You guys.

This might be THE ONE.

[granted i’m only three samples in but whatever, i’m in love]

When I first sprayed it on myself this morning I was cringing.

It was harsh and just plain awful.

Despite being “unisex” I thought this smelled pretty manly; funny enough it definitely isn’t what I would want my man to smell like. While I was tempted to go try and scrub it off, I decided to wait.

Thankkkkk fuck I did.

Five minutes later I was holding my wrists to my nose, inhaling deeply.

It’s deep, dark and mysterious. Totally sexy but totally wearable day or night.

[i’ll wear it any chance i get]

I feel like it embodies everything about the current version of me and where I am in life right now.

The patchouli is one of the strongest notes and while I’m not typically a big fan, it’s fucking wonderful in this fragrance. The rum comes in and out and whenever you get a hint of the vanilla it’s truly a bewitching scent.

At $225 for 50ml it’s not the exactly the most money conscious choice for a new everyday scent (but I was already expecting this). I’m leaning towards naming this a must have, and this could very well be the new HLC signature.
