It took me awhile to warm up to Pure Shot and was even more of a reach as a blind buy. When I first tested it back when it was released I didn't care for it at all due to the projection and...

Hi everyone. As something of a newbie I'm still testing the water as far as fragrances go. So with that in in mind here's a quick question for everyone.

I'm always up for pushing the boundaries, so any suggestions would be very welcome. Thanks

Rossi

+1 for the Montales and for Kouros.

Perfumes of the niche house Nasomatto, available in certain fancy department stores, are notorious for being extremely, violently loud. Whether they are good is another story.
