Decants X:
Armani Stronger With You Absolutely- This smells like something I already have but can't put my finger on it. Smells good but nothing special. Vanilla and rum opening but without the freshness...I got it The Most Wanted. That's exactly what this is but minus the sweetness and more spice/smokiness.
Nishane-Papilefiko- This is almost identical to Fan Your Flames minus the coconut and rum. They added spices and floral to this to make it a true fall/winter scent. FYF big brother. Excellent frag but not different enough for me to buy a full bottle.
Guerlain L'Homme Ideal- WOW the cherry and almonds in this are amazing and smooth as hell. This gonna make me rethink my cherry rankings and French Defense finally has some competition. This is definitely getting bought.
Guerlain L'Homme Ideal Extreme Eau de Parfum- This one not as good IMO. They replaced cherry with plum, tobacco and leather and it reminds me of Red Tobacco (opening isn't as harsh) and minus the plum. People saying this got reformulated and this one smells thinner than the OG. I'm willing to bet it was much better. It's a pass for me.
Kajal-Kajal III-This is just a Bvlgari-Tygar and Vibrato-Sisporo clone. Nothing new since I already have Théorème and Black Panther which are both amazing clones of both.
Makin Scents pickups:
Prometheus-God of Fire clone. I mentioned this one earlier but it smells better than the OG and last longer, Mango, ginger, and amber overload.
Aroma Serenity- Hadn't had a chance to wear this one but the site says it's a tri-brid of Musk Therapy, Pacific Rock Moss and Afternoon Swim.
Juicy Maximus-OG Aventus 13zz01 batch and DG-Pineapple hybrid. This is the loudest pineapple I've ever smelled. Have to be careful with this one.
Unaverage Patch- This is straight up Sour Patch Kids. Strong as hell too. Gotta be careful with this one but my favorite from the pack.
Desert Spike- LV-Cactus Garden clone. Never tried the OG but this smells like lemongrass, green tea and citrus. Pretty damn good
So Fresh & So Clean- An OG fougère from the site. Opening is Neroli, Patchouli, and Lemon. This another I need time to sit with.
Sweeping Up-(not pictured)- Another fougère I need to try
Also ordered Savoire Faire sample pack of Soul Cafe, LoveSuede, Sin, Santo & Sage
