The Cape

Update summer 2017: Very hot day and thought I'd give this another try to see how it reacted to my skin on such a sultry day. As I noted previously, sweating a bit really livens this fragrance and brings to the fore a biting ginger note. This is not unpleasant as it helps cut through the thick air and offer a little freshness. Still a simple, casual afternoon fragrance. Nothing offensive but nothing special either. Works modestly in a limited circumstance i.e., cool, misty day, heavy sky and you're walking your dog while thinking about the universe. Needs a little sweat to conjure the ginger and base wood notes.

Blind bought this one and before spraying on me I was nervous it would be too masculine but it dries down on me something very sexy comes forward almost like gingerbready. It opens up very bright and fresh so it’s almost like a Summer take on it. Alone would be great for Spring and Summer but mixed with a warmer gourmand would make a great Autumn combination!

this fragrance leans super masculine, to the point where (just like most from abbott new york city) I think it should just be labeled male. it does smell very good, and I like it on my fiance, but I wouldn't wear it myself. super aquatic & fresh, and it matches the description very well.

It is a very basic masculine fragrance. Opens on my skin with a very strong mint note, with some other greens and citruses. It dries down into a nice spicy ginger and moss scent. Overall, decent but not a standout or unique fragrance in any way.

Mossy ginger. Pleasant but not special. It's the kind of fragrance for times when you want to wear something but save the good stuff for later.
