#fragrancereview ~ Moonshine by EastWest Bottlers {2011} ⭐⭐⭐⭐ {Paid Partnership} So I received this bottle of Moonshine, a boozy and smooth men's cologne from @ewbottlers and I unboxed it a week or so back (please check out the unboxing in my reels tab). I've done quite a number of full wearing since then and now ready to share my unbiased thoughts about this creation. First, I would like to introduce you all to the house of East West Bottlers, a Texas based US brand. They have fragrances, candles, soaps and other stuff within their portfolio. The fragrance line includes mostly colognes created for the modern gentleman but there's some stuff for the ladies as well. Moonshine is my first and my introduction to this brand. It's fashioned after the old school colognes our Dads wore growing up but with a slight modern and rebellious twist. With woodsy notes, spices, leather and gin as the key accords, it's quite unique and sexy in its own way. The gin and spices are quite prominent and they give this woody cologne an eccentric but extremely macho flair. Performance though is where this elixir could do with a bit more of a kick. For the four hours or so that it lasts, it's utterly wonderful and my wife echoed the same sentiments as well citing how sexy it smelt. An extrait concentration of this fragrance would be a gold mine and I hope they consider this for future releases. Packaging is really nice and it comes (100ml) with a burlap travel sack stored in a wooden storage box. It retails for $76 and can be ordered from their website (www.eastwestbottlers.com). This fragrance has received several commendations including being listed by Men's Journal as one of the best colognes for fall. Esquire listed it as one of their recommended scents for men and Headline news described it as a winner. If you don't mind toping up from time to time due to its cologne concentration, I would strongly recommend you give Moonshine a try.
