Tenaz - Daniel de Fasson

Phileas

Probably and arguably Nina Ricci's best masculine offering IMO.

Loewe pour Homme by Loewe (1978)
(In my world this is a freshie. Lavender, citrus and plenty of oakmoss. It's supported by basil and sandalwood and some other stuff but the main focus is the three notes I listed first. A summer scent that also works in the other seasons.
Even though there is a noticable color difference between these two bottles they smell and perform exactly the same. I understand that some folks have bottles of this with a green tint! Weird!)

This is the only mini bottled fragrance I finished and full stopped, but still come back to consider full bottle worthiness. Are newer versions acceptable?

Santal by Roger and Gallet from a mini I got in the mail today. I'm on a sandalwood kick lately I think!
Hoping your day is great.

Tenaz - Daniel de Fasson

These days, if I don’t write down my thoughts somewhere searchable, I may as well never have had them.

I’ll wear Tenaz again soon and let you know.

Sing it, sister. I keep running across samples that I've given star ratings to and thinking "Whuuut?"

For me, mine smells almost exactly like Yves Saint Laurent Pour Homme.
