I found this in a box I’d kept for years; the packaging looks terrible. Straight from the bottle it smells synthetic and a bit chaotic, but once it dries down it becomes a perfect delight for everyday wear, ideal for uni or the office.

To be honest, I don’t detect any smoky or leather notes; instead, it smells herbal, aromatic and woody. I wonder if I’ve received a reformulation as the liquid itself is darker than before. Worth the price and smells great, though the longevity is moderate, so it’s best worn in the evening when it’s not too hot.

A soft woody scent, perfect for elegant everyday wear, rich and it lasted all day; I recommend it.
