After only 18 months in the making, Sextillion 7th Power, the male and female fragrance by Windies cricketer Marlon Samuels, is finally here and just in time for his February 5 birthday.

The cricketer-cum-entrepreneur invited friends and family to celebrate a two-pronged bash at The Venetian at the Terra Nova All-Suite Hotel.

The unapologetic music buff knows how to throw a party, and along with the Amaze Marketing Hub team, had several friends from the entertainment industry perform and share in the milestone.

Samuels, an avid supporter of Brand Jamaica, felt creating his own brand of fragrances would fill the void locally.

So, after networking and meeting who he deems “the right people”, he was able to visit a perfume plant in Europe to formulate his Sextillion 7th Power.

“If you like to dress up, your cologne is usually the last thing you put on,” Samuels stated, speaking of the impetus for creating Sextillion.

He was interviewed live by viral Instagram impersonator Caspian Montgomery –– more popularly known by his IG handle @freetheworldboss –– who was also flown in for the event.

Samuels’ plan for Sextillion was simple, he wanted to create a fragrance with “exceptional quality that gets people talking,” which was the instruction for the perfumers in Europe, who created the fragrance.

Though his only knowledge of perfumes/colognes were from personal experience and a love for fragrance, Samuels was very involved in the process.

He spent 18 months travelling to and fro England to meet with the chemists, where he carefully selected the ingredients to perfect the pungent Black Orchid-based scent.

Sextillion boasts a 20% concentration of exotic notes comparable to the popular Creed line.

Ingredients in the male version include bergamot, pineapple, and musk – making it gentle and fresh on the nose.

While, for its female counterpart, top notes of sandalwood and amber reflect the sweet but woody composition.

Still, Sextillion is in a league of its own and guests would agree that Sextillion 7th Power is ‘likkle but tallawah’.

Sorry admin about the long read but both fans and critics of the Icon wanted to know about his current preoccupation. Especially since there are no cricket news!
