Trying to back into the swing of things here on SOTD... Geranium Pour Monsieur today, Sycomore Tuesday, and Corallium Monday. Love all three.

Nuit de Tubereuse today. Just the other day I mentioned that I wasn't a big fan of this one, but for some reason I felt compelled to give it another try today. It's better than I remembered. I recalled the tuberose being overpowered by the sharp peppery notes, but I'm not getting that so much this time. Still not my favorite tuberose, but not bad either. (Carnal Flower is still my favorite tuberose.)

The deoderant is fantastic. Quite potent for stuff with no aluminum, no parabens, and no alcohol.

today, Malle Bigarade Concentree. I think I still prefer Declaration.


I bought Encre Noire blind based on your suggestion and would like to thank you for suggesting such a brilliant fragrance.
Now, I guess I should not delay in sampling Jaipur and Envy.

Boucheron PH. A lovely light citrus. Perfect match for today's warm climate here.

Trying a sample of un Jardin Sur le Nil today. I thought I would like it better based on the in-store sniff. Not bad, but a little too sweet on the drydown, for my taste, to use regularly.

Past two days:

Idole Lubin - Very nice but I went through it during the nightly sweat off. I want this one.

Diving L'Homme Sage - Holy **** I want this one even more. This will be my next split.

Great! Glad you like it. IMO it's a very solid frag, with a beautiful box and bottle and at $40-50 for 100ml a serious value buy.
I'll admit I'm not that familiar with the Boucheron and Envy although I've had samples lying around for a few years and I just haven't got to them yet (

yeah, Divine L'Homme went through a big BN's raving period and then it sort of died off. Not so cheap or I would have bought it already but I might consider getting in on a trade. PM if you decide to get a bottle since I think I have a source for a good price.



Today, Hermes Voyage on the left, Jardin sur le Toit on the right. Voyage is pretty nice, but just too safe and all-rounded for my sort of collection. I've been liking Toit more and more. I find it quite juicy and freshyingly cool yet fruity, sort of like a cold glass of strongbow or something. I think I'll probably buy a bottle of Toit.
I recently tested Sur le Nil just based on the rec's but don't think it's my sort of scent.
