Byredo Bald ahh freak review
Genuinely impressed with this one. It doesn't have the projection of Imagination, but it has some of the best longevity in my whole collection. I can still smell it on the tester strip from last Saturday, and it lasts 12 hours or
more on my skin. Its soft, so I doubt it projects much, but I dont care.
Yesterday, my nose was finally able to pick up on the woody notes instead of the usual slightly sweet, slightly creamy, citrus bomb I was used to smelling. Sometimes it smells borderline gourmand to my nose, similar to the BR540 DNA. I have been wearing it everyday since last Saturday and have yet to be bored of it. Likely 30-50 sprays used and the bottle still looks brand new and full. Likely will never finish it, but thats fine.
Best fragrance of all time? Nah. Its close, though. I think imagination being cheaper and refillable makes it the better choice. I have also seen some people pick up full bottles of Aventus for under 180 on fragranceswap. At that price, I think Aventus is probably the goat. Most 125 ml PDMS go for that price, as well. This one is also more expensive than Aventus Absolu.
I picked up AA for 330 and Bald ahh freak for 350. AA projects way more and lasts 8 hours. I think my personality fits better with AA. Its darker, heavier, and more in your face.
Overall, this is a 10/10 (If its in your budget). Probably will end up in my top 5.
