I have blind bought all 7 Galleria fragrances. This is my 6th review. I totally get the Layton in this but a smoother, softer version. It opens with an undeniable blast of Layton. Not a sharp and a little sweeter. I get a cranberry scent in this up top. As it dries down , it stays smooth and heads into that Vanilla finish but a darker, woodier vanilla. Not overly sweet. I get the comparison but I wouldn't say it's a direct clone. More of an indirect interpretation that is a four season winner. Great stuff and so far my favorite of the line. The atomizer on Galleria fragrances are beasts as well. If you like Layton then feel free to blind buy away.

I have blind bought all 7 Galleria fragrances and this is my 5th review. Up top I get a strong black licorice and that's it. Screechy as hell. Hard to get into this fragrance for me. After half hour or so, it calms down a little and I can see the tobacco leaf but that licorice never let's up. As it dries it does grab a slight sweetness but that licorice has scarred me by this point. I will say it is unique but that's a good thing because I wouldn't want another version of this. By far the least favorite of mine in a solid line so far.

I blind bought all 7 of Galleria fragrances. This is my 4th review. This was my New Year s.o.t.d. this was the scent I was most excited to take for a run and it didn't disappoint. Up top you have this green citrus with a slight gin like note. Citrus heavy but more of a lemon rind /unripe mandarine with a little green on the skin. In the mid , the green goes away and you have a fresh lemon which sits close to the skin hours on end. It's a deeper Artisan pure with green touches. not ground breaking but man it's good. This will be in rotation spring and summer. If you like artisan pure or Dior homme Cologne than blind buy away. I can see this being a dumb reach in spring especially with that greener fresh opening.

I blind bought all 7 Galleria fragrances and this is my third review. Opens a little fresh and a little dark. The freshness is fleeting and gives way to this hard, darker scent which I'm assuming is the concrete. It sorta smells like your driveway after rain shower in the summer, if that makes any sense. That I get up top and in the mid. The dry down sweetens up a little but fades quick. Don't be afraid of the concrete note. It's amazing imo. So far my favorite from the line but the performance blows! No, seriously poor performance. Skin scent on me within 3 hours.

I blind bought all 7 of Galleria fragrances and this will be my second review. This opens extremely foamy (milk froth) and keeps that note throughout. If you've ever had warm milk before bed, it smells like that milk as it's warming in the pot.
I also get a very anise like scent which really gives this depth. The mid is where the cafe part of the show is. It's not dark or heavy coffee, It's more of the bean itself. There's also a boozy hint. You will continue to get the anise and foam through the mid as well. The dry down gives just the slightest sweetness with foamed milk. Great job on this one! If your looking for a big coffee scent this isn't it but you won't find anything else that smells like it.
