Very curious about this Freddy. Any decent analogs to compare with or to? I love yuzu and patch - does it perform?

Hi Tommy.  I apologize for not answering sooner as I just noticed this post and the one for Rose Santal.  I have become a huge fan of Chatillon Lux products.  There have been a couple of scents that weren't for me but Shawn understood where I was coming from.

Besides the two mentioned above, I also have Fourth and Pine and Lavande Poivre.  What I like about them is that sometimes I think I can smell the individual accords and then, all of a sudden, they just seem to form into a wonderful whole.  

The Yuzu/Rose/Patchouli is a wonderful blend that I wear often and get quite a few compliments on.  

The Rose Santal is amazing in that I get the rose, I get the sandalwood, but ultimately it becomes it's own individual scent.  To me, it is earthier than the Yuzu/Rose/Patchouli.

Fourth and Pine EdT, because of it's citrus base, is not supposed to have as much longevity.  However, I find it is definitely one of the longer lasting Chatillon Lux  eau de toilettes that I have.  While citrus is definitely dominant, Fourth and Pine, like so many of Shawn's creations, is just that wee bit more giving it a nice twist.

Like the others I have mentioned here, Lavande Poivre is more than it's main players, lavender and pepper.  For me, it's an earthy scent that the lavender tames just enough.

Obviously, these are completely subjective thoughts and I wish hawns would  speak to my ideas if they're too out of line.  My suggestion would be to try a couple of his sample sizes to see how you get along with them.  The samples can be used for travel as they come in small solid glass bottles with atomizers.
Big thanks. And i am going to get some samples. Been eye balling all of the positive reviews, and I have seen your frequent posts. Much appreciate the time and thought. I am going to try the rose/sdlwd and the yuzu/patch. Some of my favorite notes.
