I'm referring to this situation. Say you've been an apprentice Perfumista for a year or so. You can tell your Orientals from your Florientals. You have a respectable wardrobe of 10-30 scents or so. You have even found some that you really like, and put those in a regular rotation.
One day, you smelled something new. You love it so much, you bought a full bottle. You started wearing it. A LOT.
Then one or two weeks later, you try to wear some of your old favorites. You still like some of them. But unfortunately, you also find that you're starting to dislike some of your old faves, and about half of your frag wardrobe.
Now half of my wardrobe feels like I've only been hearing a violin played on a synthetizer organ, and then I finally heard Nigel Kennedy play a Stradivarius, and now I can't go back to hearing that synth violin anymore.
I'm asking other BNers because think this happened to me recently. The frag? The modern Mitsouko EDP. What's your paradigm-changing frag?
==============
Eg frags on rotation that I still like: Coco, Dior Homme, L'instant Magic, Prada IdI.
Frags I used to like but am dropping from rotation: Narciso Rodriguez for her EDT, L'instant Guerlain pH, Nautica Voyage, YSL La Nuit de L'Homme
