Police Legend for Woman
by Police
Police Legend for Woman is a bold, intensely sweet floral-woody amber fragrance with a prominent initial burst of juicy blackcurrant and ripe fruit, layered over warm vanilla, patchouli, and jasmine. The scent opens with a sharp, synthetic edge—reminiscent of a high-density grape and honeyed bubblegum—giving it a loud, attention-commanding presence. Over time, the fruitiness mellows into a softer, powdered vanilla and floral base with subtle amber and cashmere wood notes. It’s not natural-smelling; instead, it leans into a polished, synthetic neon aesthetic, evoking comparisons to Marc Jacobs Decadence, Elie Saab Intense, and even Alien. The performance is strong: it has long-lasting longevity and moderate-to-strong sillage, making it ideal for cold weather and evening wear. It feels mature and seductive, with a rich, syrupy warmth that draws attention without being overwhelming to some wearers.
Pros
- +Excellent longevity and sillage, making it suitable for winter and night wear
- +High-quality scent with a luxurious-feeling performance despite its affordable price
- +Unique, bold character that stands out in a crowded market and appeals to fans of intense, synthetic, fruity-floral-amber scents
Cons
- −Strong, synthetic opening can be overwhelming and unpleasant to sensitive noses
- −Potential to become cloying or overly sweet on some skin chemistries
- −The patchouli and black currant combination may feel mismatched or dirty to some, especially those averse to heavy-fruit or earthy base notes
