I really love the PdM scents, but $200-300/bottle is a bit much right now. Orientica Royal Blue is a really good Layton clone.

From a charming young woman. PdM Carlisle for the win!

Hello everybody, Enjoying some high(er)-end fragrances, but with a low-mid range pocket book. I LOVE PdM Carlisle, Layton and Herod. But don't love spending the $1000 the trio would run. So chasing down "the best clones." Arabian Horse is a Herod clone. It fits the scent profile pretty well, but is missing the creamy, high-polish quality that the original has. A guy can hope, right?

Introduce yourself and level-up, it's that simple! You'll get at least 5 likes (oftentimes more!) which will move you to level 2 and on your way to level 3 (these levels give you access to prizes!). What to say in your intro? Share where you're from, your reason for joining, your profession, perhaps your favorite fragrance or a picture of your entire collection! Whether you're a seasoned cologne collector or just starting, have fun engaging with the group.

It's raining. It's cold. I'm doing something good for myself in the long term but unpleasant and hard in the short term. That calls for a strong scent/psychological cue. "Commitment" by Mission Fragrances always reminds me of a juggernaut roller, crushing all opposition/obstacles in its way. Powering through and getting the job done. It is a very strong mental cue for me and always gets me psyched up. Today's challenge was significantly harder than anticipated. But I met my personal commitment and got it done. And am now relaxing and enjoying the fragrance. - Top Notes: Mimosa, Vanilla, Vetiver, Myrrh, Myrtle - Heart Notes: Olibanum, Tonka, Cedarwood, Guaiacwood, Pepper Spice - Base Notes: Patchouli, Mossy, Oud, Musk, Sweet Amber, Amber Wood, Pine Resin, Black Agar -
