Any recommendations for a vanilla leather for men?
Nice pongs and gorgeous whiffs. The Aftershave thread!

Surprised this is still available, it has a very polarising smell, has a Dettol vibe. I got a 90ml bottle back in 2017 for £35.
I tested it this afternoon in my local perfumery. And I fell for it. It’s so good. I don’t understand the band aid / plaster and petrol reviews.
This is seriously good stuff. Fair play to Morillas for trying something different.
You could try cedrat boise. It has both vanilla and leather.
Edit. Fragrance is so personal. I’d test It before buying personally as you may not like it.
I love it personally.
Edit 2. You could also try the Cedrat Boise intense too. As it also contains leather and vanilla

I really like Old Spice too, my dad gave me a bottle a couple of years back I but find it's longevity very poor.
Yes, same for me as well.
Got my bottle of intense Cedrat Boise. Much like the original, but much richer, and a more prominent leather. Really enjoyable year round frag! Very recommended.

Blind bought and chanced it on the back-in-stock Detour Noir (PdM Layton clone) and Encre Noire. Horrific bottle on the former but I don’t buy for presentation! First impressions when I’ve let them sit for a bit.

Anyone use Thierry Mulger Havane? it seems like it's been discontinued
is there anything similar on the market?
Insurrection 2 Wild.
Or Naxos is similar if you’re happy paying the Xerjoff premium.
I have Naxos. The presentation and quality of the whole package was amazing.
The fragrance is stunning too.
How long will aftershave and other fragrances last for? I have a bottle of Hugo Boss Dark blue that I’ve had for years, only used half so far. Still smells good I think? Do they go off? Not stored in direct light but not hidden away somewhere dark either.
Dark fragrances last longer but if stored in the cool and dark, could last 10+ years
Keep it out of direct sunlight, and at a normal temp / humidity and you’ll be good.
I’ve seen people buy fragrances from the 80’s that are still perfectly ok.
I’ve had a couple of my fragrances for a few years now and they’re still spot on.
The only fragrance I’ve thrown away was Marc jacobs - bang, as it was sat in sunlight most of its days.

EN - opening had me wondering if this would be my first fail at a blind buy but I loved it once it dried down. Not beast mode but very pleasing nevertheless
DT - sprayer is abysmal, scent is glorious although I wish it was a bit more nuclear
Happy days.
