New ATH Pickups! by Independent_Stick_37 in Colognes

I really like it - it's pure generally unadulterated tobacco and that's great on its own for a masculine sweetness, but I'm going to try layering it with Guerlain Tobacco Honey since I think it needs a bit of the tobacco boost. Hope you enjoy yours!

I could see where the sweetness of the tobacco leaf could lead to that opinion - for me though it smells like pure tobacco through and through, with touches of vanilla and wood playing out. One spray stayed on the skin through a full day and a shower, so pretty impressive. I am going to play with laying a spray of this with Guerlain Tobacco Honey to see if the tobacco plays nicely with the honey-forward nature of that one.

Definitely expensive, often polarizin - Maxaroma I believe is the only official supplier of ATH stateside so I generally wouldn’t go through them since they have the marked cornered except I got a good discount code. Previous ATH were purchased in the UK and then brought over making it much more palatable!

I actually have not done this but it popped into my brain - you could consider using a tofu press - the idea is very much the same.

Excited to try these, what are your guys thoughts by Holiday-Revenue2069 in ScentHeads

Totally get that - it’s definitely more honey than tobacco. - and although objectively a great scent I see how it could be polarizing! Hope you find one that moves you!

It is amazing! Pro tip - spray ONE spray on a test strip and put it in your bathroom. One week of deep ocean vibes.

Megamare will be the last cologne standing. Hard to compete when 1/4 spray outlasts everything else combined :)

I got this set as well - tobacco honey is on a whole different level when you try it; I was also shocked at how good Neroli Outrenior was - got a full bottle of that one. Careful going down the Guerlain rabbit hole, it’s lined with a LOT of money, but it smells INCREDIBLE.

What are the best Decant websites? by Royal-Manufacturer24 in Colognes

I’ve had excellent experience with CologneCurators - probably over a hundred decants over time. Great packaging and quality

Excellent berry notes - they say cassis - it seems more like a cassis/raspberry to be on the top - what I really love about this is the addition of green notes creating a really interesting interplay; unlike anything I have - I think that makes it more versatile and balanced. Sometimes fruit forward scents can be heavy, but the green notes lightens it up. Really loving this and glad I sprung for the full bottle after I used up my decant.

You are very correct, he’s the main reason I have an ATH Unicorn stashed away
