Well, these ones were trapped from my accustomed Burlington’s racks scanning: - Lattafa - Bade’e Al Oud Black Exposed $39.99 - John Varvatos - Vintage: $24.99

As a bit of background, I live in a region that grows a fair bit of wine and boutique and estate wineries are pretty common. Borrowing A concept that I really like from that industry: vertical tastings, where you experience wines ascoss multiple vintages to taste the differences and shifts year to year, I took the side-by-side comparison of Boss bottled. That was my last scent of the Day post and spent the week wearing different iterations and formulations of Burberry Hero. For context Hero EDP was my second/third fragrance in the collection alongside Invictus Victory Elixer. I bought them both the same time. Why choose one when you can choose two right? I think I was already getting pretty deep in at that point. So this week I started with the EDP and did a vertical wearing of the Parfum, Parfum Intense, and Elixer to get a sense of the development of the DNA. As expected, the EDP is as advertised. It's a effervescent cedar. Throughout that I always get hints of root beer or sarsaparilla, which I find incredibly appealing. It's also probably the least smooth as it's quite sharp and slightly loud. I haven't yet purchased the EDT because I found it even more like that. T The Parfum takes the core cedar and smooths it out while maintaining the intensity. Parfum Intense introduces a bit more sweetness and depth and cedar begins to be paired with more resinous and richer base. The Elixer Is the smoothest for sure? As cedar starts to fade more into the background and the Tonka vanilla leather notes really start to be more the star. All of them are solid designer fragrances and while I don't think everyone needs all of them as there's a bit of overlap, I would say that the EDP and elixir stand far enough. Apart that it's at the very least sampling both if this is a DNA that interests you. Also, if you're an enthusiast of the EDT, let me know. I'm still trying to convince myself to pick that one up so you may be able to convince me 😉 Gotta catch them all!

A long day at your desk and a client meeting call for different things. Silver Mountain Water brings an airy tea note; Original Vetiver is crisp and green. If you prefer woods, there’s Royal Oud. 💰 Creed Aventus EDP is about 33% OFF at Maxaroma, now $340 for 100 ml. https://get.aspr.app/SH1G66 Creed Himalaya EDP is about 35% OFF, now $318 for 100 ml. https://get.aspr.app/SH1IiC Look at the intensity row, gents. Which of these would you move up or down for a shared office, and what Creed would you put on the chart that isn’t there?

In the office today, and went with Dolce&Gabana's Intenso - have to say, I think the name is a bit misleading. The scent profile below is pretty accurate for me - the lavender, geranium, cypress and hay are prominent, though, struggle to detect the tobacco....? In any event, for me, fresh, clean, slightly green (in a good way!), definitely one for a business/business casual environment. Despite some comments, I've found the longevity pretty decent for this type of fragrance, 5hrs in, still going.
