For me, as far as Oud goes...

Oud Satin Mood
Gucci Intense Oud
Oud Immortal
Initio Oud for Happiness (have a dupe of this)


Creed Royal Oud is cool but not really oud like dar fr. I wasn't really feeling Versace's Oud Noir that much.

You just reminded me tho (and gave me an excuse) that I need to put together an Oud pack :shaq:
Do you know any good brands based in Dubai/Middle East?

I ain't finna hold u---Im not too familiar wit too much of dat. My lady be the one buying up all that foreign shyt off Amazon fr.

I know Amouage was founded somewhere ova there and they're pretty reputable.

Lattafa is based ova there and I recently smelled samples of a lot their shyt and my lady got a lot of their shyt. It's good, cheap stuff. I actually got one of their more popular joints on the way today, Kamrah Qahwa.

Not really Middle East (but Turkish in foreign) but Nishane is becoming one of my fav houses.

I was looking at this one. The bottle's too cheap for folks to decant...but I don't want another bottle.
I hear you especially about the bottles. I'm running out of of room and doing decants now (depending on how this Electimuss-Spice D'Arno smells that might change to a full bottle)

My decants still > my full bottles # wise so that's the only reason I even snagged it besides the price of course lol.

I low-key wanna toss a good 4-5 of my bottles out or resell them or give to my youngin's so I can stick wit a staple 8-10 full bottles and then the rest just gon be decants.

Was a few blind buys at the beginning of this journey I'm not happy with lol

SOTD - Absolu Aventus



It's just too 'quiet' to me in a sense even tho I appreciate the dry-down a lil more than the OG. I don't get Sauvage either tbh.

Low-key, I might layer this later on wit da Electimuss Imperium & then we can justify those Aventus comparisons...

Sur tes lèvres. E.Q.
Eau de Parfum

Concrete Iris, Jasmine, Cashmeran

A Floral, Musky fragrance evoking endless love, imagined as the extension of a kiss by master perfumer Dominique Ropion for D'ORSAY.

Your search for eternal love is finally coming to an end. With this perfume, surrender to this radiant union, and celebrate the iris and musk intertwining of your two bodies and souls.

An intense and addictive scent imagined for him and her from 100% pure and natural ingredients, sourced with a strict ethic of total transparency.

-------------------------------------------

*Got my Scentbird subscription for this month and this is 1:


This is really good.
Nothing special but it is the essence of a soft cashmere coat and a sweet iris. It last a over 5 hours. It doesn't project much but people in arms length can smell. :ehh:

SOTM

shopping


Head citrus, matcha, black currant
Heart cedar, leather, patchouli, tobacco leaves
Base maté, musk, powder, real ambergris

If only, if only the matcha was similar to actual matcha, this might be goated :skip: . Still disappointed that I've yet to find a matcha fragrance that captures the bitter essence of sum good ole Japanese ceremonial grade matcha.

But fucc it, sum good ole Half & Half Tea (which this comes off more like) will suffice. Man, I luv me sum black currant when done right and it's hittin' here in the open wit da citrus. The leather & patchouli come on strong but eventually get anchored & toned down wit light powdery vibes.

I'm fuccin' wit it.
