Brothers, here are a few standout posts from the BOS community this week. 1. @Tim Nicklis — Least Favorite Fragrance in Your Collection 😬💨 Tim asked the question nobody wants to answer but everyone has an opinion on: what's your LEAST favorite scent? The thread exploded with blind-buy regrets, "loved it in the store, hated it at home" stories, and honest takes on what sits collecting dust. A must-read for anyone building a collection — learn from the community's misses: https://www.skool.com/bos/least-favorite-fragrance-in-your-collection 2. @Michael LoCascio Sr — The Hawas Rat Race Is Getting Insane 🏁 Michael's been collecting Rasasi Hawas flankers from the beginning — he's got 7 on the shelf — but the release pace is getting wild. The thread turned into a great debate about which flankers are actually worth it. If you're feeling the flanker fatigue, you're not alone: https://www.skool.com/bos/the-hawas-rat-race-is-getting-insane 3. @Lon Chaneyfield — Growth Within the Fragrance World 🌱 Lon dropped some real wisdom: too many collectors stay in the same lane, buying the same profiles, chasing the same trends.

Pronounced "See-ah-j", is the French/technical term for the trail created by a scent when it is worn on the skin. It comes from the French for "wake" and can best be described as how a fragrance diffuses "in a person's wake," or behind the wearer as they move. A fragrance need not be a heavy one to have a large sillage. Sillage is not the same as projection (how a fragrance is perceived by others around the wearer). Instead, it is enhanced by motion and ambient temperature as well as the inherent qualities of the skin (as well as, to refer to my last post, if it contains Davana flower, or other similar "chameleon" ingredients). It (the skin chemistry) becomes a substrate to the scent. For the aforementioned "ambient temperature", this is why some scents, such as the Rayhaan Lion eau de parfum I previously posted, would be considered "too intense" for summer/hot weather. Whereas, the Armani Stronger With You line, for example, is better in cold weather; claimed by many to have a sillage over a kilometer. The video attached to this features a perfume student rating different men's colognes, and also mentions "sillage", among other terms. Also, her reaction to Armani SWYA from 4:58 to 5:30 is priceless ;-)

I want to say happy mothers day to the ladies of the group, if they are. Also a happy mothers day to all of the members mothers & spouses if you have children. Make it a special one for them fellas! 💯
