Extria

In the imp I liked this. Strong seawater. Reminded me of being on the beach in Europe. Not a bright sunny beach but an overcast day, the air filled with saltspray and waves coming in. On me however it turned to pure men's cologne with a seawater note. Gave me a headache.

In the bottle: Bright cherry. Not sickly sweet but definitive cherry. Like grown up cherry. Wet: Cherries and musk. Dry Down: Cherry. But matured? The musk blooms and there's a spice to it that plays well. Definitely a keeper for me. Going to let it age a little/try a few more times before I decide if I want a full bottle.

Sigh looking forward to it. Been dying to try BPAL for years so of course I snagged Snake Oil as part of my first order. Baby powder. Completely and utterly on me. Putting it away to age and try again.
