Unsurprisingly I've never smelled anything like this in my life! The opening is a pungent and overwhelming, sweet yet savory, gourmand smell of barbeque sauce, mollasus, chipotle chili and pork. It specifically has a pork BBQ vibe to it like this bacon infused hot sauce I have at home. It does on the one hand perfectly evoke a summer barbeque but then later a cold, misty, 5th of November night on the other. The foody bit doesn't last all that long which is kinda a shame but also quite welcome, I mean as much as I love BBQ sauce I'm not sure I want to smell like it. The main body of City on fire....well its smoky of course and what starts out as smokehouse hickory wood chips turns to a more resinous tar like smoke. There's labdanum in here which smooths it out a bit. Then city on fire becomes a bonefide perfume totally worthy of more note than the inital quirkiness would have you believe. I really like it and this is from somebody who tried Jeke for the first time in the same week, I've got to say I think I prefer this? Jeke is quite different and much more intensive but City on Fire is extremely pleasant and wearable when it's dried down. Not massive performance wise but still good and surprising considering how strong and smokey it goes on. The drydown is that long drawn out 'papery' wood pulp thing that I often describe and was the same with the Cobra and Canary one.
