DEMETER BLACK BAMBOO

I will admit that I chose this one based on nothing more than the potential. Bamboo is a rather versatile and impressive tree and I was curious to see where this would go. Once more, DEMETER has managed to create a beautiful image in an instant with Black Bamboo. One spray and I am transportedRead more

One Way Ticket to Sweetsville with DEMETER

For the last few days I have been posting reviews of designer brand fragrances and I am thrilled to be jumping off that treadmill for a moment to tell you about some fragrances that are just plain and simple fun for the nose. It is very easy to get sucked into the Demeter FragranceRead more

GUESS DARE Homme – Modern Classic

This was a blind buy at my local pharmacy (Shopper’s/Pharmaprix) where they liquidate big brand fragrances for $20/bottle. I like the GUESS brand and had never explored any of their fragrances. Considering the price point and the few review highlights I took in while shopping, I figured this was worth a try. Presentation wise, thisRead more

Salvatore Ferragamo – A Subtil Discovery

I often impulse purchase fragrances at my local “Shoppers Drug Mart / Pharmaprix” (Eastern Canada). They have a small section where they liquidate brand name fragrances for a flat at $20 / bottle. When compared to the on line fragrance liquidator, this is quite the bargain as there is no nasty shipping costs. Admittedly, itRead more

Looking for Trouble with Rumble 59

You probably know by now that I don’t review fragrance quite the same way as other bloggers. I am not a complicate man and for me fragrances are more about the raw emotions.

Sex & Cigars by Mammoth Beard

First off, I am all about niche fragrances. The main stream party is way too busy with an abundance of fragrances that are often very similar. Mammoth Beard – Sex & Cigars is outside that very busy path. The Sex & Cigars name creates a visual and a certain expectation. The first two aromas IRead more

450 XFACTOR by Sweet Fumes

It is always with great interest that I put my nose to a new fragrance. With Sweet Fumes, this is even more of a treat as I was invited to the inner circle. I met Sweet Fumes through Instagram and was very interested in their signature fragrance “450 XFACTOR”. Sweet Fumes offers their fragrances inRead more

This was an impulse purchase after watching a few reviews that commended its originality. Based on the notes listed on Fragrantica, I was very interested since everything in there appealed to me. Top Notes: Lavender, Cardamom, Lemon Middle Notes: Coffee, Whiskey, cinnamon. Leather, Mineral notes Base Notes: Tonka Bean, Incense, Amber Yeah, you see itRead more

Yacht Man – Chocolate

Fragrances have always been something of interest and over the course of the last year I have certainly been able to explore more fragrances than ever before. These encounters have been documented through Style4men both here on the site as well as on our Instagram companion page. Most of the fragrances I have been tryingRead more
