Men Essentials has La Foret de Liguest and LQV in stock if Shawns stock on the discontinued scents runs out

I have a bottle and ordered two more from Shawn... But men's essentials site seems to be down. I checked many weeks ago and it was down then. They are switching platforms or something. Are you looking at the Canadian site?

You could probably guess pretty well based on the pairing recommendations from Shawn's site. But I'll do a smelling tonight and let you know my opinion.

Probably Bon Vivant or Gratiot League Square. La Quatriemme Ville is great if you like smoky vetiver.

I typed a reply but it didn't go through. I was going to suggest Bon Vivant. I tried all but lavendar and La Quatriemme Ville so wyze0ne probably hit it on the money.

Yes, the Canadian site is fine. They're a bit of a clunky site, there is no "New Arrivals" section and stuff will show sold out for years even when its available elsewhere. They are the ono source in Canada for some special things though like Chatillon Lux aftershaves (alcohol)

Hey Chaddy! Like others have said, Gratiot League Square is rich and spicy and probably overall our most popular scent. Bon Vivant is goes in a darker direction but less spicy, although it does have a bite to the scent. La Quatrième Ville would be smoky vetiver with a resinous, green tint mixed with incense. Which is to say that I'm agreeing with the recommendations, just wanted to give a little context.

At the same time, I have sample sizes available at ChatillonLux.com if you want to try anything before investing in a full bottle. I have most every type of product available in those products (and will be working on more later) in a sample size.

Do you have anything in the bay rum camp?

Bon Vivant pairs very well with bay rums. Also, I made a scent called Blackberry Blossom Bay for a DFS group buy recently and will probably do another run of it in February along with a matching soap from Tallow + Steel
