Cast away. I'm stuck on the island.
The coffee house is only open for the top note.
If only my volleyball were named Mr. Halston...
Not my island.

Not as great as the coffee scent turned out to be...

The notes sound pretty good at first. What a pity.

Probably not my island either.

I'm with Jonas on this one; the brand has left me pretty indifferent so far. I'll send a lifeboat just in case the poor souls falter halfway 🛟

What’s the carrot doing in the coffee :-)
Yeah, definitely better in Halston.

So far, the brand hasn't really been my thing.

Oh, what a pity - the top note and the cinnamon sounded so good to me...

I believe there's a lot of confusion in the list of notes. My nose can't possibly perceive them in such a jumbled and chronologically incorrect way. 😅

The patch-coffee top note saves it to an acceptable rating. Unfortunately, the scent quickly turns into a sweet-cinnamon mediocrity. Creed's Centaurus might be a point of comparison, even though it's better balanced with the tobacco and works overall more effectively.
For those who enjoy the occasionally peeking, not overly sugary cinnamon note, Halston Z-14 offers it in a much better way.
In summary, we have a really nice and interesting top note of pleasant coffee and some truly lovely patchouli. After that, it shifts to a fruit-water cinnamon with a hint of cardamom and a touch of vanilla.
