I've realized I feel a lot more "me" in unisex or male fragrances so I've decided I want to explore them in earnest, at every price range. I spend a lot of time living in wilderness, so my standards for natural notes are very high. I prefer my fragrance to be evocative of a certain weather or temperature, and I much prefer one or two main notes to a loud, cloying mix. Particularly, I like iris, cedar, birch, moss, herbs, earth, tea, pepper, saltiness, angelica, heliotrope, labdanum, myrrh, and juniper. Don't like orientals, oud, very sharp greens (galbanum), vetivier, rose, or most spices. Not opposed to leather or tobacco, but have never been moved by one and I have tried a lot. Citrus and musk are both fine.
Aside from Gris Clair and Iris Silver Mist, I like a lot of water-related fragrances (Apres L'Ondee, Angeliques Sous la Pluie, L'Eau d'Hiver). Fou d'absinthe and Mechant Loup as well. Love Mitsouko and Odin #3 Century. Thanks for your help! I will be making a trip out to Scent Bar next week, but also want to explore some stuff at Sephora or a dept store.
