One man’s junk is this man’s treasure today. I’m wrapping up a job and as I’m leaving the superintendent’s office I see this cardboard box with frags in it collecting dust so I ask him about it. He told me one of the residents at the property sadly passed away then he ended up receiving these bottles. Lucky for me he’s a simple 2-3 bottle kind of guy as it is and after taking the two bottles he did like he gave these all to me 🤯. Granted these are all used some more substantially than others but hey, the Layton and double black was enough of a win for me alone. All the others are just a bonus. Og Nautica, tumi awaken, polo double black, Layton, JV XX artisan, BLV pour Homme, and Henry rose sheep’s clothing. At first sniff none of them seem to be spoiled either. It’s a good day to be a fraghead.

https://www.xerjoff.com Hey guys, Joe A. here with another one for ya! Today I had the distinct pleasure of meeting and listening to an inspiring talk from Sergio Momo, the visionary founder behind Xerjoff, a luxury fragrance house that has become synonymous with opulence, artistry and uncompromising quality in modern niche perfumery! Launched in 2003, Xerjoff was born from Momo’s passion for rare raw materials, meticulous craftsmanship and the belief that fragrance should be a full sensory luxury experience, right down to the weighty bottles and extravagant presentation. Momo’s background in design and his deep appreciation for Italian craftsmanship are evident in every aspect of Xerjoff, from scent structure to visual identity, making him not just a brand founder, but a true architect of modern luxury perfumery! #ScentXplore2025 #Xerjoff #EnjoytheJourney

Found this in the mail today! Thank you to @Antonio O. Centeno for the gift and much appreciated gesture! Thank you also for creating such a great forum for sharing knowledge, support, and friendship. It’s been a pleasure to be part of this group. I’ve learned a great deal from all of you and appreciate your support.

I just crossed over today. No, not to the beyond. 😂 To Level 8. I never thought I would reach this level. I want to thank everyone here for their generosity in sharing their love of fragrances. I have throughly enjoyed the conversations. The other day, I was reading about one of my favorite perfumers and there was a quote that stuck with me. "Whatever is not given, is lost" an old saying, which the legendary perfumer Carlos Benaïm cited as a philosophy that guided his life and career. Thank you for giving.

When I got back to the house I found this nice surprise in the mail. Thank you @Antonio Centeno for the card and challenge coin, and also continuing to be a leader off the battlefield in the civilian community. I’ve grown to enjoy this brotherhood immensely. I value having men to discuss the hobby with, to learn and grow not only in fragrance but in how we conduct ourselves with others. Much gratitude!
