![]() ![]() As the ozone-lemon-leather notes recede, sweet incense and cedar notes emerge. The fragrance opens with an ozone-lemon accord which is followed by a talc-y (super-light) leather note. Only the Brave contains lemon, leather, cedar and amber. Today's scent, Diesel Only the Brave, is not innovative or "strange", not by a long shot (it reminds me of Zirh Ikon for one), but I'm partial to its components, and I like it. If I come across a fragrance full of lemon, orange, petitgrain, a hint of vetiver and wood - chances are good I'll enjoy it, even if there are 100 other fragrances that smell pretty much the same. ![]() ![]() Me? I like citrus perfumes, leather scents, smoky/incense fragrances, and vetiver and tea colognes of all types. Perfume addicts are inclined to enjoy categories of scents: ambers, vanilla fragrances, rose perfumes, mossy aldehydes. After my Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme review posted last week, many men wrote me at my Now Smell This email address "confessing" their love for L'Homme these men were unwilling to "admit" their admiration for L'Homme in my review's comments section because I called the fragrance "standard-issue men's perfume." I think women are more willing to proclaim: " Call this perfume crap if you like.but I LOVE it!" All you sensitive perfumistos out there: I have a confession to make - I, too, like my fair share of "standard-issue" men's fragrances. ![]()
