Real talk
This is the fragrance that started the whole 'budget Le Mâle' conversation for a reason. Bold, sweet, unapologetically masculine. If that DNA appeals, the value here is absurd.Gold
Mint, fruit, and warmth don't always cohabitate well. Here they do, arranged into a fragrance that wants to be liked and succeeds. The tonka-cedar drydown is the real win, warm without becoming.Eros
