Musc Pallas: Jovoy Paris

------------------------------------

*Tested this today. This is a sweet skin scent fragrance. I can't even name what it is that I smell. I don't smell the notes listed and that molecular note, I have no clue what it smells like.

I'm subscribed to Steve, but most of the time I don't watch his videos...

This looks interesting though



They also make it in a "solid" form. I've never heard ANYTHING good about solid fragrances

I have a Caribbean vacation coming soon.

Which fragrances would you guys wear for this trip?
It would help if I posted a list of my summer scents but I'm feeling lazy. Maybe I'll do that later.

So I'm going with

Sedley - Parfums de Marly - easy wear for the flight.
Pacific Rock Moss - Goldfield & Banks - daytime wear.
Bohemian Lime - Goldfield & Banks - will probably wear this the most
Isola Blu - Roja Parfums - I might try this on at night for a nicer evening at the bar or restaurant

All decants.

I have other things but they're bottles that are too large to travel with, or they're under the limit but I'm nervous TSA will give me a hard time and I won't risk losing a pricey bottle.

This was a poor planning because I could have gotten a lot of inexpensive decants of summer fragrances (somehow I still never sampled any Acqua di Parma) and I suspect one of those would have been an easy grab. I do have a 1ml sample of Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Eau Intense but it doesn't have a spray nozzle and using a dabber is messy and annoying. I haven't even worn the sample because not having the spray irritates me.

SOTDs
1) PDM - Althair - meh - went from top 10, to not mentioned at all. Hype is gone. One of the minority PDMs I have in a dabber, damn near spilt all of it. *shrugs*. Will not be replaced

2) Mes Bisous - Tobacco flirting with Vanilla - it's in the name, mostly a Vanilla scent

Sometimes I think the tobacco + vanilla thing with fragrances is getting boring. Very few pull it off well.

It's like how everyone combined rose + oud.

We get it, man.
Do something else.

If I'm hating tho, I'll fall back. I'm usually wrong about things here.

Fire At Will: Jovoy Paris

--------------------------------------------------------------------


*Tested this yesterday. This smells like caramel. Nothing special. I got caramel fragrances that I paid less than $60 that are better. I think if they didn't add the brown sugar note then it might have been a more memorable vanilla fragrance.

Remember Me: Jovoy Paris

-------------------------------------------------------------

*Wore this today. I like this 1. I smell almost all the notes. The cardamon and tea was the strongest.

The dry down is a milky vanilla. This kinda strong.

Smells like a perfumer's idea of mango, but different than say "mango soda".

Pretty good, very sweet.

The age old question, Niche or Designer?

I like the fact he gave his impression of the notes, AND NONE OF THEM MATCH!

I still need to get my nose on a few of them, Triumph of Bacchus. That and God of Fire by Stephane Humbert Lucas
