I saw in a lot of places that this was a more masculine take on the BR540 profile, and like… I guess? It’s not a clone of the Extrait, which as far as I can tell IS supposed to be the more “masculine” version of it, it’s the original with the berry brightness turned right the way up and a big dose of pepper shoved in it. It DOES smell nice, it’s either my favourite or second favourite way to smell like 540 that I own, the number of ways I would describe as being “TOO MANY,” halfway on accident I want to add, I didn’t due my due diligence when I picked up a couple of things, this isn’t Aventus where I’ve made peace with the fact that I’m probably going to be buying “Aventus Plus (Add Note Or Accord Here)” until the day I die. It’s just there’s only so much you can do to butch up a fragrance that’s trying to smell like Cotton Candy, it’s either your vibe or it’s not.
