Don't know how I feel about the Molecule joint yet. Gotta sit with it a lil more but right now, it's John Cena status.

Molecule 1 is a interesting scent. I'm actually rocking it today at work. You can't really smell it but other people can. I've gotten compliments from it.

SOTD - Casino Royale Nights (Dua) / Molecule 01

CRN is a good 540 impression but something is slightly off that I can't put my finger on just yet. I can't tell if it's the sweetness that's hitting differently, or the overall joint needing to macerate, but it's serviceable nonetheless.



Now, on to these other 2 I mentioned I wanted to shyt on a cpl weeks byke:

- Midnight Caribbean Rendezvous (Hybrid: La Nuit de l’Homme by YSL (Vintage Formulation) & Virgin Island Water by Creed)
- Royal Mandarin Tabacum (Royal Elixir with Byredo's Tobacco Mandarin)


I will fasho be sticking to me, myself & (A)I layering concoctions cuz this shyt here by Dua.....:martin:

For the Midnight joint, It's like they took a coconut cream pie (:dame: ) and mixed it with a pour up of syrup. Don't get me wrong, the lime and spices try to balance it out, but it ain't enough. Dry down is aight, but the opening? Forget it. Not fuccin wit it fr.

As for the Royal jawn, ayo where da tobacco at, b?! All a nicca is gettin' is orange cream pop vibes wit a HINT of sum smoke, if that. I smell more smoke in middle school hallways pickin' up my boys :gucci: . I'm genuinely surprised at the 'fawning' in reviews for both of these...

I'm not even sure what to do with these as I'm not sure I'll ever bother reaching for either. And no, I will not spray em on my car seats cuz they not even worth that fr :ufdup:

Good lord this smells amazing. No need to macerate just straight out the gate whiskey, chestnut, and iris. This smells like Dior Homme Parfum minus the leather. This is booooozy. I can't wait for the fall to come now.

Never smelled YSL's Babycat but people say this is a close dupe. This one actually might need to macerate b/c the opening I'm getting a slight burned rubber smell, but the dry down turns into a spicy vanilla and reminds me of Vertus-Vanilla Oud.
