Mail Call - 4/6/2026

I kept seeing all the hype around Michael Malul & Gents Scents West Loop and South Slope, so I decided to keep an eye out, especially after reading some positive reviews here. I managed to find both at a Marshall's near my rest stop this afternoon, but my budget only allowed me to pick one. I went with West Loop because that was the one that sounded most interesting. I haven't had a chance to do much more than spray it in the air (I decided to spray on IA's First Peach instead), but already I'm enchanted and can tell I won't be disappointed with the purchase.

Has anyone tried South Slope? I hated making Sophie's Choice, but I really have to be careful with my budget until my tax return hits.

When I got home, I had a bunch of packages waiting for me. One of which is a press release from Calvin Klein. They sent me a bottle of CK One Night Essence. The box is beautiful, but the fragrance in the air smells very generic. I'm always hesitant to share these here. I don't want anyone to think my opinion is biased when I get these or that I'm bragging about it. Let me know your thoughts.
