What are your strongest winter scents?
- #discussion
The most strong, aggressive stuff you've got.
For me, it's these:
- BORNTOSTANDOUT Black Mango This smells like overripe extra sweet starting-to-ferment mangoes. With leather and oud. The opening is way too sweet. The dry down is kinda nasty, with a hint of mango sweetness sufficient to make it nastier. The nuclear performance doesn't help either. I'm too scared to spray it at home now, it persists for days.
- Bvlgari Falkar This stuff is serious. Super dry leather and oud with a hint of petroleum in the opening. There is also some "black" musk in the dry down. Everything about this is black. Somewhat animalic too.
- Amouage Interlude Man Weird savory smoky oregano opening. The drydown is still smoky and dusty but there's a prominent amber note. This has a beautiful vibe, it really does feel like "peace and introspection in the middle of armageddon." or "finally belonging, even if chaos is still raging around you." But it's still far from an easy wear.
