Oooh you smell nice!

Totally agree - it’s a brilliant thread. And Moodynann should be working in the perfumery industry - incredible knowledge, passion and taste. And not a whiff of Merlot - which would please Miles in Sideways.

I picked up the 15ml of this not too long ago, I think it’s pretty nice, lots of saffron and pepper.

I got the 6 x 10ml sample set a month or so back. I got a couple of LV clones in there including Orchestra.

I pretty much like all 6 that I picked. Just trying to figure which ones suit me best (and have longevity).

Anyway, my missus likes Orchestra best and has worn it herself. Maybe I could get a his and hers bottle.

Aww yeah it’s really great to know there are some fellow fragheads on the forum. It’s nice to be able to pay it forward a bit. Dead chuffed this thread has flourished.

The wealth of music knowledge you guys have is incredible. I’ve discovered so many gems since joining. This is a brilliant little corner of the internet. No hassles, just great chat x

I need to explore some more Bastille fragrances.

Bataille sounds right up my rue. I love Tempo by Diptyque and this seems to be similar.

I’m going to abuse your knowledge here.

Here are fragrances I like:

Jo Malone - Scarlett Poppy
Le Labo - Another 13
Henry Rose - Windows Down
Byredo - Rose of No Man’s Land

What would you suggest if I wanted to try something new?

Ok. What’s your budget?

All lovely fragrances btw.

I mean the cost of the ones above is generally the benchmark. So $150 - $420.

The other sample I got was their dupe of LV L’immensite - grapefruit/ginger/bergamot

Another banger, bit more spicy and a nice addition I think.

It’s an ace thread, I’ve learned so much (and spent a few quid too :laughing:)

Was looking back through this and read your comment. Everything going well? End of a 30 year marriage is quite something.

I appreciate you checking in. The care for others shown in this forum never gets old.

I am well. The sale of joint property should be done this month, which will be a huge load off.
I’m happy to report that im still giddy in love with the girlfriend i mentioned previously. My mental health is good. 'm quite proud and a bit shocked by how i didnt sink into depression or unhealthy behavior.

Im stiill regularly wearing the minotaure and have grown into it nicely. My girlfriend still regularly comments on how i smell. Serendipitously, i received a surprise free second bottle in the mail a couple months after receiving the first, which was originally lost in the mail.

Lately, ive been toying with the idea of finding darker, muskier scent for when i want to shake things up a bit. As if this forum hasnt induced enough spending on music :slight_smile:

Best to all :heart:

Its not for everyone but Hermès H24 50ml is half price here. Worth bagging if mossy vibes are your thing!

Bought from these guys a few times. I believe they’re Manchester based.

H24 is a bit marmite for some. I love it. It’s very unique.

This forum is a lovely wee corner of positivity, and whilst I don’t know most of you I’ve met a few in person and obviously, you’re sound AF in real life. Cudos to @Apiento for this thing
