I think this is what Pegasus should have been. I love the sweet, spicy, woody and almond. There is a subtle floral to soften it up. The center was colored in because the coating was chipped when it the original owner received it. The bottle does not come that way. Just wanted to put that out there. This came from a very reputable and backed source, so I didn't trip off it.

Friendly reminder, tis the season for fakes and knockoffs to hit the streets. Although they are always around, this time of year it ramps up, I am seeing a flood of them hit the FB Marketplace and eBay is full of it. You will see common frags posted multiple time by multiple people, Sauvage, Initio, Valentino, YSL, Chanel, etc. If you can't verify 100% I say just walk away. I actually hit up one person, told them I would like to meet up and compare it to the bottle that I already have and running low on, if this is fake, just ignore me. They read the message and ignored me......lol

Had to give this one a spin. This was my highly successful failure buy from yesterday, ended my 2 week no buy streak. What makes this one special it is the pre-form release. I was able to go get it locally and price was ridiculously in my favor.

Which fragrance house or brand would you never buy because they don't suit you or your skin chemistry? It could even be that you don’t agree with their work ethic or history of shady actions, a good reason now to want to indulge in their fragrance. Please share, we would love to hear your opinion.

I got this in one of the TPG Scent Kits last year, and it's been sitting on the shelf gathering dust. I watched a video the other day showcasing the brand, and realized that I had this, along with their Supermassive Amber fragrance. I sprayed it last night for the first time in over a year, and I was stopped in my tracks. Absolutely stunning fragrance. It's a smokey vanilla that's very masculine. I would swear there is a bit of tobacco in here, but it's not listed in the notes. The dry down is a bit musky, but it's balanced by the smokey vanilla giving it a very complex profile. It's very well blended, and smells high quality. Longevity is a solid 12 hours, though the projection is closer to the body. I can smell it all day long, but it's not so loud as to be noticed beyond about a foot or two. This might be my new favorite vanilla fragrance. I'm going to try the Ambre version from the line later this week, and I see that there's a new Supermassive Oud that was released this year, so I will try to get my hands on that as well.
