Giving you an impression of L’eau Rare Matale by Parfumerie Générale . A black tea based scent with a pinch of spices. Sadly this one was way too soft for my liking. I was hoping for T42 part 2, but it was not.

Giving you an impression of Aromatic Lime by Montale . On my search to find a GREAT lime based scent, I decided to sniff this one from Montale. Sadly this one has a great lime note (on it’s own) but the mesh with the saffron and other notes made the dry down a little too powdery,soapy and barbershop like to really wear in the high heat.

I take a sniff of Hugo by Hugo Boss . A top selling fragrance all over the world, I’m taking my role as Me Vs The World approach in this review since I always felt that this one was artificial smelling and never wow’d me.

I take a sniff of Midnight In Paris (EDP) by Van Cleef & Arpels . A fragrance that really put VC&A on the map in our community. An excellent blend of notes and found at great prices online.

Giving you an impression of L’eau du Circé by Parfumerie Générale . A fruity floral in the women’s game that failed to impress even for the woman in your life. Sadly from such a great brand I cannot vouch for this fragrance. It’s good but is worth the money ?? No, IMO.
