Actually, I lie... it's my second, but I figured that would not have sounded nearly as dramatic! 
It was almost 9 years ago I made my first blind buy... Trussardi Light Him - dreadful hideous stuff that I snatched up without a sniff because I was lured by the fab holographic packaging like a retarded bower bird!
I swore then and there that I wouldn't ever do it again.
Until this week.
I came across a TOO-GOOD-TO-BE-TRUE deal on some Maxim's de Paris Pour Homme - a discontinued spicy-floral fougere that I'd never really heard about until Dimitrios and the_good_life strongly recommended it.
Top Notes
Bergamot, Lavender, Fruit Note .
Middle Notes
Muguet, Jasmin, Cedarwood, Sandal, Carnation.
Base Notes
Amber, Moss, Patchouli, Musk, Leather.
This has to have one of the most enjoyable aromatic drydowns in my entire collection
Maybe there's something to be said for buying blind after all. Then again, standing even at one hit and one miss thus far, the odds could go either way.
Is there any more love out there for this one?
