  1. A sweet, amber and woody gourmet fragrance reminiscent of Mugler’s A*Men, YSL’s Body Kouros and Rochas Man. As Trey Welsh notes, the trail and longevity are short: about four hours on the skin and a little longer on clothes. Perfect for romantic dates or personal use after a shower, a lazy afternoon at home, or before bed. Unlike the other three, which are heavier and longer-lasting, this is light and pleasant for any nose. The bottle does not include a sprayer; it is cologne and costs around $6 for 168ml.

    The packaging is exactly what one would expect for this price. The bottle is generic, with no engravings or textures, just the name in simple letters on the plastic cap, and the sprayer is unremarkable (Mexican version). It has a linear development: starting with spices over cardamomo for a warm opening, followed by a woody accord dominated by patchouli, and finishing aromatic as it dries. Longevity and trail are brief; it disappears quickly on the skin. For the price, it’s a good buy for use after a shower, at home, or before bed. Suitable all year round, though more application is needed in cold weather. An excellent option to vary the collection for the $3 I paid.
