Scent/Fragrance of the Day thread

[Krish the Fish]

Un Jardin sur le Nil <-- Today. Mostly citrus (grapefruit perhaps?), with a very light hint of spice.

After reading "The perfect scent", if I recall correctly JSLN is a green mango sort of centered frag.

That was a great book, and the reason I bought my bottle of Sur Le Nil. The opening is an extremely sour grapefruit, but shortly thereafter the green mango comes to dominate. I agree with Krish the Fish--there's a very light hint of spice.

Sur Le Nil is the fragrance I get complimented on the most. By far--there's not even a close second.

I get the green mango now, after a few hours on my neck. It is a great fragrance, starts out very polarizing and dries into a great fragrance that everyone enjoys.

...However, I'm not sure if it is my favorite out of the Jardin collection.

Which one(s) do you like better? Apres La Mousson? Mediterranee is my least favorite.

^^^ I can't remember the last time I actually finished a bottle of anything. It had to be pre-marriage.

Do you buy the smallest available bottle as a result?

 

[Big Pun]

Rochas Man. I wish New Harlem didn't smell better than this. Oh well.

Felt in the mood for something oceanic today, so went with the Carthusia Uomo.

ummm, sometimes. I think most of my recent buys have been tester/no-box types...which generally means the larger bottles. Sometimes, on amazon, for instance, the price difference is small enough that I just wind up getting the larger bottle, figuring I can always pass it along down the road.

That said, I also wound up getting reformulation fever...which pretty well put me in the mind-set that if I find something I like...better get a lot of it, because next time I buy that bottle, it might not smell as good. I do think that said fever is starting to break, since even some of the reformulations aren't as dire as I'd been led to believe.
