Estes — 345 Soap Co.

Notes listed include orange, anise, peppercorn, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, ylang ylang, musk, and patchouli. 

Smells more like cinnamon red hot to me than purple-mountain majesty.  It defies expectations . . . mine, at least.

I haven’t been posting much because I’ve largely had a small summer rotation:

LV Afternoon Swim
LV Pacific Chill
Roja Dove Elysium Intense

And while not a fragrance an aftershave that reeks of summer:

Summer Break Soaps Cannonball

A few others have crept in but that’s been my summer.  If not out of place here, might I ask on this traditional last day of summer what are others “favorite” summer scents?  Or should I just set up a separate thread?

I know, it only cost $10 bucks, but I like it, I like it, yes I do ...

I’m one of those who live summer dreaming about winter so my rotation has been small too: Salted Green Mango and Eternal Summer by Strangers Parfumerie, Aer by Angela Ciampagna, Abyss by Abdul Karim Al Faransi, Un Assenzio by Dedè Arte Profumata.
Sampled for the first time in my life Kobe and Naxos by Xerjoff (both huge disappointment), Note de Yuzu by Heeley (meh...) and Seahorse by Zoologist (interesting but I prefer Squid).
Also finally sniffed your beloved Afternoon Swim! I see, no one on earth could ever dislike something like that, just a bit too much aldehydes to my taste... In that freshie mood, I enjoyed Imagination way more while I was in the LV store.

Strictly wetshaving speaking, WK Fougere Mania and Chatillon Lux 88 Chestnut St. toners were the two I reached the most. Always had an itch for SBS Cannonball but afraid about the cooling effect...

Well, Bvlgari Wood Neroli is a fine Summer scent.  (No idea why I thought of it.)

Love Bond Eau New York for Summer but the bottles are just hideously Gaudy and unergonomic.  That stated, am seeking a world class aquatic with legs.

WK Fougere Mania gets far less attention than it deserves
