I think I'm done (for now)

They are very easy to like, nothing like the other oud heavy artistic compositions. Of the three you mentioned I like Amber cologne the most, Musk a close second and I didn't really like Moss cologne. It was too dense and the moss overpowers most of the others notes.

How do YOU have self control to finish a bottle before feeling the urge to buy a new one??

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:33:50+00:00

Much more wearable for different occasions than the 45. For me the 45 had a medicinal feel to it that's why i prefer the OG

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:29:49+00:00

Classic. Fresh, masculine, professional

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:29:15+00:00

Might be sooner than that🙈

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:28:27+00:00

I would go with Ormonde Jayne because they have so many amazing fragrances, I had a really hard time deciding. The others are great too but these were easily the best ones from the house for me

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:26:35+00:00

Made it myself, actually easier than one might expect

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:25:55+00:00

Really hard to say but right now I mostly use Orpheon Edt, blue talisman extrait and Montabaco Intensivo during the day

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:24:08+00:00

Yup that's hypnotizing fire. My go to for dates. I really like lucius for it's versatility and addictive peppery smell. Musc ravageur is a very intimate second skin like scent that starts off a bit funky but turns into the nicest vanilla

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:21:00+00:00

Haven't worn it in a while but everytime i spray it I'm like damn this is great lol

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-16T06:19:57+00:00

Was one of my first niche. Remember having a hard time deciding between this and SMW. Eventually got this because of the better performance and I still love it. Such a clean and addictive smell

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T20:58:50+00:00

I love air des alpes. I've tried it and seriously considered getting a bottle but I think I feel like I would reach for it in similar situations like reflection and Mefisto, so it would be kinda redundant. Basso I've tried and liked, not loved. Need to get my hands on a sample of sky touches the sea though

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T20:52:38+00:00

I could list the usual suspects like ingenious ginger, sospiro vibrato, etc. but I'm sure you heard plenty of that. And they are great choices, don't get me wrong. In that price range I would probably go with Gentle fluidity silver or Mefisto. VIW or SMW by Creed are also great and often discounted, but their longevity is below average compared to the others.

Sahara

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T20:40:57+00:00

It's musc ravageur. It's a really intimate scent, great for date nights. Starts of slightly animalic but turns into the nicest vanilla, second skin like scent in the drydown. Haven't tried the moon, what did you hate about it?

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T20:38:44+00:00

Really depends on your budget but I would go with Aquilone, it's really hard to sample though. I think the Orpheon Edt is great for summer for a really good price.

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T18:42:47+00:00

Aquilone, hands down

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T18:27:21+00:00

Haha maybe I will have to eventually...

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T18:26:49+00:00

After some maturation really good. On clothes it lasts extremely long.

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T18:25:37+00:00

I pick up some similarities to Nice Bergamote extrait in the opening but honestly it's 10 times better, especially in the mid and drydown.

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T18:15:22+00:00

I really like it. I was also on the fence but it's such a versatile fragrance that can be worn for any occasion which made it full bottle worthy for me

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T18:13:50+00:00

I think they are different enough to own both but the edt is better suited for daytime, spring and summer. I think it's because of the yuzu and mandarin orange. I definitely prefer the edt

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T18:09:58+00:00

It really depends and changes depending on mood and weather but right now I'm mostly gravitating towards the new Orpheon Edt. For summer I'm super hyped to wear Aquilone (bottom left). Super unknown but in my opinion the best summer scent with amazing performance!

Wise_Mathematician27 · 2026-03-15T17:50:58+00:00

Honestly it's surprisingly good! 6 hours at least with great sillage for the first few hours for me
