  • Full wear
  • Tested at home
  • On skin

On paper, this was 5 stars to me, but once on my skin, it did some wild things. First, it opened almost medicinal, like cough syrup mixed with vapor rub, almost something close to tiger balm. As it dried down, it seemed to oscillate between warm and cool, then eventually settled into a nice, rich, deep woody, wine scent with a hint of fruit sweetness.

As a house, I’ve come to expect Bohoboco to do their own, interesting things and somehow, they still surprised me. I don’t need a full bottle of this before Polish Potatoes or Mango Yuzu Gasoline, but it’s unique enough, that I’d love to add it to my collection eventually.
