Sensual Vetiver. I purchased this as a blind buy in a combo set with Refreshing Ginger, two limited edition scents by Herrera that build upon the original Herrera for men. I am glad I did because I now have a new favorite top five scent. I'm new here so bare with me when I try to describe the smell. To me it smells like a mix of beeswax/honey and vetiver. The vetiver is dirtier/rougher than Guerlains Vetiver or Carvens, and serves to balance out the honey smells which could be a touch too cloying without it. The longevity on my skin is incredible, pushing 12 hours now with no sign of stopping. The drydown is fairly linear but the vetiver seems to fade in and out so one minute I smell honey then the next I smell vetiver. It's brilliant, smells great on my skin, and it was dirt cheap. Easily in my top 5 list now. I will write about the Ginger after wearing it tomorrow.
Fruit de Bois by Jean Charles Brosseau. Hmmmm. Easiest way to describe it is Coriolan mixed with and Black Code by Armani. A nice grapefruit and sage opening drying down to a powdery mix of amber and light woods. Not a powerhours, stays close to the skin. I like it alot because I liked Coriolan but thought it was rather dull and I liked Black Code's sage but not the vanilla I picked up. A very nice office fragrance and you can't beat the price.
