This is a much more subtle scent given that it's an EDT, I usually prefer the more "beast mode" fragrances but there's something soothing about this. It lingers close to the skin, you have to get close to smell it and it won't fill a room, but if you stop to smell your wrist (or wherever you sprayed it) and just take a deep breath; it's just so calming. The only reason it's a 4 instead of a 5 for me is the intimate nature compared to something that projects more, but that's just personal preference.

    Man I love this one. I love.mau CdG frags because they're really in their own lane.

      If it was cheaper I'd definitely get a full bottle, but I feel like the amount I'd have to use to meet my beast mode standards would just be wasteful lol.

      Replying to @xathaneal

      Yeah...CdG can be both difficult to source and rarely discounted anywhere. There is a bonus to that in that you don't smell them anywhere. A great choice to just be different

    The whole series is fantastic
