Mojave

Initially lemon, black pepper, tobacco. Delightfully spicy. This lasts forever on me and changes into something very rich and warm and sweet. I do not at all understand people who say this is linear citrus(i think Abbott montecito is more so), nor do I understand people who say it doesn’t last, because I smell it until I shower and it stays on my clothes for days. This fragrance is really unique and special and it might be what your looking for if you want something rich and complex and sweet without being cloying. I love the contrast of the more masculine opening and more feminine dry down. On me it is a pretty heavy fragrance. On a hot summer day it’s overpowering and the more resinous notes mask the citrus. Any other time I love it.

One of my top 5 favorite fragrances. It’s so minimal yet very effective — reminds me of a smoked whiskey cocktail I once had at a rooftop bar in Seattle. The black peppercorns and ginger hit you first, then the bergamot and tobacco, not too much of one or the other, but perfectly balanced so that they aren’t battling for your attention and are instead existing in harmony. I don’t get too much of the saffron. It isn’t often that a fragrance has such natural and simple ingredients. It just never lasted very long on me, which is a bummer because it’s nearly perfect, in my opinion.

Genuinely obsessed with this fragrance. Fresh but not a cleaning spray dupe like so many other “fresh” fragrances. Spicy but not an assault on the nostrils. I find the notes blend really well into just a crisp dry air vibe. Really does make me nostalgic for hiking in the southwest. New favorite.

Favorite of the brand. There's a beautiful citrus note followed by some sweet tobacco. It's not what I would call "amazing" - but for the price, I'll definitely consider a full bottle. 6/10

Smell transports me to a Wisconsin forest in the summer time. I would definitely buy a full size of this.
