Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread

Moss Breches for me today. I just realized that I've worn Tom Ford three days in a row now. I didn't do it on purpose.

Also, just to entertain myself, I like to pronounce "Breches" as if it were a Spanish word. It's funnier that way.

I'm on my avant-garde **** today with Lush's Breath of God.

oy, yeah I just couldn't get into that one either. Sort of a mentholated smokey dirty green scent, blech, it's giving me a headache just thinking about it. I think I sniffed it like 5-10 times over a few years trying to get the appeal but just gave my decant away eventually. Way too 'raw' for me. Horses for courses I guess.

I am wearing Antiheros today. Masterclasster is the hero, having given me this. Thank you.

My pleasure!


Wore some Le Labo Neroli 36 the other day. Juicy, fruity, fresh water. Serious tenacity on this one, like nuclear.

Earlier this week used a sample of Malle's Barney's exclusive Outrageous! Sort of a crisp green apple opening and then much to my surprise, it had a very strong neroli note, which reminded me exactly of something, I think Neroli Portofino but will have to double check that. But I got a complete clone vibe of something I've smelled before. Even still, it seems so tame and boring and avant-guarde without really being unique considering the source. If I meet Malle again I'll ask him how it all happened.

I have switched into MDCI Rose de Siwa for the eveningtime hours.

I know that this is not a fragrance per se, but L'Occitane Baux deodorant is quite possibly the best-smelling deodorant I have come across.

As you probably know, it is based on L'Occitane's very popular Eau des Baux fragrance.

I actually had no idea before I got this. After looking it up (because of how impressed I was) I found that out. I have had very little experience with L'Occitane outside of what my mother buys for herself.

Today: Chanel Pour Monsieur Concentree.

Violet Blonde by Tom Ford today.

What do you all think of litchi? I wore Rose de Siwa last night, and I had the experience I always have, which is mild disappointment. It's such an expensive scent, but it smells cheap to me. And I realized it's because I always associate litchi with cheapness. Because it has a wet and sweet smell, I associate it with girl fragrances in bright pink bottles that you find at TJ Maxx. I find that i like litchi if it's buried in the mix, but if it's too prominent I don't like it.

Comme des Garcons x Monocle Sugi. I like this but the longevity/sillage is weak. Not full bottle worthy but rather nice while it is around.

Yeah, I was underwhelmed by this one.

I'm not a fan of tropical fruit scents because they are cheap smelling. As for fruit in general, I like the berry in Tuscan Leather and Portrait of a Lady but that's it.

And **** Aventus.
