Unique underrated sandalwood
In the same vein as Egoiste, Trumper Sandalwood and Floris Santal, but fresher I think. I actually prefer this. Some people think it's 'synthetic' or 'plastic'. That is just the bottle colour and futuristic shape that plays tricks with their minds. I like it. it's my favourite sandalwood and it's unique.
Good cheapie
As usual, good quality from Mäurer & Wirtz, both in terms of the juice and the bottle/sprayer, especially for the price I paid, around 14 Euro for 30 ml. It is incredibly versatile, and I would say that you can wear it any time, anywhere without offending anybody. It is a fresh modern fougere, with some soft oriental undertones. On me it's quite weak (which can be good, for office settings et c). I find that I need at least four sprays, and I usually only go for two sprays, since I don't like to overspray. It's signature worthy, if you are looking for something affordable and a bit different from the mainstream.

Great chypre
What a great quality scent for the money. Just amazing. Love to wear it now in the early fall. There is a perfect balance between the sweetness and bitterness. And it's not just a great smell, it's so interesting to wear as it develops. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a classic citrus chypre.
P. S. Actual oakmoss in the ingredient list.

Great fall scent
Great scent. Perfect for early fall. Reminds me of Encre Noir. It's smoother and more wearable, but in the same style. I get a dark vetiver, smoothed out by the musk and the other notes. Six to eight sprays, and it's perfect.
Great value for money
In the ingredients list actual, real sandalwood oil is listed (along with caramel and perfume). I also get florals, classic rose, and some light spices on top. If I splash it all over my upper body under my clothes I get 3-4 hours good longevity, thereafter a nice skin scent with an aura. Just reapply if needed, it's dirt cheap for the quality you get. Gentlemanly, old school with a modern feel.
Edit: I actually get more than 6 hours longevity.
