Mid-life Crisis
When sprayed on clothes, the cola accord lingers for hours. Like days after the spray.
But when sprayed on the skin - at least mine - the cola is welcomed with ginger lemon. It has a lovely 'fizzy' opening that feels incredibly classy, fitting for a flirty night out at the bar. About an hour in it settles into a darker mood with the tar, oud, and vetiver coming together. It's quite a contrast from the sparkling opening and I occasionally feel like I'm smelling rubber. After this settles - about 3 hours in - things really settle into an almost sickly cloying vanilla and incense. Felt very generic at this point to me unfortunately.
If you're to wear this one, I suggest spraying on the clothes and your skin so you get the contrast between the sparkling opening and the darker dry down.
It also feels like a younger demographic would wear this, like someone in an awkward young adult phase trying to figure life out. No shade directed with that comment! Just a personal observation. It doesn't quite ooze class, but doesn't quite scream bubbly young energy either; somewhere in the middle.
