I own a lot of perfumes, so it’s not easy for something to really surprise me. But Abolu is my first bottle from The House of XLNC, and honestly, I’m seriously impressed.
From the first spray, it gave me the same powerful vibe as Afnan’s Supremacy Collector’s Edition from Afnan Perfumes. It has that bold, confident character that instantly grabs attention. If you like strong, masculine fragrances that make a statement, this is right up your alley.
The projection is crazy. This is not a soft or close to the skin scent. It fills the room easily, and people definitely notice it. Every time I wear it, someone picks up on it. It leaves a strong scent trail without even needing to spray too much.
The longevity is on another level. I sprayed it on my overjacket four days ago, and it still smells almost the same. That kind of performance is rare. It really sticks to clothes and just keeps going.
For my first experience with XLNC, Abolu set the bar very high. Strong projection, beast mode longevity, and a scent DNA that stands confidently next to some well known heavy hitters. I’m definitely looking forward to trying more from this house.
