Serge Lutens Iris Silver Mist. Cold, haunting, unsympathetic. Not an everyday wear...

Wear whatever you like. I spend much much more on my scents than I would ever spend on a soap and much more than I would spend on a razor...

Ensar Oud Aroya Kyaku. From a sample. Smoke and incense. No barn, no ocean, no fruit.

Sultan Pasha's Jardin de Borneo Gardenia. Like a walk in the park, a contrast to the grey Christmas skies.

Sultan Pasha's Irisoir. A very nice iris, sweetened with a delicious peach. Creamy after the first hour. My take is that this is not for public consumption, but for private wearing at home. ...

Sultan Pasha's Nankun Kodo. Great scent. Sweet incense, mint, clove, cinnamon, woods. Makes sitting here in the empty office pleasant.

Revisiting Sultan Pasha's Ambrecuir. Last trial was Oct/17.
A dark library leather. No florals. Thick rich leather, amber, and chocolate. My previous notes said it turns nicely musky about four...

Gucci Guilty Absolute. Second wearing from a sample. Ok leather, but not full bottle worthy.

Second sampling of Sultan Pasha's Le Rayon Vert. Very sharp, bright green scent. I get strong jasmine, and geranium. Note list on basenotes is huge; I'm proud I could identify these two on my own......

Second sampling of Nankun Kodo attar by Sultan Pasha. This is great stuff. A sweet spicy incense; clove, cinnamon, anise, woods, a minty Oud, and (I've read) Hinoki incense. I'm really liking this.

Sampling Sultan Pasha's Aurum d'Angkhor. Very nice attar. Very very expensive. Probably worth it, but way out of my league. But that's what sampling is for...

Ame Sombre by Sultan Pasha. Third wearing from a sample. Nice, but I like some of his others above this.

Encens Chypre by Sultan Pasha. Second wearing from a sample. Very nice attar. Arm's distance projection 6+ hours in, from less than a drop smeared on my wrist. I think I still prefer his Pure...

First wearing of Yohji Homme. I'd probably like it better if I'd used one more spray. Nice enough, but I prefer the darker scents.

Sampling some Sultan Pasha attars. Today, Encens Chypre on the left wrist, Thebes G1 on the right. Both are nice, but I prefer the Thebes...

I'm wearing a sample of Clive Christianson C. A very smooth Tuscan Leather. Nice, but I cannot imagine ever buying a bottle of this. Much too expensive. Glad to have tried it, but I'll stick with my...

I suppose so... I really do appreciate her, though I don't trust her nose.

L'Instant de Guerlain. My wife really dislikes this, so I can only wear it when I'm up and out of the house early before she gets up and notices...
