From the perfumer - "Triumph Of Bacchus (Trionfo Di Bacco) is represented by the Roman god Bacchus. Bacchus was considered the god of wine making, fertility, ritual madness, theater, and religious ecstasy. He was one of the twelve Olympians, although he was that last to arrive. Often called Eleutherios, meaning "the liberator", because his wine, music and ecstatic dance freed mortals from self-consciousness and the restraints of society. Bacchus crossed the boundary between life and death, between the known and unknown. He was a god of chaos and protector of misfits. This Luxurious scent is shrouded in grandeur and mystery. Wildly romantic and fragrant notes dance beautifully together in chorus. Argos Triumph Of Bacchus is an exotic fragrance opening with Spicy Saffron, Royal Green Apple, and Rhum notes. Confident and refined Tobacco is paired perfectly with Oriental and Vanilla, revealing a powerfully seductive and almost sinful aphrodisiac."
Fragrantica - "Best tobacco scent!!!."
Fragrantica - "It took a while for me to really appreciate this scent. At first i could smell what cough syrup tastes like. the apple and peach note is pretty synthetic and for me it took a minute to get used to, but when i did get used to it, it became one of my favorite fragrances. The opening has that super sweet cough syrup smell but it does dry down to a nice boozy, tobacco scent, mixed in with the sweetness from the opening and hints of a spicy scent. @Youssef samy said it best, its like jazz clubs older brother or dad. I wouldnt say its as good as jazz club but its in that same ball park. longevity is good and the projection is okay. I would give it a nice 8.5/10"
Fragrantica - "In the opening it’s almost 1-1 with side effect but takes a fruity/peach approach and over time develops in its own amazing fragrance."
Fragrantica - "This masterpiece is very amazing i have it and it just blew me away this is one of the smoothes fragrance that i have ever smelled with its opening being chaotic but after you leave it for one hour the fragrance becomes very smooth i don't know how they made the tobacco sent become so harsh in the opening and then dry down to become a smooth amazing scent this fragrance would be the like the father or the big brother of jazz club. This fragrance has much depth to it yet it so smooth probably due to the amazing rum scent in it . An if i where to put it in words this would probably be the favourite scent of the the old Egyptian kings that ruled the world long ago ."
Fragrantica - "Argos Triumph of Bacchus is nothing short of breathtaking—a fragrance that exudes depth, and refinement in every spray. From the very first whiff, it captivates with a rich, peach, apple, boozy rum and velvety tobacco opening, seamlessly blending into a heart of creamy vanilla, warm spices, and smooth tonka bean. The dry-down? Absolutely intoxicating—ambery, slightly sweet, and irresistibly elegant, with a lingering sophistication that commands attention.
As a lover of niche fragrances, I have high expectations, and Argos nailed it with this one. This is #1 in all of my fragrances and the craftsmanship is undeniable, the performance is outstanding, and it has that rare ability to make you feel dressed in luxury. That said, this isn’t for everyone—it’s bold, complex, and unapologetically rich. Not the safest blind buy, but if you do take the risk and absolutely love it, you have great taste. A true masterpiece and a main staple in my collection.
An absolutely well deserved 10/10."
