What does Only The Brave High smell like?
Grapefruit and yuzu lead, with peppermint and ginger adding a cool, lightly spicy edge. Geranium, amber and woody notes stay in the background and soften the whole, leaving an aquatic, slightly sweet feel. The accords also show a synthetic side.
Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it leaves no heavy trail. Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter gets the fewest votes. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, with some votes for sport and business. Half of voters call it masculine, and nearly as many call it modern. Yves Saint Laurent Y (Eau Fraîche) and Hugo Boss Boss Bottled Tonic have a close profile.
