After 3 days of the SWY Intensely, I decided I wanted a change for today. I wanted something that was going to last all day without a respray need. I'm busy in the office and traveling today so not having to worry about losing my scent was important. While I was originally going to grab the Tobacco Sapphire (my new favorite) I decided to be "Brave" and grab Bravery from BTV. It's a smooth and relaxing scent. I don't get much spice even Fromm the opening, but woody/amber with some powder and floral are what hit me the most. The amber and the powder are probably the biggest notes, but my nose is not finely tuned into this new hobby of mine. I happen to be a fan of this house, while I know others find it polarizing. The SWY Intensely was wonderful, but longevity was not what I hoped, I will try it again in a week or so to let it rest. and see what it does. Have a great day everyone

Have a presentation and a luncheon today, so I need to impress.

My initial post is shared below: https://www.skool.com/bos/falling-into-the-sea-by-imaginary-authors?p=7e050aaa He I am some 10ish hours later, the scent is now a skin scent, but still on my clothes. I almost thought this would be too feminine at first but once it settled it was fine. Maybe borderline unisex but I wasn’t uncomfortable wearing it. The initial hit was all citrus then the lychee and tropical flowery were the main notes throughout the wear. The citrus was detectable for a long while and didn’t fade quickly like most. I didn’t really get the sand thing but it definitely has a beachy vibe. It’s rather linear and not overly complex but still very enjoyable and pleasant. a warm weather friendly wear. While I wouldn’t go full bottle, I’d get a smaller travel size for the occasional wear or to wear on my annual beach trip.

I've heard so much about this, but have been dragging my feet for some reason. My sample came in today. Geez, what took me so long? This is fantastic!
