There are a few that are alright and Haltane happened to be one of the better performing ones from my Discovery kit along with Sedley and one that I ended up buying a full bottle being Pegasus Exclusif. The rest just didn’t last very long. Oh Greenley did but it turns in to a Smokey fruit scent like Aventus after 3 hours and that put me off buying it.
I was astonished at how bad Layton performed after so many people praising it. I got my kit directly from PDM just a month or 2 ago. Haltane was actually one I thought about buying because it performs so well on me but I have Oud Noir from ATH which is similar so put a pause on it, so yeah maybe something is wrong or it could be skin chemistry but they have been messing around with the concentration.
Can you post some images of the bottle also please.
Hi, first thing first, the images should be in the original post.
The discounter was so nice and they took the open bottle back and refunded me the full price.
I got another one directly from PDM two days ago and the performance is much better, not a beast mode like everyone is saying but still better than the one I had before.
I think PDM altered smth in the formula and the newer batches are not that great, so I had to spray heavy to match the performance of other PDMs I have.
Problem is, I like the scent so most probably I’ll look for an older batch (they changed the box also so anything with PDM’ gold logo on the box should be from an older batch) or I’ll just get Oud for Greatness.
That’s good you got a better performance from buying directly from PDM because we know just how much they charge direct.
I had Haltane on one of my hand’s yesterday to compare to Oud Noir as I was doing a review and the longevity was amazing but the projection is only good for a few hours.
To me projection is more important than longevity on its own because what’s the use of a fragrance that lasts all day but by an hour or so nobody can smell it anymore except for yourself by looking like a lunatic to others as you walk around sniffing your wrists right up to your face all day 😂 and it’s always when it gets to the best smelling phase when they turn to a skin scent so you end up sniffing yourself more and more because it smells so good lol.
I couldn’t see the photos of the bottle, only the 3 pictures of the box. It doesn’t matter now though that you have got a better bottle from PDM. 🙂
