First day of vacation so will be spending some time reviewing and posting my SOTD. Today I am wearing Sutton Place which I recently received a decant of. The opening is a strong blast of Leather that is not subtle at all. At 15 minutes I am still picking up a some Leather but also starting to get some sweetness and spice. At 30 minutes the leather has settled down and I am picking up more of the citrus accords. I am also starting to get some floral notes which are balancing out the scent nicely. At dry down, the scent has introduced a slight sweetness from the Vanilla and Amber which is making the fragrance extremely subtle. Performance - The projection of this fragrance is OK with a scent bubble of about 18" for about 90 minutes. Sillage is also OK with a scent trail of about 2 feet for about 90 minutes as well. Longevity is fair with the lasting about 4 to 5 hours on my skin and becoming a skin scent at about hour two.

Amouage isn’t known for their fresh fragrances. But they’re known for their beast mode scents. And I was very excited to find out that they do have some solid fresher fragrances from the house. I was always curious about beach hut man. I purchased a sample due to my area not having many options to find and purchase/sample. After first smelling it I instantly fell in love! I love green fragrances and it’s 100% up my ally so I decided to pull the trigger on a full bottle. This stuff is really strong and will last all day which always seems difficult to find in a fresher scent profile. It smells like very realistic lime and mint being muddled to make a mojito. It has some nice woody notes to balance it out. It’s a more mature type fragrance… say, easily 30’s+. But it doesn’t smell “old”. I’m not the best at picking out notes but it just smells very fresh and green and woody and kinda soapy, minty but a very realistic mint leaf that’s perfectly balanced. This stuff is very well blended and if you haven’t tried it before, you must get your nose on it!
