Huit VIII

Very reminiscent of Spicebomb Fresh, but much longer lasting and has more substance to it, probably won't play as well in the heat, but better in just about every other way. I much prefer Spicebomb Metallic Musk to SBF anyways, but that's a whole different conversation. There's a synthetic bergamot in the opening that I don't really care for, after that starts to fade the scent becomes much more palatable. It's basically Spicebomb Fresh on steroids with a hint of warm cinnamon and pink pepper very reminiscent of l'Occitane Eau des Baux, which is a cold weather favorite of mine. Longevity and projection are very good, lasting a strong 8 hours with a good sized scent bubble. Maceration improves the longevity and smooths out some of the rougher edges. This scent is also a close cousin of Initio Rehab. I would say this is like a Parfum concentration hybrid of Spicebomb Fresh with Initio Rehab (the lavender and bergamot). 8.5/10 and the price is excellent. Got my bottle for $35 from Triple Traders. If you like the SB DNA, you will like this.

just bought it now and i decided to write my review before testing the performance its of course has the spicebomb DNA , but with clear twist its spicebomb but with more COLD notes and citruses , i also smell CARDAMOM TEA , its not listed but i can smell it and dont know from where it comes. this addition make it NEW versatility and you can use it even in fall not only the very cold weather ! I think its not a clone .. its a mix or twist. the fragrance is very nice , like a clean rich handsome guy with quiet character. for 35$ its worth the double. I will test the performance in the next days.

Absolutely love this scent. It's sweet, spicy and dark. The strong pink pepper together with the loud cinnamon and muted tobacco together create an additional perceived note of cardamom (even though it's unlisted). Everything combined, this scent is reminiscent of strong, warm, sweet spiced black tea with beautiful muted tobacco as the backbone. It's so comforting, both on clothes and on skin. It projects well. The bottle and packaging is top notch, too.

"North stag huit viii" is a 85% Spicebomb clone for sure. At first this started with a good solid 6-7hrs persistent performance, where pepper becomes more dominant than other notes. Three months later this became a room filler for me. A good strong 7-9hrs projection, where now the grapefruit starts to become more loud. I don't see a reason why this can't be worn all year round. And I think it's very underrated too

Good projection and longevity for me (9-10 hours). 80-85% similar to Spicebomb, the spice and tobacco is there. What made me think is that the tobacco note in here somewhat similar to the TF Tobacco Vanille (slightly similar, same vibes). Good perfume for the price, monster performance
