Pre-shower: Soussanne. I've said it before, but in general, I find the Keiko Mecheri Bespoke line disappointing. I like the regular lineup much better.
SOTD: Aftelier Wild Roses. Smells like potpourri.

@b1os: I bought a whole bottle of Santal Majuscule blind on your recommendation. If I don't like it, I will be mad as a hornet, and I will start typing on the forum in all caps until such time as I am banned.

Picked up myself a couple new colognes. I'm now having a hard time keeping my shirt buttoned.

I'd have been disappointed if you hadn't bought into my recommendation.

So, Santal Noble again. Baron, I agree with you. Definitely stink in their, more prominent in the beginning. I also smell quite a bit pepper, but apparently that's just me.

Test driving Tobacco Vanille today, with a view to wearing it at a big wedding next week. Not really a fan because the vanilla note is a bit up-front for what I'm looking for. I might go with MFK Oud or one of the Montales instead.

I tested Noir de Noir yesterday, and that would have been great except my sample hasn't arrived yet.

PdN New York today. A bit overflowed while I was spraying out a decant today and I figured '"why let this go to waste?" So i rolled around in it.

Pre-shower: Prada Amber pour Homme Intense


Been wearing this for a few days now actually so coincidence. I think I may like it more than the original?! it's the same soapy clean floral base but with strong overtones of patch and myhrr and stuff. I'm highly considering getting a bottle. Not great longevity but good enough.

SOTD, morning Prada PH Intense
SOTE, Guerlain Vetiver. Even the new formulation was still really enjoyable. I just love this stuff every time I wear it.



[COLOR=FF00AA]INTEREST CHECK[/COLOR] - I'm looking at organizing the next edition of the swap box (TM) in the next few days... you guys down for it?

Has any of you tried the Prada Exclusifs yet? Quite a shame. Ten good to very good fragrances (well, at least the three I've tried) and hardly--if at all--advertised or available.

Are those the ones only available at the boutiques? I tried the ones several years back that were 30mls and priced at about a bajillion euros (opoponax, oeillet, etc). They were fair but not for that kind of scratch. Are the ones you mentioned a new line?

Based on what little I've heard, even the boutiques don't know they have them.
