Do I really need another Gourmand?

post #1 of 14
Thread Starter 
Lately, I've been contemplating the purchase of one of Turin's many loves -- Yohji Homme.
But the fact of the matter is that I already have:

Â* Â*- A*MEN
Â* Â*- Hanae Mori
Â* Â*- Animale Animale
Â* Â*- Rochas Man
Â* Â*- Mirra & Mirra
- Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin

Would I really miss anything if I decide not to get Yohji?

Thanks.

I second that opinion!

I don't know anyhting about Mirra & Mirra but Yohji is not like any other fragrance in your list. Although it is not one of my favorites, Yohji got me more compliments than anything else. The bottom line is that, if you find a good deal, go for it.

It's different from anything you've got so far. A nice variation is good.

Yohji is good but unfortunately it doesn't last that long on me considering it's a gourmand. Cristobal is another good one that you may want to sample.

For some reason, Yohji to my nose smells like B*Men. I'd say that New Haarlem really is the shizznit.

New Haarlem is your choice.

Another vote for this. Everyone needs another gourmand if they don't have New Haarlem in their collection.

Wow, it seems that a lot of folks here like the New Haarlem. I will definitely place this in my 'to buy' list.

I agree! Yohji is far less sweet gourmand scent than those you already have!

No, don't get Yohji. No more gourmands. Done. Passé. Had their time. Enough.

Sure, Yohji is an older one and almost a bookend of the genre, but gourmand is now played out. It's nice but with what you have it won't add enough and won't put any already on your fine list to shame. It will be another bottle in the same style to get through.

I'd go with B-Men as it is very close to Yohji. Yohji is hard to find and very pricey.
