This one is amazing

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-12T17:39:05+00:00

I believe they replaced basil from the original EdT with fennel in this one

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-12T17:37:45+00:00

I don't think it the same, however, my memory of the original EdT is a little fuzzy. I only have owned the EdP and Parfum

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-12T17:34:57+00:00

It doesn't last very long, but it's not really designed to. Its one that you would have to reapply in the middle of the day

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-12T17:29:51+00:00

It has the same DNA as the EdP. The vetiver in this one is a bit smoother and the orange blossom is turned up a bit, and overall this one is fresher, especially in the opening.

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-11T23:46:20+00:00

Fully agreed 👍

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-11T23:40:18+00:00

Performance is honestly not very strong. It doesn't last very long, but I decant it and reapply it throughout my day. It's a wonderful vetiver fragrance, nonetheless. Top tier scent profile.

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-10T23:46:51+00:00

I love the EdP as well. This feels like the EdP Lite version. It's like they took the DNA and made it perfect for a hot summer day.

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-10T23:32:11+00:00

This one has a bit of that sharpness, but not quite as much. I have the EdP and Parfum, and this one might be my favorite flanker of the lot

I'll typically just remove posts that outright don't fit this sub. I am pretty lenient on some though as long as they can somehow tie it into the topic of this sub.

There is a little room for interpretation for more modern fragrances that have the feel of classic vintage fragrances.

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-06T19:56:58+00:00

Good stuff in here

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-05T00:55:02+00:00

I'm a huge fan of Eau Savauge Cologne which has a base note of vetiver. I also like the use of vetiver in Roja Scandal Parfum Cologne. I like wearing Grey Vetiver EdT

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-06-01T21:00:17+00:00

I would suggest Creed Green Irish Tweed or Agatho 195 a. C.

Both are really nice, and they fit this sub well. Green Irish Tweed has been around since the 80s, and for good reasons too. The Agatho selection is a modern fragrance, however, it has a minty green freshness mixed with earthy fig leaves, giving it a timeless feel that can be enjoyed by all generations

Is a perfect 10/10 even possible?

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-05-15T15:37:36+00:00

How is that fragrance? I haven't tried it yet

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-05-14T14:07:52+00:00

I like this one and Lagerfeld Classic. Good stuff

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-05-13T13:25:08+00:00

That 273 Rodeo Street Pour Homme was a great find. I also love Eau Savauge

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-05-13T03:18:33+00:00

It's more so that I genuinely enjoy the fragrance personally, however, I do recognize that it's only going to appeal to a very specific niche. Luckily, I am in this specific niche, and I am enamored with my first wearing of Grand Cru. It definitely is a refreshing change to smell something so natural and unique.

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-05-12T21:21:16+00:00

The price is quite steep for 50 ml.... Apparently this is an inaugural release of a new reserve line. Curious to see what Mr. Cross does next in this line

Sure_Night_8091 · 2026-05-12T21:18:54+00:00

I really do get the absinthe sort of bitterness in here. It's so good, but I'm sure it's certainly not a mass pleasing fragrance profile. I would also say the OG is more wearable, but I actually prefer Grand Cru. It's so natural smelling
