Today's SOTD has been Tiffany For Men Sport by Tiffany, with thanks to Redneck Perfumisto for the sample!



The top of this was quite similar to yesterday's Azzaro Chrome - bergamot, pink pepper, and ozone - a pretty typical late-90's "fresh" fragrance. But where Chrome (and many of its contemporaries) suffered from its calone base, Tiffany goes a step nicer with a base of floral vanilla. The ozonic top is still a bit more artificial than I prefer now, but this is nicely done.

Today's SOTE has been a test of Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Mandarine Basilic.



At some point, I really need to find an Aqua Allegoria that I love, because I really want one of those gorgeous bottles. Sadly, this isn't it for me.

This kicks off with that cassis/apple combo that I'm now coming to think of as the stereotypical fruity floral top. Of course, there's mandarin in there, too, so the end result is sort of a juicy apple/strawberry/orange fruit salad, but sweeter than the real thing would be. There's a wet greenness also present, which could be the basil, but it comes off a bit more like lily.

This is actually quite a nice fruity, happy, girly, warm-weather scent, but it's not really my thing. Oh well, a boy can dream - maybe Guerlain will put out a vetiver/cedar Aqua Allegoria soon! (I don't think I should hold my breath, though...)
