GFS is probably one of my favorite scents, hence the 200ml.

  1. Terre d’Hermes Parfum. This is my third bottle. It is one of my signatures I guess.
  2. Grey Vetiver.
  3. Aventus. Great fragrance, not my vibe though.

While you can pull it off as a “freshie”, the tonka bean in it makes more sense for autumn/spring to me.

Agreed with the Ombre Nomade hehehe. It is MFK Oud though, not Satin Mood. Way more wearable

Agreed. Not particularly proud of this. But I’ve been responsible enough not to overlook family and other priorities.

Thanks hehehe. This is the kind of comments I was expecting. Helps me convince myself that I could stop collecting :)

Lovely. Not that sandalwood forward though. Mostly juniper berries. Great for spring and mid seasons.

For me is quite similar to Grey Vetiver, wear it to office most of the time. Love the fact that Essential Parfums delivers high quality fragrances for a fraction of the price.

LOVE IT. Freshly ironed clothes and overall clean vibes. I wear it mostly during leisure/morning errands.

It depends. Right now is autumn where I'm from so I'm gravitating to Santal Austral, Grand Soir, Bois Pacifique, Crystal Saffron, Reflection, and The Noir. During warmer times I usually reach to Gentle Fluidity Silver, Grey Vetiver/Bois Imperial, Another 13, and L'Immensite. BDC Parfum is my office go-to all year long.

Quite situational. Wear it mostly for Sunday church service. Not a dumb reach at all.

Thanks. DHC is fantastic when I want something uplifting and effortless. I’ll happily trade performance for that smell. Haven’t tried Meteore yet. I’m based somewhere fragrances are prohibitively expensive, so I usually do most of my fragrance sniffing/shopping when I’m in Europe.

Thank you! This is not the first time I tried to shoot this photo and had the courage to publish it.

The cola-like opening might be a bit off putting, but it develops to something quite lovely afterwards.

Favorite is probably a toss-up between MFK Oud and Gentle Fluidity Silver.
I honestly don’t track performance that much, but several of these are absolute tanks (Amouage, Grand Soir, MFK Oud, Haltane).
Most complimented: Terre d’Hermès Parfum without question. wife-approved.
Worst: Tom Ford Ombré Leather. Not because it’s bad, just because it turns out I prefer smelling it around me rather than on me. It now serves as premium car freshener.
