Akro Smoke

Can't wait to buy this one. It's just pure perfection. I find the smell of cigarette smoke incredibly appealing in certain instances, and this one has really satisfied my craving for a proper cigarette tobacco fragrance.

What are your thoughts on it? Anyone else tried it?

SOTD was Floris Santal. Never a bad choice.

Tobacco Mandarin.


Probably not a summer scent. I'm not really getting much of a tobacco scent but there is some citrus with some dark notes.

I really like it, though it doesn't really smell like cigarette smoke at all to me in any way. I don't like it as much as Dark or Haze.

Today is Guerlain Habit Rouge EdP. This is such an incredible buy at 50ml for less than $30. It really blows away so many things priced much higher.

If you guys had to recommend one scent (multi-purpose/all season if such a thing exists)

What would it be and why?

I've been using Terre D'Hermes (my better half buys it for me) for a long time, and maybe it's time for a change??
Frags are so subjective, you are better off going into a store and smelling as many frags as you can tolerate over a period of time and then selecting one. Terre D' Hermes is a good choice for a versatile all purpose fragrance.

Oh boy, sorry to break it to you, but those are fake. Creed never made a pack of that nature, and never made those fragrances in that bottle size/shape.

Rose of No Man's Land.

This is definitely a rose scent but the style of rose keeps changing. At first it was almost rose-candy-like and now it's a gentle rosy floral.

I stopped by Le Labo yesterday to grab a sample of Another 13.
On a small quick dab, it smells like wet newspapaper, but the dry down is interesting.
I need a full dose and to spend a day with it...
