    Best projection ever; a sealed decant made my room smell like him for weeks. It doesn’t smell like pure coffee, but rather that McDonald’s breakfast from the morning: pancakes and boiling maple syrup. It’s delicious, but beware: it’s not wearable in public. You’ll have everyone smelling like breakfast for months.

    Absolute realism: it smells like a freshly opened bag of coffee or a straight black Americano. If you let someone smell it with their eyes closed, they won’t know it’s a perfume. Massive projection and lasts until you shower; the steam reactivates it. People say, ‘Smells good, like coffee’ or ‘Chocolate.’ Wear it in freezing cold; it’s not versatile, but at the right moment, it’ll make you look great. As a collector, it’s a gem: the best coffee I’ve ever heard in perfumery. Highly recommended.

  3. Did anyone say coffee? This is by John Pegg. I remember his videos with the cat and the bloopers, they’re gone now, what a shame. Follow smells like ground coffee, literally, with the same scent and texture. It’s hyper-realistic, intense, with a light vanilla base. It’s linear, strong projection, and good longevity. Unisex. I like it, but it feels incomplete to me: it just smells like beans, no nuances or development. For me, it’s not a perfume; it’s a brutal scent that bores me. The 100ml bottle will last you a lifetime. I’d love to layer it with something sweet, like vanilla or tobacco. Be careful, it stains clothes just like real coffee. An impressive artistic offering, but incomplete to my taste.

    If you’re looking for unisex, high quality, intense coffee with great projection and longevity, try Follow. It opens with very potent roasted beans, then the vanilla and maple add creaminess, making it sweet and balanced. It makes me think of drinking coffee with a scoop of coffee ice cream—a unique and wonderful experience in cold weather, especially at night, where it gives warmth and comfort. Don’t buy it blindly because it’s a different scent, unlike any other coffee fragrance. Would I buy it again? Yes.
