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.
