This week, I slipped in a couple of clone fragrances. I couldn't resist the BF prices on these fragrances that seem to have captured a large audience of admirers. I am happy with both Mango Ice and Afnan Supremacy Collector's Edition, but not quite enamored. Early days yet. Favorite this week was again Decision. I know I keep saying Outlands is my favorite fragrance, but that position seems to be endangered.

Good morning Frag Fam. It’s a little warmer in Chicago today, which I’ll gladly take, but it also has me missing summer something serious. Still grateful for the day ahead and ready to make the most of it, scenting up and staying positive as always. Black Phantom Memento Mori by Kilian is a fragrance I picked up earlier in my niche journey, and it remains one of those bottles that reminds me why I fell down this rabbit hole in the first place. Dark, boozy, and unapologetically indulgent, it blends rum-soaked sweetness with coffee, chocolate, and a shadowy gourmand depth that feels both luxurious and rebellious. The sillage is outstanding, the projection is confident without being obnoxious, and the performance is elite, lingering for hours and hours with authority. This is a statement fragrance that still feels refined and intentional every time I wear it. A true masterpiece in my collection and an easy perfect score, 10.0.
