My picks before tariffs kick in…

As I’ve mentioned in some prior posts, I’ve got a “process” of working through decants to decide on what will ultimately be in my limited collection. Typically I prefer to work all the way through my decants before picking up a full bottle, but there are a few I know I will ultimately get, so I started placing orders now before prices go up.

Just ordered:

Boss bottled absolu (the 100ml is back in stock) and TF Tobacco Vanille at Jomashop
TF Oud Wood and D&G The One EDP from aurafragrance
Prada Luna Rossa Ocean EDT from fragrancenet

I’d pick up more now, but I want to prioritize spring/summer full bottles and I’m waiting on delivery for a bunch of decants for warmer weather that I need to test out before I move on to full bottles of anything else.

Here are my spring/summer picks I’m waiting on and how they will ultimately fit into my collection:

One daily wear citrusy freshie out of D&G light blue eau intense or summer vibes, Versace pour homme or eau fraiche, or ADP Fico di Amalfi
A 2nd daily wear that’s more woodsy/aromatic, out of Dior homme 2020 or Burberry hero edt, or maybe Dunhill Icon if I like it (it’s certainly cheap!)
One special occasion/date night out of Acqua di gio parfum, ADG Profondo edp, Myslf EDP, or Armani Code EDP
A 2nd special occasion/date night out of jpg scandal absolu, Gucci guilty elixir, La nuit de l’homme edt
One “louder” freshie out of intense cedrat Boise, Eros parfum or maybe Eros flame, or Aoud lemon mint

And then guys, I think I’m done collecting for now.
