I picked up a tester of this and quite enjoy it as I had been looking for a fragrance with a nice black tea accord. What are your thoughts on The Brun?
This was one of the many decants that Ivan generously sent me. I found it warm and comforting, and definitely picked up the smokey tea notes. It wore a little close to the skin, but it is quite cold right now in NE Ohio. I look forward to trying it during hot weather. I'm heading to Florida in a couple of weeks,so perhaps I'll take it with me.
Today, I wore Marc Ecko Blue. My wife received it as a sample, and thinking it was a woman's fragrance, opened it this morning. So as not to waste it, I put it on as I left for church. It is a fairly typical aquatic, with a spicy citrus opening. After thirty minutes, it becomes a rather synthetic, nondescript aquatic that smells like many other mass market fragrances. I could see my high school sons wearing it, but it isn't for me.
