This is it gents! This one marks the last purchases of 2025. Quite frankly, I feel I'm pretty set, and expect very few adquisitions next year. Have a huge amount of decants to go over, and can no longer see finishing a bottle again, despite my collection being tiny!

This is the only oud-ish along Versace Oud Noir that I have REALLY liked, but while waiting for it, I had been heavily wondering... when would I use it? It's already on the heavier side of my fragrance-preference spectrum, but add the usual warm weather here... don't know. But... it's just so good... I do have a Ralph's Club Elixir on order at Jomashop, when it came out at an awesome price. When I placed the order, ETA was 1-2 weeks. That was almost 2 weeks ago. I'll just wait it out, am in no rush. Jomashop things...

Well it’s warm and muggy on the bayou, looks to be this way the rest of the Christmas season, perhaps the year. Went with this today as I find it more of a Fall fragrance and well we’re back in our “fall”. Le Male Elixir by Jean Paul Gaultier is an Oriental Fougere fragrance for men. Top notes are Lavender and Mint; middle notes are Vanilla and Benzoin; base notes are Honey, Tonka Bean and Tobacco. Welcome on board!The new sailor Le Male Elixir will induce burning cravings and drive your senses crazy. Burning desire spreads with the irresistible notes of fresh lavender, warming tonka bean, and gentle benzoin. With a gilded torso, this fiery novelty from Jean Paul Gaultier embodies radiant power and seductive charisma. It is finished! You melt away with burning desire. This intense fragrance ignites the fire of the senses on his upper body and gives the soft skin a burning sensuality. After a refreshing breeze of mint, the tide rises to addiction, becoming a glowing elixir. In this breath of fresh air, dashing lavender quickly takes on lusty proportions, enhanced by the balsamic richness of benzoin with syrupy vanilla accents. The tonka bean trumps with its warm and sweet tones between honey and tobacco. The time has come: You jump! Radiant at first sight, glowing with masculinity, more fiery than ever. The torso is bursting with muscles, the skin is bathed in copper color by the sinking sun. What a Gaultier body... what accomplished style. Finely chiseled grooves stand out on its muscles dipped in gold and merge with the amber stripes of the sailor shirt, which plays with transparency effects in a highly sexy way.
