I recently bought a small decant of Tom Ford Noir de Noir on eBay (awesome frag but I'm going to need some convincing that it's any better than the recently released TF Noir) and with it, the vendor 'kaoslink' enclosed a 1ml sample of something he labelled SNK (CIT) which, frankly, smells of lemon washing up liquid and gave me a bit of a headache... any ideas what this stuff might be? I've emailed to ask him but so far, no reply.

Aroma: Quite fresh for an amber fragrance. The opening notes of green mandarin and bergamot definitely lighten the richness of the warmer notes and keep Ambre Nue firmly aligned with the cologne...

this is like a well rehearsed opera. every note is in tune with each other.the 3 players are the amber/vanilla/incense mix. very intoxicating but also cloying after a few hours. I only have a 3ml...

Elegant, subtle, and refined, For an introspective frame of mind. Close to the skin, it lingers on, I'll re-apply before it's gone. I wish that it would longer stay, But "Less is More,"...

Bentley for Men Intense opens with the faintest brief spray of dulled citrus mingling with a sheen of black pepper, before quickly adding laurel and cinnamon spiced smooth boozy rum-laced incense...

Aah, thanks for your helpful reply! You're right, he's an excellent seller. There was a problem with my payment going through and he was wonderfully polite and understanding about the whole debacle. Consider this my positive endorsement should anyone be thinking of using him. Also, in fairness, I only emailed to ask him about the sample last night but curiosity got the better of me so I turned to BN in the interim.

I just got a sample of YKIMS SOAB. Just asking what that is too. Will report when I know more.
Very nice and pleasant vendor. Fast and efficient and sorted me out very satisfactorily over a query. Nice authentic decant. I will certainly use him again. Not too sure about the smell of this freebie either but it was a generous gift as I had only bought one decant and not spent the required amount for another sample.

He is a really lovely and attentive vendor. Says he will try and send a piccy of the bottle if he gets a moment. I highly recommend him for decants. (No personal affiliations).
