hey all,
I've been lurking here and thought I'd finally take the plunge and join into the discussion! Confessionally, I have only been into obtaining/enjoying the benefits of cologne for the past four months and it is an exciting time for me. A "honeymoon phase" if you will...right now I have nothing better to do so I figured I'd give a short review of some of the stuff I have sampled and bought recently. Any input others can give, differing perspectives etc would be greatly appreciated.
Also if you have any ideas what else I might like judging from my reviews, hit me up here. Thanks!
Profumum - Patchouly: I just got a decant sample in the mail from Luckyscent. I have it on my wrist right now. It is deep and sensual, like being trapped in an old, powerfully fragrant wooden cabinet. I would probably most likely wear this alone. It's almost too masculine for me, and I couldn't imagine women appreciating the smell. I like it so far but it really has a strong tobacco like note to it(is this the Amber?)
Tuscany Per Uomo: My father's scent, so Oedipal conflicts often wrestle with me upon application. The only Aramis line scent I have really enjoyed. Not a favorite, but something good to fall back on I suppose. I could imagine myself appreciating this much more when I am older.
Kiehl's Original Musk #1: This makes me feel great when I put it on, and I almost feel guilty for it! It's the scent of spending the night with a beautiful woman in your arms. Rosy, deep and comforting. Yeah, I like it allright. I like it for myself, but don't know how others are impressed with the scent.
Burberry Brit: I sprayed this on with a tester a month ago and thought it was way too spicy and powdery for my tastes. A couple weeks later I kept thinking about it, and when I went to TJ maxx and found an $18 bottle, I figured what the hell, I'll give it a shot. It's grown on me a little. It's an extremely clean scent, unlike the others that I have so far in my collection. A nice scent to wear going on a date or just out and about, although I don't feel that it's "me". The lady who cut my hair asked me what it was I was wearing. Not bad at all.
others I have but haven't tried yet:
two samples from luckyscent
L'artisan Voleur De Roses: Am looking forward to this one. considering I like Kiehl's I figured this would be a nice sisterly companion.
L'artisan Tea For Two: I couldn't resist the temptation. The description had me drooling.
thanks for reading!
