Sexy pencil shavings in the gym

After hearing so much good (and bad) about this scent I had the opportunity to test and buy this on my recent US trip. As a German it is basically impossible to get my hands on this for a reasonable price.
My first contact in a Sephora with the spray wasn’t exactly what I call love at first sight, it was more like “Nah, I don’t have to spend money on this.” I can’t recall what exactly bothered me, but it just had nothing to do with a nice skin scent.
On a different day I gave it a second chance and tried the solid. This time I found it much more pleasurable and my husband also liked it.
A couple days passed and somehow I couldn’t forget it, so I had to get it as a spray…solids just aren’t my thing.
Today I wore it as my gym fragrance and at first the head notes hit me like somebody threw some pencils or much more their shavings at me. I remember that I had colored pencils at my grandmas, they’ve been there for forever. The whole cabinet they were stored in smelled like them.
But do I really wanna smell like this childhood memory? No, for sure not! And luckily I don’t have to. After a few minutes and especially during my workout on the treadmill it evolved into a sexy musky warm vanilla and is lasting for more than 8h…even after the shower.
Surely this perfume isn’t a must have, but it is something I can spray on when I don’t feel “perfumy”.
Finally a skin scent that I don’t hate…JHAG NAP makes me feel nauseous and is so potent on my skin that I can’t take it.
