Annual checkup. Doc says you smell good. I say Creed Green Irish Tweed. He immediately says "Cary Grant". He tells me he has it at home but has mostly switched to PDM for longevity, since once he leaves home he doesn't re-spray. Pretty cool.

I acquired this Nicolai 30ml last weekend at ScentFest. It’s the same juice as Bois Belize Intense; they simply dropped the Intense (this isn’t the case with their New York line). Bois Belize is an exceedingly refined 3-season offering with smoky maté tea, guaiac wood, dry spices, and a restrained rose, niche perfumery at its finest.

Good morning gentlemen. One of my favourite citrus fragrances. Perfect for the gym or at work on a very hot day.

Today, Xerjoff Naxos was the perfect choice for a casual day at the office in San Antonio—its refined blend of honey, tobacco, lavender, and citrus projects confidence without ever feeling overpowering. Even with South Texas temperatures pushing into the mid-90s, Naxos remained remarkably composed, opening bright and aromatic before settling into a smooth, sophisticated sweetness that drew compliments without dominating the room. It proved once again that a well-crafted fragrance isn’t reserved for formal occasions; paired with smart business casual attire, Naxos elevates an ordinary workday into one marked by understated elegance.

Wearing the OG and I guess I mean an old batch. People say the newer stuff doesn’t last long but mine is 6-7 on clothes and I spray heavy. I’ve been wearing this since 1996 and I guess it’s my “signature scent” because I don’t have one because this just defined me for so long. Citrus, marine, and fresh. The birth of aquatic fragrances. Timeless. Classic. I don’t need to preach to any of you.
