Went with Invisible Monster from I Hate Perfume. Interesting aroma, I'd describe it as a floral but not flowery smell. More like a greenery, herby type. There are some undertones that I can't quite hit on yet. I'll be wearing it again to try and nail them down. Since many colognes have different aromas on different people it may not smell the same on you
Interesting attempt at capturing musty old pages and leather though don't you find Dave?Quote:

Yes, for sure on the musty old pages and leather, but not in a bad way.Quote:

That's one reason I need to wear them a few times to see if they are for me
Yesterday was Acqua Di Gio
Today, it's back to Pinaud Citrus Musk. I really am liking this for the summer. My shave this morning was with Stirling Grapefruit and Menthol Soap with their matching aftershave. The Citrus Musk works well to finish this off. Details and pic in "Shave of the Day".
Brut Attitude
Guerlain – Vetiver
Went with Invisible Monster again. This isn't too bad actually, an interesting aroma for sure
I'm going with this tomorrow, Doc. Love that fragrance - especially by the master Parisian house, Guerlain. I tried C.O. Bigolow's Critus and Vetiver Cologne last month. Two of my favorite scents. I was so excited to try it, but it is NOT for my body chemistry and nose. I am going to give it away by post here on SRP to a Noob. I'll even pay for shipping. It's a full bottle. I can't wear it. Darn shame. But hopefully it will find a new home.Quote:

I have not worn Brut since I was a late teen. I have to pick up a bottle. That and English Leather. I think I've got a handle on all the other classic drug store fragrances from the 50s-70s. I realize "Dominant" is no longer produced, but classic green bottle will hopefully bring back some memories of my High School daze. ;)Quote:
