Haha, I love the way you described Leather Oud. Yeah, both Leather Oud and Kouros share the same animalic honey civet notes. It's also the same you find in APlS by MFK. It's a shame that Kouros today is just a toned down/cleaned up version of its former self. Didn't try Oud Ispahan because I'm not really a fan of the French/western oud scents. I have a tiny decant of Cambodian oud oil given by Joey, which I find it pleasantly balmy. They say this is the most pleasant. Indian oud is the most challenging.

I love to browse in Kinokuniya. They have wider choice than MPH and Borders that I've been to.

In 2014, it expanded beyond amber and into other resins particularly incense, frankincense, myrrh and oppononax. I guess some of you may know that 2014 had been a Tauer year for me together with Churchy incense. That same year also marked the beginning of animalic year that was to come with purchases of Labdanum 18 by Le Labo and Musc Ravageur by Frederic Malle.

Thanks for the heads up bro.

Winston Churchill rocked Blenheim Bouquet.

I tried it. A nice citrusy scent but fleeting unless for someone who doesn't mind re-applying.

Which Amouage are you gonna blind buy?

I would go for Jubilation. Which one do you prefer more?

Ahh, sweet, been looking for skin-scent fragrances for men for quite some time now ..
Any good and affordable recommendations fellow fragheads ?
Been wondering why some women can have their fragance on for so long, found the phrase i've been looking for .. skin-scent yup 

May i know where u gotten the Afnan Supremacy Silver ?  I would want to check it out.

Not a house I'm familiar with. Is it sold at KLIA?

Any idea where to try the Afnan Supremacy Silver? 

Ic.. Thanks for the info.Geezz.. I wound't be travelling to Kl few month.. Too bad.

Do share your review on the scent you explore with all of us 

One of them I tried smelled like 24 Gold but not sure if it was Kalemat though.

SOTD - Interlude by Amouage
Smokey BBQ amber. Easy on the trigger. It's very potent. Mine is a tester without fancy cap and retail box.

Yup, its quite a gd offering but i was trying to get my hands on back-up bottle of Eau des Baux which is my fav fr L'occitane.

Haven't heard of EIGHT & BOB. Have only tried Tardes by Carner Barcelona - Almond, tonka bean and musk, which is one of their popular ones along with Cuirs and D600. Ambra Aurea by Profumum Roma is one of the better amber scents they say. You might be interested to try their Olibanum, which is frankincense.

Boss, how do you find the Neroli's smell? How does it compare to Bergamot?
Still can't find Neroli in shops.

If "fecal" doesn't smell offensive but pleasant to you then I must say your taste of fragrances are on par with the Europeans or French in particular

Can't open the link. Is it a link to your email attachment?

Thanks for the feedback. You do have a great sense of smell as I only sensed the slight bitterness as compared to the Bergamot, everything else is the same. Tested from the box samples they have counters.

SOTD - Lonestar Memories by Tauer Perfumes
It truly is an ode to birch tar. You have to love birch tar to love this one. The closest of what it smells like that I can think of is Ambra by Santa Maria Novella. Performance of Lonestar Memories is excellent. Wearing this makes me thinking of Cuir Cannage and Knize Ten of which I might be getting one of them next. I've concluded Salome by Papillon is not for me after much testing.
