  • Montale Patchouli Leaves
  • Amouage Tribute Attar
  • Creed Royal Mayfair

The Instigator
Nice.

I only have one of those - Aventus - but read where Turin/Sanchez really like L'air, it's on my short list. Several others are of interest, unfortunately!

Amouage Jubilation XXV fell just out of my top ten. It is an excellent fragrance, with a bright, almost sparkling frankincense. I recommend it for those who tend to be put off by incense notes, finding them dark. There is nothing in Jubilation XXV that will remind anyone of sitting in church. From the fruity, berry opening through its real ambergris base, it is an uplifting fragrance. It is the most opulent scent I've worn, and if a scent can be said to smell expensive, it's the one. I tend to save it for special occasions. Portrait of a Lady is another great fragrance. While a unisex fragrance, I think the name scares some men off. As my list probably makes clear, I enjoy both rose and patchouli, and POAL nails both notes. Unfortunately, it is my wife's signature scent, so it's not an option for me.

Nice! What do you think of the Amouage? I have been wanting to try their Attars

Besides Tribute and Jubilation, I have several other Amouage fragrances. I enjoy Homage, but if I had to pick one of their Attars, I prefer the darker, smokier rose mixed with incense that the Tribute delivers.
