Same brah. I sometimes wish I was so excited and happy about simple things that I can get so poetic about it lol haha
Yeah man I think yesterday I saw quite a normal ass post from you and had to do a double take. Good job lol.
I can agree there's a certain amount of poetic you can get without sounding absurd but it's still just scented water lol.
Let me put it this way....I think the reviewer above could have painted a much better picture to the reader of what this smells like in a short concise paragraph. By trying to get so specific with these fancy ass visualizations, it just makes things way more confusing.

Scent of the Evening: Prissana - Thichila
An oily affair, not entirely unlike the soothing head massage given by a hair artist from supercuts using luxurious paul mitchell tea tree products. Just under the oily top, are a host of lush spices that one could fall in comfortably like a bed... nigh, a mother's bosom. If the drydown wasn't but a faint whisper of oud i might deem this conception too much... but alas it resonates soul.
nah, purchased something from him months ago and he just went through the chat history and shipped it to that address again without asking me. It was my old bachelor loft i recently moved out of. Will have to stop over there tomorrow and pick it up.DCA'ing FXS since Sept2022

Nice. You should be able to find at least one you like. And yes, trading/selling is permitted.
very warm?? Where you at brah? 'Stralia? or Cali?
dayum.. strong entry. Regarding the highlighted, take your time brah. Enjoy what you have already and sloowly acquire more if needed. More choices is not always a good thing.
They are somewhat similar, i think VUI is a bit more vanilla focused and doesnt have as much Iris. i prefer DHI, but may be in the minority

SOTD: Thameen Cardved Oud.
Anybody else try this stuff? This stuff is spot on with TF Oud wood. It and TF Oud Wood are twin brothers who have their just so slight unique quirks about them. Still trying to figure out which I like best. Carved Oud seems not as abrasive. More creamier. Definitely not picking up on any musk that the notes list.
Oud Wood Notes
Oud, Chinese pepper, pink pepper, cardamom, birch tar, cistus, incense, sandalwood, vetiver, patchouli, cedarwood Atlas, vanilla, tonka bean
Carved Oud Notes
Oud, cedar, gaiac, patchouli, musk
I think it would do just find in warm days...assuming you are indoors and not outside at some outdoor event. I had a female friend tell me the I smelled "Fresh" when she smelled TF Oud wood on me.
I am a Roja lover, but I just don't like Midsummer one bit. I hate powder fragrances and this stuff is super powdery. All I get from it is baby powder. Take a bottle of baby powder and turn it into liquid and there you have Roja's A Midsummer Dream. I am sure there's more to it and I am sure others pick up other notes, but there's just too much baby powder in it for me to pick up on anything else. I still have 9 ml of my 10ml decant of it I've been thinking about tossing.

Sampled: silk mood, grand soir, br540, aqua vitae, oud, ciel de gum
Silk mood - meh. Get a ton of lavendar. Strong at first then dies down. was told i smell like baby powder so might as well just throw it away lmao.
grand soir- really like this. sophisticated, sexy. only issue is longevity (?)
br540 - love it but alexandrias clone is better longevity/projection wise. br540 is more well crafted and enjoyable though.
aqua vitae - fresh and aquatic not overdone. Might be too strong initally for a hot summer day? but then it dies down.
Oud- this is nice well blended but not quite memorable for me. Almost like the perfect base but just needs something to hit home.
ciel de gum - weird scent. Minus the plastiques note its pretty enjoyable
overall: These are all well crafted scents but they drop off a literal cliff after a few hours. projection goes out the window and longevity isnt quite where id like them to be but might be asking too much for some of them. Wish that wasnt the caseLast edited by Legacyx; 10-24-2019 at 08:53 AM.

It's a relationship
strong this. before people fall down frag enthusiasm, most people go a whole year off one MAYBE two scents. you've got some gems there. a date night in 540 extrait, a daily driver in elysium, and potentially a signature/occasion scent in enigma. they're all arguably the best in each catagory too. sit on those for a month or two and see what you really think of them.
I have a small 3ml decant of Carved Oud now. Really enjoy it, and to be quite honest with you, just about everything Thameen makes it worth a sniff. great stuff.
As for Midsummer's Dream, it's a love or hate fragrance. Most people associate summer fragrances with bright freshies. Midsummer is almost "warm" due to the slightly powdery nature. It's not old grandma powder smelling, but there is a powder character. If anyone wants to test what this character is like at a cheaper price point i would suggest giving Chanel Boy a sniff.
I'm the resident MFK Oud homer. Probably my favorite MFK creation. As for performance, I think they perform well. I don't like people smell me as i enter a room. That's beastmode designer projection and i don't like the "cologne guy" stereotype. MFKs, Rojas, and Thameen for that matter seem to have arms length projection. If you give someone a hug or are having a face to face chat they'll get sillage, and for me that is plenty.Last edited by W1LLW; 10-24-2019 at 08:58 AM.

Yah I think because I despise powdery scents, whenever my nose gets a whiff, it completely shuts down and doesn't pick up any other notes. I definitely don't get a "slight" powdery scent from Midsummer Dream. All I get is baby powder to the face. I took a break from it and I will go back to it in a few months and see if anything has changed.
Btw, where did you get that glorious Diaghilev decant?

100% you're having nose fatigue and for some reason your nose just turns off these particular scents after a while.
I have Grand Soir and the performance is stellar.
I have the BR540 original and clone. I go anosmic to these fairly easily, my nose would barely smell it and then I get wafts many hours later, or people would smell on me while I thought it had died out. I guarantee you the original has just as good longevity and projection as the clone. If not better.
Edit: just saw the last line of your post...something's wrong with you bruh lol. I'm really impressed with MFK performance in his frags. Some of the best in the game imo.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Grand Soir longevity? WTF? I have never experienced a frag with more beastly longevity. I get a few days with this stuff. Yes, a few days! And thats just on my skin. I got some on my jacket once I still smelled it on there several weeks later. Grand Soir is the bar when it comes to longevity.

Yeah they can all fuk off. Redolessence is tolerable but the only reviewer I actually like is Gents Scents. He's the only one who doesn't act like a snob.
Even Jeremy is struggling with his fragrance so I dont know why these douchebags are even trying. It's not even your perfume bruh, someone else is making it for you. Like what? If that's the case I'd rather buy from an actual perfume house thank you very much. Even miss Demi is hinting that she's going to release one as well, lol. I find her annoying too.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
