What wearers say

“The smell is 10/10.It is a very likable fragrance, but the performance ruins everything if you get 5-6 hours of longevity, feel lucky.The projection is weak; you should overspray it to get a satisfying projection.Price, performance, and the smell all together 8/10From this kind of smell, I would love to get minimum 7 hours and a nice projection for 2-3 hours.I hope one day they release a powerful flanker of this with some additions like leather or booze.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“They messed up with the reformulation, scent wise the old one is way superior. New batch smells like the EDT should smell… I get 7/8 hours of longevity with the old batch but it’s intimate, the new one is slightly louder but no real improvement on overall performance.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“I think this is the best winter scent ever. But here’s the catch, it doesn’t have the best projection or longevity. Hopefully with the new parfum version of this they made it stronger. Scent wise this is a 10/10. But projection longevity wise 4/10.”
