What cologne do you own thats just a tick shy of being a truly great fragrance ?
What is the missing component or note that would take the scent to new heights ?
For me Bel Ami Hermes needs more Vanilla and Amber in the basenotes to make it more desirable and wearable.
Also,... and I know I'm going to catch it now- Habit Rouge would be less feminine and better suited as a masculine
fragrance if it had just a touch more rosewood or some kind of a slightly woody base that would balance out the
powdery drydown. Maybe a bit more Patchouly .....sorry if this is blasphemy.
There, I said it and its just my opinion. So now I'll listen to yours in hopes that I can learn from your comments
