Christmas break it finally here! A nice Fougère Friday shave before working down the list of errands before we leave for a snow week in the mountains this weekend.
So, there is a green fougère with bright bergamot hidden in there, but the first hit is a dirty, not quite burnt, but adjacent note, followed by a mouldy wet impression. All this sounds disgusting, but the combination isn’t at all.

How’s the Brut EdT? Stanky?
Not sure how to describe it, but it’s less stanky than Varen, but somehow… harsher?
Harsh seems believable 😎
Brut++;
But the alcohol splash is where it’s at if you want to get that full boomer experience :)
How’s Gothique for you? Anything you could compare it to? I’m really intrigued by it, but not sure yet.
This one’s tricky to describe 😅

Sounds quite interesting!
