SOTD 5 day summary

Good afternoon Fragrance Family

I didn't get a chance to post this weekend so here's a summary of Friday - Today's scent choices.

Friday- BTSO ;Drunk Lovers- I always rave about this one when I get the chance. It's in my top ten in my collection and every time I wear it I remember the first day I smelled this. Berries, cognac, citruses, pepper,ginger sage cypress, sandalwood, cedar, amber, vanilla, cardamom, patchouli, cinnamon....and more blended to perfection. Other than the berries in the opening nothing stands out from the rest too much. Some have mentioned longevity issues but I've experienced a solid 3 hours of projection, 3 with a respectable bubble with the remainder sitting closer to the skin(8 hours total). I highly recommend a sample.

Saturday -Xerjoff;Shunkoin- I would describe this as unisex. It has a powdery feel that's more masculine surrounded by sandalwood, orris, tea, vanilla, woody notes olibanum and cherry blossom. This is a alluring adults only scent in my opinion. Longevity 10+ hours on my skin but not a projection beast. A sultry sillage would be a better description.

Sunday- Paris Corner ;Kahella Platinum- This is a solid clone of Le Beau Parfum. I bought this as a backup to my Le Beau EDT but I reach for this more often in a attempt to preserve the OG. This has zero coconut in the notes but they have somehow managed to fully capture the Le Beau DNA with mint, bergamot, lemon, lavender, Orange blossom, cardamom, vanilla, tonka bean and amber. Longevity 10+ hours with decent sillage but doesn't project like the OG.

Monday-Creed; Original Vetiver- My favorite vetiver in my collection Creed did a solid job here. Citrusy, musky and a little earthy. Incredible longevity for a Creed fragrance. 16+ hours. I still could smell this on me the following morning 😲.

Tuesday-Givenchy Gentlemen Boise- The only gentlemen in my collection and proud to have this one. This is sooo good and unique. Warm and smooth like suede with a beautiful cocao note. Your notes here are black pepper, geranium and coriander. Mid iris, cocao pod and cedar. The base sandalwood, woody notes and patchouli. Longevity here is another 8+ with average sillage and average projection.

Hope you all had a great weekend and have a good week ahead.
