I am not a Leo, but some of my favorite women are. My best friend, my mom, and my grandma are all Leos and are some of the most loving and strong-willed people I know. I knew I had to try this scent so I could try to channel their energy whenever I need it most. Leo is definitely a bright and beautiful golden scent. The honey bourbon is the first note I notice while wet, but it’s not aggressively boozy which is nice. However, it is definitely syrupy sweet. The yellow mandarin gives off a burst of citrus and is very mood boosting, almost to the point of making me feel giddy. As it dries down, the copal smoke and the maple wood appear and help to temper the sweetness of the opening. There’s a warm glow to this scent, similar to the kind that seems to radiate off of a Leo who has that indescribable knack for making you feel welcome and whole.
