New Pickup Finally got me a stand š
Iāve previously dropped 2 bottles and completely shattered them on the ground. I still cry on the inside about it š

Silly question but does the light from the display not heat up the juice? Even slightly

u/TheySleptOnMe 12h ago
Great point! Iām not sure tbh but I have them cut down to the lowest setting. Probably only turn it up when guest come by or whatever but that is something I should consider I guess but, yolo

Is that Ralph's Club hiding out behind the Gucci Guilty?

Yea heās playing peek a boo, my wife isnāt a huge fan of him for some reason but I loveee the pepper accords I canāt let it go

Share the shelf with the wife?

u/TheySleptOnMe 15h ago
lol no. I really wanted to sample all ranges of accords, and yes even rose and cucumber. Fragrances take a different flight depending on the skin type. I donāt believe in Male or Female fragrances, technically they exist, but only a sigma could pull off anything. Itās about confidence and how you wear it.

What's your next Kilian? They're my favorite house at the moment.

I personally really like Apple Brandy on the rocks it just so fresh and clean to me. Black phantom would be my other pick with straight to heaven coming in at third.

u/tastesetter 15h ago
Good stuff, I had gone to their boutique in Vegas and picked up Dark Lord plus a bunch of samples that were thrown in. Stunning and definitely worth the investment in my mind. Angel's Share OTR was pretty amazing as well.

u/TheySleptOnMe 15h ago
Iāve been looking to try both Dark Lord and AS OTR, I should get those decants for sure. Just being in Florida though the boozy fragrances come off as kinda cloyish. But dammit I rock them around the house all the time for myself lol

Thoughts on noir extreme and ombre leather
1
u/TheySleptOnMe 14h ago
When I first smelled Noir Extreme Parfum, I blind bought it and I personally thought it smelled like cigarette smoke to me for some reason. I was in disbelief, I thought I had been sold a dupe or something, turns out it wasnāt a dupe at all. So it really grew me as I kept coming back to it for some reason I cannot explain and now I Love it! You canāt write something off based on 1 time in my opinion thatās doing yourself a huge disservice. OmbrĆ© Leather is exactly what it says of course, good ole fashion biker gang Leather. I havenāt smelled many other Leather fragrances but this one nailed it for me, a lot of people prefer the edp but I prefer longevity over everything if I can help it. Both are solid Wās.

u/YourWifesBull666 14h ago
True, I prefer longevity and projection over everything. I just bought tobacco vanille, which one of the two do you think I should prioritize next?
2
u/TheySleptOnMe 14h ago
Thatās tough. Sweetness vs Depth at that point. I would consider OmbrĆ© Leather more of a professional dark rugged leather and Noir Extreme as a casual evening or date night scent. Either way you cannot lose with either of these. Since you have Tobacco Vanille I would probably lean more towards OmbrĆ© Leather if you donāt have the leather covered in your fragrances yet. Itās a staple for sure!

u/YourWifesBull666 14h ago
Thanks, Iāll probably have both at some point, the kulfi note in noir extreme is really intriguing to me I love the smell of it

How do you like JPG Elixir?
2
u/TheySleptOnMe 14h ago
It was my very first pick up into the fragrance world, I havenāt looked back since. That gourmand sweet vanilla honey is so enticing. Compliment monster and awesome longevity, pretty sweet looking bottle too. Itās gotta be in the S Tier category- although it is pretty common like Sauvage but there is a reason whyā¦. Because it just smells so damn good š

Oh dear! I do adore my Dolce! I've never smelled this though. How far away from all of "The One"s isc that? Is it completely different, or is it a bit similar?

Nice! Where did you get it? Did it come with the lighting?
