Community Verdict
Pros & Cons
- ✅ This is a great introductory perfume... It’s clean, citrusy, and aromatic. It’s generally inoffensive... This EDP performs better than both the EDT and Parfum versions... It easily lasts me 8+ hours on skin and clothes.
- ✅ BdC EDP is very well done... it's your run of the mill extremely versatile blue fragrance... I really, really like it. 8.8/10
- ✅ For me, this is the fragrance I would recommend to someone classy... This is the do it all, any season, fresh smelling woods fragrance.
- ✅ Outlasts a full workday, hands down
- ✅ Leather drydown hits different on fabric
- ✅ Projection is strong for the first three hours
- ✅ Cade and labdanum create real smoke, not a simulation
- ✅ Gave me the aura of a mafia man in a room smoking cigars holding a Tommy gun while drinking wine.
- ✅ Rich amber-oud profile with refined spice and leather nuances
- ✅ Strong performance for the price; long-lasting on skin
- ✅ Projects confidently; draws compliments in the cold
- ❌ I had this when i was 16... now i just feel like it is generic... if you want to smell unique don't buy it
- ❌ I have very mixed feelings... It's absolutely not blind buy safe... I don't like the incense here and weak projection.
- ❌ Too expensive, too generic, too ghosty, too much nothing, also smells like shit.
- ❌ Opening feels medicinal, not everyone stays for the drydown
- ❌ Strong sillage can overwhelm smaller spaces
- ❌ The rhubarb note divides opinion in the heart phase
- ❌ Heavy. Not a fragrance you forget you're wearing
- ❌ Drydown can lean too animalic for some noses
- ❌ Too intense for warm weather and close quarters
- ❌ Opening can be sharp/synthetic to some noses
- ❌ Not suitable for office or school environments
