Jo Malone Cypress & Grapevine Cologne Intense Spray (Originally Without Box) 100ml/3.4oz

First, I must beware you. This isn't love at first spritz. When I sprayed this on my wrists it smelled strongly of an old school barber shop. I pushed on, though, because I know how fragrances change with your chemistry. After a minute or two it transformed into a beautiful, aromatic, musky woodsy scent. Then around two or three hours later it lost some of its muskiness. I could never get a hint of a grape or a fruit scent during any of these phases but during this one I could imagine being at a winery and smelling old casks. At the tail end it softens and it smells just like after it rains in a forest. This cologne is a combination of woods through and through to my nose and is unisex leaning towards masculine. I could smell it for over eight hours and this cologne really projects. Cypress and Grapevine now ranks as one of my favorite JM colognes.
