🧴 Weekly Challenge #2: The Forgotten Bottle
We all have one - that bottle sitting in the back of the shelf, collecting dust. Maybe it was a blind buy that didn’t hit right, or a scent you simply outgrew. 👉 This week’s challenge: Reach for that forgotten fragrance and wear it for a full day. Then come back here and share: - What scent did you pick? - How did it wear this time? - Did it surprise you - or confirm why you stopped wearing it? Sometimes rediscovering an old scent reminds you how much your taste has evolved. 💬 Let’s see what hidden gems (or regrets) resurface this week.

New to me pick ups.
I just scored a huge fragrance win! I picked up two amazing partial bottles for a great price: a 3/4 full 100ml Xerjoff Naxos—known for its beautiful honeyed tobacco and lavender warmth—and a 90% full 100ml Tom Ford Noir, famous for its spicy, powdery, and slightly dark elegance. To top it off, they threw in two generous 5ml samples: one of the popular, creamy fig and sandalwood scent, BDK Gris Charnel, and one of the opulent, fruity-woody fragrance, Argos Triumph of Bacchus. I'm thrilled to have these two incredible, high-quality fragrances in my collection, plus the added bonus of the exciting new samples!

SOTD: Neroli Portofino by Tom Ford 12/10/2025
Another Tf Sample Neroli is a unisex Aromatic/citrus fragrance from the Private Blend Collection. Created by perfumer Rodrigo Flores-Roux & released in 2011, its a bright, clean & transportive scent profile. It opens with an invigorating burst of fresh, crisp citrus. The dominant note is Tunisian neroli, which is a floral/lightly green scent derived from bitter orange blossoms. This is complemented by Italian bergamot and a hint of lemon, creates an effervescent, uplifting opening. As the fragrance settles, the citrus notes that remain but are joined by other floral elements. Orange flower & a beautiful jasmine add a touch of sweetness & a clean, soapy quality. I swear there is a dose of ambroxan in here but I cant even find it in the list of ingredients. The fragrance dries down to a clean, warm, musky base. The amber undertones & white musk provide a soft, silky layer that gives the scent some depth & helps it to linger on the skin. It's a classic cologne structure that has a luxurious feel. Imthinking this could be the Italian version of Costa Azzurra? A sun-drenched, carefree summer vacation on the Italian Riviera. Performance is ok at about 5 to 6 hrs, but the projection is like 90m then its gone. Considering the price, this aint right. They really should be able too do better. Its a total diservice to a beautiful fragrance. My Rating: 6.5/10 Scent: 2.5 Longevity: 2 Sillage: 1 Y/N: 1
