SOTD - Gucci Intense Oud & Nouveau Monde by LV

Doing a lil experimenting :ehh:

Had a lil bit of this NM decant left so decided to get a Sweet/Fruity vs Dry/Spicy thing going on for this counter course collision.

Tried this today. This a weak skin scent. Caramel isn't even a note. The coconut is supposed to blend in with the other notes and make it caramel.

I smell coconut and no caramel.

SOTD is Cedrat Boise. Honestly I regret this purchase a little. It's a good scent. It's strong. It was affordable and good value. It's just going to take a long time to go through. In hindsight I would recommend this to someone if it was going to be a signature scent for them. If you have a bunch of bottles, you're never gonna finish this. You're better off with 5ml.

I haven't bought a decant in a while.
It's not that I have lost interest in fragrance. I just have too many decants right now.

Possible future decants:

  1. Aquila Absolute by Electimuss
  2. Basso by Suspiro
  3. Beyond the Wall by Gritti
  4. Cuban Tobacco by Alghabra
  5. Habanos by Royal Crown
  6. Malibu Party in the Bay by Simone Andreoli
  7. Baraonda by Nasomatto
  8. Citrus Riviera by BDK Parfums

This Gucci Guilty doesn't last very long. Like the scent, but I'm looking for staying power.

Any suggestions?
Summer scent for the weekend?

Staying in the realm of some similar note profiles or just summer ish in general...

YSL Myslf
Neroli Portofino by TF
Born in Roma: Yellow Dream (Simpler than Gucci or the other mentioned joints but effective. Smelled it the other day and was not mad)

And just on some cool summer ish...

Sauvage (cant go wrong obv)
Dylan Blue
Afternoon Swim
Pacific Chill
La Rive has some good summer options
Invictus Legend

And depending on who u ask in here, D&G: Light Blue Forever might get it done. But I'll let @WIA20XX really set u straight
