My first love at first sniff was Naxos by Xerjoff-they know how to hook you in the store. My top 3 love at first sniffs would include Un Air d’Apogee by Maison Violet, old Shalimar by Guerlain, and Unknown Pleasures by Kerosene
“Angel’s Share” is a term distillers use to describe the evaporation that occurs in the barrel during the aging process. To my nose the drydown in Angel’s Share is the same as PdM’s Oajan. Both have their own unique openings, and I really enjoy both, but $/ml is usually cheaper with PdM. Both fragrances are very similar to Ambre Narguile by Hermes which is inspired by the fruity smells of shisha in Hookah smoking.
I would suggest you zoom way in to film-you feel too far away as do the fragrances (actually got much better 10 minutes in.) And don’t bother spraying as we can’t see much & instead I just saw dollars flying out of the atomizer😂 I own & love Santal Astral & Starlight. Musk Therapy is so well loved by the masses & a surprising compliment getter but it’s not a love for me. I only need my 10 ml decant & same with Angels Share.
My first love has to do with that it made sense to me. I'll explain. Many times a salesperson or content provider would say this is supposed to smell like this, or that, etc. So, without further ado, Serge Lutens fille en aiguilles. I understood the composition and what it was supposed to represent. It made me feel like I understood, thus that I belonged. I was now part of a community. I was no longer on the outside thinking that I couldn't comprehend. To be more specific. A sales rep would say, " You can smell the deep woods in this one". I thought, "Man I don't smell no damn woods at all". Uncle Serges' work opened a door that had been locked. BTW, I adore patchouli also. I also love sandalwood and yes I am a dark woods fan too. Subbed and belled ya.
