I don't how it was achieved, but Myth manages to be fresh, sweet, & spicy all at once. An elusive combination, like searching for the mythical beasts of lore.
The only thing I can compare it to is that just stepped out of the shower feeling. Many fragrances claim to be unisex, but this one definitely achieves it - "manly, yes, but I like it too!"
My husband said "you smell good" the first time I wore it, which is high praise indeed.
