Afro Leather-Everyone knows what this smells like. I have African Leather and just wanted to see what this one compared since it was $18 only fragrancebuy. This is pretty much on point and kind of scary how close they got to the DNA. Definitely gonna put African Leather up and rock this

Hermes H24 Herbes Vives- This is green overload but in a pleasant, smooth way. I'm getting a blast of pear and just all around freshness. It just smells like a green field of plants with pear being opener. The dry down you start to get a slight mint but not strong. This is excellently formulated and will definitely be one I reach for during the summer.
Is this a clone of the original african leather? I had a few bottles from wayy back when they were still niche underground.. I am christmas shopping a year and half ago and I see they got the whole line in saks:gladbron:.. They got a cute lil saleswoman tryna move units and she a real good sales person so I really start chopping it up with her, get her number, telling her she can get on team and with her skills sale high ticket item like real estate easy, she got the hardest part down pat..

Anyway I see they expanded the line by alot and Im like let me smell african leather, she spray it and man WTF..:huhldup: :what: :snoop: shyt was reformulated for the masses. It was still "nice" but man wtf.. She tried to tell me its the same:pachaha:Im like baby I DO THIS.. I ROCK this forreal.. I need an original scent version for sure tho..

Folks usually say Le Labo or Tom Ford is an overhyped house. To me, it's By Kilian by far.

I'll give them Angel's Share (which is supposed to be whisky), but honestly if you've put your nose on any Apple Pie Spice cologne, you've gotten smelled them all.
For me its Amouage. Overrated as fukk and I've tried the majority of the hyped ones. The only ones I really like is Beach Hut Man, Enclave, and Royal Tobacco. The rest is overprice mid at best.

I actually like By Kilian
Black Phantom
Back To Black
Angel Share
Vodka On The Rocks
Blue Moon Ginger Dash
Straight To Heaven
Moonlight In Heaven
Roses On Ice
Intoxicated
Shield Of Protection

Haven't really tried a lot of Le Labo but I smelled Santal 33....smelled like a jar of pickles and never wanted anything else from the house.
Tom Ford makes quality shyt, Tobacco Vanille might quite possibly be the best tobacco frag of all time.

Testing this tonight. I'm surprised cause normally musk are weak skin scents. This kinda strong. This like a creamy orange powder. :ehh: :ehh:

Sidenote: u got any favs or gems that has the "mimosa" note in it?

Never checked for it specifically, but I have 2 that contain the note

1) Voyage
2) Burberry London.

In both cases, I don't think mimosa is "the star of the show".
