This is a modern version of an old school barbershop fragrance. It’s a sharp, citrusy, resinous scent. Very mature. It reminds me most of Eau Sauvage Parfum, but with an orange rind note instead of lemon peel, and no cinnamon or anise. This has a darker feel to the freshness than ESP, and I like it more. It’s very well blended/balanced. In the deep dry down the patchouli becomes much more noticeable, which I’m never a fan of, but this is a very pleasant, smooth patchouli. Performance is very strong, I can still smell it the next day.
