I think you'd totally enjoy the Jardin Noir article I talked about in post #38 here. With your love of fragrance and our shared interest in Tom Ford, I have no doubt you'll appreciate the content.

I completely omitted several other scents I've worn, both past and present. Blame this on lack of sleep for my brain drain. 🙄🥱🤔🤨. 

1. But one mention I think you'd like based on what you've shared is Iman's Love Memoir. Designed to honor her memories and love for David Bowie. It's quite remarkable, very tasteful and unique. I purchased the HSN encore and have recommended to several friends  who too love this scent. The original came with the edp, a 10ml refillable Traveler, wee funnel and body lotion all in a lovely gift box. A very nice presentation. Items have been broken up by ebay sellers and the 10ml was reasonable when I last checked. I wish you lived close  I'd decant a sample for you.

Also  have you tried TF Santal Blush or Champaca? Your thoughts if you know either of these. Tks

No problem but I appreciate your trying. I tried to enlarge the pic in my gallery but it just got blurrier.

Did you see I purchased a Commodity sampler? It was hard to choose but selected the Exploration set plus the Replica Memory sampler too. Hopefully I chose well but at least its a start. Been wanting to try Commodity since we talked about it awhile back.

I hope you enjoy the Commodity and Replica scents.  I've had that Commodity sample sent.  The three I like (and have in full sizes) are Gold, Milk and Velvet.  Velvet is my favorite.  I've had it (actually on bottle #2) since March 2019.  I messed up and bought the + version of Milk.  I had it prior to them moving to the new scent spaces.  It's such a smooth and fairly sweet scent I thought I could do the +.  It never dries down (on me).  I wrote to them after they emailed me to thank me for continuing to purchase their products over the years.  I explained the issue with the Milk+ and asked if I could return it as I never reach for it since it stays in a perpetual state of having been just applied.  They said no

The only other Replica fragrance I've tried is Jazz Club.  It didn't smell anything like the description.  I'm not above thinking it might be my covid nose.  I duuno.  I helped "influence" one of my favorite beauty influencers to try By the Fireplace.  She LOVES it!

ROCHELLE AND ALL,

PICKED UP THE TF SAMPLER FOR $68 AT SELFRIDGES.

THAN PURCHESED THE TODAY ONLY LAVA BRACELETS WHICH WERE 3 FOR $24.95.

THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GREAT STOCKING STUFFER FOR MY MOM AND 2 SISTERS, TO PUT A BRACELET IN THE ORGANZA BAG, WITH A COUPLE OF TF SAMPLES TO USE WITH THE LAVA BEADS. 

THINK THEY WILL ALL LOVE IT!!!!

@ValuSkr  An unfortunate moniker, in my opinion.
