Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
Hooked on it since I was 18: smells like whiskey with an alcoholic kick, super casual, clean, and sporty.
Pleasant and potent scent; you can tell it’s worth the price. Works well in all seasons, a solid choice.
Avon’s beast of a men’s perfume: sexy, clean, and fresh, perfect for cold or hot weather. Smells like Montblanc Emblem to me. Recommended for any man from 15 to 100 years old. Affordable and great for daily wear. Cheers!
I use it at the gym: it smells strong right after application but fades quickly. It’s not a bad smell, but I wouldn’t buy it myself. It was a gift, so it’s fine for that purpose, but that’s where it ends.
