I could inhale a whole bottle
Words could not describe how much I LOVE this smell. I don’t know why, but it just feels so good wearing this.
The smell really is amazing - it’s so clean, masculine and the way it beautifully envelopes you when you spray it on is just perfect. The marine freshness paired with a deeper leather (it’s admittedly a fairly subtle leather) just really makes this fragrance super unique without being weird.
Unfortunately for me it doesn’t last too long - however I’m aware this is not the case for most people - and I’m an unfortunate exception. It’s quite sad - given that I love this as much as I do, but such is life with randomised skin chemistry I suppose. My solution to this was simply decanting 5ml and reapplying throughout the day - however I doubt most would need to go through what I had to.
I absolutely would buy more bottles once I run out. I didn’t think this would become such a favourite since it was a blind buy!

A weirdly pleasant leather and smoke
It should be noted this fragrance was intended by Aaron to be layered - spraying this and then spraying KxxT on top, as Aaron himself says in his video covering the “Plus series.” This pairing is absolutely delightful - as KxxT on its own became one of my favourites - the layering combo just makes it deeper and stronger.
When it comes to KxxT+ on its own, to be honest the first time I sprayed this - I really thought I’d never get used to it. My preference in fragrances are usually lighter and fresh - whether that’s fresh fruit notes like citruses, marine notes or raspberry (which is supposed to be in this fragrance, though it is quite hard to notice as it’s weak compared to the strong leather and “cocaine” note.)
The second time I sprayed it - I was shocked by how pleasant I found it. And with each use I somehow became addicted to the scent (the website clearly states that there are no narcotics in this fragrance.) I have now come to love this fragrance on its own.
I’m not quite sure what “cocaine” is supposed to smell like - but in this what I get is a slightly powdery-chemical and floral scent - which I assume is the note intended. Honestly it’s quite pleasant.
Overall value for money - this and KxxT on Aaron’s website sells for GBP69 so you’re getting 30ml of two fragrances. These are quite strong - so you really are getting great value for money.
The downside is - a scent with these notes aren’t going to be as versatile - you’d probably have a hard time making this appropriate for the office for example. That being said - I try to wear this (layered combo) whenever I can get the excuse to - it’s just that good!

Passion fruit people pleaser
This is most definitely a passion fruit heavy fragrance. My experience with passion fruit has mainly either been in (1) tropical fruit juices or (2) shampoos and body wash. So to me - it mainly smells sweet and clean.
Unless you’re in a culture which hates perfume or you’re in an environment in which having fragrance on is inappropriate - this really won’t offend anyone.
The “juice” itself is quite potent - so a little does go a long way. Be careful not to overspray!
Value for money - this sells for GBP45 and the bottle is 30ml as of writing this - so that’s £1.50/ml. This is pretty competitive in terms of pricing - especially for a niche fragrance.
This isn’t a fragrance which is going to take you on a wild journey, but instead it delivers on consistency and delivering what it intends to - a delightfully sweet and clean scent.

Absolutely amazing, playful and unique.
I never smelt cocaine, nor been in a sex club (nor do I intend to) so I honestly don’t get the scent associations with those environments.
What I do get primarily is a delightful leather and raspberry which is done really really well. Whenever I wear it - I get wafts of the scent intermittently and it just feels amazing.
The projection the first 2-3 hours is really strong and it sticks to clothes well. It does last a long while on my skin however it does get hard to tell given how easily nose-blind I can become to this fragrance.
This stuff is also really strong - I’m usually an oversprayer however I find myself having to be very careful and intentional with how much I spray with this!
The bottle though I’m not the biggest fan of how it looks - it is very functional. Perfect size and form factor for travel (30ml) and no complaints regarding the atomiser. If you were out all day and needed to apply fragrance before your evening plans - this bottle certainly won’t stop you.
In the UK - this sells for £30 as at the date of writing this, so it’s about £1/ml which I think is fantastic value for money - especially given the previous point regarding how strong this is.
Unfortunately with fragrances like these it’s hard to get small samples - so if you can afford the blind buy - I would just say go for it if your financial situation allows for it.
I really want to try KxxT+ next - as it seems to be more base note heavy and Aaron himself recommended layering it with this one in his video covering the fragrance.
