Serious And Masculine
Got a sample based upon a fellow fragr's suggestion as an upgrade to Bentley Absolute and DAMN!
I have enjoyed every whiff I get from this. I love this on myself, and it is very masculine, but being it is unisex, this could be incredibly sexy on the right woman. I've picked up on different facets of it but it is mostly linear. Usually that great piquant Cedar-Pepper-Vetiver combo, but sometimes I get a beautifully smooth Leather-Sandlewood note. Halfway through my sample, and I want a big bottle. This shit is straight sexy sexy sex sex. Sweaty, Raw, and Dark. But also Serious. Because Greyland has a very serious feel. I think these two things are what turns people off, and that's ok with me.
My only- and I mean only- gripe is performance. Granted, a big part of a fragrance is how easily you can smell it and for how long, but I am willing to look past the fact that it's pretty much just a skin scent that lasts for 6 hours or so.
The first time I experienced this was a sample I got and admittedly didnt expect much because looking at the pyramid, everything seemed... Ordinary? I know how that sounds, but nothing jumped out at me. But damn if this isn't an example of not always (ever?) being able to judge by reading notes. That first experience, I wore it in the evening and gave it my full attention, and was blown away. It has a very similar opening to Bentley Absolute and Gucci Pour Homme I, with that peppery cedar wood, but also kind of body sweat, note. It is pretty much this for most of the time, and not much projection. But it is so very good.
If you like GPH1 or Bentley Absolute, it's like they had a sexy sweaty baby and named it 'Greyland'.
