Newest addition to the collection. This is supposedly a limited release (hoping it’s not). Picked it up from their website at full retail which hurt me deep in my soul lol. Before we get into the notes, this one has several similarities to Renaissance IMO and some differences that make it stand out. In the open you get grapefruit, lemon peel and bergamot. However I definitely am picking up a minty note right when you spray it. It makes the open a nice mint citrus which is awesome. This is where I think it’s similar to renaissance. The open lasts a decent hour before I start to pick up the almond and some cinnamon. The almond isn’t very nutty and slightly sweet. The grapefruit is still there but it’s more subdued now. In the dry down I don’t detect any incense but can smell some vanilla and Vetiver. It’s not an earthy or dirty vetiver more or a clean one. Overall performance was decent with just over 6.5 hours of longevity 5 of which I got some good projection of 1/2 to 1 arms length depending on what I was doing. Moving around definitely caused this one to project better than sitting still. This will be an excellent high heat frag.

Hey guys, quick pause from the brackets for a moment!! I just want to say how genuinely grateful I am for the participation, the conversations and the passion you’ve all brought to The Booze Wars so far. These wars aren’t just about picking winners, they’re about sharing experiences, discovering new scents and giving some well-loved favorites the respect they deserve. My goal has always been twofold: to introduce you to fragrances you may not have explored yet, and at the same time support the ones many of us already love and reach for. None of that works without your votes, your comments and the back-and-forth that makes this community what it is. So thank you for showing up, engaging and making this more than just brackets on a screen. This thing only works because of the #Brotherhood and I don’t take that lightly! Now… let’s finish this the right way! Get out the Vote!
