They say:
A woody aromatic fragrance for the man who defies convention, and resists the ordinary every day, finding satisfaction in the unexpected. His fragrance, a provocative blend of citrus and woods, liberates the senses — fresh, clean, profoundly sensual — a signature statement of determination and desire. Be unexpected.
I say:
Top: Lemon and grapefruit.
Heart: Incense and ginger.
Base: Smoky sandalwood.
The middle phase tends to last around four hours on average and the scent itself lasts well - as you’d expect from a brand like Chanel. It does defy convention in that takes a fairly generic formula (citrus turning into wood) and makes it something very wearable, unlike many of it’s cheaper cousins. The bottle is weighty and doesn’t let the scent down, the magnetic cap being plenty powerful enough to do its job.
Where: Good for a first date - inoffensive and sophisticated. Otherwise a good “all round” scent, can be used safely on a daily basis.
Cost: £45 and upwards (for 50ml)
Would I miss if it were stolen? Yes
My rating: 8/10
