Hmm..was just thinking in the shower. While I was in France for the Euro Cup, I bought Bois du Portugal. Guess who is in the Finals today?

France vs Portugal

Interesting. And I went to the France vs Ireland match in Lyon. What did I wear to that game? Naturally Green Irish Tweed. France won 2-1.

So while watching the Final today I will of course wear Bois du Portugal. Does this mean France will win again? No. But France will win again because they are deeper, loaded and playing in front of their home country.

Vive La France!

Very helpful. I stated that I like the Armaf version (CDNI) of Aventus better than Aventus itself. I mean that. I am very glad to hear you say that you like the Derby Club House Blanche better than SMW! I am fond of SMW and have high hopes for it. I am going to get some now that I hear you say this. Because I believe it.

I don't know if you've smelled Bois du Portugal, but man it smells good, and distinct. It is right up there with Aventus in my opinion. I would love to hear the comparison to the Derby Club House from Armaf.

I had gotten my CDNI from Lily Direct and it was like $32. It appears now that all their Armafs are selling for around $70. Any advice where to still get Armafs in the $30 range?

Hi, thanks!
This will likely not help you much, since I got the Armafs from a retailer in Germany, where I'm located - roughly around 30€ each.
PM me if you'd like the weblink nontheless.

EDIT: Lot of ~30$ sellers on US ebay!

Has anyone noticed strong similarities between karo karounde and copulins? Both have this overripe fruit thing going on. I need to be getting a full bottle of Timbuktu anyday now. Next paycheck will go towards a decant of Aventus (as reference for my own scent project), so that'll have to wait.

Amouage Lyric man! Recently got a decant.. Very pleasant rose scent!
