There are many fragrances that you or I haven't tried before (and believe me, I've tried A LOT), but there are also those that we haven't tried, even though they get, and KEEP getting great reviews here on Basenotes, and/or in other places. The most prominent one for me would be Amouage Homage (I've tried most Amouages). It seems to be worshiped here, and I really don't know why I haven't tried it yet. Some others that I don't know why I haven't tried yet are Parfum de Nicolai New York, Lumiere Noire, Back to Black, Duro, Knize Ten, Creed Windsor...The funny thing is that for many of these houses, I've tried some, if not most, of their other scents. There are obviously others, but those are probably the main ones that come to mind.
