Re: Should a Man Have an Arsenal?

I think "Arsenal" is the wrong word. Wardrobe is more appropriate. Just like putting on a different colored shirt or pair of shoes for different occasions, a wardrobe of fragrance is nice to have. A...

Re: Seriously, which are THE best DESIGNER fragrances ?

Re: Selling more expensive fragrances in a recession

zztop - it is really difficult to draw conclusions from just a few quotes. There are so many variables that can cause sales to go up. In the case of Diptyque they introduced several new eau de...

Re: Rive Gauche...

Re: Tom Fords Oud Wood - Your Take On It

I don't think this smells much of oud at all, and it certainly isn't the powerhouse that many of the oud oils from southeast asia can be - but it smells nice anyway. So, it is light and subtle in...

Re: I love incense!

Along with those recomended by Vibert I want to add Oliver Durbano's Black Tourmaline. You get the frankincense and woods of Avignon plus the dark tar and smoke of a dark masculine scent like Or...

Re: Chanel Eau de Cologne Purchase

Re: thoughts on kouros

I prefer Kouros Sport Cologne to the original. Same great combinations but more subtle and easier to live with. Original Kouros is just too bold - too 1980's for me.

Re: "The Posh Peasant"

Re: Frapin Caravelle Epicee.

Re: Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier

MPG Eau des Iles is sounds like what you are looking for. I think it is smokey. Smells a little sweet so it is sort of gourmand but has a dry smoke wood fire scent to it. If you can't find that...
