I’ve been exploring a lot of scents lately, but Ego by Coisy B. caught my attention with its intriguing mix of notes. It seemed like the kind of fragrance that doesn’t settle for just one vibe – and I was right. This one is a bit of a shapeshifter, which makes for an interesting journey.
Right off the bat, Ego starts with a burst of bergamot and orange. It’s crisp and citrusy, but not overly sharp. The lavender gives it a clean, classic touch, but it’s the mix of pink and black pepper that adds a subtle kick. There’s a bit of heat and spice that makes it more than just your typical fresh opening. The geranium sneaks in too, adding a slight green, almost rosy quality that rounds out the top notes nicely. The opening feels lively and invigorating—like it’s getting your attention without trying too hard.
As it starts to settle, the mid-notes make themselves known, and this is where things get more complex. The violet gives a slightly powdery touch, while jasmine brings in some floral richness. However, it’s the saffron and coriander that really stand out here, adding a spicy, almost leathery edge. There’s a warmth and depth that start to emerge, creating a sense of mystery. It’s like the fragrance is leaning into something a little darker, more intriguing, but still holding onto some of that initial freshness.
As Ego dries down, it shifts towards a warm, woody base that’s very comforting. Amberwood and cedar provide a grounding, slightly resinous feel, while ambroxan adds a clean, almost airy muskiness. The musk itself is soft, not too powdery, more like a skin-like warmth that feels close and personal. The vanilla is subtle here—just a hint of sweetness that smooths out the edges rather than turning the fragrance gourmand. It’s a nice balance, keeping the dry down warm and inviting without being overly sweet or heavy.
For me, Ego is a fragrance that manages to be both sophisticated and approachable. It’s complex enough to keep things interesting, but not so intense that it feels overwhelming. There’s a bit of everything—citrus, spice, floral, woody notes—making it versatile and layered. It’s definitely not a one-note scent; it evolves as you wear it, moving from fresh and spicy to warm and woody in a really smooth transition.
