  1. I just tried this one and the first thing it reminded me of was Mark's Tonka Tabacum.  I went to find my bottle of Tonka Tabacum and put that in another spot to compare.  The Adam's Man is a less "heavy" and  apple forward version of Tonka Tabacum...at least to me.  I really like Adam's Nectar and it's a bit more "wearable" to me than Tonka Tabacum was.  

  2. Today while wearing Super II I went out to a local burger place. The place was busy so I took a seat at the bar and waited to order. This place has all female wait staff and I hear them whispering about something that smells good. After about placing my drink and food order one of the waitresses comes over and ask if I'm wearing some kind of special lotion or something. I just tell her it's a maple and tobacco based cologne I found online. She then yells to the other waitresses "It's this guy right here". All the waitresses come over to compliment me on the scent. The first waitress then comes back to ask where she can buy the scent. I let her know and the rest of the time I'm seated at the bar, at least 2 waitress or milling about right in front of me with one saying she's not moving until I leave.

     

    I've worn Super many times and never heard a peep on way or the other but today it's was a cornucopia of compliments :)

  3. I'm thinking of making this my everyday scent. Smells great but doesn't feel like I'm wearing a scent. There are times I want what I'm wearing to be noticeable, but at those other times, this one will come in handy.

  4. Olderbutwiser: I did try both Totem Wolf and Lion. I liked Lion a litter better with the jasmine like smell. For some reason Wolf is off putting to me. I haven't tried it on skin yet for a full day so I should give it a full try to see how it evolves outside of the bottle. I just ordered a sample of Beaver so hopefully I'll have something to report on that soon.

  5. Got my first compliment on a LP fragrance today with Sorcerer v2. I walked into a smoothie shop to get my post workout protein infusion. The lady that followed me into the store starts going on and on about how good it smells in the shop. She then walks up to me and asks what I'm wearing. I told her something I picked up in New Orleans in the French Quarter. Sorcerer and Voracious are becoming my favorite two scents so far.

  6. I'm trying out Tonka Tabacum for a full day today. I get almost all tobacco when I smell it. This one reminds me of when I used to visit my Granddad when I was a kid. He was a cigar smoker and his car and bedroom smelled like tobacco. I'm enjoying it but it does seem more like a cold weather scent so I might save this one more for this coming fall and winter. I'll also say it smells like Super 2 without the maple syrup.

  7. Wanted to try Bear, but the peanut factor is putting me off.....Spoonki..did you try Totem: Beaver/SWS? It's wonderful and absolutely could be worn by men.

    I haven't tried that one. But I'll get a sampler on my next order and try it out. I really like honey scents which is why I tried Bear. Thanks for the recommendation :)

  8. I tried this one tonight from a sample I have. At first I HATED it...the peanut/honey smell was overwhelming to me. However, after a few minutes, the peanut wore off and now I'm loving this one. The woods and honey that I smell now mix very well together. Might be worth trying for the other guys out there reading this.

  9. I was hoping to find a product that had similar notes to Mark's Girl Nip, even though I've never been able to sample it before. Even though Coco Honey is a feminine product by design, I had to give it a try as I love the notes and I have an ex who really liked cocoa and honey notes on my skin. So far I don't find it too girly on my skin but I'll tread lightly with this one.

  10. I tried out Totem:Lion for a moment last night and I agree with most of the comments that the first whiff on skin isn't the most pleasant experience of my scents so far. But after about 15-20 minutes, I loved it. I'll have to give it another try this week for a longer period of time than I wore it last night.
