As soon as HWY 1 hit my nose, it was an instant love for me. Ideal in every single way. At times during the mid and dry down I picked up Jub XXV vibes bc it has that heady camphor resin thing going but, with a focus on Hinoki wood. For me projection and sillage was decent at 3-5 hours. Sure, I wish for a little more oomph, but this fragrance can be had for a decent price. In that regard it's an EXCELLENT purchase.

I call it Hwy 1 because it reminds me of that beautiful highway in Northern California. This perfume smells like the redwood forest with its mossy base. Earthy, crisp air and dark woods. It also just sounds better than however you say Hwyl

I love almost everything Georgio Armani when it comes to cologne. This fragrance has a very nice aquatic scent with some subtle fresh spice additions. The scent is phenomenal. Unfortunately, on my skin this fragrance has no lasting power, nor protection. I find myself using 15 sprays minimum. It sits very close to my skin. If I could muster more than a few hours of longevity on this fragrance, it would definitely be a 5 star.

Cheap great fresh fragance

This is a criminally underrated fragrance. The coffee note is quite subtle, but very pleasant. The citrus note from the bergamot is noticeable right off the bat, but doesn’t carry throughout the day. The subtle coffee dry down is partnered with a touch of woody notes from the vetiver. The scent profile is ridiculously simple, but effective. This fragrance would easily be a 5 star across the board, but the longevity is poor, and the projection is poor after the first hour.

I didn't expect to fall in love with a green tea scent in the year 2025, but I think that is what just happened. I've spent years avoiding green tea fragrances, having mentally filed them away with air fresheners and fancy dish soap, the sanitized accord of late-90s department store counters or the chemical approximation haunting hotel lobbies.

One Day Jasmine Tea opens with that unmistakable aroma of a jasmine green tea steeped just a minute too long. There's an emotional precipice there— an elegant pleasure on the verge of becoming bitter, bleak, and brooding on the tongue. But...not quite.

This is the scent of Uncle Iroh's teashop after hours, the quiet moments when he sits alone, brewing one final cup while dust motes drift through evening light. The jasmine here isn't some overly sweet and sultry floral but a stubborn, complex presence that blooms with the same quiet certainty as Iroh's wisdom. "The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all," he might murmur, though I think that's actually from Mulan.

There's a transparency to the composition that cuts through any lingering cloying or animalic concerns – a herbaceous clarity like the mind clearing before a moment of mediation. Something earthen anchors the lightness, the way roots hold soil against rain, preventing erosion without calling attention to their essential work. Between these elements weaves an oolong note, a citrusy orchid thread that connects high and low like the lightning Iroh teaches Zuko to redirect – neither diminishing nor amplifying the current, simply guiding it to where it needs to go.

The fragrance stays steadfast, refusing sentimentality and yet somehow feels like an embrace that contains multitudes. It carries Iroh's complexity—grief for his son, hope for his nephew, and the particular wisdom that comes only after you've lost everything and rebuilt from scratch. It manages to embody everything that made Uncle Iroh a steadying hand on the tiller, regardless of whether you first met him as a child or discovered him as an adult seeking comfort in animated wisdom.

When evening falls on the Jasmine Dragon, what remains is the ghost of petals suspended in cooling liquid, a clean mineral afterimage lingering on skin; an echo of a proverb that only reveals its truth years after you first heard it.

It's definitely not just "hot leaf juice."

Hands down the nest Pear fragrance. It smells like a fresh pear shampoo.
