Graphite
Bath and Body Works (2018)

Add it all up - value, accessibility, unpretentiousness - Graphite by Bath and Body Works is a serviceable fragrance I'm comfortable wearing. I mostly wear it when visiting family in my hometown a few times a year and it makes me feel sophisticated enough for these parts. This isn't an overly wealthy area, nor does everyone need to spend a fortune the be well-turned-out. I've smelled far worse fragrances that cost many times more.
