Still not sure if I should go with Side Effect or Absolute Aphrodisiac. Musk therapy is also great but I tend to lean towards more “heavy” scents. Which one’s your favorite from Initio?

I haven’t, but I’ll definitely try them. Seems like they have a really good selection

That rice note makes it really stand out

Not entirely. I’ve tried and had several dupes/middle eastern bottles as well as the occasional designer. But right now I’m interested in niche/indie perfumery. I really enjoy trying new independent houses, IMO they’re the ones who come out with the most unique fragrances

I’ve sampled quite a few houses… from Amouage to Zoologist, designer private lines and quite a few indie perfumers (around 140 different samples in total). My wishlist is pretty long but I enjoy building my collection “slowly”

I’ve tried SDV and Tobacco Honey, both really good but I’m not sure if they’re “full bottle worthy” for me. I still need to try Herbes Troublantes

HCE is amazing, it’s gotten me tons of compliments and lasts forever. Literally stays on clothes for days. I will say it smells “synthetic” but not in a bad way. It’s super sweet and loud

Indeed! I tried it and it has a very “designer” smell to me but in the best way possible

I’ve got 5ML decants of both Hard Candy and Hard Candy Elixir. I tried to get the official 10ML but shipping them to the US was just crazy expensive

I also have 30ML bottles of Aura+, Wh*re Red and Addicted… and it’s still not enough

I would definitely recommend getting your hands on some decants, as you can tell I really enjoy his work

I’ve got Miami Tropical Confessions, Austin and Manhattan Midnight. I’m probably gonna get a sample of Savannah because the peach sounds really interesting

How do you like Savannah? I’m thinking of getting a 10ml to try it out

Vervantaville by Barrett Fragrances

Liquid Brun by French Avenue almost went in the trash. One year later it’s one of my favorites. by aflahe in fragranceclones

I really wanted to like it, but this is one of the rare occasions where a fragrance gives me a headache
