Left this blank on purpose. When you wear fragrance constantly, your olfactory receptors adapt. It’s a real thing called olfactory fatigue. Your brain starts filtering the scent out, which makes fragrances feel weaker and pushes people to overspray. Taking a short break lets those receptors reset, so when you come back, you actually perceive the notes, transitions, and balance properly. Also, perfume isn’t meant to mask your natural scent. With clean skin and clothes, your baseline scent is already neutral. Fragrance is meant to enhance that, not replace it. So no scent today. Just letting the nose recalibrate.

After the post i made on favourite fragrance of the year, i noticed a lot of fragrance from the same house. So i wanted to ask what your favourite house was this year? I think for clones it was french avenue, designer is definitely Hugo Boss and niche is definitely amouage (even though i haven't tried any)

Going with a big favorite of mine, TF Beau de Jour. I wish this wasn’t discontinued. Such a beautiful fragrance for any office professional.

I am running out of room especially on my niche shelf. I really need to sell or trade these Bonds and Creeds. Still thankful for every bottle especially some very special gifts I got from my Brother @Paul Bartnicki. It’s amazing mind boggling even how we have basically become family in such a short time I wouldn’t have it any other way. Any recommendations are welcome beyond giving away frags lol.

I wrote to Montagne Parfums and they responded. Just wanted to share this with the #Brotherhood To: - Hello@montagneparfums.com,<hello@montagneparfums.com> Morning guys! I've been a customer for a couple of years now and I absolutely love everything you guys are doing! I actually reached out to you to do an interview a couple years ago because I was in NYC, but you guys responded saying you don't have a storefront. Anyways, I wanted to tell you that I recently noticed that you allowed Montagne Parfums listings on Parfumo!! I don't know if others realized yet, but I did and wanted to tell you guys that I REALLY appreciate you for allowing that! I have a medium sized collection (1600+) and it really helps to be able to have as many bottles listed there. So just wanted to drop a line to tell you guys that. I also do fragrance reviews as Joe Average! ...anything but... Thanks !! Mr. Renato A. Carotti, P.E.
