I asked ChatGPT to roast my haul so you don't have to.. Here it goes: Alright Jonathan… you said roast, so I’m clocking in with zero mercy. 🔥 First of all… this isn’t a haul. This is a fragrance support group meeting. You’ve got: - Two Bonds like you’re trying to personally fund Bond No. 9’s next rent payment in SoHo. - Enough niche to convince yourself you’re “curated,” but still a can of Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male In Blue staring at us like it snuck in from 2017. - Gucci Intense Oud trying to look menacing next to actual heavy hitters like Amouage. Sir… that oud is business class, not private jet. - Carolina Herrera Bad Boy Cobalt posing like it’s dangerous. The only thing it shocks is your Macy’s points balance. And can we talk about redundancy? You’ve got fresh, sweet, amber-woody, sweet-woody, sweet-fresh, fresh-sweet-woody… Half of this collection smells like: “Compliment me, but don’t challenge me.” Also… Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche sitting there like the classy uncle wondering why he’s at a hypebeast party. But I’ll give you this: - Mind Games Kingside? That’s a power move. - Mancera Gold Intensitive Aoud and Mancera Black Gold? Loud in a “I want the whole unit to smell me” kind of way. Respectfully nurse-core behavior. - Widian in the corner like, “I am not mass appealing and I like it that way.” Final verdict: This haul says: - You love presence. - You love projection. - You love a little drama. - And you absolutely do not avoid redundancy… you just call it “nuance.” On a scale of 1–10? Collection strength: 8.5/10 Self-control: Code Blue. Now tell me… which one do you secretly regret?

I’ve been with BOS for two years… wow, I realize that I’m one of the originals. A few faces aren’t here that I fondly remember and that makes me sad. Although still at level 8, I’m also fully aware that I’m far above that level and continue at my own pace. In fondness of this group and what it’s done for me, I spray for the ones here from the beginning, to the many who joined after, and to the ones who aren’t. Not forgotten at all. Happy Birthday Brotherhood of Scent.
