Pros & Cons
- ✅ Best performance out of the line and best scent imo.
- ✅ The scent is worth the price and so underrated.
- ✅ This is a monster of sexiness, long lasting 12+ smells amazing n projects well.
- ✅ A gem, and can be bought for cheap on discounters.
- ✅ I don’t understand the hate on this. It’s a unisex spicy floral fragrance with sweet woods at the base. It has the MYSLF DNA but deeper and richer. Smells very good – it probably gets hate because it’s mainstream, but it’s easy to love.
- ✅ My favourite of the line so far. It’s the EDP on steroids – juicier, sweeter, and denser. Orange blossom stays prominent throughout. Less projecting but better overall performance than the EDP.
- ✅ It’s a vibrant and uplifting fragrance with the mix of ginger, bergamot, and cardamom. The choice in spices gives a cooling effect rather than the warmth you might expect.
- ❌ First ten minutes it's just giving: Old man, Piss, Tweed jackets.
- ❌ This shit smells like a headache.
- ❌ Smells like a dupe of Matiere Premiere Encens Suave on the drydown lower quality sweet incense but not bad.
- ❌ I just get a mild sugar and spice vibe from this. Overpriced and could easily be unisex, or an office scent. No longevity or projection. Pass.
- ❌ One honest limitation – if you’re chasing edgy or niche-leaning smells, this will feel a bit too safe. It’s elevated, but not challenging.
