tombstone [dude review]
vanilla and cedar hit you as soon as you crack the bottle. i tried using an imp dab on my wrists and neck initially, but noticed the scent didnt stick for very long. starts off as very potent cedar + vanilla, then after about an hour or two the cedar wears thin and the dominant note becomes (or remains, i should say) vanilla. my nose isnt yet as keen as other boardmembers (give it time ), so the vanilla mightve had the sassafras traces, but i cant tell.
i later made my imp into a spray (the whole imp + 3.5ish mL of everclear into an 8mL mister), and the scent seemed to stay with me a little longer. the cedar still wears out quickly, but the warm vanilla lasts quite a while.
a couple days ago i made the fortunate mistake (do the germans have a word for that?) of spraying myself -twice- in my car, and both i and the auto were drowned in sassa-cedar-illa. ...but it still smelled delicious.
despite the warm vanilla tones after the cedar dissipates, ive been told by me-sniffers that it's still a decidedly masculine scent, but i think a gal could wear it quite nicely.
oh, btw this scent is fantasmorific. when i wear it, i constantly sniff myself.
i dont think this has been asked before:
are there any scents that will hold up against a lot of wind buffeting? to be more specific: im constantly on a motorcycle, and im looking for a few scents that wont dissipate by the time i hop off.
(i suppose an obvious solution is to just apply a scent *after* my rides, but that would make way too much sense. )
any suggestions?
