interesting to see how much "Iso E Super" is used in some fragrances.

If you like the smell of Weed, as I'm guessing you do based on Kinski, then try Kilian-Smoke for the Soul.

hey mate did you know GUIDI - BLACK? awesome!

What are peoples thoughts on Aventus ?

[the breaks]

ok scent but way too strong for me, i could literally still smell it after 2 showers (after not even applying too much)

Personally I think it's insipid, over hyped and rated garbage, propped up by the Creed "name". It's essentially synthetic calone, with an underpinned rectified birch tar, with some synthetic fruity top notes. Nothing more than a glorified sport fragrance in my opinion. At those prices you'd want something with some substance and longevity, which this is sadly lacking in both departments.

Ah what would you recommend for a similar fruity note with longevity?

To be honest, I'm not a fan of "fruity" fragrances per say. Lets see, Guerlain- L'instant de Guerlain Extreme, is a very clever fragrance which manages to seamlessly blend citrus and cocoa, with a warm resinous base, on a bed of sandalwood.

Divine- L'homme Sage has a very appealing mandarin/lychee opening, blended with saffron.

Best of the bunch would be MDCI- Invasion Barbare, a very refined Fougere, which has grapefruit top note, along with a rich vanilla/musk base. Difficult to fully describe, but worth sampling.

i haven't, but have been considering it

have you been doing anything with it that would be worth sharing?

[Verdandi]

I assume L'Incendiaire comes in a splash bottle without a sprayer?

Apologies for the late reply Dane. No, it comes with a sprayer just like the Export or whatever they call them now) bottles. I haven't been brave enough to spray yet, but then again: 50 ml is hell lot of perfume.
