Finally diving into my sample set from this new house. decided to start with number 8. Just a random choice. This one is beautiful, but its soft and intimate. Definitely not a projection beast. Its a little spicy and resinous. With a comforting woody base. There is a hint of florals that round this out nicely. It sort of reminds me of the lobby of a really nice beach resort. This is definitely unisex, but takes turns leaning a bit feminine then a bit masculine, then back in the middle. This would be a great scent for a night out while on vacation. Soft enough for work. This reminds me of something but I can’t quite place it, but it is definitely something that no one else will have. I am on the fence if this is full bottle worthy yet, but it is leaning that way. This 10 ml has a few more wears in it, but I do have to overspray it so it might go fast. If you guys can make it to Bloomingdale’s I say check it out. Stay smelling good my brothers.

Fragrantica posted a write-up recently about bottle designs. The good, the bad, the ugly. What say you? What are the tackiest and gawdiest bottles you have come across? What are the best? The One Million line has always screamed "obnoxious" to me. Conversely, I love all things Xerjoff when it comes to bottle design.
