What's Wow'd You Lately?

Amouage Fate Man (vintage), wears elegantly in Winter weather which quiets the cumin and immortelle notes.

Holy Oud by Maissa Parfums was yet another winner from this house.

Lately it's been Dandy Me by Paco Rabanne. I smell many more notes than listed (in rough order of strength to my nose, grapefruit, geranium, rose, sandalwood, vanilla, black currant, davana, iris, myrrh, oud).

It's beauty is in it's diaphanous texture. It captures the sort of magical aura that real Mysore sandalwood creates, and feels like all the other notes are the prismatic hues on the surface of this scent bubble.

Mancera - Tonka Cola
I was a bit nervous, with reviews being all over the place, but my gut told me this was something I'd love, and I do.
I very much get the gummy cola candy, the cherry, almost rum and coke vibe at one stage, but more than anything I get much more depth than expected. It's much more than a cola candy scent.

Oud Bourbon by Maissa Parfums was just wonderful.

 

[TheWiffMaster]

I was impressed with the bourbon and oak by cremo I recently bought. It's my first cremo fragrance and I find it good quality especially considering I got it for $12 the stuff projects well and last long and I get this vanilla note in the dry down I like. Great cool weather fragrance and ladies like it !

British Oud by Maissa Parfums is quite mesmerizing for me.

 

[DoctorM81]

First wearing of Floris 'A Rose For...' today. Wouldn't go as far as to call it a 'wow' (I'm not easily 'wowed'), but this is definitely a very nice, high quality fragrance. I'm impressed. Reminds me of something I can't quite put my finger on. It's not a million miles away from Cafe Rose by Tom Ford, but that's not it. Anyway, I'm enjoying it.

Wood Platinum by Maissa Parfums has exceeded my expectations.
