I was off today so I thought I would take another ride around to see if I could find the new iPhone in Burgundy. This is the second trip I've made out and I have had no luck whatsoever. I'm so tired of looking at my cracked phone screen at this point and I am so ready for an upgrade. Hopefully I can get my hands on one before Christmas. In the meantime -I got through another Molton Brown shower gel from my sampler kit.
Molton Brown claims:
Usually you can tell what a Molton Brown scent will be from the name- but Neon Amber doesn't really tell me a whole lot. So I had no idea what to expect. There is a descirption- but you can never really get a sense of what something will smell like based on the description. At least not in this case. It's supposed to be elemi (I have no idea what that smells like), Tonka, and ambroxan. Ambroxan is everywhere and in everything and I don't think it's a note that does anything for me.
What this actually smells like is a men's cologne. Not a generic men's cologne. It's unique- at least to me. I don't have a lot of experience with men's cologne. I'm not sure how to describe it. It just smells like a nice men's cologne with a little dustiness to it (not in a bad way.)
It's a nice scent. And very intoxicating in the shower but doesn't really hang around afterwards. It's not for me at all. I like a unisex scent in the shower...but not really so much into cologne type scents. But that's OK. Not everything has to be for me. It's a good quality scent and I imagine it would make a nice gift for those that love these type of scents.
Other than that...it's Molton Brown. So it's pricey. But it works well, lathers nicely and rinses clean. It also sticks to the skin a little bit which most soaps do not.
I have the tiny size which is good for about 2/3 uses since I bought the sampler pack. It's the perfect way to try a bunch of their scents without committing the cash on the scent I may or may not like. I really like the size and the bottle has the same feel as the full size- just at a better price.
