Here is a very affordable alternative to a very well known niche fragrance, and to be fare, this rather enjoyable. It was so good that a sample was turned into a full bottle.This is a bold, luxurious, and highly addictive scent with a rich, boozy, and spicy character. The opening is spicy and boozy. The Cinnamon is warm and prominent, paired with a rich, slightly sweet Rum note, giving it a comforting, liquorish warmth.heart quickly introduces the deep, sophisticated richness of Tobacco, which is smoky but often described as sweet (like pipe tobacco). Sandalwood adds a creamy, velvety woodiness, and Hedione provides a subtle floral lift and smoothness. The dry-down is long-lasting and luxurious, emphasizing the creamy Sandalwood and the lingering, sweet, and smoky warmth of the Tobacco and Rum accord. This is on the runaway train heading towards beastly territory for me, 8+ hours on skin, with a few days on the hoody. It projects quite well and leaves a very noticable scent trail. I've heard that caution is needed when spraying, I say throw caution to the wind and enjoy it. A cold weather, winter wear classic for me, perfect for nights out. My Rating: 8.5/10 Scent: 2.5 Longevity: 2.5 Sillage: 2.5 Y/N: 1

Yesterday I want to a christmas market in Maastricht Netherlands with my mom and I FINALLY found a store that sells niche scents! Specifically Creed, Initio, Xerjoff and Kylian. Safe to say I was in heaven at the time and to give a short ranking of them in advance: 1. Kylian - Quality and scent are almost perfect 2. Initio - Uniqueness carries 3. Creed - Some are pearls, others dull 4. Xerjoff - a bit disappointed really (any recommendations) So yeah, if you guys have any recommendations or questions, feel free to spam my DMs or post. Have a blessed sunday gents.
