The quatre smells exotic af one of my best summer time bangers ive ever purchased. Love the orange smell, smells good for vacations too.

Ross and yourself were spot on about these.🔥

Ginger note is sooo fly. I love it

I saw my man Ross speaking highly of these two and now you give them their flowers as well!! Yeah i'll definitely be grabbing these two VERY VERY soon!!

I can relate Derrick. I live in Texas so it’s warm 10 months out the year so I tend to invest more on warm weather fragrances. I have 6 decants of PDM , Amouge and Tom ford for the winter and I’ve been sitting on those for a year lol. Definitely invest in warm weather fragrances vs cold day scents. 😮

If you watched another KZreadr review it and he clearly states it opens with a bright orange, how did you not know there was orange in it? The only reason you know about it is because you had it explained to you. All I'm saying is we viewers don't care if you can pick out notes from the thin air and tell us certain accords are playing peek-a-boo in the background. We just want to know if it smells good. You can read the notes off and nobody will think less of you.
