    Shame you didn’t spray it on, it always great to see you get your nose on it in a review! Lovely overview though, you can’t go wrong with Tom Ford.

      You are right, missed it this time. The following reviews are way longer and more involved. Didn’t have a huge amount to say about this one to be honest 😶

    Just found your channel! Great job, BDJ is definitely in my top 5 favorite fragrances of all time, thank you for the review. Do try Mousse Illuminee if you can find it - it's a shaving foam creamy oakmoss bomb that is just gorgeous!

    Just found your channel from another you UA-cam channel @CgScents. I really appreciate your no BS no hype reviews. Thank you. I’m always curious for recommended number of sprays and where to spray for a particular perfume. I never want to be “that guy” Thanks again.

    I don't mind the tiny sprayers because that way I can control the amount I spray. This is something I am thinking of getting. I am thinking of Beau de Jour, Terre d'Hermes EDT, and Eau Sauvage Parfum. I got Chanel Egoiste Platinum and seem to like this kind of scent.

      Have you worn all of these? If so, are they all good performers? From the reviews, they seem to be. That's important to me. I hate these scents that die after little time.

      @@ToleVerban I've worn the Tom Ford, the Hermes and the Dior. Longevity is good but not eternal, I would say around 6-7 hours. It also depends on how much you spray.

    Beau De Jour, Casamorati Fiero, Eau Sauvage Parfum, Sartorial are my gems. I don't mind redundancy in this style and constantly adding because I use it the most without thinking too much after a clean shave. I agree with the barbershop nostalgia as I used to get haircuts with scissors and razor blades and they applied powder and some cheap barbershop fougere smelling liquid which burned like hell when I was a kid.

      @ yes, try both, maybe the Extrait works for you and you’ll love it. For me personally, neither of those is bottle worthy.

      @@SeldomlyOften Don't know. I have the signature line (as a Bracken Man's lieutenant :), and I can buy the PB version - only 1 bottle left in my country. However, 50ml PB is twice the cost of 100ml SL... and I've never smelled it, so I'm trying to figure out from others whether it's worth it.

      @ I’ve seen some reviews in the past, I don’t think there is much difference. After all it’s the same perfume.
      Yeah MAYBE in an A/B comparison you might be able to tell them apart but I wouldn’t think that.
