I haven’t. Just looked it up and would consider buying it blind just for the bottle lol. I love the simplicity of its notes. Sounds delicious. Definitely going to order a sample to try. Thanks for the recommendation!

Have you tried this before? https://basenotes.com/fragrances/chergui-by-serge-lutens.26122261 1713658315 Tom Ford’s Amber Absolute is another good one. A woodsy, amber, incense fragrance. I can’t recall if it has any musk to it though.

@Dostoevsky Parfums dusita is usually pretty great, and this scent is definitely handcrafted with the finest ingredients, but that comes with the price of a first hour where the natural oud smells just like natural oud should. And when you add high quality musk and civet :lol2: An hour of...

:tup: You can get samples for around $5 on luckyscent, to try it out and see if it works for you before springing for a full bottle.

MDCI Invasion Barbare I believe. MDCI has the resin busts as an option for bottle tops, but the price difference to get the bust instead of a normal top is obscene.

I have a couple fragrances I love that I cannot use as sprays, because even a single spray makes me feel like I’m swamping an entire room in scent. Have to spray it on a tissue than dab that on the skin to keep the sillage down. Or remove the spray top entirely and apply with a wand. Lol...

There are quite a few of them. You just need to find something that wears close to skin, doesn’t have a lot of sillage. The high alcohol content of most EDT/EDP sprays often makes for huge sillage, especially initially. Usually parfum extraits are better for this because of lower alcohol...

I have a sample of it, along with about 20 others in the Serge Lutens lines. Haven't actually gotten around to trying this out yet... Is it a good one? My favourites from SL so far are De Profundis and Mandarine Mandarin - - - Updated - - - Fumurie Turque is great, you're right. Love the...

You know this one? Isn't it amazing? Tobacco, ginger, cinnamon...and that damn subtle honey. I love it. So soft and restrained. I really hate fragrances with high sillage and projection, much bigger fan of close to skin stuff that someone basically has to be having a close/intimate conversation...

@DutchJuventino I finally smelled Phaedon's Tabac Rouge today. Holy shit, that's amazing. And super reasonably priced as well. I'm excited. Definitely going to buy a bottle. I think this is the best tobacco scent I've come across so far. Much better than Tom Ford's Tabac Vanille, and far less...

:tup: I think appreciation for the niche fragrance market starts and ends with you and I here on 'tuz. At least we're inspiring a few good laughs :D

I have the perfect fragrance for you. Invasion Barbare by MDCI. :D - - - Updated - - - You no like smell good? :P

:lol: - - - Updated - - - I like weird artsy movies, strange books, art galleries, records, wine collecting, fragrances, fashion, tea, gardening, surfing, climbing, yoga... and working in a traditional, old-fashioned trade like timber framing. I'm pretty sure my time on this forum has made...

Best on my skin seems to be Invasion Barbare by MDCI, for everyday wear. I love that company. Most of what they do seems to be great. They have 5-6 female scents that are just incredible. Histoire De Parfums has a similar scent to IB called 1725 that is a slightly drier version, with little more...
