“Sometimes I do weird trials that mostly fail because I follow an intuition, a crazy idea. Rarely it works out nicely.”— Andy Tauer Most ideas will not work perfectly on the first try, and that is part of creating something worthwhile. Give your instincts room to speak, test the unusual path, and learn from every miss. The rare idea that works can make all the imperfect trials meaningful. Keep moving forward Enjoy the #Journey

Jumping straight in Valentino purple melancholia Cardamom, lavender, coconut and aberwoods. You can smell them individually, and it gives this warm fuzzy feel. A poor mans gris charnel. Decent 6-8 hr performance. Because I have gris charnel, I am passing on this one, but if you like that backbone, then definitely try it out. Top five Valentino for me. 8.3/10 Polo red edp extreme Leather, vanilla and ginger. First from the polo line on skin. Definitely has the DNA. Smells like a few frags were dissected and put back into something new. Not bad but simply not exciting. Again a decent 6-8 hr performance. If you really like the polo DNA and want something for winters then go ahead. 7/10 Montagne Port D’Azur Clone of my favourite summer frag of all time (yet) which is loumari porthole. I can’t decide if i like it as much as the OG. The iodine undertone is not there and i miss it very much. Its everything except that. But other than that its exactly the same for a 1/5th of the price. Better performance than the OG with 6 hrs. Need more wearings to decide which. 9/10

Had a chance to sample Creed Debonair , I’m must say I’m anticipating September 8th , For me it’s a must have and to my surprise I got 7.maybe 8 hours of performance, moderate projection for the first 2 hours , This may sound funny to you guys but when I was a kid my Dad would always have this Gum and these Mints in Purple Packaging, I believe they were called Violets , well to be honest it kind of reminds of that and brings me back to my childhood and the Good Times with my Dad , God Bless His Soul , but yeah Creed Debonair 👍🏾

Hey guys, Joe A. here with today's Scent of the Day : J-Scent Yuzu - Day 342.Parfumo lists it opening with lemon, thyme, bergamot, and orange, moving through yuzu, grapefruit, and lime, and settling into mandarin orange and rose.I know exactly what lane this is in, and I’m not mad at a sharp, tart, slightly herbal citrus that smells clean, awake, and like I made a good decision today.First Sniff: Like a citrus fragrance looked me dead in the eye and said, "Relax, Joe. I got this one."https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9UaiOb7L0QU
