Freeway

Freeway by 4160 Tuesdays is a bold, sweetly gourmand scent that evokes urban Los Angeles after the city's energy has transformed into something nostalgic and slightly dystopian. It opens with bright citrus notes of mandarin orange and petitgrain, instantly conjuring sun-warmed asphalt and rubbery tarmac — a startling, nearly edible realism. As it develops, the fragrance settles into a creamy, vanilla-drenched base with hints of brandy, tobacco, and ever so faint cannabis, creating a hybrid of sweetness and dirtiness that resists being fully categorized. The scent evolves from an initial petrol-like sharpness to a softer, more wearable canvas of white florals and vanilla, making it both playful and grounded. Despite the initial complexity, it blooms beautifully in warm weather, particularly during summer, and leaves a distinctive, lingering impression that is not overly strong, yet distinctly personal. This is a fragrance that doesn’t shy from contrasts — it embraces the tension between clean, sugary notes and a slightly off-kilter, grungy undercurrent, making it ideal for those who appreciate innovative, emotionally layered perfumes with artistic intent.
