BORNTOSTANDOUT Smokin' Gun is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Florian Gallo. Smokin' Gun opens with Bitter Orange, Juniper, and Rum, settles into a heart of Oak, Whisky, Leather, and Pine, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Tobacco. BORNTOSTANDOUT's Smokin' Gun carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. If you're after a bold, smoky, boozy statement that doesn't hold back, you've found your match. But be warned, it's not a crowd-pleaser and might just clear a room faster than a dodgy curry.

Its potent smoky and boozy character makes it unsuitable for the office, where it could overwhelm. The strong, unique profile, however, makes it an intriguing choice for a date night, projecting confidence and depth without being overtly sweet. The intensity means it's best reserved for cooler weather and specific casual outings where a bold statement is desired, rather than everyday wear.

About

Smokin' Gun kicks off with a spirited shot of rum and juniper, brightened by bitter orange before plunging into a robust heart of smoky leather, pine, and rich whisky. As it settles, a comforting base of tobacco, cedar, and vanilla rounds off the boozy, woody journey, leaving a lingering, warm impression that's anything but subtle.
