Lattafa Asad vs Club De Nuit urban man elixir. So far I'm noticing the Asad is more of a skin sent compared to the Urban man elixir. Im aware of what each is like but the Asad takes twice the amount of sprays as the Urban man elixir take to have the same projection. Maybe the Asad needs to sit a bit but so far of the comparison is that the Asad is more toned down than the Urban man elixir. Will continue with tests.

Gents, it’s been a month since I last posted here—for good reason. I just finished a month-long perfume fast. I started collecting not too long ago, and everything was going great… until my wife “noticed” that everyone at home was having allergies. I knew it wasn’t the fragrances, but she kept insisting they were the culprit. So I proposed a deal: “Alright, no sprays for 30 days. If after that we’re fine, and then a fragrance sets us off, I’ll toss the entire collection.” She was aghast. Well, we did it. And during that no-fragrance period, allergies kept happening anyway—our daughters coughing at night, my wife with sore eyes and throat. I never missed a chance to joke: “Maybe we’re allergic to perfume bottles,” or “ah yes, scentless perfume strikes again.” Finally, she admitted it was just spring allergies (we’re in the southern hemisphere). Which means: I’m happily back to spraying my favorite fragrances without guilt.
