“I've purchased at least 20 different colognes over the past year from price ranges of $10-$80 and so far I would rank this as the best when you factor in smell, longevity, and price. On my skin it opens with a smokey pineapple Citrus smell and dries down to a smokey woody smell with the citrus notes still coming through in the background. Very pleasant all around scent but definitely on the darker side and probably works best as a night fragrance..for me at least. You'll see a lot of reviews about the opening being harsh and I can definitely see why. The first 15-20 minutes are extremely strong with a bit of a cleaning product smell...I actually didn't like it when I first sprayed it....but after that initial few minutes it transforms into something awesome so make sure you give yourself time to let this stuff work. Don't apply it right before walking into a social setting. I find that the smokey citrus smell comes into it's own after that intiail 15-20 minutes and at around 30-45 minutes it's settling into that woody scent. The longevity for me is also above average. I can still get whiffs of the sweet smokey wood fragrance on my skin after 8-9 hours and even longer on clothing but its not projecting much at that point..it's more of an up close intimate smell by then. Overall it's an outstanding fragrance for the amount you get for the price and the performance it offers. Will definitely keep a bottle in my collection”
