By Kilian Straight To Heaven

Straight to Heaven by Kilian opens with a hefty, realistic white-rum kick that soon combines with the scent of stewed dark fruits, which together give the fragrance a rum-punch vibe. Strangely, there also seems to be an underlying hint of mature cheese in the first few minutes. That might not sound too appealing, but it works for me. Regardless, that hint, along with the more prominent rum and fruit notes, dies down after about 15 minutes and spicy wood notes then come forward. By 30 minutes, the rum and fruit notes have blended completely and are joined in equal measure by what, to my nose, comes across as fresh sawdust.

Let me start by saying out of all of the reviews I've been going over in my head, I think I've wanted to review this one the most. I throw it on so much nowadays and every time I wear it I experience something new and new memories are made. To any perfumer, if you accomplish that, you nailed it. Memories, feelings, capturing lightning in a bottle for a brief moment is exactly what I got from this. My FAVORITE By Kilian, I can now say with 100% confidence. I've sampled everything on the men's lineup and there were a few that grabbed my attention but Straight to Heaven will always have me for the end of days.

Love this profile, its just such a subtle fragrance. Used over a quarter of a sample sprayer after getting out of shower and could only smell it if brought wrist to my nose.

One of the best date night fragrances ever made. Try to find 2019 or earlier bottle because the modern stuff isn't the same.

This is great, not sure why people feel so strongly about hating it to be honest (as per previous reviews...)
