The take

What works

  • Cherry-licorice-vanilla blend with a smoky black-tea twist
  • Distinctive enough that wearers consistently get questions
  • Excellent longevity and projection — earns its compliment-magnet rep

Trade-offs

  • Cherry-licorice combo is polarizing — sample first
  • Easily becomes cloying with over-application
Smells like
