I knew frags are relatively cheaper to make but didn’t expect 6 bucks. https://youtube.com/shorts/gtUsjIHPoio?si=Uo1InFyw8H73u9b0

Started testing my new batch of fragrances. Couldn’t decide what to wear, so I did the classic “close my eyes and pick something from the box.” This is my second ever Spicebomb, and here’s what I think. Fantastic opening that’s true to the Spicebomb name. Some fresh bergamot with black pepper and aldehydes. It’s similar to Dior Homme Sport 2021 but in Spicebomb style. Didn’t really get the dry, toasted cumin that I got in Extreme, which I really liked. The cinnamon quickly follows with a touch of lavender that balances the spices a bit. The pepper stays the whole time. As it dries down, you get the soft musk, labdanum, and leather, which become more prominent. On my T-shirt, the drydown is a bit different, with added sweetness from ambrette, and the peppers are less sharp. Anyway, I quite like this. Spicy, fresh, airy, and lowkey balanced. There’s also this “silvery leather smell sitting in the hot sun” kind of vibe that’s unique. I guess the leather is done in such a way that it comes off metallic. Or is it just me? The performance is where I have a problem. For an EDP, I was expecting an easy eight hours. It started off with good 1.5 ft projection, but 15 minutes later, it was already half a foot. I didn’t mind it at first, but by hour five, it was already a skin scent. So by hour eight, I expect it to vanish completely (it’s been almost six hours). Not a room-filler by any means like some people claim. Maybe it’s the skin chemistry. Because of the intimate projection, I’d say this is great for the office in any season. I need to give it a few more wearings because I didn’t get some of the notes. I would recommend this to everyone. Sample before buying. Overall, I’d give it an 8/10 after the first wearing. If it performs the way it’s intended, then it’s an easy 9/10. Also, in my opinion, if it had a tea note in the opening, it would have been even better. What do you think of this fragrance?

I do believe I have found a hidden gem here gentlemen. Apparently Versace makes fragrances too! In keeping with my blue theme this week I have chosen this very pleasant scent. The vanilla is very inviting and helps calm be so the fruit and amber notes help me settle in for work. It is indeed very fresh smelling as described in the notes picture. I know that this may kind strange but a clothing company can make a great EDT. I guess if Ralph Lauren can do it anyone can. 😆 Have a great day everyone.

Hello gents. Today is Diwali. The festival of lights thats vibrant, loud and unapologetically full of joy. It’s a celebration of energy, passion and new beginnings, so I wanted a scent that truly embodies that feeling. So I went with Versace Eros Flame. It bursts open with fiery spice, settles into creamy vanilla and warm woods, and carries this confident, magnetic aura that feels just right for the day. Wishing everyone a Happy Diwali filled with brightness, love and the perfect scent to match your spark.
