I love Oud Wood by Tom Ford but am also quite intrigue by Tuscan Leather and Vanilla Tobacco, both of which I managed to get sample bottles of when I purchase my Oud Wood.

My question if there are any good scents with strong projection from TF line of perfumes? I am looking for a scent more suitable for our humid weather as I believe that Tuscan Leather is more of a cold weather scent.

Nah mate.

TF are quite horrible with their current lineup. They reformulate their lineup so often, the projection and performance is so sad nowadays.

Barely can get 3 hours outta Oud Wood even with 4 to 5 sprays.

If you like Oud Wood / Tuscan Leather kinda scent, LV Noeveau Monde is a better option in my opinion.

As for weather, if you want to be safe, can always opt for safer sweeter scents if you don't want to offend people. But I'd say wear what you like instead of letting the weather dictate what you can wear.

My batch of Oud Wood is also the same. At 4 hours mark, it already faded to a skin scent but it last the whole day on me though.

Thanks. I will check out Noeveau Monde.

Thanks, bro.

That’s teak dial. It’s a 2nd generation Aqua Terra with the 8500 movement. Now Omega is at 4th generation Aqua Terra with horizontal lines but I still prefer the previous Gen dial pattern.

Tapisserie dial is only found on the Royal Oak and Royal Oak Offshore. I actually prefer the teak pattern than the tapisserie on my Offshore Diver.

But my all time favorite is still the second generation wave dial found on my Seamaster GMT Bond.
