WOW!!! what an opening! This was the first Andy Tauer fragrance I ever tried and it will always leave a lasting impression on me. How leather can be so full on and strong yet elegant at the same time I don't know but Lonestar memories seems to manage it. This is a dirty, filthy, spiced leather. I picture a guy working on his motorbike, smoking a cigerette, leather jacket hanging in a garage surrounded by oily rags and grubby overalls. (Or the Cowboy imagery that it's based on fits fine too!) Smokiness galore, resinous too with the earthy, natural, root aroma. Again not one for beginners in the fragrance game a leather of the highest quality though and in perfumery terms a brave masterpiece. I'll have to try it again to make sure but I don't think it's something I'd wear. I love it & respect it but prefer L'air du desert Marocain because it speaks to me personally. Just knowing Lonestar memories exists fills me with joy!

Re-Review....Just adding some thoughts on this juice as I'm wearing my last sample today. I'm still 100% on board with it and although I noticed the likeness first time around I never realised how delicate and LDDM like the drydown is. It opens with smoke but Lonestar is not nearly as smokey as I first thought, that's no criticism in actual fact I like I like it more and more now. I think that might be me becoming more desensitized to smokey perfume after trying things like Profumum Roma Fumidus. Good sillage, projection and Longevity but I have L'air du desert Marocain and I don't think I need this one as well although I think it's just as good if not a little better.
