Omeyocan

7.6

Tolteca · 2018

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Tolteca Omeyocan is a fresh men's fragrance in which citrus and green tones sit on a spicy, resinous, woody base; it has been discontinued. Most voters place it in summer and spring, with fall not far behind and winter a distant choice. Leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, and voters mostly call it masculine and classic. The top is citrus fruits, basil, violet leaf and cardamom, opening fresh, green and lightly spicy. Lavender, Sichuan pepper and red thyme warm the heart. The base of cedarwood, hay and labdanum leaves a woody, earthy, resinous finish.

Ollin

7.1

Tolteca · 2018

Green · Sweet · Spicy

Tolteca Ollin is a green, woody men's fragrance that opens with violet leaf, absinth and Thai ginger and settles into vetiver and Texas cedar. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters place it mostly in leisure and business settings, then daily wear, with evening and night out further behind. It has been discontinued. It begins with the green, slightly bitter edge of violet leaf and absinth against ginger's spice. In the heart, patchouli and davana push it towards an earthy, smoky side. The base of vetiver, Texas cedar and amber leaves a woody, resinous, faintly sweet footing.

Tleyotl

7.5

Tolteca · 2018

Citrus · Floral · Green

Tolteca Tleyotl is a women's perfume that pairs citrus with white florals along a green line; it has been discontinued. Red mandarin orange, raspberry leaf and blood orange give a fruity, fresh start.

Voters split it almost evenly between daily wear, business, leisure and evening. Xerjoff Torino23 and Acqua di Parma Note di Colonia I have a close profile.

Quetzalli

7.0

Tolteca · 2018

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Tolteca Quetzalli is a fresh, floral women's fragrance led by citrus and green notes; it has been discontinued, but its light character suits spring and summer days. It opens with clementine, blackcurrant bud and petitgrain for a bright start, while galbanum adds a sharp green edge. In the heart, rose and raspberry are softened by a cool dew drop; cedarwood, spikenard and amyris settle the scent onto a woody, slightly resinous base. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, work and daily wear. It reads mostly feminine. Diptyque L'Eau du Trente-Quatre and Atkinsons Posh on the Green have a close profile.

Calli

6.8

Tolteca · 2018

Floral · Green · Sweet

Tolteca Calli is a feminine scent that pairs a floral, green opening with gourmand sweetness and spice; it has been discontinued. At the start, coriander seed, angelica root and fig milk set a green, faintly milky tone. In the heart, jasmine absolute, cinnamon and roasted sesame soften the floral side with spice and a gourmand warmth. The base of vetiver, patchouli and Indian sandalwood is earthy and woody, while maté and tonka bean sweeten it. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate: it neither fades quickly nor fills a room. The number of ratings is small, so these impressions are tentative. Its resinous, oriental edges and sweet gourmand build suit calm, close-range wear.

Ocelotl

7.4

Tolteca · 2018

Citrus · Green · Spicy

Tolteca Ocelotl is a spicy, woody and smoky men's scent that opens on bergamot, cardamom, lavender and ginger and settles into myrrh, tonka bean and Atlas cedar; it dates from 2018 and has been discontinued. Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. There are no season or occasion votes to go on, so nothing more can be said about when it suits; it reads masculine. It starts citrusy and green: bergamot's brightness, cardamom and ginger spice, clean lavender. The heart brings thyme, priprioca, frankincense and geranium, adding a resinous, earthy tone. In the base, myrrh, tonka bean, Canary Islands juniper, Atlas cedar and Indian sandalwood carry it into a woody, smoky warmth with a faint animal edge. Amouage Epic Man and Yas Perfumes Piedra have a close profile.
