Hey Brotherhood, Before I say any words, let me begin by apologizing to you all for a sudden absence. It was intentional. I got myself a new job, and it was very important for me to establish myself firm here. So, if some of you have heard of the book, "The First 90 Days" by Michael D Watkins, you would understand the importance of this. Its been a great new beginning and now I'm looking forward to continue contributing to the community I love. Do drop in a comment for our friendship and continued association.

This is an easy to wear fragrance. Best way to describe it is ADG EDT with a touch of blueberry more lime and no neroli. I got a solid 6.5 hours of longevity with moderate projection of about 2 feet. It’s a good frag for spring.

After waiting months for it to arrive at my local stores, I finally had the chance to test Torino 25 on skin, and the results were not what I expected. When I smelled it on paper and in the air last week, it seemed very promising; however, today’s skin test was a total disappointment. To my surprise, the fragrance actually triggered a migraine. The listed notes include rhubarb, grapefruit, ginger, and saffron at the top, followed by juniper, suede, and leather in the heart, with a base of amber, vetiver, and musk. Despite that profile, all I could detect was a sharp, "screechy" mix of saffron and suede/leather. While I can usually wear leather notes, this particular blend just isn't for me. I couldn't even get through a full breakdown because I had to wash it off to manage the migraine. I know some of you might really enjoy this one or may even consider it a masterpiece, but for me, at this point, it is a pass. I’ll give it one more try eventually just to ensure I wasn't already in the middle of a flare-up, but after the disappointment of T23, I’ve decided I won't buy this just for the sake of completing the collection.
