Hi guys, anyone tried Penhaligon or Miller Harris? Any recommendation for these perfume? My all time favourite is Amyris Homme by Maison Francis Kurkdjian. Thanks in advance.
*
Haven't tried that many Miller Harris scents but my favorite are L'Air de Rien and La Fumee but if you do a search on fragrantica (http://www.fragrantica.com/search), these are the top 5 order by popularity voted by Fragrantica users:-
(1) L`Air de Rien
(2) Fleur Oriental
(3) Feuilles de Tabac
(4) La Fumee Classic
(5) Noix de Tubereuse

For Penhaligon's, check out :-

It is said that Winston Churchhill and Prince William wore Blenheim Bouquet. Sartorial smells like bigger brother of Brut. Quercus smells like CK One. Not sure if those are your cup of tea. It's best to sample it yourself at the store.

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.

It's actually not that expensive after the huge 20% discount and cheaper shipping option that I got and yeah, the price is indeed on the higher end for an indie house but I wouldn't put it in the same level as Roja Dove or Clive Christian. April Aromatics is an indie house after all. That said, the higher price tag that you pay is for its all natural organic ingredients used in all of its fragrances. Tanja Bochnig (the perfumer and founder of April Aromatics), like Andy Tauer, would personally thank you and answer all your questions. The juice is infused with 24k gold flakes, which reminds me of Goldschlager.

SOTD - Calling All Angels by April Aromatics
Smell of pure incense and amber (labdanum, benzoin and vanilla). Rich, complex and smooth. Reminds me of Amber Absolute by Tom Ford. I bought it for spiritual reasons if you read about how this scent was composed.

Thanks bro! I'll be getting Salome by Papillon next after CNY only if I managed to raise enough fund by then and for that reason, I need to sell off some of my dormant bottles. I'll post them up on my WTS thread this weekends.

Congrats bro!!! rclxms.gif rclxms.gif
I can see here,We all have a diff appreciate approach on the fragrance.Is good that we can exchange the scent by doin decant..
Talk about 2016 New Year haul,My order 2015 reach me today! Nothing special, As my acquisition on existing brand that i own.
Hope to fill up the family portrait of my collection. smile.gif

Been argued and discuss by most of 'Ang-Mor'(Si-Mat salleh), Original santal sharing the similiar scent with 'Designer range' Mont Blanc Individuel.
I do not agree on this,And I love both scent. I was first explore Mont Blanc Individuel before stepping up into Creed creation,Hence i'm familiar with the scent.
Somehow is all about quality stuff with the money you paying. Original santal start off with a potent aroma of warm cinnamon follow closely with smooth Sandalwood.. As the scent are really remarkable. While the scent calm down, The creamy vanilla come out joining the party with Cinnamon,Sandalwood with the hint of fresh Juniper berry giving a twist on the scent.Giving it a fresh make over,And not overly sweet and cloying.. While dry-down was supported by Tonka-Bean(Easily detect),With some warm spice from Coriander,Rosemary & Ginger..
As the scent continue remain excellent on projection and longevity still there infact,is ady been 4hoursss...

I do find Original Santal and Individuel similar but it was based on a brief testing at the perfume counter. I think most just compare scents based on initial impression. Everyone is entitled to have their own opinions so there's no need to get yourself upset over it. If you love it, just wear it. Relax bro, TGIF!

My SOTD - Escape by CK
My first and signature scent in the late 90's. Testing Bohemian Spice by April Aromatics. Reminds me of Jeke by Slumberhouse with the dark patchouli.

Yeah, thanks! I took it at Damai Puri's beach when the Sun was setting to get the golden hue to match the color of the juice.

Memoir by Amouage is listed on StrawberryNet's Daily Special today but gone in just a few mins.

SOTD - Purple Reign by April Aromatics
Wearing sample of latest creation by this house. Reminds me a bit of Reverie au Jardin by Tauer Perfumes.
