Mugler Les Exceptions Cuir Impertinent

Two strikes on this one for me - smells very feminine and I just didn't like the smell. I keep testing it out when I walk by the TF counter, but cannot understand the love for it. But hey, scents...

PDM Greenley

I'm inching closer to getting my bottle. Nice choice!

Nice one, man...I love this stuff!

I was at the Hermes store locally and the SA did not know anything about a new release. Pretty disappointed that she did not, so will be watching this thread for more info.

On a side note, I got...

Can't argue with this as it's my favorite of the newer Hermessence offerings. :thumbsup:

Looks like Seb saw your post hehe

I know, I need to stop feeding the troll... :D

Nice list - what'd you think of them?

Aventus would be one. Curious about a few others, I'm sure.

That's with him slowing down to take the corner. :D

AnOther 13 takes me to my second purchase of the year.

Got to try Greenley and Pegasus exclusif and actually liked what I smelled on a blotter. Will have to give them a full wearing to really see. That's already farther than the last 2 releases got...

Got to try a couple of PDMs tonight - Greenley and Pegasus exclusif. After not liking the previous 2 releases AT ALL, these smelled great on a blotter. I got some generous samples and will be...

I really wanted to like those two also but just did not do it for me either.

I did like Eau Duelle EDT and surprisingly Fleur de Peau.

Yeah, I didn't get coffee (or oud for that matter) either.

Le Labo AnOther 13

How is this? Been wanting to sample it myself.

Stopped by the mall and picked up my first Le Labo

Le Lion de Chanel again

Looks like my week will be Sun - Thu so I can change it up on Friday.

8 sprays of Scandal Parfum Cologne

Impressive!

Cool, great read! Thanks for putting this together.

ROJA Scandal Parfum Cologne

Always a good choice!

This would be my recommendation as well, at least to try. I've never liked it, ironically because of the tomato leaf note, but someone looking for that may appreciate it.

Chanel Le Lion de Chanel

Definitely one of my favorites! Nice pick.

Tom Ford Tobacco Oud Intense

Check out Le Lion - ambery and quite reasonably masculine as you get further into the dry down.

I've enjoyed Masculin Pluriel more the longer I've owned it. Could be my sense of smell just getting used to it, but man do I have days when I crave it.

Ha ha ha ha ha...I almost took this seriously. ;)

Like the others have said, Nuit de Feu. It focuses more on the incense side of things. The only complaint I have is that it wears so unexpectedly light. Now, that's not necessarily a bad thing. I...

Hey, that's just an excuse to spray even more!

Okay, got Le Lion de Chanel in the mail today. So, my total for the year...

My sample has actually grown on me where I'm actually contemplating a full bottle. Seemed generic at first, but I keep getting nice wafts from my skin.

First thing's first though, need to get...

Le Lion de Chanel. A blast of citrus in the opening, which then gets into what I call a nutty amber surrounded by lots of incense. It's only been about a half hour, so we'll see how it dries down.

Viking

The Chanel performed the best for me, but do prefer ADP Colonia among the 4 FWIW.

Parfum for me

Arsène Lupin Dandy by Guerlain

Nishane Spice Bazaar is quite good. It reminds me a bit of Dior's Spice Blend, but a bit dirtier and rougher around the edges. Love and own both.

Day 3 - Tobacco Oud Intense

Good plan!

My Le Lion is coming, but it's blind for me as well. Nouveau Monde will be purchased this year. I figure you can't go wrong with either.

I would tend to agree with this. :thumbsup:

Guerlain Arsène Lupin Dandy

Seek out vintage if you can, but the current formulation is really good as well and very affordable. Good luck!

I like this one as well, but prefer the Intense version a bit more for the winter. I do own both and would still recommend this one. It's already in your cart. Get it out of your system and try it...

Looks like I'm starting my week on Sundays, so going with Day 2 of Tobacco Oud Intense today.

The always reliable Ombre Nomade last night

There was another thread discussing the discontinuation, along with a few others in the line. But yes, discontinued at least here in the US.

Never liked them enough to pick them up, but will still try the Parfum when I see it.

Xerjoff Alexandria II
Ormonde Jayne Montabacco Intensivo

Just a couple that comes to mind that I had to sell.

First purchase of the year, yay! lol

Thanks! :thumbsup:

I wouldn't say it's weak, but doesn't not a beast by any means. Perhaps in the first hour or so it projects a bit more, but I get wafts up to 8 hours. I have the newer bottle too, not the one that...

I've only sampled Amber Aoud and Aoud. I loved Amber Aoud for the longest time, but I gotta say that I prefer just plain Aoud now. It's still technically a rose and oud, but very sophisticated to...
