“Nic Cage Raking Leaves on a Brisk October Afternoon” Is the Fragrance Oil for You
![]() |
Bear in mind that I’m assuming you’re awesome. If you aren’t, there’s always Mitch McConnell bourbon summit merchandise to look forward to. And while I was hoping it would smell like honey combined with the taste of burning stingers shoved down your throat, this sounds more appealing:
Leaves. Crisp fall air. Deciduous woods. A black leather jacket, well-loved. Maybe the one he wore in Ghost Rider, because there’s also some Egyptian Amber in there reminiscent of some of his more, erm, peculiar character acting habits. A light musk, and just a hint of patchouli and men’s aftershave. I might have added a smudge of vanilla bean, but you’d never know it >_> Definitely unisex-leaning-masculine
Here’s what I think I love most about the scent, though: its name. Because it implies that Cage is badass enough to use a rake, and not one of those noisy, obnoxious, gas-guzzling leaf-blowers that every jackass in L.A. either owns or hires someone to bring.
