    Smells like Robitussin and Vicks vapor rub.
    I really did not like this fragrance. It has a very sharp nose that tingles the same way Vicks vapor rub does. Not for me in the slightest and I would not recommend.

    Good but not fresh
    I wouldn’t call this a fresh scent. It’s definitely earthy but a warm earthy if that makes sense. After it drys the amber and wood combination almost makes a kind of powdery tobacco note. It’s not my favorite but I do like it because it’s different.
