SOTD - Valentino - Uomo Born in Roma - the original

Easy to see why nobody hypes this up. Came out in 2019 and to me, it smells dated.

Mineral Notes, Violet Leaf, Wood, Vetiver

It was just "okay" when I got it back then. The best thing Valentino has going are those bottles.

sotd argos perseus triumphant. basic, non offensive, well blended saffron oud.
smells distantly related to ombre nomad, but much more mild with some citrus and white musk twang on it. lasts long as a mf too

i cant lie. i got a couple of argos samples with this...one i didnt like at all (neptunes trident), the other ones i dont even remember

the more "imagination killer"s i come across, the more i want to get a bottle of the og

SOTD - Guerlain - Habit Rouge Spirit

It's supposed to smell like Hennessey - because it was made with Hen Dog barrels

*looks for bottle*
*compares*

It smells like an artistic interpretation of Hennessey where the alcohol has been burned off.

Low key this should be more popular in the fragrance community, but it's not nearly as popular as other Guerlain joints.

It's fine. If you like cognac joints, it's very oak-y. Not really my steez though.

2mls or 5mls if you're down with Hennessey
I’m on the verge of getting the regular Habit Rouge Parfum

SOTD - Scents of Wood - Plum in Cognac

Top Note: Rum Absoltu, Purple Plum, Cinnamon Bark

Heart Note: Peru Balsam, Osmanthus, Immortele

Base Note: Vetiver, Vanilla, Cistus

Scent - Super sweet, really good. I don't think it smells like plum or cognac, but whatever it is, it's popping.

Definitely put your nose on it. Solid 5mls, 10mls, possibly 100 mls
