I felt a powerful need to comment on this after wearing it to a Static-X show last night. But, first: I bought it over a year ago, opened the imp and said "Wooff! Mothbally closet!" and hadn't touched it since. But I was feeling macho last night, so I put it on, hoping to channel my inner cowboy. To my great surprise, it smelled wonderful on me! Vanilla was the strongest part of it, but the cedar was very present in the background. It'll take another go-round to really analyze it, but it was great! My friend, whose most favored scent is Moonrose (and everything she owns smells like roses), said I smelled somewhat masculine, in a good way. The oddest part was that it was only a tiny bit sweet; most oils smell like candy on me, even ones that shouldn't. The most awesome, excellent thing about it, however, was that it survived two and a half hours (mostly) in a mosh pit. I had beer spilled on me, was sweating like a pig, was covered in sweaty guy sweat, and had poured water all over my self in an optimistic attempt to get clean, and I still smelled beauteous! I'm still shocked! Hence the exclamation points!
My point: give those funky-in-the-bottle scents a chance! You never know which will be a winner.
This is going on my second-tier-favorites list.
Hooray!
