Curious if others are experiencing this as well, but when I first got into the hobby it wasn't uncommon for me to find Niche brands like Mancera, designers like Versace and Dolce and Gabbana and even YSL at the local rack store quite often. Some of my early posts on this site were of the bottles I picked up there. In the last few months it's been almost all the same Middle Eastern clones and the odd gem like Michael Mulal. Since my local rack store is a TJ Maxx, wondering if others are noticing a similar as well? Is it time of year and it'll pick up once holiday stock gets put out to discounters? I'm still pretty new to the hobby so I'd be curious what others who have more experience might have to say on this topic. Like is it just cyclical or is there been a noticeable decline in selection and quality of late where you are as well? I've been noticing similar declines in just overall selection and quality of goods. Gone. Are the days where you could buy $50 Tom Ford candles there that's for sure.

It may be winter other places, but here in Arizona it was 80 during the day and low 60’s in the evenings. I tend to wear a lot of freshies during the day and to the gym. Also been consciously trying to wear as many ATH’s as I can, while I can. Red Fever along with the body butter was worn to an outdoor concert Friday night, and Porthole was worn to a golf tournament Saturday. See any of your favorites on here? Post inspired by @Andrew G. and his weekly wears.
