one of my favourite perfumes is Le Jardin De Monsieur Li, which is a sunny, citrusy and spicy fragrance that I adore. Itâs like a garden in full sun, with all kinds of mediteranean herbs, and somewhere, for several seconds, the gorgeous fragrance of a true Lilium regale appears, then it hides, letting the juicy spices to keep going for hours and hours.
On fragrantica some people said it is the scent of happiness
As for sandal perfumes, i am still hugely impressed by a pure essential Indian sandal oil, undilluted, that smells so powerful and gorgeous
Void my previous comment @Rosechalice. Lol It seems Vibrato has been reformulated. People told me to let it macerate for some months and the performance and etc should improve. Will let you know
Okay, so I used the âSummer Hammerâ from Lorenzo Pazzaglia today and it smells a shit ton better at night time and in cool weather than what the name implies. I tried wearing it one time when it was hot outside and it didnât smell anywhere near as good as it did today. Kinda cloying even⊠But today it smelled so wonderful
Okay, so itâs Winter time, and you know what that means. Time to bring out the heavy, rich and dark scents. All the spicy ones too. And of course all the gourmands. I had recently gotten a bottle of âDark Knightâ from, Alexandria Fragrances come in. And I also had a sample of the OG, from Kilian called, âBlack Phantomâ. I sprayed one on one wrist, and one on the other. I shit you not, I absolutely COULD not tell the difference.
All the notes were there in Alexandriaâs version, and so smoothly blended. Itâs all there. The dark chocolate, the rich caramel, dense and creamy coffee note, the slight booziness of the rum⊠Itâs all there. Damn this shit smells so good ⊠I know itâs a really sexy scent but I am wearing it before bed now. lol If any of you are able to get your nose on the OG, and then try a sample of Alexandriaâs inspiration of it, I shit you not⊠I bet you some money you absoluteley CANNOT tell the difference between the two.
I have not smelled this one, but heard wonderful things about it. I suggest DO NOT BLIND BUY. Lol Test it first. I only sniffed the Neo version of OFG and itâs very nice. Fresh but doesnât smell very niche, but I heard theyâd changed it from the original DNA of the OG
Two of my brothers gave me a bottle of Montblanc Starwalker for my birthday. What a pleasant coincidence! I loved the scent its woody, reminiscent of marine notes, and I love the seađ„°
Manceraâs âRed Tobaccoâ, YSLâs 'La Nuit De âLhommeâ, Parfums De Marlyâs âHerodâ, Mind Gameâs âMentorâ, Maison Martin Margielaâs âJazz Clubâ etc??
The price on black friday is totally worth a blind buy, I just love Oud fragrances iâd even wear it in the summer lol.
I would get Oud for Greatness but the price tag between the two Oud for Glory and Greatness is what makes the difference
Oh, I would definitely say the OFG Neo version is blind buy worthy. Lol I smelled it so long ago so I canât really say I remember how it smells, but what I do remember was it was very mass appealing and very pleasant to smell. I canât imagine anyone not liking it. OFG on the other hand, I have heard many wonderful things bout it but hadnât smelt it yet, so I canât suggest to do so. lol Plus I heard some people not liking it, but itâs ânicheâ scent generally liked by many.
I also restrict myself not to only sales haha⊠But tbh I needa to stop. I still have some I havenât like fully worn so Ima make a new years resolution regarding fragrances⊠I gotta use some of the ones I have first, which are great lol⊠Itâs gonna be a rough black friday tho
I have actually improved lol⊠I quit thinkin bout them so much during the last coupla of seasons. But round the holidays⊠I just get that holiday spirit. The last one I want, if I see a good deal on is⊠âVirgin Island Waterâ from Creed. I love this scent so much and Duaâs version that I got, itâs not very strong surprisingly. (Most are, but some arenât) I got a hybrid version of that mixed with BR540, and it doesnât give enough sillage, which is important to me. I wanna smell it on me too as I walk cuz whatâs the point of me spraying something I canât smell, but only others can? No sense lol
