What's new

Oh my! This Tom of Finland, guys. Oh my , this Tom of Finland, Oh my!

I don't think I really need to say much to follow that title up. My bottle arrived from luckyscent yesterday morning and I got to take it for a test drive all day. I knew from the small sample I had gotten that I was going to love it but you can really only get so much out of those small vial samples. It wasn't until I had my bottle in hand that I figured out just how great this fragrance is. Being able to get a few good direct sprays gives, obviously so much more than I was getting just dabbing it on my neck and wrist. Its a lot louder than I thought it was going to be which is great for me. I was also able to pick up on a very dominant musk not that I wasn't getting with the sample. I'm not a big compliment whore but I am glad to say that just yesterday I got a few of them with this. Two different people in the Buckle commented on it when I went to pick up clothes. The Israeli dude at one of the center kiosks asked what it was (though I quickly told him and blew him off cause I didn't need any lotion or hand salt rubs lol). And both my buddies that I run all my fragrances by said it was great. I wish that it came in a bigger bottle. I see myself using this one very very often :thumbup:

I found this statement in particular rather hilarious when combined with the background of the name of the scent.

Haha yep. Phrasing!

I'm afraid I prematurely shot my wad on what was supposed to be a dry run if you will, so I'm afraid I have something of a mess on my hands


Is there anything to which you'd compare this fragrance, huckleberry?

Honestly, no. Not right off hand anyway. This is only my second fragrance with a very dominant musk note. My first being Narciso Rodriguez Musc which is a totally different musk. And its my first with a dominant leather note. I have a couple with leather sitting on the sidelines but never as a key player. Before I got TOF I put up a post on basenotes asking if it compared to anything so I could have something to go off of and from what I gathered it seems like there aren't many comparable scents. Kind of sad because I definitely wouldn't mind checking out anything that's similar to this gem!

Finbarr Saunders (and his double entendres) would have died in a fit of terminal snickering. (this may only make sense if British. if not, never mind)
 
I just got a decant and plan on test driving this one over the weekend. How many sprays do you recommend?

BTW if I ever get the bottle, I will definitely not take the box with me when I travel.
