The Precious Liquid was courtesy of @Antonio Centeno thank you.. I am very grateful for the gift.. precious indeed..

Today I’m wearing Hombre by Aaron Terence Hughes. This was a blind buy based on a recommendation from @Steve Louis and his review, and honestly, no regrets at all. This fragrance is awesome. The note list says citrus on top, but on my skin it jumps straight into the clary sage. I’m getting that aromatic herbal opening right away with a bit of vetiver already coming through. If there’s any citrus, it’s gone in seconds. This thing goes immediately into that smooth aromatic territory. I went full spray today — wrists, elbows, sides, and behind the ears — and what I love is that Ombre doesn’t shout, but it absolutely has presence. It sits confidently without needing to be loud, which I’m starting to appreciate more and more. I might actually be turning into a huge fan of ATH as a house.

My DecantX delivery, including decants of Nefs, Creme de Cuir, and Diptyque Orpheon was taken minutes after being delivered. I am trying to figure out who steals a Fedex envelope? What makes it worse is that another package was stolen 4 weeks ago.

Ok, I searched the posts and hadn't seen one of these for quite some time, so I apologize if I missed one. I'd like to hear what our current 10/10 fragrances are. I know our noses change over time, and we are always making new discoveries, so let's hear it. What are your holy grails?
