Borntostandout's Smokin Gun EDP opens on spices and smoke before dry woods and leather develop into an amber and musk base, for anyone.
Smokin Gun EDP opens with spices and smoke from the first spray: the spice adds warmth and complexity while the smoke provides the sharp, dark character the name implies. This is one of the house's more direct compositions in its opening statement.
Dry woods and leather nuance in the heart add structure and an animalic quality; the leather is present as a nuance rather than a dominant material, keeping the composition in the smoky-woody register rather than full leather territory. Amber and musk in the base provide warm, diffusive structure. Eight to ten hours on skin.
Smokin Gun EDP suits autumn and winter from afternoon through evening. The smoke and dry woods combination reads most clearly in cooler temperatures. A fragrance for those who prefer dark, smoky oriental compositions.
