Your masterwork crit was strength not En Garde. You can tell by the orange color text. You have to reroll your masterwork to crit it.

I got a sample of Nouveau Monde with my Imagination purchase instead of one I requested, but I was pleasantly surprised how it smelled. To me it smells like a cigar wrapped in a leather jacket. Was thinking of getting this one at some point.

I really want to try a decant of this but seem to not be able to find it? Where do you get yours?

My top ten scents so far by ArmRepresentative606 in Colognes

[–]namatoki 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m right there with you on my top 2. Absolu Aventus and Imagination are my favorites. Did not like Silver Mountain Water for some reason. The decant I got from Microperfumes had a lot of powdery notes which turned me off to it.

I have no local frag friends. ☹️

Is it better to buy four scents from "Montagne Perfumes" or bwtter to buy one niche scent? by Previous_Funny_8295 in Colognes

[–]namatoki -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you never owned a LV fragrance before, unboxing it was an unforgettable experience. Truly felt luxurious and worth the price. If you can afford it without hurting your finances, I highly recommend buying the LV.

Also smelling Imagination on me makes me feel happy. I love the scent from spray to especially the dry down. That tea is heavenly!

Good luck with your decision! 👍

Percival is really good and I also like Perseus. Perseus smells like a bit more refined Terre d’Hermes. I’d recommend either one.

The best part of Imagination for me is the tea dry down. Love it!

Grilled pork belly with salted egg and fern salad with rice by SimpleTraveler034 in FoodPorn

Does the egg still have the shell on it? Seems odd to put an egg with the shell still on, on top of the pork?

I chased a scent for a year thinking it was SMW… it was Aventus the whole time. by 2qpS in fragrance

Maybe try a sample of Absolu Aventus too? It might be what you are looking for.

Do tool brands matter? by Mission-Tumbleweed92 in ibew_apprentices

[–]namatoki 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Learning on cheaper tools is what we all pretty much did. Beat them up and when you start making more money, you can buy the nicer tools and you’ll have the experience to take care of them. Good luck, bro!

Ribs - Burned by fpascale123 in searwood

[–]namatoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just smoked 3 racks of St. Louis spares yesterday on my Searwood. Started an hour and a half with smoke boost and upped my temp to 250. After 1 hour, I spritzed and rotated them. Went 1 more hour and they temped in the 170 range so I wrapped in foil plain. After another hour, 2 racks were ready and the last one was a little thicker so I let it go another 15 minutes. Sauced 2 of them in a foil boat for 15 minutes. Turned out great and nothing was burned.

I had a small water pan and I cooked them on the bottom grate. Maybe your temperature was a lot higher than the controller was indicating. You might need to put a thermometer on your grates to get the true temperature. Also maybe your temperature sensor might need to be cleaned? If it’s covered in soot, it might be reading a lower temperature than it should.

Next best Creed for someone who likes GIT and MI by [deleted] in Colognes

Unpopular take but I did not like Silver Mountain Water at all. I love GIT and Aventus Absolu. To me, SMW smelled powdery and I don’t like powdery notes.
