"The Scent That Started Your Journey" Challenge (Winner gets a gift!)
Every fragrance enthusiast has a "Point of No Return." Itโ€™s that first bottle that made you realize scent isn't just about "smelling clean" - itโ€™s about identity, confidence, and how you choose to command a room. It was the moment you stopped grabbing whatever was on the bathroom counter and started building a signature. Today, weโ€™re kicking off a 7-day challenge to find the "Gateway Scent" that started your journey. The Challenge: "The Scent That Started Your Journey" We want to hear about the specific fragrance that opened your eyes. Maybe it was a gift that made you feel like a man for the first time, or a scent you saved up for because you saw it on someone you respected. What was the bottle that turned "getting ready" into a ritual? HOW TO JOIN (Super easy) Drop your story in the comments under this post. Use this quick format: 1. The Scent: What was the fragrance that started it all? 2. The Origin: Who wore it, or how did it find its way into your hands? 3. The Representation: What did that scent represent to you at the time? (Sophistication? Power? A new chapter?) 4. The Journey: Where has your fragrance journey taken you since that first bottle? Optional: Feel free to attach a photo of the fragrance.

SOTD: Guerlain Lโ€™Homme Ideal Cologne Forte
Newest addition to the collection. This is supposedly a limited release (hoping itโ€™s not). Picked it up from their website at full retail which hurt me deep in my soul lol. Before we get into the notes, this one has several similarities to Renaissance IMO and some differences that make it stand out. In the open you get grapefruit, lemon peel and bergamot. However I definitely am picking up a minty note right when you spray it. It makes the open a nice mint citrus which is awesome. This is where I think itโ€™s similar to renaissance. The open lasts a decent hour before I start to pick up the almond and some cinnamon. The almond isnโ€™t very nutty and slightly sweet. The grapefruit is still there but itโ€™s more subdued now. In the dry down I donโ€™t detect any incense but can smell some vanilla and Vetiver. Itโ€™s not an earthy or dirty vetiver more or a clean one. Overall performance was decent with just over 6.5 hours of longevity 5 of which I got some good projection of 1/2 to 1 arms length depending on what I was doing. Moving around definitely caused this one to project better than sitting still. This will be an excellent high heat frag.
