Pros & Cons
- ✅ Lasts a full workday without reapplying
- ✅ Warms up in cold weather beautifully
- ✅ The vetiver keeps it from going flat
- ✅ Strangers ask what it is
- ✅ Better than Santal 33 on dry skin
- ✅ Creamy sandalwood without harsh leather
- ✅ Works for both men and women equally
- ✅ Quirks feel intentional, not accidental
- ❌ Projection is genuinely intimate, almost nothing
- ❌ That dill or pickle note isn't for everyone
- ❌ Some find the sillage underwhelming
- ❌ Can feel thin on very dry skin
- ❌ Lasts longer on fabric than skin
