Wrapping up a week of meetings and decided to go with this Citrus Gourmand scent. The opening is a sweet Honey scent that projects quite well. At 15 minutes the projection of this fragrance is quite intense. The sweetness has settled down, but I have still have not picked up on any of the citrus. To my nose the scent went right into the mid notes with a slight spiciness from the Cinnamon and a touch of florals. At 30 minutes the fragrance is maintaining the sweet and floral scent profile. I am starting to pick up some of the Tobacco and when combined with the Honey it smells amazing. 60 minutes into the wear I am picking up the sweetness from the Vanilla/Tonka. To my nose there is definitely a difference between the sweetness of the Honey and the Vanilla/Tonka. The Vanilla/Tonka is more creamy and nutty but has a greater subtleness than the Honey. The dry down of this fragrance is a sweet and smokey scent that is blended extremely well. Projection is Very Good throughout the wear with a scent bubble of 2+ feet for the first 2 hours minimum. Longevity on my skin is 8+ hours. This is definitely a full bottle worthy fragrance. Sprays were 4 on neck and 1 on each wrist.

I have Christmas dinner at the country club on Monday. My collection has wildly changed since last year's dinner. Last year I wore FW Suits, an excellent alternative to YSL Tuxedo. Looking for some ideas. Maybe I have it or something in that space. What say you? Some that I am thinking of - J'Adoube - Grand Master - Mentor - Oajan - Intense Cafe
