A while ago I bought a 30ml of Sauvage EDT because I wanted to see how I liked it. I love it with the added plus that today my daughter walked past me and said I need to wear this one more often. I know it gets overly hated on but it smells really good. I’m looking to see if I can find something smaller than a 100ml. I have too many 100ml’s at this point. I hope the brother’s smelled good today.

I present to you the very humble beginnings of my collection. I started my journey in January, and through ordering many, many sample decants, spraying testers in stores, and watching way too much content, I’ve learned what I’m really looking for and what I like best. This began with the Explorer and Dylan Blue, as “starter” fragrances that I liked very early on. I found they were pleasing and easy to wear anywhere, and really got me used to wearing a scent every day. Bonus that my wife compliments them both all the time. They are still very reliable workhorses. My wife really expressed her love for the Light Blue eau intense, and it was very lucky to order one at $60 the week before it was announced to be discontinued and they shot up to $90. This will be my scent of the summer until I get Paradise Garden. The latest addition is Polo 67 EDT that I plan to use for work, mostly. I enjoy how classy it feels while still feeling fun and refreshing. They really did a good job with this line. Any suggestions for what I should add down the line?

Happy Saturday to all in the brotherhood. I am trying to fully enjoy all my lighter fragrance while it’s still warm in Chicago. Today I chose this fantastic layering as you know Vibrato is Bright and Zesty in the opening and settles into this rich musky woody earthy base. I added more musk and florals for more body in the dry down and boy I’m not disappointed! Enjoy the rest of your day.

I stopped by my local LV shop today to pick up my engraved L’Immensité and while I was waiting I sniffed around. I love how Afternoon Swim smells but hate the longevity. I was smelling it and then decided to go over to Ombré Nomad and Les Sables Roses and I think I’ve found my next pickup. I sprayed some on my hand and love it. I was going to pickup Afternoon Swim next and just hold it till next summer or wear it on warm autumn days but now I think I might want roses. Has anyone else had experience with Les Sables Roses? I like it but value the brother’s input.

I recently picked up Vibrato after smelling and testing it. I bought it from Jomashop so I know it’s legit but it’s longevity on my skin is 🗑️. I don’t remember that being a problem when I tested it. What should I do?
