I've never tried the BB&B frag that this is apparently a copy of. For the price this is a nice scent, especially for those exploring woody scents. Spicy and somewhat sweet. On my skin I get a nice note of cedar...aromatic, slight menthol. If you've ever smelled cedar, you'll know what I mean. That cedar fades somewhat on drydown (wish it didn't) but it's still there, with some spicy vanilla notes. Doesn't project much, and doesn't last too long. But for 17 bucks, not much to complain about here. Nice to spritz on before hitting the sack. Relaxing.
