  1. Could I have gotten a bad batch? It lasts like three or four hours and the trail is very faint. I love the smell, but it doesn’t last at all, so I don’t recommend buying blind.

    This is an atomic bomb—it has the highest projection and longevity in the entire collection. It smells dry, smoky, and spiced leather, softened by a touch of iris and a hint of vanilla that round out the fragrance, creating a unique aroma. To me, it’s the best in the brand. It seems made for men, but my girlfriend wears it and it looks spectacular on a woman; it’s totally unisex. I’d wear it all year except in summer; it handles the other three seasons if you mind your sprays (it’s gorgeous on summer nights), but it shines on the coldest winter days and nights. A perfume for special occasions; you’ll definitely turn heads if you wear it.

  4. An absolute powerhouse! It’s definitely the fragrance with the best projection and longevity in the whole collection. It smells dry, loaded with smoke and spiced leather, yet smoothed out by a whisper of iris and a delicate vanilla that round off the scent, giving it a one-of-a-kind character. I think it’s the best in the brand. It might seem made for men, but my girlfriend wears it and it looks stunning on a woman; it’s completely unisex. I’d wear it year-round except in summer; it handles the other seasons if you’re careful with your sprays (it’s beautiful on summer evenings), but it really shines on the coldest winter days and nights. A perfume for special occasions; you’ll certainly catch attention if you wear it.
