SMN - Pot Pourri.
The reviews rave about warm spice and grassy notes. To me, it smells like my mom's ham and bean soup.

My wife thought I had on Vick's Vapor rub when I tried it. I'm wearing Eau Sauvage today.
Truefitt & Hill - West Indian Limes
Drizzly gray day here, riding the tube - err um train - to work. Felt like something English:
Pen's Hamman Bouquet
Although now that I'm in my office and remember that I have a potentially confrontational meeting this morning perhaps it should have been Yatagan or TF Tuscan Leather...

Oriscent's Kyara Koutan​ for me today.
La Collection Privée Christian Dior Vetiver
Top note: Sicilian Grapefruit
Heart note: South American Robusta Coffee
Base note: Haitian Vetiver
This is a really nice take on vetiver, but seems to be fading fast even after applying a double-dose. I get a sweet/floral on the opening, then the coffee/vetiver which doesn't change very much - it just gets smoother. I do like this coffee/vetiver combination much better than in Jo Malone Black Vetyver Café.

Creed Spice & Woods
This scent really aggravates me. First of all, why would you ever want a 250ml atomizer bottle?! Its awkward enough holding the 120ml bottles from Creed. Second, Spice & Woods is a little bit of a misnomer. Does it have spice? Kind of. Maybe a hint of clove in there but nothing to write home about. Does it have woods? Yes. In the dry down I get a nice touch of cedar and enough musk to not feel like I rolled around in a hamster cage. What aggravates me the most is how much I seem to be enjoying this scent. I really wanted to hate it. I wanted to scoff at it and say, "Oh Olivier, you pretentious a**. You can't slap the name Royal Exclusive on something and expect people to instantly fawn over it. This is crap!" I honestly can't stop smelling my wrist where I put a few drops. As I was driving to work I would catch the occasional whiff and couldn't help but think how much I liked it.
I guess the next step will be to empty the vial into an atomizer and spray it on to see how it wears. Maybe I won't care for it as much the second time around. My wallet (and wife) hopes so at least.

Trufitt & Hill West Indian Limes Cologne
Guerlain - Gentleman's Handkerchief (MdM) Thanks, Dave
So far, wow, just wow. It's like everything mixed into one--floral, clean, dirty, fresh, indollic. A tad "old manish" to me, but I'll take it. I really need to get the hang of David's atomizers lol.

Creed BdS (this is for me the longest lasting Creed scent, applied this am at 6:30 and i can still detect it on me now).
Came across this old 6 oz bottle of 4711 edc with about 1/3 remaining in it while rummaging around the house today. NICE.....
