Congrats @Will Southard on the launch of your house discovery set! Beautiful boxes and room for expansion.

Today is a warm here in Silicon Valley and it’s predicted to hit the 80’s. I’m wearing my version of Creed Aventus from Eternal Perfume Oils — Maxim. With its fruity notes of apple, lemon, and pineapple, with the backing strength of cedar, musk, and abroxan, it’s a great scent to wear on a warm day. Also, today being March 16, it’s also my birthday. Enjoy your Monday folks.

As requested a few weeks ago by @Lon Chaneyfield, here is my collection as of 16th March 2026. Pic 1 is niche. Pic 2 is designer loud. Pic 3 is designer quiet. Pic 4 is ME. Pic 5 is cheapies. Pic 6 is shared fragrances with my wife. As you’d expect, there’s overlap on the categories. I should probably arrange them like my wife does hers, with one category: vibes. Not pictured, my 13 discovery sets, my travel atomiser scents, my 100+ sample collection. So… what fragrances am I missing?

I just lost a whole long post, including pictures and a poll question asking for advice, because after battling the EDT vs the EDP today I’m stuck on which Sel d'Issey I want to get… but this stupid Skool app bugged out and I lost everything as I was trying to scroll up and click the post button. The entire text box with my post content just disappeared. Dammit dammit dammit. This app is buggy AF and I hate it. This isn’t the first time I’ve lost a post after writing it. I guess I have to write things up in my Notes app on my phone or whatever and then copy paste it into the app. I don’t have the energy to reconstruct my post tonight, so instead, you get my little rant here. Thank you in advance for indulging me…

Hey good people, snowstorm day here in Canada. No school, so I’m working from home. I decided to wear IA Every Storm A Serenade, a beautiful fragrance; one of good ones from the house. A fresh, moody and very different from a typical aquatic scent! I get decent protection and longevity, 5-6 hours on skin.
