I bought this as a present for a friend who is obsessed. However, this smells like a Christmas yankee candle to me, or an old cinnamon potpourri bowl. It starts out with a very strong spicy smell, but turns into a sweet syrupy, headache-inducing type of fragrance.

Atlas is a really unusual fragrance it's warm and spicy with a slightly masculine feel. It's fragrance I keep returning to. The only reason I wouldn't give it five stars is it doesn't last as long on me as I'd like. Nonetheless, if you're looking for a perfume with a difference that will remind you of exotic holidays, I'd highly recommend this.
