OUR TAKE
A very nice citrus, woody and musky scent. The citrus is sharp but also sweet, with a very clean character and the persistent musk signature I associate with Xerjoff. I did not clearly pick out mint, although the fragrance definitely felt green. It is the kind of scent I find difficult to dislike: essentially a beautiful classic cologne translated into a longer-lasting parfum style.
