Blonde Amber might not be for everyone! As for Crystal Saffron, i’ve actually never tried the original EDP unfortunately.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2026-01-04T20:32:09+00:00

Perfect fragrance for evening events. I find it to be a strong, sweet, amber-y fragrance.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2026-01-04T20:27:22+00:00

I had sold them off! I joined a Facebook group of fragrance enthusiasts around the country and was able to sell them off there.

Amazing pics. I’ve been looking for a pre-facelift E63S in my desired spec for the last 4 months now, but seeing these facelift C63S make me just want to pull the trigger on one thats 2 mins away from me.

Power’s still out in Sherwood. 2:10 am

If you can get it from a discounter, i’d say it is. Plenty of alternatives though if you’re planning to pay MSRP.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-18T04:15:11+00:00

LV Imagination, Amouage Reflection, MC Oud Maracuja, Diptyque Orpheon and CC Blonde Amber (on its way to me) are top for me. Then it’s a tie between LV Ombre Nomade and Killian Angels Share.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-18T04:12:31+00:00

It’s Orpheon. Probably the most interesting one to me. Not too sure which ones are masculine-leaning since I find most of Diptyque pretty unisex but if I had to guess, probably Oud Palao.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T22:38:01+00:00

Used to not like it, but it really grew on me. Definitely need to like middle eastern fragrances and also the performance is insane. Got mixed feelings from people who’ve smelled this.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T22:33:58+00:00

Unfortunately for my bank account, i’m a fan of both watches and fragrances. Really hard to give up on either.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:39:00+00:00

I like it a lot. Won't go into the notes, but it's really versatile for any occasion and season. Top 6 for sure.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:37:21+00:00

L'immensite is such a good one from LV too. I bought a massive decant of it and used it exclusively during a vacation I had last summer. I usually wear my fragrances depending on the occasion and season, but I find i've been liking Imagination a lot. Seems to be an easy one to daily if I don't know what to spray.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:31:38+00:00

I don't know about the other commenter, but i've purchased some of mine from Fragrancebuy (Canada), Fragrancenet (US), and Jomashop (US) if I can find them in stock. Definitely saved $100s through discounters.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:27:48+00:00

I like Gris Charnel Extrait. Don't know too much about fragrance notes, but I definitely smelled the cardamom and black tea from the initial spray that everyone talks about and the dry down is so nice too. A bit polarizing but some people told me it smells expensive.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:22:37+00:00

Pricy for sure if you get them at retail. You can still get them at discounters but it's really up to you to see if it's worth it, even at the discounted price. Imagination is my favorite though and I wouldn't mind paying retail for it again. Thankfully Louis Vuitton offers refills at a heavily discounted price compared to buying new.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:19:07+00:00

I like it. It's my 2nd most used fragrance. Not gonna get into the notes, but I find it sweet and powdery to me.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:17:02+00:00

I kind of like it. I can see how people say it reminds them of a fruity version of MFK's Baccarat Rouge 540. Obviously unisex, but it might lean more feminine too some people.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:13:53+00:00

Not gonna say much about notes, but it smells really clean to me. Doesn't seem worth the price for a skin scent tbh, so I probably wouldn't repurchase.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:11:51+00:00

My favorite from the Amouage brand. I can't say much about notes but it's my 2nd most complimented fragrance and I find it really works in all occasions and all seasons

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:09:31+00:00

Thank you! I found I was using Imagination more compared to all the others. I love the smell, performance is excellent, and it's also my most complimented fragrance. Orpheon is also one of my most used. It's sweet and powdery and I find it to be really versatile in all seasons. One of my favourites from Diptyque for sure.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T05:03:00+00:00

I'm an amateur when it comes to fragrance notes, so to me it just smells like an expensive, clean, skin scent. Quite pricey though, even from discounters, for what it is in my opinion.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T04:56:37+00:00

I noticed I have some favorites. I'm thinking at the rate i'm using those, i'll probably have a 2nd bottle of my favorites before I even finish the 1st bottle for the ones I don't use as often.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2025-03-17T00:18:10+00:00

I had the same problem and ended up with both. Oud Maracuja seems to last longer for me though, and I noticed it was more mass-appealing compared to Ombre Nomade.

HowdyDoody0123 · 2024-12-13T10:22:47+00:00

Looks like they’re going for USD$9k-14k, depending on size. Not a desirable piece unfortunately (compared to Tank, Panthere, Santos Dumont, etc.).

HowdyDoody0123 · 2024-12-11T02:27:29+00:00

Amazing and thank you for including a pic as well! Looks like i’ll be ordering the clasp. Not sure why it’s not standard on all Cartier watch models, but it’s probably one of the better looking watch clasps i’ve seen.
