I just got a bottle of this on ebay and the stuff is amazing! I can't wait until more hits the ebay market. Very long lasting and intense with great sillage.

BS is not like TL pour Lui at all. Lui is quite sweet while BS is more spicy woods. Like i said earlier (and even more so, 7 hours after application) BS reminds me of TL pour Homme quite a lot.
Altamir, on the other hand, smells like a much lighter and less sweet TL pour Lui.

I am sorry I am bumping this thread, but this deserves some consideration. I tried it yesterday and found it FBW: top notes are sort of run-of-the-mill, si my initial reaction was that of dissapointment - they felt like many recent releases. Still, mid and base notes are worth the initial cliche. The woody spicyness is quite evident, but it mixes with notes I can associate with that of old paper, maybe the presence of some aromachemical I can also detect in Guerlain's Coriolan. This gives TLBS, IMHO, a traditional character I apreciate a lot, as if the blender had in mind updating traditional styles.
TLBS's sillage and longevity are remarkable, taking in mind fragrances don't hold up to my skin: I tried it at 10:45 and by the end of the day (0:00) I could detect traces of it even after showering. It may lack some complexity, but the overall wearing experience is worth trying.
The lust in my heart is growing as I've still not smelled this.
"I exist for myself, and for those to whom my unquenchable thirst for freedom gives everything, but also for everyone, since insofar as I am able to love - I love everyone. Of noble hearts, I am the noblest - and the most generous of those that yearn to give love in return. - I am a human being, I love death and I love life."
