This is Ms. Flashona's private property, but she doesn't mind me stealing a spray now and then. It's a very interesting accord made without a drop of the real thing (à la Musc Ravageur), green and dewy leaves with a pleasant musky drydown.
I was actually looking for some tuberose shaving soaps and only found one by Joserra, do you guys have any other tips?
Thx in advance

(Yesterday - Decant) City Rhythm Miami. This is all a bit complicated, my trying of this one. A few days ago I tried (and liked) City Rhythm's 2654 (I've also now tried 2654 combined with Corallium but that, which is a real winner, is for another day). This is its half-sibling. Literally so: the 2654 is a combination of City Rhythm's Miami and San Diego perfumes. And to further muck things up there is yet another coconut-based City Rhythm scent, Tropical Confessions (for another day). Anyway, I tried Miami on its own. Compared to 2654, this is more tropical and fruitier. (2654 also has juniper, orange and some ambergris to give it a less tropical vibe and, to me, a bit more structure). Miami is bright lime and coconut over rum. A touch synthetic off the start but that disappears; which was also true of 2654. The dry down is really nice: the coconut is still there but it is a bit boozier with a touch of wood and tonka/vanilla. I also really like this one, and more so than most coconut based scents I've ever tried -- it's similar to Creed Virgin Island water but I found that thin and kind of insipid. This is fuller bodied and has the rum base. So, I do really like it. What I will now have try is to compare Miami to Prisma Perfumes' Topaz because that is apparently the original formulation of this scent, and some folks online like it better and say it has better duration. Miami, on its own, has medium duration for me.

Good God man! Rapt in coconut entrique; please do weave further as spell bound by coconut foreward scents
