Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
Excellent, very good. It has a vintage vibe, smelling like aftershave with touches of classic cologne. It’s very easy to wear and softens as it dries. Although the description is a bit vague, an aftershave fits perfectly and I see it as a compliment. For the price and scent, the performance isn’t brutal, but it does a fair job; it’s for everyday wear and needs warmth to shine. Scent 8/10, Price 10/10, Projection 7/10, Longevity 6/10
