With the exception of Absolu, I've kinda lost interest in the Bottled line, The Scent line however I think is worth some exploration. Starting with the original edt. A 2015 Spicey aeomatic release created by Bruno Jovanovic and Pascal Gaurin. The use of Maninka fruit from South Africa, an ingredient exclusive to the brand at the time, which smells like a mix of passion fruit and rum. It opens with a bright and energetic burst: the zesty freshness of citrus blends with the sharp, warm spiciness of ginger, creating an immediate and inviting impression that feels both lively and refined. As it develops, the unique Maninka fruit an exotic ingredient exclusive to this fragrance adds a soft, sweet, and slightly tropical depth. It is balanced by the clean, aromatic calmness of lavender, forming a sensual heart that bridges freshness & warmth. The scent settles into a grounding base: smooth leather brings a touch of masculine elegance and intensity, while woody notes add warmth and structure. This finish gives the fragrance a memorable, magnetic quality that lingers softly. Performance aint too bad, I get 5 to 6 hours on skin & clothes. Projection is moderate. Its definitly better suited to the colder months and can easily see you right for both casual day wear or for a more formal evening wear. Its versatile like that. My Rating 7/10 Scent 2.5 Longevity 2 Sillage 1.5 Y/N 1

In Love With Everything by Imaginary Authors is a fragrance for women and men. The fragrance features Punch, Palm Sugar, Raspberry, Citruses and Sandalwood. WHEN TO WEAR THIS FRAGRANCE:This extremely versatile (and genderless!) fragrance is great for any time of day and any time of year but the blast of energy it possesses is ideal for whenever you’re feeling low or looking for a little boost of bliss to keep your body moving and your lungs laughing long into the night.

Ralph’s Club is one of those rare fragrances that instantly makes me feel like I’ve got my life together the moment I spray it on. It opens with a crisp, fresh burst of lavender and clary sage that feels clean and confident, then smoothly transitions into a warm, woody heart of vetiver and cedar that’s both masculine and approachable. The dry-down settles into a soft, creamy base of suede and musk that lingers gently for hours without ever becoming heavy. It’s my go-to signature scent for everything from date nights to important meetings because it strikes that perfect balance between sophisticated and effortlessly likable.

Historically, good Friday was not always good for some, not me though Thanks to the girls @tpstallaght I'm having a great Friday

Another warm weather hit for the day, so I'm feeling a bit spicy about it! I'm a big admirer of Heritage houses of all kinds, especially ones that are still family owned for 100's of years. Floris is still family owned for almost 300yrs!! That is so mind boggling to me! This is one of their signature mens scents. It is a very aromatic scent, very spicy and citrusy. Not much wood on the opening, but as it drawdown it starts to become more noticeable. Not overpowering in anyway, but mixes well with the bergamot and Grapefruit!! Kicking off the easter weekend with this wonderful scent! Have a great day everyone!!
