Man, every time I use this Oud Wood I get pissed lol.

Sprayed it this morning about 90 min ago and the scent is already fading and I just got to the office.

EDIT: I legit feel like throwing the bottle away just so I don’t get angry each time lol but then that’s $280 down the tube.

This is similar to the feeling of being hungry, ordering food, the food is trash but you keep eating it cause you’re hungry lol.

Do you spray it on your clothes or skin?

Great Question. SOTD is Tom Ford - Grey Vetiver (Vetiver is kinda green)

Ones I like a lot

• Creed - Green Irish Tweed - fresh cut grass
• Beaufort London - Fathom V - Definitely vegetal, with a smidge of citrus.

Not the biggest fan

• PDM - Greenley
• PDM - Sedley

Somebody mentioned Coach Green as something to check out.

i smelled Coach Green the other day when i copped something from Ulta, its nice. Might have to cop me a bottle myself

Is that code coli in FBO dead? I just tried using it and it didn't work

Just my skin. I’m not one to spray on clothes although some people say that's the best way to get the scent to linger.

If you use different scents, spraying on clothes might get too mixy.

This why I will NEVER pay over $150 for a bottle of perfume less than 4 oz.

I base my price point off Kerosene Followed.

That's the strongest perfume in existence and it's $150 so no way in hell am I gone spend more for something that won't even be half as strong.

Plus the most popular brands like TF, Creed, PDM etc. Make some of the weakest ass no lasting shyt.



The middle Eastern clones of TF fragrances last way longer than the actual TF fragrances.

The FBO version of this way stronger than the reformulated version of the real version of this.

I'm not too big on this but it's good.

Not really.

I also wash and dry clean my clothes often.

Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Green Stravaganza Valentino cologne - a new fragrance for men 2024

Born in Roma DNA is heavy, Green, not so much.

Bergamot + Coffee + Vetiver - I get the bergamot, the coffee not so much. And I guess the "green" is a combination of the bergamot and vetiver.

It's cool. I still want the iconic Valentino bottle, but none of the fragrances move me that much.

Tried this in store when I picked up da Tom Ford Bitter Peach. Didn't blow me away but I wasn't mad at it. Def didn't get "green" from it which is why I didn't put it on the list when da homie asked for green joints

SOTN - Tuttle

Layered it with Bitter Peach the other day and it was too much. TF damn near overpowered it and took away from the magic of it on its own instead of enhancing or meshing in any way. This is one that I will prob leave alone as far as layering is concerned unless something else comes to mind to me that makes sense.

Strong as fukk.
Smells like a bakery.
More baked bread than the notes listed.
Then a nutty vanilla.
