Re: I think I finally understand Polo Double Black, but...

It's OK, but I like Black better. Black seems more straightforward to me, and Double Black always makes me smell like a taco (what causes that?).

Re: Need some suggestions...

Rochas Lui has a nice patchouli and vanilla drydown. The original John Varvatos also has a vanilla element to it and is an easy-going, pleasant scent. Both smell great and would be a bit different...

Re: Perfect Everyday Frag

If you want sharp, I would suggest Encre Noire. It has a certain sharpness to it, but I think it's very agreeable for everyday wear.

For clean, how about one of the Gendarmes? Or perhaps Paco...

Re: Who's your Reviewer?

There is one reviewer who particularly seems to like the same kinds of things I like, so I often look to that person's reviews, with generally reliable results. As far as I can tell, that reviewer...

Re: Negative Reviews-Should I write more?

I think you should write what you want to write. I like your writing. Just do what you feel.

Re: What is your best inexpensive frag purchase

I bought a 1.7-oz bottle of Everlast Original 1910 for $2.95. I would say that has been my best bargain because it smells great, and you can't beat that price.

I also agree with Mustang, mentioned...

Re: Consistency - Is there a frag you like each and every time you wear it?

I like everything I have, but I am a rotator, and I enjoy each one every time I put it on. Perhaps if I wore just one repeatedly, I might not like it consistently, but I've never tried that.

Re: Bois 1920 Real Patchouli

I see Montale Patchouli Leaves mentioned above. I sampled that one and liked it very much. Have you tried it? I haven't tried the others you mentioned yet but thought that the Montale would be a very...

Re: light, resinous frags suggestions?

You might like Etro's Messe de Minuit as well. I find it a light and pleasant incense fragrance.

Re: What was the first fragrance you bought after joing basenotes?

I think it was Escada Pour Homme. I saw it at a discount store after reading about it here, and I bought it. I was (and still am) pleased.

Re: Tauer L'air du Desert Marocain - Blind Buy?

Glad you got the samples from Tauer. I did too. I got my sample of L'Air about a year ago, and I still have quite a bit left. A little goes a long way with this one. I didn't like it much at first...

Re: Favorite Everyday Fragrance

The one I want to reach for every day is Boss Bottled, but I stop myself because I like to wear a different fragrance each day. That makes it more fun to come back to, although I do think it would...

Re: If I like Tumulte, what else . . . ?

Thank you for your suggestions; I will definitely be trying many of them.

To zliang, I do not find Tumulte to be much stronger than Equus, and I have the EDP version of Equus; they both seem about...

If I like Tumulte, what else . . . ?

With autumn in full swing, I am hauling out the cedar chest. Today I wore Tumulte and enjoyed it, although I wish it were a bit stonger. That said, what else might I want to try in the same vein? I...

Re: Ten new members who have an interest in sampling

I would never ask for the samples myself, and am not, but I have to say that this is a kind and generous offer. Very nice.

Re: Gendarme?

I have Gendarme 20 and like it OK. It has strong lavender at the beginning and a musk base that I find very nice. It lasts pretty well on me. It's not a favorite, but I do like to wear it...

Re: Was L'Anarchiste a big disappointment ?

It was so-so to me. The Clark's Teaberry gum mixed with ham glaze opening was somewhat interesting, but the drydown reminded me of Egoiste, which I don't particulary care for.

Re: help me here

For your purpose, I would choose Third Man.

I love Encre Noire, but it doesn't wear like a "fragrance" in that it doesn't smell like something that most people would identify as a cologne, if that...
