Was thinking about Sweetie Aoud, Oceania, Amber Aoud or Danger.
Sweetie Aoud and Amber Aoud are great choices. I have an older bottle of Creation-E pure parfum and its wonderful, maybe the best I've tried from him except for Kingdom of Saudi Arabia which I sold off a while ago, but it was in my top 3 for sure.

Thats a great house to try out, Nightclubbing and Dans Paris being my favorites that I've tried.
I tried wearing Dans Paris in the daytime, and nighttime. I would avoid daytime, it smells feminine, when i wear it at night, it feels more sexy and less like a regular feminine sweet scent. Maybe sounds weird but i think this is made for the nighttime, and cold air.

I'm feeling pretty curious about vintage Coty - I haven't really scoped out the marketplace so I'm not sure how much I'll find that's within my price range.

Also I have some Osmofolia and Deconstructing Eden samples to try - I have a bad habit of swinging between curiosity about indies and curiosity about perfume from a more historical standpoint, so I've been neglecting them a bit tbh. I really gotta get into them!

Rogue Perfumery. Just purchased a sample set of 15. Love the quality of the notes, so far.

I was searching up this brand, have you had a chance to explore it yet? Tutela's notes intrigues me the most.
I had resercherd it when it first appeared at Jovoy in Paris but dismissed it, when I found out that it was a Kuwaiti based house. However, I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts if you decide to explore it yourself.

Akro is probably my fav new house recently sampled, so I hope those who mentioned it have a similar reaction. Honestly, I'm looking forward to trying some of the scents from the house of Michael Malul since they have some already out there and are working with Ash from Gent Scents on Youtube.

I've ignored a lot of houses for a long time, in part to avoid falling down too many more rabbit holes. One I finally tried recently was Villoresi, with a blind buy of Sandalo; it was rough sledding on the first wear, but I've come to love it and look forward to exploring more. In that spirit I've had a bottle of Villoresi's Atman Xaman stuck in shipping limbo for about a month. Hopefully I'll get my hands on that soon.

Perhaps inspired by @Pheusinger's posts, I've also recently felt inspired to finally give D.S. & Durga the time of day. Early on I wrote them off due to price and market posture (i.e., hipster presentation) - I don't have anything against popular Brooklyn-based brands, but something about the branding made me think of "niche" houses like Byredo or Vilhelm, where the presentation is nice and what little I've tried feels tepid and painfully overpriced. Looking closer at DS&D, these don't look tepid at all, quite the opposite, and I'm really curious to try them. With that in mind... today I snapped up bottles of Bowmakers and Mississippi Medicine at a heavy discount... figures crossed they pan out!

2 great choices from DS&D!

Carefully researching Maison Douze in anticipation of purchasing all releases.
