Creed - Royal Oud Millesime

An era is coming to its end. The last few sprays are out of the bottle marking the conclusion of a long love affair with Creed's Royal Oud. I won't restock because I fear that any of the newer batches will just be a disappointment. I might however look at lower priced alternatives in the Middle East. Lattafa comes to mind, but I also hear good things about Franck Olivier.

Patchouli Theme: Classic Match Polo, Glastonbury, and patchouli essential oil

FWIW, I bought, then sold, a 2022 bottle of Polo, finding it a poor match for my scent memory from 1986. The Classic Match is coarse, and I'm open to superior alternatives, but it offers some goodness and fits here. Glastonbury is textured, too; the Plant Guru dark patchouli oil is the smoothest of these three.
