    Tabac - Smells Like a Thrift Store or Mothballs & Roses?

    Thread Starter: Seattle

    Stopped by the Perfumania where they had Tabac Original for 50% off. Got a sample on my wrist, and 4 hours later I can't remove the smell. Looking for my can of Xylene to neutralize this stuff. To each his own, but to me, it smells like grandma's stale closet full of mothballs and expired rose...

    T&H Cologne.really?

    Thread Starter: dushea

    Got a sampler pack from T&H that had most of their colognes in it. I LOVE their scents, but even with 4 generous sprays from an atomizer, this stuff doesn't last more than an hour or two. It's not like this stuff is cheap either, $75 bucks for 100 mL - I don't know how they get repeat business...

    Higher-end suit discounts?

    Thread Starter: Corsair66

    The subject line says it all. I'm looking to add a higher-end OTR suit (I've got my eye on a new Kiton), but retail pricing doesn't represent any sort of practical reality. Not so much from the absolute cost perspective, but with respect to perceived value, at least for me. So, can anyone...

    Permanent mustache shadow.

    Thread Starter: romantichero

    Basically, I can get a BBS shave on my entire face, including my upper lip. However, a dark shadow of sorts always remains on my upper lip no matter how close I get. If I feel my mustache with my finger, it feels smooth in all directions unless I really press my finger into my skin and feel the...
