    I love PdM, and def recognize that many of their 'niche' frags resemble others. This group of youngsters picked the PdM frag most closely related to A&F Fierce. Happily surprised that several liked AND appreciated Black Iris.....they would have freaked out with the OG Interlude Man. As they get older I think some of them may be more open Nasomatto.

      @@GrowingDownUnder It's absolutely good business to dupe naive consumers into buying something for $400 that costs $4 to make. 😄 People pay for the perception of luxury and exclusivity, not the product; and the exploitation of ignorance has been a hallmark of human behaviour for thousands of years. The choice is therefore either to become informed, or remain exploited - with the bulk of profits in the luxuries industry coming from the latter (although both can still be manipulated). That may change as people become more connected and aware, but it'll take time. in the meantime, let's give people something familiar and make $$$$!!! 😂

There's hundreds of percival clones too which make it completely redundant to buy and own. I see a lot of influencers pushing it but the fact is it's redundant to buy with better and cheaper alternatives. I wouldn't say beckam respect is better, because it's not better but it is cheaper.

    LeLabo’s Another13 or Santal 33, after the dry down. Freshness with character.
    And for the Hotter weather-
