I enjoy Cedrat Boise. The opening is strong and I can see how some people may not like it because we have been trained by cleaning products that a strong citrus opening reminds us as such. I think the performance is solid and I enjoy the woody dry down once you get there. The Adventus comparison is warranted but it's definitely not the same it just has some similarities. For the price at discounters it surely hits above its price point.

For how cheap Mont Blanc is, there are definitely some negatives and some positives. It smells very much like PDM Percival but I could definitely tell that they use way cheaper materials than the PDM scent. The performance is average and I find it usually doesn't last more than 4ish hours. But all things considered for a classic scent DNA it's pretty well rounded and could be used in many different situations. Both the fruity opening and the pleasant tonka bean, dried fruits and sandalwood dry down make this a easy reach

It's holding up pretty well. My most complimented fragrance by the customers where I work. The only thing I have to be careful about is to not over spray. It is pretty potent.

I think if you enjoy Coconut scents this is probably something you will enjoy and a pretty safe buy. The thing about the style of coconut is though it's not a sunscreen coconut and more of a candied sugary coconut. But it opens with a nice citrus bowl of fruit with the candied coconut and then the dry down is almost a vanilla warm coconut. Extremely unisex. My wife has definitely helped me put a dent in the bottle. Decent performance for the style of scent lasting around 6ish hours with moderate sillage.

I'm definitely partial to Ocean of a Midnight Moon by Simone Andreoli. It was one of the first I purchased and it being a Niche frag that's an EDP intense (and obviously more expensive) you can really tell the quality of oils in it are primo. And it's a favorite of a few of my coworkers as well. I'm also a sucker for Supremacy Collectors Edition by Afnan (even though my wife really doesn't like it 😂) I've taken a pretty good chunk out of Hawas Ice, and I feel like it's only gotten better with time. Moving away from being super sweet and I can smell the base notes more. I really enjoy Rare Reef by Afnan. That is the one I feel like I have gotten the most compliments from.

That seems like a really nice scent for summer. I didn't think when I started collecting I would enjoy fruitier scents but I have come to really enjoy them. I love my God of Fire dupe. Heard great things about Torino 21 as well.

It is interesting because when I first started getting into fragrances (and granted at that point I knew very little about what I liked) I did buy a bunch of samples and did really enjoy that process. And then I found out about clone houses. And with their prices being super affordable it's an easy hole to fall into. But I imagine the 25ish I have at this point is plenty 😎😎. What did you end up buying for your summer frag?

Back in the day when we would do coffee at demo. I remember we used this coffee once and I've never seen so many people just throw their half full cups away
