The lavender and lime come through clean and sharp right away, but the musk settles in nicely after an hour so it never gets cloying. Lasts most of my workday without shouting for attention, which is exactly what I wanted.

I wasn't expecting much from a blind buy, but this one surprised me. The bergamot and musk settle into a clean warmth that lasts through my whole workday without ever feeling loud, and the lime keeps it bright on the initial spray.

The lavender and lime come through nicely without the cologne shouting at everyone in the room. I put it on this morning before work and could still catch the musk at dinner, which is exactly the lasting but gentle balance I wanted.
