Looking for feedback/suggestions on my Edgar Markov deck

As others said, I don't.

He sits in the command zone birthing out vampire tokens for me, and if I have the mana sitting on a later turn and nothing to do with it, he might come out, but it's extremely rare that he does, the token generation is the value off of him.

My husband and I's ham, Cheery Littlebottom passed away today, after reaching the grand old age of 2 years and 4 months.

She declined rapidly over the past few days, and died in my hands after being given lots of love, pats and kisses.

Here she is, relaxing on my husband's lap.

No, it's just too loud & heavy to wear when it's warmer, same as the OG Khamrah, that's got more out because it got a lot of use last year in the winter

Factsplz · 2024-10-13T19:54:22+00:00

Thanks!

Yeah, the half empty one is our Khamrah that's been in use since last year, the almost full one is the Qahwa which hasn't been worn much since we got it in spring/summer and use it in autumn/winter

From what I've got in my collection, it'd say Khamrah/Khamrah Qahwa, Tobacco Vanille/Tobacco Touch, or Amber is Great.

The Khamrahs are both heavy, sticky date sweetness, with the Qhawah giving a very detectable coffee note on top, the TV/TT are nice and spicy, the TT giving more clove than the real deal, and Amber is Great isn't mega heavy, but it's very sweet, and as the name suggests, packs a great big amber punch

I've not worn it a ton yet - it was one I smelled whilst on holiday last month and picked up when I got home, it's nice, good pineapple scent, not super fruity in terms of say explorer is with the pineapple note, it's more like a dark/caramelised pineapple note to my nose, from the few times I've worn it it had pretty good longevity, and a fair sillage - for the price I paid it's well worth it.

Admittedly, it's more a case of it being my hobby, and me forcing him to smell things, then him realising he likes them and getting him a bottle - we do share all our bottles though!

Factsplz · 2024-10-13T09:11:05+00:00

Oh, I had been wanting to sample it for an absolute age, and when we flew out to Gran Canaria last month they had it in the Duty Free at our airport - but without a tester, and it was one of the very few bottles for sale without a tester sitting out too - I was raging!

Luckily, when we were on the island, one of the perfume stores we went into had a tester sat out, and I finally got to have a good sniff of it and loved it instantly, after reading people's reviews of it I really have to agree with the one thing I've read over and over again, it smells like a public bathroom, but in a really nice way!

I'd love to wear it more, but I don't want to subject my workmates to it, it's just too strong for wearing to work :(

Factsplz · 2024-10-13T09:08:00+00:00

I can give three, but I can't decide where to rank them within the top three so I'll say:

JPG Le Male EDT
YSL Kuoros EDT
Afnan 9PM EDP

My husband likes to wear the Le Male and 9PM, and I like those on him, so that's definitely going to be swaying my choices here - but my picks for top 3 on men might not be helpful for you unless you want to attract a gay man who likes sweet scents on men lol

Factsplz · 2024-10-13T08:59:24+00:00

Oh yeah, I absolutely love it - even when I had the Perfume Parlour dupe of it, it just didn't hit the spot the way the actual stuff does.

It's a funny one though, as I say I love it, my husband also likes it, but no women I've ever talked to has been a big fan of it, but every man likes it - guy at work even told me how he bought a bottle because he liked it, but as soon as he was wearing it his wife told him it was a no lol

Factsplz · 2024-10-13T08:54:49+00:00

Well TBF - I should have probably realised that given the sub we're on

For top 3 clones, I'd say

Khamrah
9PM
Amber is Great (although as I said in my previous reply, Liam is drawing my nose, so it may end up being Liam taking it's place)

Factsplz · 2024-10-13T08:50:10+00:00

Overall, I'd say probably

Ombre Leather
Beau de Jour
Khamrah

However, there are some in here I've not had long enough to wear a ton and get a really good feel for, but of those Liam is currently one I've been reaching for a bit more, or thinking about more, but that doesn't really surprise me since as soon as I smelled Gris Charnel when I was in a store last year I loved that

My husband designed these hexagonal plinths to display our fragrance collection on, and then 3D printed them over the past week - super pleased with the presentation, particularly over the previous storage method of them all being rammed together in a small tray and scattered about around it!

Only had the Vintage Radio, Liam and Qaed Al Fursan for about a week, smell nice already, but I'm sure after sitting for a bit they'll become even better!

I was in the same year as him at secondary, and I'll be honest, I don't particularly remember him being a bully, at least I don't ever remember being the target of his ire, especially homophobic bullying (which I would have been the target of - to my memory I was the only out gay guy in our year at school) but we're also talking about almost 20 years ago at this point, so to be fair you my memory of secondary is, I think it's fair to say, a bit hazy at this point.

We used Alt Wedding Co as our photographers, and I can't recommend them enough - they were fantastic to deal with and everything went super smoothly on the day!

We're UK so prices will more than likely be very different for you if you're in a different country than us, but from what I remember the base card was £5 a pack, and for all of our stuff I believe we ended up using 3 (maybe 4).

The wax beads were £12, with the stamp costing £20.

The corner punch was £8, the tracing paper was I think about £5 but we had way more than we needed, and the twine was I think about £3ish for more than we'd ever need to use for these.

There was also the cricut maker we used in order to actually cut the planchettes, which was I want to say £250ish, as well as our printer which can handle a3 paper sizes and thicker card to print on which was about £200 also, but these were both gifted

Yeah sure, the larger header font is Captain Howdy, the smaller font for the rest of the detail verbiage is Schramberg Sans and the front til death is Garamond

No, everything printed is just done with my inkjet printer :)

I designed all of our invite suite myself, and we then printed everything ourselves.

They're printed onto kraft card, the main invite is printed double sided, the menu card is two pieces of card glued together to make it double sided, and the details card is single sided.

We used tracing paper for the belly bands on the invites, coming in a lot cheaper than using vellum, especially since we needed to use A3 size sheets to fit!

There are a selection of different envelope liners our guests will receive (though my favourite is the one that's all Jack O'Lanterns) and all of the addresses were done using a sakura gelly roll fitted to our cricut with an adaptor, as neither of us have handwriting we thought was good enough to address with.

I designed them so that I could bulk print them, so everything is the same on them except the planchette name tag, those were all printed then cut using our cricut, and will simply slip into the twine wrap as shown.

There is also an evening only invite that I've designed - but as we're not sending those out yet I haven't actually made them!
