    Tsar was the first fragrance I ever owned. My mom bought it for me when I was in the 7th grade. She was the one who started my love for fragrances. She passed away when I was 27 and 10 years later I still have a bottle of it in my collection because of her 🙏🏽

    Thankfully DUA Fragrance made a cop of that Midnight In Paris and I have 3 bottles of it. Speaking of DUA, they should definitely make a dupe of that Versace Man because it is the TRUTH!. Like Cuba said, it's been discontinued and I'm cherishing my bottle. I really really hate that I found out about that Persepolis Ambre fragrance too late :(

    A couple of grails to me are. The hockey puck as bvlgari black. Which I hear is similar to midnight in Paris. Also, brooks brothers, cologne called new York in a square blue bottle. And I have one that I do t really wear but I wanted it in my collection. It's floris 89. The profile reminded me of my grandfather and dad, who would never leave the house without a scent. Not sure if you know what Tres flores a old school hair product and after shave from the Mexican neighborhoods and thw og men in the guayabera and khaki's and stacy Adam's, shine to a mirror finish. When I bought the scent I let me 24 year old son smell it and he teared up, and said that smells like grandpa, my dad. And it's for that reaction is why I'll always keep it in my collection.
