Dark and sticky scent that just doesn’t quite convince me. The opening is very smoky with a bitter liquor note that doesn’t grab me. The drydown is more bearable, but it disappears right at the skin and projects almost nothing. The fact that it doesn’t last long doesn’t bother me since it doesn’t win me over; it was interesting to try, and that’s all.

Burning Ben evokes a pool hall for me: smoke, confinement, bitter coffee, and burning wood. Sometimes sweet, other times resinous or outright smoky, it’s a characterful chimera. It reminds me of Beaufort London, with that artistic and beastly vibe, but here it’s more enjoyable and subtly masculine. I agree with Lioncourt: it’s aged, masculine, and retro. I think the performance is good and it suits cold climates, though that’s just my experience. Personally, I don’t see myself wearing it, but if it’s mysterious and on a man with personality and a bit more maturity, it would be perfect. Rating: 7.5/10

An interesting fragrance where smoky, tobacco, and perhaps coffee notes stand out over a spiced leather base. I associate it with charismatic men from 20th-century bars. It’s dark, yet warm. Even though described this way it doesn’t seem original, I can’t find similar scents and it has personality. In my case, it’s not powerful in the trail or projection. The skin longevity is short; for a quality niche, performance isn’t its strong suit.
