorry. It is chemical and screechy.

The scent has a great presence and power, basically fills up a room which in this case, you do not want. The aroma smells a tiny bit more feminine than masculine if you want. It must be due to the sweetness from vanilla. The rose is definitely there which I do not mind. I like a naturalistic smelling rose but it must be the potent musk that ruins it for me. Cullinan Diamond is a fail. It is one of the worst from the bunch, if not the worst.
