One of the best Aaron Terence hughes fragrances out there

Let’s start of by saying this thing is a beast mode and a better version of ultra male and as for scent it’s like a starburst made into a juice blended with whipped cream and lots of vanilla with a slight hint of sandalwood and a lot of tonka bean

Overall
Longevity 10/10
Projection/sillage 10/10 (imagine ultramale but 10x stronger)
Scent 9.5/10
Value 10/10 (one of his cheaper ones)

Jack of All Trades, Master of None

I own both hard candys, both sl*ts and recently picked up Kayos last month. Kayos feels like a more casual, easier to wear version of these 2.

There's of course similarities, but it's unique enough and not redundant if you already have the others. It still Aaron's classic sweetness, but the blue rasberry note sticks out and takes it in a different direction. There's also nothing heavy in Kayos like toffee or honey that's found in hard candy or sl*t. This makes it slightly more versatile where it can still be your night out scent but also a daily casual scent in the fall/winter if you want it to be.

Performance is also of course fantastic. I wake up and smell it on my arm the next day. Anyone who says this doesn't last is going noseblind.

I really enjoy this one, but I do like the other fragrances I mentioned more. I'd much rather wear sl*t or sl*t elixir on a night out, I'd much rather wear hard candy elixir on a date night, and I'd likely pick hard candy over Kayos as a casual scent during the day in the fall/winter.

It's kind of a "jack of all trades, master of none" type of fragrance. Like if you just wanted one sweet ATH fragrance you could pick this one up and be done with it. It doesn't smell the best imo or specialize in one specific occasion, but it can do it all if you want it to.

What Kayos does the best that the other fragrances I mentioned don't is just having a slight freshness to it, not having any notes that are too heavy or cloying. This makes it able to be worn in some of the warmer months of the year. Not on a hot summer day or anything but maybe a cool summer night. Where hard candy, sl*t, etc might be too heavy.

Overall this is like a solid 8.5 for me. I love the blue rasberry note, and the fresh creaminess to it. There's just other ATH's I'd be picking over this most of the time.
