I always heard about Rose/Oud combos but I never tried one before yesterday. I smelled and picked up a sample of Rose D'Arabie, joint is fire.  Any other Rose/Oud scents I need to try?

Way too many!

Upper Echelon 

Roja Dove U.A.E. 

Maison Francis Kurdjian - Oud Silk Mood

Frederic Malle - Portrait of a Lady

Tom Ford - Noir de Noir (vintage)

Middle of the road

By Kilian - Cruel Intentions

Tom Ford - Noir de Noir

Xerjoff - More Than Words

Dior - Oud Ispahan

Diptyque - Oud Palao

Guerlain - Santal Royal

Tom Ford - Cafe Rose

Montale - Black Aoud

Decent

Juliette Has a Gun - Mignight Oud

I'm leaving out another good 10-15 I've tried that are worth mentioning, but that's just a few out of a 100 on the market right now. And solely "oud/rose" is hard to come by, there's so many variations and combos oud/rose/saffron, oud/rose/tobacco, oud/rose/patchouli, etc..

Friday night I went to this Caribbean rave

Bro this I must experience.

I'm not sure if there's any large amount of Caribbean people in the bay area. But try to find the most popular venue that they go to that plays dancehall, reggae, and soca...you will not be disappointed.

I know you be travelling, New York and Miami Carnival are coming up later this year.


Edit: San Fran will be having one on May 28th it seems

Yup I'm at SF carnival every year. 

Definitely a couple of west indian clubs and lounges I frequent too.

But I already know Miami is probably on a whole different level compared to anything in the Bay.

Thanks for this, a lot of these might be difficult to but I'll be on the lookout for cheap decants and whatnot. I smelled Oud Silk and Oud Satin the same day I smelled the Rose D'Arabie, they were both nice but I liked the Rose D'Arabie a little better.

Received my aventus s/o dfunk. On first impression the decant I had years ago smelled the same still don't get the hype. However I'll do a wear test & see how it performs on me.

Bought the Ysl " La nuit " & Versache pour homme for a total of 89.95 last night .. Now Fragrance.net have a 30% off instead of the 25% . Not that much of a big deal but still .

SPLIT: Olfactive Studio Still Life In Rio

View media item 1981656

This might be the last new one I do for a long while. Tryin to limit spending on new frags, and my summer lineup was already complete without this, but I got myself a decant and ended up orderin the bottle.

To me this is like a mix of Creed Virgin Island Water and Armani Prive Figuieur Eden. Not as sweet as VIW, and all around a real solid warm weather frag. Real nice.

Top notes are yuzu, ginger, lemon, mint and mandarin orange; middle notes are pepper, black and pink pepper and coconut milk; base notes are rum, copaiba balm and leather.

5ml = $12
10ml = $22


Still got aventus available as well, and some others. If u need anythin, pm me.

 

[Melo4deuce]

This nice weather out here called for Reflection Man. Fits perfectly with a warm day with a cool breeze.

 

[ronaldcinho]
