  • Beaufort London - Fathom V - Definitely vegetal, with a smidge of citrus.
Not the biggest fan
  • PDM - Greenley
  • PDM - Sedley
Somebody mentioned Coach Green as something to check out.

Finally...

SOTD - Argos - Triump of Bacchus

  • The thing I notice most about this joint is the peach.
  • I can smell the "green apple"
  • The tobacco is not the leafy kind - I wish I had a good way to describe it. I kinda get Mancera Red Tobacco, but 10% strength vibes as well.
Interesting, but ultimately not for me.

I think it's a pretty good all around scent. Maybe not a summer day, but pretty much year round, every situation.

I was SHOCKED at how much I liked it. Maybe it's because they're sort of an underdog house. (like Michael Kors, Jimmy Choo, etc)
I like everything Burberry makes and I would still wear Burberry brit as a daily scent if I got a clone. The EDTs just don't last at all. I'm talking 20 minutes later and it's gone.

Copping this next few weeks can't wait:


I'm gonna start dabbing into women's perfume too to see if I like anything from that side. I assume most men won't even try it so the scents will be unique on me.

Akro: Smile

AK-OVERLAY-INGREDIENTS-WEBSITE-SMILE-min_1_5000x.png




NOTES

TOP: Sage, Bergamot

MIDDLE: Natural Raspberry


BASE: Musk


SMILE is our addictive happiness fragrance.

SMILE is a new fragrance inspired by the pursuit of joy and born out of a unique family connection.

Many years ago, as a young girl, Akro founder Anaïs Cresp asked her father, the master perfumer Olivier Cresp, to create a perfume just for her, one that nobody else in the world would have.

Olivier set about creating a scent that was as powerful as it was personal—a bottle full of joy for his daughter to carry through life. To do this, he combined notes of sage, bergamot, and raspberry, building a bright and vivid fragrance that could work at any time and any place. For years, Anaïs kept this scent to herself, but now she wants to share it with the world.

SMILE is a fragrance to brighten your day.

*This the last of the mystery box order. I smell a sour musk that is a lil fruity. This don't last long and weak. I don't know what it is but all the Akro fragrances I have tested have been kind of weak or average at best. :francis:

SOTD - Unique'e - Kutay

One of y'all in this post mentioned this, so shout out to you.

The whisky in this reminds me of one of my favorites, Nasomatto's Baraonda.
Tobacco is brown.. I guess it's a cigar tobacco...
The caramel note is real prominent at the start

Joint is definitely in my wheelhouse, and I would probably like it more if I got it earlier in my fragrance "journey"...
