Winter is at it's climax here in Canada as we are about to apporach Spring. Going to a trip to the Dominican in a little while and I'm curious: what are your favourite scents for the summer? As of right now, my favourite scent is Aromatix La Platine Blanc. It hits all the right notes I'm looking for in a tropical vacation. Definitely pulls heavily from Torino21 by Xerjoff, but to me more "mojito-y".
Kind of self explanatory all. What’s the top three that is in this house? I’ve got: Oud wood Italian Cypress Plum Japonaise All oddly discontinued. All 10/10. Yet Tom Ford as a business model is absolutely shit. You have a Ferrari and replace it with a Honda. Or not replace it at all and simply put out crappier frags. wtf.
Newer to the Tom Ford lines but I'm already a fanboy lol. Ombre Leather Tobacco Vanille Fucking Fabolous I personally own Oud Wood and Black Orchid. Oud wood is nice but muted at times, and Black Orchid is extremely polarizing (even though I love it personally).
This is compared with Carolina Herrera Cobalt, which I’ve smelled before, but need a sample to see how close it is. From the opening Shiyaaka Shadow opens more citrusy due to the grapefruit note, a bit spicy, resinous, slightly green, mossy and woody. Not a ground breaking scent to me, but pretty good, easy to wear and mass appealing.
