DO NOT sniff ANY of the scents from the men's most popular sampler set!!!
These are CONCENTRATED scents, says so right on the lable.....duh.
Further more, you will burn out your nose's pallet.
I tried Teddy II and it dried down to a very sweet/sugary smell that is quite pleasant, despite smelling like something I would never wear.
I, because I was stupid and sniffed from the vial, can't recognize the spicier undertones.
I will report as worn.

Hahaha, glad I could brighten your evening.
Yeah I'm good.
I'll say this, like the scents or not, you won't smell like everyone else....

I agree there fragrances are fantastic

The scents Mara creates are definitely unique and even though most of us guys aren't used to smelling like a mocha flavored coffee mixed with apricot and patchouli, women really seem to dig the scents and... after all isn't that a large part of why most of us guys wear them? Too get women to stand a bit closer and linger a bit longer?

Yes sir!!!!

Have tried Excalibur, Merlins, and Homme since SS4M.
Not terribly fond of Excalibur or Merlin. I understand what Ek's was talking about on the base note.
In all fairness I am pretty sure I used too much (like 4+ dabs from the sample wand). I will try again at 1 to 1 1/2 swipes.
Even though my girl said it smells sweet(she has a point), I L O V E THE HOMME!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! 4+ dabs?!!! Yeah, go with a swipe or two from the wand. The stuff in the sample vials is extra concentrated. I wear LP: Homme more than any other scent because quite simply, women dig it. So do I which is an added bonus but that scent is a great icebreaker because it smells really nice and very unique.

True. The samples I got r love potion:homme love potion:original and toten:deer. I like all of'em. And true about not smelling like anyone else. U smell unique.

I use 7 dabs from the samplers, but all over. Some on torso that's covered by a shirt
