Gents. I’m young in this hobby. And I’m glad to be apart of this hobby. And I am learning so much from you all. I’m thankful. However, I’m hoping you all can help me with an issue. When starting this journey, I wanted to accumulate as many fragrances as possible so that I had choices. Most are dupes of the best designer and niche brands I can’t afford. Now I have some designers. And I went to Nordstrom’s to get samples and played with all the niche today. And it occurred to me. Even after watching countless hours of YouTube videos, in the beginning I didn’t care. But now, IT’S A MUST. I must have a magnetic 🧲 cap or a heavy cap and a pressurized atomizer. I feel like I’m autistic or I have OCD. It’s supposed to be ABOUT THE JUICE. But my first judgement is that cap. How heavy is it in my hand? Does it snap back. The atomizer, I push it half way or all the way for a full cloud. If I had a judging system as good as ( AAAAAA ) I would have this IN THE criteria. What is wrong with me? I have a bottle of Missoni and just because it has a heavy magnetic cap I’m going to tell you it’s better than what it really is. I have a problem here guys… 😫

Dry and Smoky here in Colorado, but the smoke keeps the sun at bay a little bit so it wasn't super hot. This is one that I really enjoy wearing on wet spring and summer days since the scent reminds me of petrichor. However today, I felt like I could use something musky and woody, yet kind of dewey. For being a woody, ambery.fougere, it does seem like there's a hint of citrus in there which helps with the freshness. And I'm not sure if it's just me, but I swear I'm getting a little saltiness in the dry down. Exceptional longevity for a designer freshie. Thoughts?
