Yeh I've sampled them both multiple times, 20% off was the last straw. :p

I'll pick up Ocean at some point its one of the better blues, and I do love me a dumb reach blue frag.

Surprised you didn’t pick up ocean at the same time from escentual with the 20% discount. :P

The thought did cross my mind but in no rush. Will sample it properly first.

Fair play ! The right decision. Pointless blind buying it, and potentially not liking it, and then being stuck with 50/100 mill.

Just checked my order of sauvage elixir. Was shipped out this morning at 4am. Checked stock too (they had 25+ yesterday afternoon. Now all sold out)
 
Went on a bit of a spending spree recently and bought Spice Bomb, Armaf CDN Intense, Terre D’Hermes and Tom Ford Noir. That should hopefully last me a while :p

The Armaf CDN is excellent considering the price!

Glad you like it! (Cdni) I’d personally pick things like Milton Lloyds victor number 9 over that though (worth giving a try especially for the £10ish asking price ) I recommended it to @mrk and I think he likes it :P

I’ll give that a shot next thanks :) I actually bought Spice Bomb after seeing @mrk talking about it in this thread, just waiting on it to arrive!

To be fair I've been wearing the sample all day and it's pretty good. Nothing amazing but pretty decent. Got a slight Prada L'Homme vibe due to the iris, with an bit of an ambroxan/sauvage tint to it.

Nice one! Spicebomb is fantastic. I think you’ll really enjoy it. Just a heads up.. escentual is doing 20% off every purchase at the moment. Also, for anything niche (if you end up going down that road) seescents has some good deals ! (Parfums de Marly 125ml for £169 which is about the same price as the 75ml elsewhere)

Iris and Ambroxan doesn’t sound like it should work…I need to try this :)

I actually purchased a new bottle of 30ml bvlgari aqva atlanqve today, gotta say, I think it’s my favourite blue scent that I’ve tried!
 
Spice bomb is amazing for sure and lasted me many months. Victor no 9 though has a totally unique fragrance in its price point and is more like Creed which more than one person has asked if that's what I'm wearing before, and it seems to last almost all day for me. Between the two I like to wear no 9 the most as it gets the most comments :D

I'll see what this red hot one is like when it arrives tomorrow but I doubt there's anything that can top no 9 especially given the price.

I've still not tried this No9 thing, and I'm someone with various batches of Aventus.... Must give it a go.

For the price (it’s so cheap) you need to give it a go. It’s reminiscent of a fruity batch of Aventus. Allbeauty have it for £12.45 for 83ml. A fair amount of reviews like it more than the actual real deal.

It's the bergamot, not sure what made me think of ambroxan.
 
Red Hot smells very summery but the dispenser vaporises it too fine a mist so I'm not getting it applied as well as Victor no 9 or Spice Bomb. Will continue using it until it's gone but no 9, Blue Jeans and Spice Bomb are my fav now. 9 being #1.

Have you tried Mojo No.10? I have it, and quite like it. More for winter though !
 
I have not!

Next time I order I shall add cheers :cool:

Edit*
I forgot, I just looked it up and yes indeed I have had Number 10 :D I liked it a lot but it wasn't as unique as Victor 9 though so only got Mojo a couple times again before sticking with 9.
