As much as I love gatekeeping this fragrance, I have to admit— there’s really nothing like it at all in my fragrance journey. It is just a gorgeous fresh floral leather tobacco scent (to my nose). I have to admit I didn’t get the “tobacco” aspect in it until the drydown, but what I most smell in the beginning is fresh floral leather. To an extent, it was quite strong while still being fresh and mass pleasing. Wearing this feels like being in a new place for the first time, and feeling good about it. Hence its name, which is an abbreviation for Bonifacio Global City. A well-known business center in the Philippines. Other than smelling like a new and clean car interior with some traces of tobacco in it hahah (I promise it’s a good thing). It may not be for everyone, but I’m glad it’s something that I resonate with and gives me gender euphoria as a trans-man. Looking forward to purchasing my backup bottle soon. Kudos to the perfumer, the thriving business, the glimpses of life told in this fragrance, and setting a standard in the local fragrance scenery. Here’s to going big po, Sir Ed and Ma’am Roch! ❤️💛💙

It smells like a new expensive black leather sofa in a heavily carpeted room. It's leathery, with a whiff of sweetness. I can imagine that my boyfriend's leather motor jacket would smell like this. I love it, and personally, I got more compliments with this than Yosi Break. Haha! It's a cleaner take of Yosi Break. It smells ✨expensive✨

For me, DNA of Parfum Astraux has this kind of smell of CR cleaner (in a nice way and acceptable). Some may be off for this smell but that's it. It has this background smell of relaxing oil also. Love!

Fragrantica is tripping this isnt floral at all lol . Citrus and smoky leather is all I get. It does smell a bit synthetic but I do appreciate the scent so it doesnt matter. Brought it to class one time and my friend said it smelled like the inside of a grab , stopped liking it as much after lol 7/10
