Re: Need suggestions for my next order

John Varvatos Vintage for sure...Its Tobacco but it sweets towards the end. If you like Burb. London, this is sure to please.

Re: Non 80's frags, which smell like 80's powerhouse

No one seems to have mentioned YSL's Jazz Prestige (maybe too obvious). Its definitely a powerhouse fragrance modeled after the original Jazz but it has a minty, apple note in the top notes. It...

Re: Power by Fifty Cent - Darn A Celeb Scent That Not Run of The Mill !

Two things:

1) This is definitely not as innovative as the notes would suggest. This is a fruity, woody, amber scent that really doesn't add much to the world of perfumery.

2) I hope this...

Re: Fifty cent fragrance

Just smelt this at Macys yesterday...this scent is pretty lame to me. It wasn't especially pleasing or original. A different take on fruit and woods (definitely not an 80's-esque scent). I hate to...

Bvlgari Pour Homme Soir

Subtle. A well-done tea note accentuated by papyrus, bergamot, and amber. Nice.

Re: Question aboute Antaeus, M7 and Gucci PH.

Herrera for Men Concentree - Any thoughts?

I am a big fan of the original but I often wish it had a little more potency (sillage mostly). Has anyone tried the Concentree version?

The Angel that Killed Me

I smelt Angel perfume once at a beauty counter, and though I thought it was not for everyone, I definitely found it pleasant and wearable.

Re: Warm gourmand-ish designer scents for winter

If anyone's really curious about Animale Animale, Perfumania is selling it for $20 bucks through Nov. 9th or something. I think it works but it can be dangerously cloying if used unsparingly. ...

Question Similar to Rive Gauche?

Sometimes I wish that I was older. There are a few scents that I love, such as Rive Gauche, that seem too mature for my crowd (I'm 22 years old). I don't believe Rive Gauche is an old man's scent,...
