DR. HENRY JEKYLL 2009 (Dark Delicacies: Great Duets in Horror) : (Company says: A discreet men's cologne of juniper, cumin, verbena, bergamot, mint, and basil splattered with dregs from apothecary bottles.)
In bottle: The bergamot is quite strong. Very perfumey. Wet: It slides towards the masculine on the skin. The juniper and basil come out. It smells a little like leather even though it’s not listed. Slowly, the verbena emerges. I’m not getting the mint, which is all to the good. This is surprisingly brightly herbal, while still staying a cologne. I wasn’t sure at first, but it’s really wearing well on my skin. Dry: The bergamot reemerges, blending pleasantly with the other elements. I think this is the first juniper anything I’ve liked and the mint is light enough not to trip my sensitivities. I was on the fence about ordering this, but I’m glad I did. It’s complex and well suited to my body chemistry.
