I'm wearing Death or Glory Born Wild

it smells good but I don't have anymore because the lady gave me samples

btw, have any Coli brehs get colored stains on your shirt collars even when you spray it on your neck?

I'm getting that Ed Hardy cologne next month, I like it

also can any reccomend colognes that have a citrus scent to them?

SOTD - Amouage - Outlands

I have definitely doubled up on V&R Spicebomb Dark Leathers, both the Burberry Hero flankers, and Gucci Guilty Loves - quite annoying.

But I ordered Cece's Amouage joint from 2024. They (the interwebz) was glazing this joint to high heaven, but I do like her stuff (Royal Tobacco and Oud Zarian)

This list of note is pretty fire
  • Top Notes: Cardamom, Bergamot, Lemon, Sichuan Pepper, Elemi, Frankincense
  • Heart Notes: Patchouli, Rose, Orange Blossom*, Cumin, Geranium, Davana, Saffron, Anise, Coriander
  • Base Notes: Benzoin, Labdanum, Amber, Ambergris, Frankincense, Opoponax, Vanilla, Birch, Musks, Oud
*Except for you know who - I'm starting to think orange blossom has displaced sandalwood as my new mortal enemy.

So I got my 2 ml of this for more than I would have like to have spent on 2mls.

But whoever was throwing in the additional joints into my package, tossed in an official 2ml of Outlands from Amouage.

And then I put my nose on it

:stopitslime:

The retail on this is crazy.
The discount on this is still north of $400 bucks

Um, no thank you.

I'm up 2 mls on top of what I copped, and this joint is dabber status. Not quite scrubber, but not my tastes at all. But I might have to throw some rubbing alcohol and cocoa butter, cause Amouage makes stuff SKRONG for the home market.

TF - Bois Pacifique


Spicy? Check
Woody? Check
Powdery? Check

Pleasant and but not powerful.

It reminds me of the OG Givenchy Gentleman in it's very affable nature.

Near Perfect Office Scent. Could easily be worn year round...

Thus not very interesting. This is a refined Burberry Hero EDP in some respects, shaving off the sharp cedar notes.

I like it though. If I didn't already have an ocean of cologne, this would be a solid 10mls. But since I do, it's 2mls.

Will wear and enjoy again, but not going out of my way for this if it were to get discontinued.
