The ultimate Battle of the Blues has dropped! Which one truly deserves the crown: the Timeless King or the Modern Powerhouse? I put Bleu de Chanel EDP and YSL Y EDP head-to-head to determine who defines the color blue in the fragrance world, and before you ask where Dior Sauvage is, it will come in future battles. My take is that while Bleu de Chanel is quiet confidence and polished professionalism, YSL Y is high-octane ambition and better projection for the price. The Real Conflict: Where Do They Win? - Refinement vs. Loudness: Bleu is smooth sophistication, Y is assertive energy. - Office Winner: Bleu de Chanel (Polished Professionalism) - Club Winner: YSL Y EDP (Magnetic & Loud) - Scent Profile: Bleu leans creamy sandalwood/citrus; Y leans vibrant apple/ginger/incense. The Question for the Group: If you could only keep ONE of these blue titans forever—the confident class of Bleu de Chanel EDP or the youthful power of YSL Y EDP—which one is your pick? AND WHY?

Another Eros day for me with flame today. Sweet, spicy with that classic Eros touch. Perfect for a chilly windy day working half outside and half in. Smell great brothers. Have the best day.

While at EPCOT yesterday with our Brother @Dave Anderson we had the opportunity to meet Gier Ness the founder of the house or Gier Ness and their perfumer. Geir Ness is a Norwegian designer house who appeared in perfume industry in 1995 with his first perfume for women, Laila, a fresh essence from Norway. They now have 4 fragrances 2 which are considered unisex and 1 which is more masculine leaning. I own 2 of the fragrances (see below) and am waiting to see if their new limited release FOSS goes down in price. If you have not had the chance to smell these I really recommend you getting some samples (https://geirness.com/).

Michael Malul / Amber + Smoke — I would describe it as a much quieter, smokier, earthier BR540. Not a clone of BR540 but more of a different take with the BR540 DNA, dry down is where I believe this fragrance is going to shine the best. Smokey, with a hint of leather, pine tar, sweet amber, & woody.

Be honest guys have I got a good collection here? (the sample on the far right is althïar)
