    FXS Scent Review

    FXS Review:
    Description:
    (Taken from "Men's cover scent descriptions")
    Base Notes: Musk, Sandalwood, Moss
    Middle Notes: Citrus
    Top Notes: Spices

    I would say that from first impression FXS gives off a typical designer cologne vibe and is an all around awesome scent. One could easily mistake you for just wearing cologne. The scent itself is not too overpowering and for the products I ordered, it seemed to mask any unpleasant scent. But, I have heard that it may not be strong enough for a product like Ascend with copulins added. However, for the products I ordered (Cohesion, Celebrity, and Xist) it seemed to do the trick just fine. I could smell a hint of the spices but the citrus also came through as well but none of the individual scents overpowered the others. If you are looking for a more neutral scent and are a beginner or a veteran I highly recommend that you consider ordering your products in FXS if you don't prefer to use your own cologne.

    All that being said, for the smellier products FXS may not cover the smell as well so while it may be better smelling it may not be able to cover the smell of stronger blends as much as other cover scents.

    Verdict:
    9/10

    Pros: Pleasant and easily adaptable smell, great for beginners and veterans alike.
    Cons: May not be able to fully cover
    scent of stronger products.

    Thanks for reading and I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of their day!

    Cheers,

    I find FXS easy to cover or just wear alone.

        My favourite too, very pleasant, fresh, crisp and easy to combine with other fragrances. Finding the right cover scent that you really like is important since the wrong scent will make you use the product less or try to cover it with other fragrances which can easily get overwhelming.

          Yup, I completely agree although I may try other cover scents at some point, any recommendations?

            Aqua Di Gio is really nice, fresh and crisp like FXS, a common cologne that smells a bit like Hugo Boss eau de toilette. I´m sure you´ll like that too since you like FXS. Go to a a perfume store and have a whiff if you want to smell it before you decide, it´s been around for a while and is easy to find.
