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.

I find this to be so wonderfully complex. It evolves throughout the day like few other fragrances that I've tried. I have not tried the EDT, but I love the EDP so much I'm gonna stick with it....

This is one of those sweet fragrances that men in their late 40's are not supposed to like, but I'll wear what I darn well please! The fact that the sweetness is so beautifully balanced with...

I tried the "extreme" version before this one, and was neutral. Then I tried the EDT and wow! This has all of the smoothness of the extreme, but add a brightness that really sparkles (if you...

Kind of fresh, kind of soapy, kind of spicy, kind of minty. Those are all things I enjoy, just not all in the same bottle. I don't hate it, but I don't really enjoy it either. Well worth the low...

I once heard someone describe this as smelling like you're mowing the lawn and you spilled a little gas from the mower on your clothes, so you get the smell of freshly cut grass and gasoline...

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).
