Which latest designer scent release did you try and think of it as FBW?

Pollux · 27th December 2012, 01:39 AM

I my case, the latest flanker of Cartier's Declaration, Declaration d'un Soir. I did not buy it, but left me wanting to try it again in order to check out if it is worth buying. So far, I think it is..

**starshipvelcro** · 27th December 2012, 03:08 AM

Dior's Eau Sauvage Parfum, very good but I didn't keep it.

**Scentologist** · 27th December 2012, 03:17 AM

Vince Camuto

**hednic** · 27th December 2012, 03:20 AM

Yes, probably Dior's Eau Sauvage Parfum, but I never tried it, just bought it blind without giving it a second thought.

**amw9490** · 27th December 2012, 03:22 AM

Hednic, I love Eau Sauvage Parfum. Definitely a good pick up.

**Chasing the Dragon** · 27th December 2012, 03:27 AM

Hanae Mori HiM. I like it so much, I bought both the EDT and EDP.

Also:

CK Encounter
Eau Sauvage EDP
Tom Ford Noir
25:43 by Gorilla Perfume

Tried it and found it way too strong, a bit linear maybe? Your comment makes me want to try it again...

**demcav** · 27th December 2012, 03:57 AM

Chanel Sycomore

**L'Incandescent** · 27th December 2012, 04:05 AM

My answer is exactly the same as the OP's: Declaration d'un Soir.

**mesaboogie** · 27th December 2012, 04:12 AM

Armani Code Ultimate blew me away. I always liked the original Armani Code but it was too weak and short lived. They fixed it up and smoothened it out with Code Ultimate. It's the way Code should have been from the start. It makes up for this year's crappy ass Code Sport flanker.

CK One Shock was last year's big hit for me. It was unexpectedly good so I snatched up a bottle as soon as I heard it wasn't selling well and might get axed.

Double post!!!!

**drseid** · 27th December 2012, 06:25 AM

If by "latest designer release" you mean recent release then Tzora by Anat Fritz.

Eau Sauvage Parfum for me too. I agree it is very strong though. A 1 spray fragrance, under the shirt. Or even half a spray, or mist-method, according to taste.

**Akahina** · 27th December 2012, 08:29 AM

CK One Shock for me too. Got a big bottle cheap. Hanae Mori HIM is one I thought about. Eau Sauvage too I thought about zo I echo other's comments. Can't think of any others this year. Designers need to work on longevity and make more parfums for men. Lots of weak shit coming out that is simply boring or uninspired.

**SculptureOfSoul** · 27th December 2012, 08:45 AM

Encounter. I find it to be really good, actually. No longevity problems here. I get a wonderful jasmine/patch combo, hints of oud, rum and cardamom. I really don't get the hate on this one. :?

**andym72** · 27th December 2012, 09:07 AM

2012 has been such a blur I cannot remember which one of these I smelt last

Out this year, and I'd consider buying, would be Guerlain Homme L'Eau Boisee (which I did buy), Kenzo Homme Sport, Code Ultimate, Black XS L'Exces, and Spicebomb.

5. All Year. Thats awful.

Sounds quite nice; I'll have to give that one a sniff... edit: Wow, after going to the review page so I could add the scent to my "to test" list I see what you mean by "the hate". It wouldn't be the first time I loved a scent that was disliked by the consensus. A trip to Sephora this weekend should do the trick...

**rbaker** · 27th December 2012, 09:44 AM

Nothing really so far over the last six months. Eau Sauvage Perfume and the latest DHI reformulation came closest to it.

**lupo** · 27th December 2012, 09:49 AM

I think Acqua di Gio Essenza is really good. Never been a fan of the original, but this one is good in its own right. Didn't buy it yet, but eventually I think I will.
I was tempted by Luna Rossa Prada, but I don't think it is really FBW. It is a bit.... redundant in the Prada line, if you know what I mean

**docluv45** · 27th December 2012, 12:18 PM

Another for Eau Sauvage Parfum, also the AMen Pure Leather.

**sjg3839** · 27th December 2012, 01:59 PM

Hello SOS, you're one of a handfull of noses i trust so i will have to be trying this one. Wishing you all the best for the new year

**QWERTYOP** · 27th December 2012, 02:27 PM

Spicebomb

**del** · 27th December 2012, 02:50 PM

2012
-------------
Spicebomb by Viktor & Rolf
Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme by Chanel
Vince Camuto for Men by Vince Camuto

**dnc** · 27th December 2012, 03:07 PM

Last one I bought was Dior Homme. After not being a huge Iris fan, I suddenly found myself with a massive craving for it a few weeks back. Didn't want to waste vintage DHI as an everyday scent, so got the normal stuff - very nice too.

Edit.........Hmm didn't read OP correctly. No new FBWs from recent releases. Was fully expecting Amazing Green to be FBW, but was fully disappointed.

**Buysblind** · 27th December 2012, 03:12 PM

Spicebomb

**bigsteve** · 27th December 2012, 05:31 PM
