no fluff. Just me and six fragrances from six legendary

The Dry Down | French Affair — and I meant every word. Six houses, six different kinds of confidence for spring. My personal standout from this list right now is Héritage by Guerlain, wearing a fragrance from 1992 that still holds up completely is a different kind of feeling. What French house are YOU repping this spring? 👇🏾 #TheDryDown #FrenchHere #FragranceForMen
Background lit.
L'envol is a beautiful musky honey, almost fougere style fragrance, I prefer the edp. This is 1 of only 2 fragrances I love from Cartier next to Roadster.
Héritage is one of the most underappreciated classics in men’s fragrance. The fact that you included it over something obvious says everything
Great video and i enjoyed it and I like Hermes H24 and I'm going to the other fragrances and have a blessed day
Elegance at its purest, I find you to be true inspiration in my journey of discovering the kind of life I want to lead.
Flea is that dude……..s/O BTFG!!!!!!!
This was top notch in style and class brother. The Flee jazz album was a surprise and will have to check it out. Oddly enough, I, too, am a Zegna guy. Keep going!
I just ordered me some products from PF Candle. Thanks Chris for the info and great fragrance content.
Lovely choices there, Chris! Heritage by Guerlain is such a masterpiece in my humble opinion. Can never go wrong with that one. Keep up the great work my friend!
