Green and Mean
Varen is a beautiful, sharp, green lavender full of enough oakmoss to give the IFRA the proverbial finger.
Out of the way, barbershop fougeres! Your creamy pleasantness, floral notes, and safe oakmoss substitutes are but an obstruction in the path of a REAL fougère! Move aside as Varen is about to...
Wait, has it been four hours already? It appears it's time for our dear Varen to take a skin (scent) nap. Five hours, you say? Well, that's enough work for today: it's time for Varen to clock-out and call it a day. Until next time, Varen.
Yes, Varen is a beautiful green scent that does not last very long unlike other Stirling Eau de Toilette's in my collection (Barbershop and Stirling Spice). As a result, I wonder whether or not oakmoss is as ideal of an ingredient that many of us in this hobby believe it to be.
Edit 07/10/2022: I regret to say that I based my review of its performance based on a wrist spraying.
After many full wears since then, I'd like to revise my performance review and say it performs really well. The sillage isn't far, but you will be surrounded by a nice, dense scent bubble that you will smell until scrubbed.
