again another sample from luckyscent......tried it.....the opening is very nice for the first minute then it is just a musky sweet smell on my skin(i think one reviewer said tonka bean for this)...i did not enjoy this fragrance.

the only thing i could get out of this frag is a nice subtly opening of absinthe(not boozy
)...then a generic sweet musky drydown

I sniffed it in a shop, tried it on my skin. Was underwhelmed. Didn't get a haunting bitter-herbal wormwood note. Just (as you say) a musky sweet smell. Unremarkable.

Same thing here. Sampled it on my skin about 4 months back. Absolutely nothing to be over joyed about. Musky dry down as already posted. Definitely would not spend the full bottle price on this one.

Didn't care for this one either.

I love it. Was my first buy from this house. Second was Black Afgano which I was underwhelmed by considering its status and reputation.

I like it just fine, but if we're talking wormwood nothing touches Memoir Man.
