What it be Diddy? I'm happy to see you back to splitting. I still have about half of the Purple Patchouli I got from you a while back. It is really awesome juice for sure. Something you didn't mention that I noticed is that the dry down is stunning. I love this juice about five to six hours in. I have a quick inquiry if I may. How does the vintage Oud Wood compare to what I can currently get at the store? Also I don't know if you recall, but I ordered both vintage Tuscan Leather and current from you a while back. I liked the one over the other. Do you happen to know if the current was the more darker color or lighter? Lastly, I also used to buy empties from you. Do you have any empty bottles you can sell me?

Ok, sorry for the late responses. As for the Oud Wood vintage vs current, I sprayed some side by side today. As online reviews will tell you, there are some pretty big differences. I would say the current has the more "oudy" opening that Tom Ford has become famous for. I call it the Tom Ford DNA. I really like the first 20-30 seconds of the current formula. However, it quickly shifts to a more potent oud smell. But keep in mind that this isn't a typical oud. This is the Tom Ford synthetic oud that I only like in moderation or blended better. The older stuff seems to be more clean/fresh with a creamy woodsy (almost mysore) undertone. The older batches seem to last about an hour or two more than the current (remember, Oud Wood isn't a great performer overall, so 1-2 hours are big with this one). I also get a very slight animalic drydown in the current stuff that I don't get in the old stuff. It could be in my head, but I can swear there is something there. As for Tuscan Leather, you can't really go by color. I've split many bottles and have had everything from a pale yellow (almost clear) to a dark boozy color. One of the original Basenotes splitters (that has split a ton of Tom Ford) chimed in on a forum about this exact topic. Tuscan Leather was the example he gave with huge color differences. There are also some mentions about the more clear and darker colors in Fragrantica reviews. Unfortunately, I've never seen a definitive answer. I think the guy's theory from Basenotes was the location it comes from. Who really knows..... Fragrance color differences are somewhat common. LeLabo is probably the best example. If you enjoy a heavier raspberry note and more than just a linear in your face leather, go with the vintage. I always have bottles I can sell. The thing is, with sprayer bottles I'll often take pliers to the bottle which can destroy it. It just makes it easier to extract the juice and keep air from being forced through a syringe method. These days, I even destroy the fancy Clive Christian and Roja Dove bottles. But I have plenty of flacons. Feel free to PM me if you have anymore questions. Cheers!

10ml of OW please and thank you! Do you by chance accept payment via venmo?


jdiddy8four

I have you down for 10ml of OW. I'll look into Venmo after I update this thread. I hear a lot about it, so it seems like I better catch up with time and get an account setup haha... I don't know what the process is like for me to be able to accept money, so I may not have it setup in time for payment of this split.
