I have Narrowed it down to the following for a (mostly)blind buy; Santal Noble, Tam Dao, and Acier Aluminum. I have only sampled AA once, but it was warm out and I did not give it a good testing, I did like it however. (I do like the Creed frags in general fyi) I am just getting My fragrance wardrobe up to speed and have the summer/spring section complete so I am looking to round out the fall/winter category. I have Silver Mountain Water, TdH, Pure Malt on the way, and AOS sandalwood (which I do like but I get the sharp menthol note, unlike the ASB which is great but doesn't last) I am really up in the air on this buy...is SN too formal vs TD more casual, but too linear and dry vs AA when can I wear it? In addition the fall/winter in Texas is not terribly long so this may hinder the season. What would You recommend? Thanks in advance.
