kept smelling my wrist for the first hour — the resemblance is that strong. i wore it to work and three coworkers asked about it. a new signature for me, no doubt.
- Ibrahim PittmanVerified buyer
if the original ever gets reformulated, i'll just wear this instead. on clothes it lasts forever, on skin around 5-6 hours which is fine. a new signature for me, no doubt.
