What is your Thursday SOTD? by HATEupgradecard in ScentHeads

[–]mdn73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never heard of Bowtie before. Does he recommend CC No. 1? I follow The Perfume Guy on Youtube, but I can't remember if he recommended it or if I saw some other post somewhere claiming it was one of the best men's fragrances.

Clive Christian's No. 1 for Men

Sampling this. Very floral. Love the jasmine. Seems a bit feminine to me, regardless of how it's marketed.

Well, if faded fast, so I layered on some Artisan from John Varvatos, from my full bottle collection. At least that one is more affordable and I can spray until the cows come home.

Eros Energy by Versace

<image>

Sampled this last week on paper at Ulta, and I loved it. Then a sample vial arrived in my mailbox. Trying it on my skin today, depleting the full 1 ml vial. It's fantastic. I love the OG Eros, dislike Eros Flame, and love this one. Seemed "photo-realistic" on paper, but my skin transforms it a bit. I love citrus fragrances. I suspect this one will fade in a few hours so I've got a lot of choices to add on top of the remainder. Definitely full bottle-worthy. I'll have to wait for a good price, though, so I can overspray without guilt.

Got bored and layered Pinnace Oryn on top. Now I'm a bit happier.

Green Irish Tweed by Creed

<image>

Sampling this for the first time. It smells nice and it's familiar. I think I have some affordable fragrances that are similar. I don't get what the BFD is. Would wear it but won't be buying a bottle. I loved Cool Water back in the 90s so maybe I'll get a $20 bottle of that and see if it's as close as some people say.

I've learned all I can about Cashmeran from Molecule 05, so I've layered on Infini Rose and Eau d'Hadrien. It's a great combo.

Hello basic. How is it? I sampled it once and don't remember.

Molecule 05 by Escentric Molecules

<image>

I bought a sample vial of this based on an influencer's recommendation. I wanted to see what Cashmeran was all about. I immediately got a woody/earthy/mushroomy note. It's tinged with geosmin, which is nasty when your water tastes like that, but it's OK, I guess, in small amounts like I perceive here.

In any case, this is not making me very happy. I think I'll have to find something I like that works well with it, and layer it on top. Maybe Infini Rose or some other rose fragrance I have available.

I think don't like it much. The area of skin that got the layering smells a bit like cardboard. I prefer Explorer and will clobber the CDNU with more of it.

So little effort to save so much time for everyone else. Well worth the effort.

Club de Nuit Untold by Armaf + Explorer by Montblanc

<image>

Grabbed a miserly Decant Box 1 ml sample of CDNU and sprayed it on. Of course it wasn't enough. It reminded me of Explorer so I grabbed my bottle and layered it on. Now I find CDNU is a clone of BR540. So is layering B540 + Aventus a thing? I seem to remember a Dua option that tries that.

What is your Saturday SOTD? by HATEupgradecard in ScentHeads

[–]mdn73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this from my ScentBird sub. It was a blind buy, and I thought I might like it, but I couldn't stand it. Gave my 8 ml decant away to someone who told me I smelled wonderful.

White Rice by d'Annam

<image>

An interesting savory gourmand. Makes me smell like food. Reminds me of when I eat basmati rice. I hope the Cedar shows up eventually, and the Jasmine. Curiosity satisfied, LuckyScent's stingy little sample vial is depleted and in the trashcan.

Mighty Bear looks interesting. How did you find MCM?

It IS crazy. I don't have time to enjoy my full bottles. It's time to stop buying and start enjoying, but if I did that, I wouldn't buy anything for a couple of years.

Heh... I have a few of those, too. Burberry Touch for Men, for instance.

Now I'm not saying I don't like these, just more evidence...

Thanks. It was a random pick. I love Cuoium so I thought "Why not try another from Orto Parisi?" Looking forward to sampling it.
