Only smelled a couple, but it made me interested in them all, so no negativity from me. I think it is one of the most desired collections in my personal list.

So far the only fragrance I realy love (and bought) out of the collection is Tobacco Vanille. I'm starting to like azure lime but I'll have to test it in the summer first.

I have only tried Tuscan Leather, Tobacco vanille and Noir de Noir. I absolutely love TV, I really like TL and want to sample it a little more before I buy a full bottle and I didn't like Noir de Noir. Tobacco Vanille is one of my top three scents of all time!

I'm not a fan of the line.

I mean, I'll give him a bit of props for releasing so many "contemporary scents with vintage swag", but despite being strong EDP's....their ingredient quality and overall demeanor is not worthy of half the price he asks. Maybe 35% at best.

That said, I do enjoy Tobacco Vanille despite it being far too sweet. I find myself wearing the inexpensive spicy-gourmand Eav Des Bavx. On nearly every day I would wear Tobacco Vanille.

I too find Azure Lime to be a complete disaster and ripoff. True first makes the best Lime scent on the market for a scant fraction of the price Tom Fors charges for that synthetic trash.

I am however, in complete disagreement with you regarding Black Orchid. I am and always have been absolutely lustful for it's drydown. It smells sweet, feminine, and downright edible.

I see the Private Blend pricing appears to have been cranked up another few notches.....

250mls are now retailing at £285! They were £270 when last I checked, and I think they only hit that level in the summer.....
