Journey of Life - Extrait of Dreams

10/10 cologne for all seasons. Your nose will never recover from this but it’s worth it. The name is completely true, as after smelling this cologne my life expectancy was decreased to 1 year. The scent sends your soul straight to the afterlife. Would definetly recommend👍👍👍

a very interesting take on the cacao note, you can smell the high quality ingredients and the longevity is amazing

“Dark grapes. Smoky cacao. Bold longevity. Mysterious.”

Man, this thing is PUNGENT. I sprayed this around the evening and by the time I went to sleep(like 3am) it was still radiating off my skin that I had to sleep with the window open. Even after getting ready for work and showering the next day, it was still shinning through. But the scent is really nice. It has that fruity leather combo that is common for brands to do, but this adds like a cacao element to it and I love it. I grew up around raw cacao, so this just takes me back, just smelling raw bitter and delicious cacao. I personally love fragrances that have a castoreum notes (absolute aphrodisiac by initio, etc.) and you definitely get it in this fragrance, and it gives it an almost fecal barnyardy feel, but It's honestly not bad, and it gives it character. Another one that is on my list but would be reluctant to get it since it would be hard to wear this. Maybe a personal joy type of purchase.

A very strong fragrance, lasts on clothes and linen. Very deep and complex scents, and before dry down it's very overpowering and a bit harsh. Try to spray it on 30 mins to an hour before you attend the event you wear it at for a sweeter, less jarring smell. Otherwise assert your ultra-niche dominance on all the normies. To describe the smell, upon spraying it has a very paint-like smell, incredibly strong smell of grapes and herbs. To me this brings back a smell of a wine reduction sauce my mum used to make for steak dinners when I was younger, so it holds a very special place in my heart. After drydown, the smell of plums, deeper animalistic scents and dark chocolate shine through, and linger for quite a while, leaving a trail. Not your normal fragrance, a risky blind buy. 7.7/10
