Classic Myrrh isn't really a myrrh fragrance but more of a woody-aromatic outing.
Any resinous or medicinal attributes are painfully lacking, and the composition lacks sufficient clarity – coming across as muddy and poorly-conceived. With a dough-like woody aroma emitting for most of its lifespan, it isn't that it uses poor quality materials (far from it) but its overall execution is rather underwhelming.
Performing close to the skin, its lasting power is respectable but the name is gravely misleading.
