Best Classic Designer seller for 2009

Image
By

I buy what seems to be an inordinate amount of classic masculines. Because of this, I said to myself, "How can I shamelessly plug my favorite seller and HTF connection"? After all, in my mind he deserves a thread.

Why, you say? That's fairly simple. It's because of who he is, what he has and his prices. Yes....the big 3.
I can tell you he is an honest individual and a gentleman. I can tell you he goes out of his way to give a great deal to repeat buyers. I can tell you he communicates during the transaction and always seems to go that little extra. I can tell you his package arrives with everything just like it's supposed to be with superb packaging and the interesting add-ons he throws in there.

Sure......I can tell you all those things.....and I'd be telling you the straight up truth. I can also tell you his prices for rare and discontinued frags will be extremely hard to beat. I have begun to buy nearly all my vintage juice from Henry because he is a super nice guy with integrity.....and it doesn't hurt that he has boatloads of impossible to find fragrances. As a buyer, that's a combination that's very hard to find, let alone beat.

If you ever have need of a scent that nobody else has....or.....that somebody else wants a ransom for, keep this link handy. Every week there are new additions to an already impressive array of juice that will never be duplicated again.

    Good LORD! Wow! What an awesome selection of vintage frags. Thanks for the pointer. Now I know where to go if I ever want some vintage. And I've got to admit....

    there are a few things he's got....

    resisting....

    resisting....

    Sigh. There's vintage in my future, I admit.

Oriental Lounge by The Different Company

By
Bergamot, Curry Leaf, Pepper, Red Rose, Tonka Bean, Labdanum, Satinwood. I suppose the first thing I noticed about Oriental Lounge is that as a man, this is a bit of a stretch to pull off. Since the core of Oriental Lounge is a powdery tonka and amber duo, it really does lean a bit too far feminine for me to wear. However, it would smell just as lovely on a woman and more appropriate as well. I bring this up simply because it's marketed as shared. I was wondering about the curry leaf. Actually, this "note" brought nothing to the table with the exception of possibly enhancing the pepper note just a bit. Even so, the pepper note itself was low key ( at least on me ) and both blended nicely with the citrus opening. From the onset of Oriental Lounge, it's unmistakable that this fragrance is.......well.....an oriental. From other opinions, I read some gripes about longevity, but it lasts on me quite awhile. This fragrance is uncomplicated and without much movemen...

Black Suede by Avon

By
Nutmeg, Clove, Amber, Musk, Moss, Wood Notes. Yes.........I am reviewing one of the Rodney Dangerfield's of fragrance. Black Suede has been gracing medicine cabinets, for better or worse, since 1980 my friends. If you're expecting me to inform you ( like others may have already ) that Black Suede is a nasty scrubber, you will be disappointed. On the other hand, if you're expecting a glowing review claiming it's a diamond in the rough, you won't hear that from me either. I will say though that Black Suede doesn't deserve the hate it's received and most of that is due to snobbery aimed at Avon products in general. I kid you not when I state that a close relative to this fragrance is Cacharel Pour L'Homme. The array of spice in both ensure comparison, but the "smoother" of the two is Black Suede due to its implementation of Amber. While wearing Black Suede, one can detect a hint of "drugstore". That quality doesn't manife...

Paco Rabanne Pour Homme

By
I am reviewing the original Paco Rabanne Pour Homme ( circa 1973 ) thanks to a generous basenoter who sent it to me recently in a swap. He also sent me the current formulation in order for me to do a side by side comparison. The side by side resulted in what I had already imagined would be the case. Not that the newer formula is terrible by any means. The original version simply is better by being deeper and a bit more masculine. No......you shouldn't go to ebay searching for the vintage formula and paying stupid prices. It's simply a notch or two better than the current and noticeable by comparing the two in real time. Rabanne Pour Homme opens with a slight shimmer in conjunction with lavender, spices and a subtle woodiness. It's an old school introduction, however a good one. The lavender takes about 5 minutes to raise its volume and evolve into a soapy rendition. I dislike when a boatload of soapy lavender takes over a composition, but here it doesn't go over t...
