Blaze

6.4

Beverly Hills Polo Club

Sweet · Synthetic · Spicy

Beverly Hills Polo Club Blaze is a men's fragrance built around cardamom and black leather, with sweetness and spice sitting side by side. Vervain and basil sit at the top. Cardamom and black leather lead the heart, and patchouli with cedarwood lays a woody base. The overall feel is sweet, spicy, woody and leathery, with a slightly synthetic edge. Longevity is rated weak and sillage moderate, though the number of votes is small, so treat that as a rough guide. It is classed as a men's scent.

Aiyoku

7.5

Jan Barba · 2020

Citrus · Green · Woody

Jan Barba Aiyoku is a unisex chypre that sets the freshness of vervain against the earthy depth of patchouli, oud and oakmoss.

Its woody, earthy build sits as comfortably on a man's skin as on a woman's. It opens citrusy and green, with vervain carrying that cool edge. In the heart, patchouli and oud come forward and the scent darkens. The base of oakmoss, vetiver, cedarwood and cypriol settles into a resinous, leathery, dry woodiness. Bartosz Puzio's green opening softens the heavier base.
