I LOVE this fragrance...well at least I did until my most recent purchase from Nordstrom. I first purchased TDH back in 2009 and it quickly became my signature scent...I couldn't get enough of...

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...

Although I get quite a bit of apple freshness in the top note, this scent never becomes sweet or overly fruity. In the drydown flowery touches with a woody note emerge, and some vanilla and...

Yes, it's yet another flanker and most of them do smell very similar. This flanker is more of the same, but I enjoy this because the floral note is muted and there's more of a focus on the...

Today I had the chance to try them at Douglas. The 'original' I tried several years ago, I don't know if there's been a reformulation in the meantime, but this one seems to me much more 'mellow', the edges rounded. Though I found back then the vintage a great scent, yet somehow I never bought a full bottle. This new one -after about 3 hours- I find BTW.
As to the Nuit version - nothing to write home about. At the beginning I found it to be a toned down Dior Homme Intense, but the iris disappeared, and what remained is not remarkable at all to me. Something I've smelled several times and never found interesting.
