Looking for a warm spicy scent. Whatās your favorite?
Hey brothers, Iām looking for a rich, warm spicy scent to add to my cooler weather collection. Fragrantica lets you search by specific notes but not main accords like āwarm spicyā, so I could use some crowdsourcing help. Ideally a designer or accessible niche (not crazy expensive but not a cheapie/dupe, and not too challenging). Iāve got tobacco and vanilla focused fragrances pretty well covered - l donāt mind some sweetness in the new one, but Iād love more depth and richness that doesnāt go in an overly sweet direction. I like amber, woods and spices, but leather, oud and boozy notes can be a challenge. Iris, Rose, Plum, Florals, Almond and Oud notes are a hard no. Any suggestions? Whatās your favorite? In terms of cooler weather frags that have a Fragrantica āwarm spicyā accord at or near the top, I have and love: - TF Noir Extreme, Oud Wood - ATH Tabac Extreme - Swiss Arabian Incense 01 - Lalique OmbrĆ© Noire - Boss Bottled Absolu - YSL La Nuit EDT Here are some near misses Iāve tried: - Sauvage Elixir: comes very close but I donāt love the licorice and maybe the nutmeg. Same for Gisada Ambassador Intense - Spicebomb Extreme: nice but I get something like a strong cumin which I donāt love. Donāt love the other flankers either - Bulgari MIB: nice but something about it (the leather, I think) doesnāt work for me. - Oud for Greatness: I really want to like this one but donāt think I can get past the earthiness - Blonde Amber: comes close, but it didnāt blow me away for the price - I have yet to find an Amouage warm spicy scent that I like⦠Boundless, Decision and Outland are noās Whatās your favorite? What should I try out?
