DGAF

DGAF is my first try of the house of Borntostandout, via their Dark & Drunk Discovery Set, purchased at Twisted Lily, a spicy blend of incense, pepper, sandalwood, rose, musk, sage, and bergamot, a bit fresh, green, warm, and resinous, but mostly spicy and woody, really a classy, versatile blend that, while more apt for cooler weather in terms of its spiciness is still pleasant enough and not too heavy for year-round wearing. It’s sophisticated, feels a bit reminiscent of some classics, while still being a bit modern and provocative, very nicely put together. I immediately regard it as an apt cold weather signature scent, perhaps a little masculine stereotypically but overall pretty unisex. I recall seeing one source describe it as an aromatic fougere but I wouldn’t quite call it a fougere, myself. As with the rest of the line, DGAF is EDP concentration and priced at $210 for 50ml, sold via a few boutiques / shops in the US like Ministry of Scent and Max Aroma. Overall it’s a great first impression of the house, even though it was seeing Drunk Maple that first drew me to the line. DGAF performs well and is very useful and classy, and the pricing is fair enough for current nice perfumery, but it’s not cheap, considering that something Robert Graham Valour accomplishes a similar result, in my opinion, whilst being much more modestly priced. I wish a travel size were available for further testing / less volume, but I’ll have to consider this one some more, though it is quite great, overall. 8 out of 10

I got the Dark & Drunk vial set, and DGAF was one of them. I didn’t care about DGAF before, and all I wanted to try were Smoking’ Gun and Unholy Oud, but this one nailed me. It’s so fresh, light and unique. I was afraid of the pepper note, but I didn’t get it much on my skin, so yayyy. It’s unisex, and suitable for daily and for some hangouts. I would get this as a full-size bottle because I haven’t had anything like this in my collection. So amazing !!!

Unisex, fresh, powdery, aromatic. Office safe yet not boring. Currently becoming my signature scent. Very fresh and long-lasting. Dry down is more incense, sage, and musks. Powerhouse and lasts all day 9+ hours on skin. Not so extreme or crazy as some other BTSO fragrances.

It's light and fresh, but the sandalwood, pepper and incense is there too. Might go ahead and buy this one. This lands exactly in the middle of unisex, imo.

Sexy. My husband and I would fight over the last bottle of this. Hands down.
