The one who dies with the most wins! Or at least I am trying. I know I have too many myself. In order to find a few exceptional ones you have to buy and weed through them which means you ends up with some not so good ones. I have some good performers where the scent is not that great and then I have some that the scent smells great and don't perform for me all that well so it is hard to find a winner in every one you buy. If I had to live with just one maker it would have to be Saponificio Varesino. I only have had a few scents but every one the performance is top notch for me.
