I also sniffed original Aramis yesterday. I find Antaeus and original Aramis have similar vibe to NRFH. I checked their notes breakdown and they all have patchouli and oak moss/musk. I think NRFH may be up your alley. What's your take on the scent of NRFH and original Aramis?

For me I retried these frags just now:
Aramis - no matter how many times, its dated... Eventhough I love givenchy.gentleman
NRFH - green patchouli bomb... Very green earthy.. Got the wet cement vibe... 100% masculine... will be unique lol...
Antaeus - opening is harsh green earthy animalic... Mid to drydown masculine floral where I get jasmin.. Those kind of jasmin tat we can sniff from our fellow indian friends here smile.gif quite well accepted in the indian community
Egoiste - quite linear, u get the creamy rose, vanilla n sweetness of sandalwood blend together smoothly, bit close to unisex...
Paphi - u get the fresh patchouli burst then slowly move towards incense smoky sweet powdery vanilla...

For me either paphi or egoiste

Came in the mail today from kelthuzad. Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum. Took PosLambat 3 working days to deliver. The scent is very dry. Just as how I remember it.

Astroboy22,
Thanks for the pure malt, pure havane, and musc ravageur..

I wasted no time to try the most hyped up one of them all, musc ravageur..

I smell a more complex and refined V&R Spicebomb... I think its the cinnamon which was very prominent... When it settles, then the vanilla kicks in... It remains musky throughout..

For its price, I think would rather get a Spicebomb for the same vibe.. Just my humble untrained opinion.. Peace out guys biggrin.gif

Hi Bro... You collected them then... smile.gif Most welcome...

I think what is smelled at the top is the burst of clove ... To any extend, it doesn't smell like Spice bomb on me though...hhhmmm, weird hmm.gif After the top... i do get vanilla all the way though. On me, Spice Bomb resembled A little tobacco vanille... but not a slightest bit of Musc Ravageur... Anyway, i hope you enjoy your fragrances biggrin.gif

Oh really? Then I have to wear it few more times, get to know it.. Haha.. biggrin.gif

I felt both of them have the same spice vibe, either the clove or cinnamon.. Spicebomb has this sharper spice, while MR is slightly more balmy..

Looking forward to getting more decants from U..

Cheers..

yup,the black bottle.i think the 007 perfume copied this bottle.i got a sample of extreme intense,very nice too,more fruitier but of dry fruits,dry orange kinda scent,and a bit of honey.like a modern version of Habit Rouge,but i think can be worn by guys 25 and above,not as balmy and dry as the parfum version.its like Terre D'Hermes mix with Habit Rouge or maybe rive gauche

Bro, sorry to see you giving it up. If I were you I'd get the least financially reachable one with the RM200 voucher.

I don't remember seeing ESE at the airport duty free. Would like to sample it too. SA at my local Parkson Dior counter told me they had it for sale sometimes ago but took it down due to poor sale.

SOTD - Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum

Starts off harsh and strong but becomes closer to skin pretty fast on my skin. I sprayed 1/3 from my 5ml decant before 9 this morning. As of right now, my colleague can only detect it a foot away.
