I smelled Penguin from Zoologist at my local dealer. I told him to wrap it up immediately. Amazing stuff. The one I got came in a limited "iced" white and blue bottle. Incredible presentation, and the scent is about as cold as anything I've ever smelled before. Actually feels like it cools the air around the mist. Definitely get your nose on this.

The citrusy feeling from New Look 2024 is from the limonene in the frankincense accompanied by aldehydes and amber which gives it the effervescent feeling similar to a freshly opened and poured can of Sprite.

A few weeks ago my SA at Saks (whose area includes the Initio/PDM section) gave me a sample of Narcotic Delight and had just gone through training with the regionals and they said that Narcotic Delight is their 17th fragrance and by the end of 2024 there will be 26 fragrances in the line - so NINE new ones coming out this year.

Zoologist penguin reminds me so much of Margiela's Sailing Day. It's the juniper berries I guess. Very similar only Penguin took an icier and more ozonic approach while Sailing Day is overdosed with aldehydes freshness

Wonder if Narcisso is a regional thing in terms of in-store availability. I'm in Palm Beach and Macy's and Bloomingdale's have in-stock for pick up; Nordstrom does not. Palm Beach gets a ton of Europeans visiting during the holidays and during horse season. Wondering if there's some correlation?

I've smelled From The Garden by MM. I liked it but it might be one I'd prefer to smell in a different form rather than on my skin. I feel that way about many notes I'm learning. I'm eager to smell the new PDM which I heard about from the fragrance guy at Nordstrom.

I would not recommend blind buying any Zoologist perfume as they are often hyper-conceptual in an unwearable way, but then again if it’s the limited edition it should resell pretty well!

I was just mentioning on Ashton's channels how unbelievable it is to see an edp of Bvlgari's Pour Homme just released. Nearly two decades of nothing in the line (I honestly thought it was discontinued at one point), and suddenly this. 😄 Perhaps an attempt at banking on the green trend? 💚 Either way, I'll be getting my nose on it for sure. There's hope for old fragrances yet!

Completley unrelated question to this video, but I got just recieved another 13 by le labo, as I'm really into skin scent musky fragrances. For the life of me, I can NOT figure out what that sharp spicy kinda note is. I sampled this before buying the whole bottle and didnt get the spicy scent. What is it? Did I overspay? No problems with projection or longevity though.

The only designer fragrances I buy are Givenchy Gentleman Original, flankers are horrendious, Chanel Antaeus, Dior Homme Intense Original and some beautiful Hermes fragrances (altho I don count them as designer per se) Zadig have beautiful blends just not long lasting sadly. I just prefer perfume houses like Guerlain, Caron,Jacques Fath,.... and other nieche fragrance houses.
