I am attending a wedding in 2 weeks. I sometimes have a hard time deciding what to wear for certain occasions. I have narrowed down my choices to the following. I am looking for crowd pleasing and passable through the May heat in the Northeast.

A little cooler morning so I’m going with Burberry Hero EDP. My favorite in the line, but the EDT is catching up. Beautiful woods with a little sweetness. Good performance for me.

A&F was never really a thing in Ireland, I came across this one in on a Pharmacy discount shelf of all places. Seems to marketed towards the younger chaps, its a rather plesant and cheap fragrance launched in 2019 from the perfumer Clement Gavarry. It opens up with a nice burst of Citrus and holds a green vibe with some wood & spice throughout. But it also has that soapy shower gel thing going on. It all kicks of with a bright, energizing opening, dominated by a tonic of grapefruit and bergamot. This is sharpened wit the subtle heat of pink pepper. As the fragrance transitions into the heart, it takes on an aromatic, slightly spicy character through a blend of ginger, clary sage & lavender. This middle has a freshness that is both herbal & clean. The dry-down settles into a warm, masculine base where clearwood & moss provide an earthy foundation, while a distinct note of soft suede adds a smooth texture that lingers on the skin. In terms of performance, Authentic is a relatively intimate fragrance with moderate projection. It creates a pleasant scent bubble without being overpowering, making it an excellent choice for office environments or casual close encounters. Its longevity is not great generally lasting 3 to 4 hours. Given its bright citrus and aromatic profile, it is best suited for the spring and summer months, performing exceptionally well in high heat. It is an ideal "everyday" fragrance, perfect for gym sessions etc. I quite like this one, its a fresh everyday scent that makes a change from the CK style of scents. Whilst performance may not be great, at this price, we can cope with that, oh it has a powerful atomiser and magnetic cap. My Rating 6.5/10 Scent 2 Longevity 2 Sillage 1.5 Y/N 1
