I’m curious what’s your preference when it comes to these Fragrance Lines , and what is the deciding factors

Hi Antonio. Thank you very much for the gifts. I really appreciate it.

They finally arrived — and I opened the box like a kid on Christmas morning who specifically asked for swagger. After much anticipation, this evening I received both new fragrances from the house of Elyon Dubai (Curly’s Fragrances), and even though I only planned a quick test, I ended up doing a full sniff-session like a sommelier with a grudge against subtlety. BLUF: I am thrilled with the blind buy — these two just earned a seat at the table next to my Tom Ford, Creed, and Xerjoff. Infinity smells like a luxury night drive in a leather interior — smooth woods, a soft touch of sweet fruit, and just enough rose to whisper, “Yes, this costs money.” It’s the fragrance equivalent of pulling up in a blacked-out car with ambient lighting, even if you’re really just going to Walgreens. Himeros (my favorite) is Infinity’s darker, mysterious cousin — the one with a motorcycle, excellent hair, and zero interest in returning phone calls. It’s smoky, leathery, sweet in the most dangerous way, and powerful enough that one spray feels like you’ve just entered a villain’s penthouse. Definitely not my usual “office-safe” choice, but tomorrow night it’s coming with me to the Cowboy Dance Hall. A cowboy with Middle Eastern flair? Boots, leather, oud energy? The fragrance is already doing more line-dancing than I am.

In an effort to try and organize the mess of samples and decants I have on my shelf, I enlisted a coworker that has a 3d printer at home to help me create these organizers for the different size bottles that I have. I think they came out great and wanted to share them. He’s going to send me the plans for future use, and to share if anyone’s interested in creating their own.

Decisions, decisions! Beautiful collection of unique fragrances by Aromatix (Neeb).
