Also, I ordered the Chris Rusak discovery set today after years of contemplation due to all the talk about it here along with the sale taking place.

Agreed. It is quite good.
Recommended seeking out the version that only states "Lagerfeld" on the bottle, before "Clasic" was added.

I reached for Coriolan from Guerlain today. Seemed like a nice one for a sunny, 70-degree, but still fall-like Thanksgiving day here in Northern California.

I have the current version and enjoy it. Have you tried the vintage? I’ve heard it is appreciably better, but I think a lot of complaints about reformulations are overstated. It doesn’t appear to be crazy expensive on eBay if you are patient.

I have an older bottle that only states "Lagerfeld Cologne" on it from "Parfums Int'l" Canada, and a more recent bottle that is from Unilever, which states "Lagerfeld Classic Eau de Cologne" on the bottle.

The Cologne version is definitely richer, with a deeper, dusty dry down.

This is a good review from Kafkaesque.

Stretch of cold weather this week, at least by SoCal standards...

People really love that one. I remember when it was first released that it would sell out immediately as soon as Saks would receive any stock. It was kind of crazy. I'm back and forth on it. I still think there are other Kilians that I probably like more.

Today is the coldest day of the week, so I'm going with Bois Sikar.
It's about as liquid smoke as I've ever encountered.

I just got a new LV scent in. Quite nice, but right now is not the weather for it.
See if you can guess...
