Would You Marry Me, Baby?
Right off the bat, if you smell it from the sprayer, it has that neat, soapy, comforting bouquet typical of the citrus leaves such as petitgrain, lemon, orange, and other citrus tree leaves. It is a woody, green, citrus, fresh spicy
and pretty simple fragrance, not overpowering but agreeable.
As for the fragrance itself, the prominent yuzu opening is a burst of freshness and very pleasing. Once the sharpness of the zesty yuzu fades, it smells a little like a scented eraser, mixed with an array of enticing spicy and green notes. There's a very delicious green note that surfaces from time to time that's sublime, I think it could be the unusual mandarin leaf greenness, I'm not sure. As I jotted down in the statement, it reminds me of the greenish of CK Truth, without the aquatic accord.
The more the time goes by the more the spicy nutmeg and delicate anise are clearly detectable, supported by a faint and moderate strength leather note, a kind of like sweet suede. In the heart, I detect a sort of sweetness, which is pleasant and not cloying.
The dry down is woody with a nice smoky touch, it releases creamy and exotic sandalwood and luscious tobacco, not overtly power, just right and creates a sultry, luscious foundation that men will want to wear every day or night, at least myself. I'm getting mostly the sandalwood and tobacco by the end, and the overall composition reminds me of a lighter, sweeter, tobacco-infused modern take on Arden for Men Sandalwood.
My personal opinion is a great warm and refined fragrance for a going out to dinner, date, or any type of evening out, this is one of my favorites for when it starts getting chilly outside, it is a fall scent that works fine on cool spring evenings, either. Anyway, with that leathery middle and woody smoky in the base make it feel more Autumn and less Spring. Not a monster of projection, on my skin it has a longevity average of 6 hours and a projection of 3 hours, its sillage is moderate, but more than a skin scent. Then it turns into a comfortable and confidential skin scent.
