4 bottle his & hers collection

So my boss asked me to help him with a recommendation for him and his wife. Here’s what I was thinking:

1 signature scent for each to wear daily, 1 date night / special occasion bottle for each.

No designer LV/BDC popular garbage. Half the office wears this stuff and he asked me for a recommendation. That leads me to believe that he doesn’t like those scents.

$2k budget for 4 bottles all in is kind of where my mind was going.

Nothing too off the wall but nothing basic. I was wearing Mind Games Grand Master when this came about so I think his palette is going to be a little sweeter for the special occasion bottle, maybe a gourmand?

If you could build a perfect 4 bottles his & hers set, what would you pick and why?

Let’s talk moisturizers

I’m curious how many people moisturize prior to spraying. What is your preferred lotion? When do you apply? How long do you wait before spraying? Do you notice a difference in performance of your fragrances vs when you don’t moisturize?

Personally, I apply lotion immediately after showering, finish personal hygiene, get dressed, and then spray. So there’s about a 10-15 minute delay from applying lotion to spraying.

I do notice improvements to overall performance vs not using lotion. Sillage is more pronounced, and projection lasts longer by up to an hour on better frags.

What’s your experience with this?

QC - Vacheron Overseas

Just received my Vacheron from Li at Meixuan. This was delayed due to export customs seizure and delays through US customs. I’ve ordered from Li a lot, and this was the first hiccup. They replaced it for free and shipped the replacement within 2 weeks.

PPF - $800 shipped (pricy but includes rubber strap, box, & papers, as well as free insurance). I am unsure of movement.

It feels great, has decent weight (I don’t have a scale), and looks amazing in direct sunlight. Links seem
Well made and don’t have a lot of slop. That’s about as far as my QC abilities go.

QC Request

I know these are shitters, just wondering how bad they are.

Seller states factory is SGC. That’s as much as I know about them.

Is customs getting more difficult?

I’ve placed multiple orders with this supplier in the past with no issues. But this purchase was initially rejected by Chinese export customs, the seller replaced it and reshipped it. Now it’s missed delivery twice (initially Thursday, then today) with the same shipment exception.

Has anyone experienced this before?
