Samples came in today:
1) TF - Fougere Platine: Metallic Fougere. Lavender and vague metalic notes. I think this was discontinued and I understand why. It's not particularly sexy or alluring. It's more of a scent oddity. Wouldn't wear.
2) TF - Tobacco Oud: Burnt cigar tobacco with a chocolate and oud backing. Surprisingly light despite the notes. It's okay but not particularly great. People online have said they love this stuff, but I don't see why. It's a soft tobacco- that's it. It's no surprise the tobacco when to Tobacco Vanille and the Oud went to Oud Wood. Both are better and more interesting combinations.
3) Acqua di Parma - Buongiorno: Citrus and florals. Clean but not soapy. Lavender and Musk in the body. Opens similar to Torino 21. Absolutely not worth $300+. Mugler cologne is still the best for neroli opening. 4711 can't be beat for citrus+florals and Nichane Colognise is the best citrus Musk i've smelled in a long time. That musk actually holds.
4) Guerlain - Patchouli Paris: Very nice patchouli and chocolate. Smooth and sexy. I think this is unisex. The only problem is the price tag, but if people are buying TF stuff at full price and the airy synthetic dogshit at LV, then this is just an upgrade.
5) Comporta - Dapper: Green herbal and fresh opening (cucumber + tomato leaf) into an earthy woody body and base. This one is very interesting, but it smells like a fresh pungent vegetable garden. Smells healthy. It smells like a tomato vine. Not the berry but the green chlorophyll vine. Very interesting smell.
6) Zaharoff - Signature Pour Homme: Lavender and Cypress with black pepper gives it a sharp woody floral opening that goes down to oud+rose+vanilla in the base very slowly. It's technically a very good men's fragrance.
