SmellsPrettyGood2Me Report post Posted April 22 With the caveat that I applied this fresh out of the mailbox today, I'm on the (oak) fence. Wet to dry down, there is not much difference in how the scent evolves on my skin. I'm getting a lot of oak in a very hewn-stack-of-2x4s sort of way. The brown sugar is lacking the molasses-like quality that I was hoping would bring some warmth to the scent. This is not a foody fragrance, leaning more along the lines of a cologne-y "bring me your lumbersexuals or bring me death!!" vibe. Will put it away for a few weeks and see how it develops with some resting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elspethdixon Report post Posted May 16 Brown Sugar and Oak is great on first application - it’s the same dry, clean oak note that I love so much in Antikythera Mechanism, lightly sweetened by what smells less like brown sugar and more like one of BPAL’s sugary musks. Sadly, it quickly goes fuzzy/almost soapy on the drydown and loses the oak note. I’m going to chalk this one up to a skin chemistry failure, because the oak is still detectable on my hair, where there’s no fuzzy soap in sight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
