I’m going for a "controversial" streak! After yesterday's mothball-to-rose journey, I’m rocking Scarlet Warrior today. Let’s be real: I’m not the guy who wears "safe" mass-pleasing designers every day. I like scents with some teeth. Viking is easily in my Top 5 Creeds (alongside Royal Oud, Erolfa, Himalaya, and Absolu Aventus), but it comes with a warning label. The last time I wore this, I made the mistake of overspraying. I smelled it for a full 10 hours, but the next day my wife gave me the "talk"—she said I needed to tone it down because people were practically avoiding me! 😂 It’s that sharp, fiery clove and mint; it demands respect, but it can definitely polarize a room. The Dua Extrait Version: This thing is a tank. It captures that "fire and ice" barbershop vibe perfectly, but the concentration makes it even more of a powerhouse than the OG. I want to know where the group stands on this DNA: 1. Do you prefer the bold, spicy heat of the Original Viking? Or do you lean toward the fresher, more citrus-heavy Viking Cologne? 2. And for the Dua fans—have you dared to spray this Extrait in a crowded office yet? My advice: NEVER DO IT.

Good morning Frag Family and happy Tuesday. It’s a brisk start to the day, the kind of cold that wakes you up fast and makes you reach for something bold and comforting. I’m rocking Oud 01 by Swiss Arabian this morning, and it’s doing exactly what it does best. The performance is outstanding with strong longevity that just keeps pushing through the day, wrapping you in that rich, confident oud presence. A perfect scent choice to cut through the chill and carry some warmth and authority into the rest of the week. Stay warm and smell great, fam.
