What Fragrance Did You Use Today?

Apologize for the late reply amigo. It's a light fragrance that has the traditional colonia vibe but, with a twist. It has this spice and sueded leather note that is clean & fresh yet adds some depth and body. There's a nice creamy like woody vibe from the Sandalwood in the drydown that mingles with the musks, florals and light spicy leather notes that ground this fragrance nicely. Still has the Alvarez Gomez colonia dna just not as sharp or vibrant. It's a more mellowed or quasi sophisticated colonia variety. Not the longest lasting but, for the price it's completely worth it with that old world Spanish vibe as if walking down the Valencia sector coming out of the traditional barberias on a Saturday morning after a fresh cut and shave hidden within the storied buildings & establishments.
Oh! Their Colonia is still one of my all time favorites. Might be worth looking into!

Something smooth and cool, to offset YSL PH's more rough and dirty edge.

The weather today is fair, airy, and light with a bright and beautiful sun. Time to switch out the rough musk's and leathers and settle into something fresh to match until summer beats down on florida. Yall know how much i like Polo Green as is, but this is very much if polo green made something sportier and citrusy, instead of ever having made Polo Sport and Polo Blue. The vetiver sage here gives it an almost "leathery without being leather" feel too. Love this stuff and I'm already halfway done with my 2oz bottle.
