After months of not buying or swapping anything, i aquired these three within the past week.
Cacharel's Nemo: WOW. What a treat for the nose. For all you lovers of fragrance out there, you owe it to yourself to at LEAST sample this one in your lifetime. So glad to finally own a bottle. It's dark, slightly sweet with some greens mixed in. Heavenly!!
Eau D' Hermes: Very very nice, but my wife doesn't agree. She said it smells like "afro sheen"...LOL. I can see (or smell) why this one wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, i mainly detect the cumin and lavender notes. Very strange, but none the less a great smell imo. Lasting power could be better.
Jacques Fath YANG: A multi-layered green scent that smells great. Need more time to test it, as i just got it tonight, but so far so good. The wife likes it.

that my fiancee would absolutely hate Eau d'Hermes. She really does not like spice scents, and I expected her to be repulsed by Eau d'Hermes. yet every time I wear it, she says I smell good. I think this is due to the cumin being so well blended in the scent that it is part of the "midground" - not the background and not in the foreground. Kind of like a noticable extra in a movie. In the same way, the lavender in EdH is not overpowering as it sometimes tends to be in frags. Roudniska (sp?) did an outstanding job balancing these two competing notes.
