Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread - Page 969

Today: Van Cleef & Arpels Pour Homme

Azzaro Chrome. Not bad, but not a favourite.

That's a nice example of the butch soapy fougere. Jules is my favorite in that genre, trussardi uomo is another good one.

SOTD: Chanel Sycomore.

Helmut Lang Cuiron.

On Fragrantica, the comparison is made to Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui, and I just don't get that at all.

^^ I often scratch my head at the comparisons they make at Fragrantica.

Pre-shower: Kolnisch Juchten
SOTD: Creed Fantasia de Fleurs. This is definitely one of my favorites from the Creed lineup. I don't know which great historical personage it was made for or which celebrities have worn it though. I should probably try to find out.

Naomi Goodsir Bois d'Ascese today. A very clean smoky wood. Fairly linear.

Thanks for the reminder about Naomi Goodsir. I've heard a lot of good things, but I haven't tried either of them. What's your opinion?

SOTD: Caron Pour un Homme. Yesterday: Knize Ten.

They're clearly well made. Bois d'Ascese is pleasant and I like it, though I'm not (currently) blown away by it. I'll be wearing Cuir Velours tomorrow. I sniffed it before & found it very promising. We'l l see how it plays out with a full day's wear.

Thierry Mugler Cologne. I'm sneezing a little this morning, which might not be a good sign.

Tobacco Vanille

Does anybodies Perfumed Court orders take forever to ship? I got my receipt 9 days ago and it has yet to ship.

I would strongly advise using Surrender to Chance or Luckyscent instead of Perfumed Court. The people who run Surrender to Chance (STC) broke off from The Perfumed Court (TPC), and that seems to have left TPC shorthanded and unable to process orders. From the very get-go, STC has done a very good job getting orders out. (I used to be a very loyal customer of TPC.)
