Definitely more a sweet scent than dirty … but there is dirtiness. When you apply it, you think ‘lovely, sure, but where’s that leather and rubber? The cigarettes and weed?’. Give it about 10 minutes.
Sweetness goes dry, rubber meets with an acrid, sour citrus. It’s not a freeway, nor a dirty L.A street … but there’s definite darkness. Yet, the vanilla persists. It’s an odd blending. I actually would love to buy a full bottle of this. Its genuinely interesting. This is orange blossom and vanilla meeting with rubber and petitgrain mostly. Very fun. I enjoy it.

While this description sounds very “busy” (freeway style), after an initial “what the heck is going on here” (in a good way) opening, with what smells like fuel and rubber, a park, and everything but the kitchen sink, it settles into a rather cozy and comforting scent of sugary vanilla, soft florals and citrus on my skin, with a fresh but almost edible quality. But there is a slight earthiness that keeps it from going “too” fresh or gourmand. There is something about this fragrance that reminds me of something from my past. Not sure if it’s another perfume, a place or some type of food, but I immediately am transported into a memory. More of a feeling than any sort of visual. I love this fragrance and think it’s one of Sarah McCartney’s best — in my top 5 from 4160Tuesdays.
It’s a Freeway of love for me.

In crafting 4160 Tuesdays Freeway, Sarah McCartney does something very special: she works in a generally sweet, creamy, pleasant formula and turns in partly dirty to create something brand new and nuanced.
The dominant aspect of the risk is the trifecta of orange blossom, vanilla, and petitgrain, and the former two are used to make up the near-entirety of two other compositions that I love, the more purely sweet Profumum Meringa and Lili Bermuda SunKiss. Certainly there are plenty other such examples, as well.
Freeway, however, takes a bit of a turn (pardon the pun) toward the boozy and the dirty, combining the abovementioned trio with, respectively, rum/brandy and tobacco/cannabis. It’s this harmony between the mostly-sweet notes and the somewhat dirty notes that fosters a certain uniqueness that distinguishes Freeway from other sweet orange blossom scents. Sarah McCartney’s mastery is best on display here as it is in Eau My Soul, finding the right combination of notes in proper proportions to create art.
Performance is strong and Freeway should prove a versatile offering, serving for me as a mostly-refreshing distraction on a hot summer day, though it’s also bold, sweet, boozy, and dirty, so it really works year-round. Regardless of wearer or occasion, this is something I’d like to smell over and over again.
$110 for 50ml is more or less typical of her pricing, perhaps slightly higher than average for an EDP, but nevertheless worth every penny for a fan like me. Her best work to date (that I’ve tried) along with Eau My Soul.

I am underwhelmed. Orange blossom combined with rubber (think Bvlgari Black). Interesting for about a half hour and then gone for the most part. I’m glad I only have a sample.

It’s freeway.
It’s like a sandy freeway within green fields with doses of vanilla & brandy. After 1 min in, the vanilla goes like candy with doses of cannabis. The tobacco shows later with hints of oranges. The jasmines appears later but in bits to add some planty animalic to the blend.
It’s fair to be honest, not bad but fair.

This is so interesting. A mixture of dirty and sweet. The pyramid given by Fragrantica is pretty on point: Pleasant mandarin orange and petitgrain to start out with, followed by dirty tobacco, rum, almost a cigarette smell. Dirty.
They say this is supposed to represent ‘dirty orange blossom’ but instead I think it captures ‘dirty vanilla.’ The sweetness and the dirt mixed together is a bit jarring. I can’t say it’s pleasant. You can smell the cannabis in here, but it isn’t dirty. I think the tobacco is dirty and maybe the woods. You can have clean, pleasant, creamy tobacco but that isn’t what is featured in this scent. I would compare it to an ashtray smothered in vanilla body spray.
Beginning: Citrus and petitgrain that burns off really quickly.
Mid: Lasts two hours: dirty ashtray bathed in vanilla body spray. Dirty wood and cannabis mixed together.
Skin Scent – Goes from the beginning of hour three to the end of hour eight. Smells like vanilla body spray, nothing else. It’s boring at this point.
I’m glad I tried this, but I wouldn’t buy a full bottle. This is not a fragrance I enjoyed.
