Ha! You are at least 200 mi away, so you are probably safe. I actually get complements on it. Much more floral than funk/cat pee on my skin. I think this is one that reacts/projects very differently with different skin chemistry. I also find fragrances with lots of civet, like Kouros and Citrus Paradisi are more wearable on me than they seem to be on others. My dearly departed granddad also wore the Veg all the time, so it really brings back very, very fond memories of childhood times with him.

Main Accords:
EN: woody, earthy, green, fresh spicy, musky
GV: earthy, woody, citrus, green, warm spicy

Hey! Welcome aboard. Be very careful reading this thread, or you'll soon have a lot more in your fragrance wardrobe and a lot less coin in your pocket...

Yes, Bill, I haven't worn it yet, so please let us know what you think. I for one love the coconut/vetiver combination out of the bottle!

I still love this stuff. Once you get past the initial blast of pureed weeds, it's delectable.

Looks interesting, Bill - isn't this a new release? I would love to hear your opinion.

Lee, it is a new release. This is my first wearing, but I really like it. It's a good earthy vetiver. The coconut is subtly noticeable and gives it a bit of complexity I wasn't expecting. We'll see how it wears overall, but I'm enjoying it so far!

Creed Millesime Imperial.
First time wearing it--very nice!

What kind of longevity are people getting out of this?

I was under the impression, this vetiver was VERY minimally blended, Im stunned to hear there is a coconut note.

Tommy Bahama. I think one of the notes is "Liquid Smoke."

That might be what YOU wear, Mr. Dowd, but...what does the pooka wear?

Welcome to B&B!

Woke up feeling lousy...4711 was the scent of the day. My 5 year old daughter said it best when she called it "happy juice." It just makes me feel better when I smell it.

I know I get a solid four hours with no problem, it likely lasts a bit longer, but not to my nose. I have decided that it is a perfect scent for those days when you know you will be putting something else on later, or for those days when you want something to revel in after returning from a long day at work.

Even though it seems like it is bright, and full of energy, I actually find it somewhat relaxing. Not in some meditative sense, but more along the lines of an escape. During warmer months I find a couple of strong pina coladas will do the same thing, but requires a bit more planning to be responsible.
