Pur Ambre by Louis Vuitton
Opens up weirdly metallic, but thankfully loses that edge after an hour or so and ends up smelling fantastic.Not too much to say on this one, Amber(gris)y/Ambroxy. If you don't like either of those things, you probably won't like this.
Has that cool weather 'ambery' warmth going on, leaning more masculine. Thankfully I don't get any real animalic notes.
Performance is great, 8/10. Can still smell it radiating off my wrist at the end of the day. Definitely an inviting scent.
Worth the £895 they charge in the UK? Hmmmm no, not for me anyways.
I haven't smelled too much like this. I find Ambrox is used more for warmer weather fragrances to add body, whereas here it adds warmth. Very nice.
Precious Oud by Mancera
All the notes sound like something I'd like, along with all the reviews.However, I spray it and it just smells of cough medicine or something...a familiar scent that I do not like at all.
I have 100+ fragrances and this is one of the few ones I have had to scrub off.

1 Million by Paco Rabanne
I personally cannot see myself wearing this, yet I still quite enjoy it.This fragrance is certainly something that kicks you in the face, with its initial blast of what I smell as "bubblegum", this then stays for the duration of the scent which is a exceedingly long time. The base also gives it a subtle masculinity in my opinion.
Be VERY light on the trigger on this one, on my skin at least, this is ridiculously potent, which depending on your outlook or what you look for in a fragrance, this can be either a good or a bad thing.
If you like strong sweet fragrances , give this one a go :D
