Scent/Fragrance of the Day - 2012

TOBS Shaving Shop

Accords: Woody, Herbal, Citrus, Animalic, Fresh Spicy, Earthy

Top: Bergamot, Artemisia, Cumin, Lemon, Grapefruit
Middle: Patchouli, Jasmin, Pine, Sandal, Cyclamen, Carnation
Base: Leather, Tobacco, Moss, Amber, Olibanum

Figured this was the safest spot to slip this one in; I just wore Immortal Mine yesterday, I am starting another batch of vintage frags tomorrow (first up Puig Sybaris) and most importantly I have no plans on leaving the house today.

Quorum opens with blast of citrus and spices from the '80s, but this assortment of notes start dropping off one-by-one in the drydown until all that is left after the first hour is perspirant. Like after a hard workout you don't shower, but allow your sweat to dry and streaks of salt accumulate on your body. This from indoors with the air conditioner running. Quorum lasts maybe 2 hours on my skin.

PDN L'eau Mixte

Piper Nigrum today.

Top: Lemon, Mandarin, Green Notes, Basil, Cumin, Aldehyde
Middle: Jasmin, Juniper, Cinnamon, Sandal, Carnation, Geranium, Artemisia
Base: Moss, Amber, Olibanum, Patchouli, Vetiver, Leather

Starts out as an 80's powerhouse, after 6-8 hours this frag has become a patchouli litter box and finishes as a feminine powderhouse. Yes, Puig Sybaris eventualy turns into a powderhouse on my skin (amber, olibanum). Nothing to like here, I despise all three phases of Sybaris.

The combination of cedar and sandalwood in this is reminding me a lot of Tam Dao this morning.
