To get high, most commonly by means of marijuana. Trees is a common slang name for marijuana. When you climb a tree, you're getting higher in elevation than when you were on the ground. Therefore climbing trees refers to getting high off of trees.
Hey I just got an eighth of some haze, want to go climbing trees?

About the New G4Z Stockingfoot
Why Simms Waders?
Why GORE-TEX®?
- Product Care
GORE-TEX® Wader Care:
The #1 tip to prolonging the life of a wader is drying your waders. It is important to dry your waders out after each use. We recommend drying the inside first (if damp) and then the outside. When drying the outside you can pull your gravel guards up until the feet are dry and then flip them down to dry the rest of the wader
Washing - Use a front load machine or hand wash. Use cold water and normal detergent that does not contain bleach. Once you have washed the waders make sure you dry them properly start by drying the inside first. Never put your waders in the dryer, the heat will adversely affect the seam tape on your waders and will void your warranty.
Fit - We offer more sizes than anyone, a good fit goes a long way to extending the life of your wader. Make it clear that people should use their exact measurements as we have already provided extra room for layering and movement.
General Care - Do not store inside your car for long periods of time excess heat will damage your waders.
Use A Mat - Always put your waders on using a protective mat to shield the neoprene feet from rocks. The Headwaters gear bag for example has a pull out mat that works great for this.
Proper Layering - Do not wear jeans under your waders. Jeans are highly abrasive wearing on your waders from the inside out. More importantly jeans and sweatpants do not transfer moisture away from the body. Use proper layering (to view our layering collection, go here). Using layers such as these will help wick moisture away from your body and assist in the waders ability to breathe.
Stains - most stain removers will work fine on our waders. As long as the stain remover does not contain bleach you should be o.k.
- Technology
GORE-TEX® PRO SHELL outerwear is waterproof, exceptionally lightweight and offers the ultimate in breathability, durability and extended comfort. Constructed with a woven backer, GORE-TEX® Pro Shell garments slide easily over other layers and offer exceptional tear strength and internal abrasion-resistance.
Proudly made in the United States of America. Click here to see more of Simms USA-made products.
YKK's AQUASEAL® is a light weight waterproof zipper. Combining Vislon® techonology with a seal in between the zipper elements, AQUASEAL® allows easy and smooth operation with 100% protection against the elements.

Overall perfect fit. LOVE the zipper. Bomber construction. Did I mention the zipper? aside for the obvious advantage when nature calls - makes getting into them so much easier. Pricy but worth every penny.(Posted on 9/30/14)
- The toughest of though Review by Trout hunter
Overall I purchased the the Simms G4Z waders earlier this summer. Today was my first day on the water with them. They exceed my expectations in every way. Extremely worm, though as nails, and all around confurt.
Most of my other fishing equitement is made by Simms.
All Simms products are number 1 in my fish gear arsenal.(Posted on 8/31/14)
- Amazing Review by Aaron
Overall The best out there.(Posted on 1/11/14)
- Best waders on earth. Review by Joel
Overall I guide from a whitewater raft and do many hike-in days. From days sliding in and out of the raft to days spent bushwacking through the BC wilderness these waders have not failed.
(Posted on 11/13/13)
- Alaska Tough Waders. Be American. Buy American. Review by Christopher Tobias
Overall Yes, you can bust brush in the back country wearing any cheap old pair of waders, but how many of those waders will be hole free when you jump in the water?
I put at least five to seven miles, a week, of Alaska brush busting abuse on my G4Z's and they haven't given up yet. Not only do they hold up to the abuse, but they wick away the moisture and leave you comfortable.
They are hands down the best and toughest waders I own. I would highly recommend any of the G3 or G4 series of waders if you're a serious fisherman looking for serious gear than can handle what you throw at it. Plus, they're made here in America!(Posted on 8/31/13)
- Untouchable Review by Matt
Overall Best waders in the business. Nothing else needs to be said.(Posted on 8/30/13)
- Amazing Review by ACfish
Overall Couldn't be better.(Posted on 8/21/13)
- Very nice! Review by Slabb Master
Overall I just got this wader and have yet to use it . I'ved tried it on at home with my new guide boot and new G4 jacket and man do I look like a pro. The fit is perfect, I can't wait to put it to use. Here in Washington we get slot of rain and you need the best and Simms is it.(Posted on 8/8/13)
- As Advertised Review by Jesse
Overall I have long believed that you get what you pay for. The G4Z is the epitome of that thinking. Designed to meet the demands of those hardest on their equipment., the G4Z is by far the best wader I have ever used. Both in comfort and most importantly durability. I have gotten the longest out of my G4Zs as any wader I have owned. The zipper is great for relief as well as allowing them to air out(a great feature for those who spend day after day in them), and easy on and off. The fit is good for me. I have strip the exterior accessories off, so I have no issue with them. Pockets are well placed and functional. You won't be disappointed.(Posted on 7/9/13)
- G4Z's are the best, hands down Review by Mark
Overall I can literally destroy anything and after doing just that with mid-grade waders, I opted for the G4Z's. Other than the comfort and ease of use, these things are probably the strongest I've seen. I don't guide but I do spend over 200 days a year on the water, so I think I put these through the ringer with the best of them.
I've fished in 20 below temps and never once felt the cold of the water, with just sweat pants underneath. Job well done in that department!
If you do find a way to puncture these waders, as I did with falling in a ditch, their customer support is better than the waders. I had my waders back in nine days with no questions asked.(Posted on 3/7/13)

Tax liability for income earned overseas by Americans has been part of the U.S. tax system since the federal income tax was first introduced in 1861. Since 2009, the United States has witnessed a rise in citizenship renunciation, especially among the affluent.

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION Horace Hop Wallop headed West a broken man. For it was a certain Miss LuLubelle Lager that had left him, thirsting for more. Drawn by wild tales of the riches of the gold mines, Hop pressed on westward. His last nickel spent on a prospecting pan, Hops hunger and thirst got the best of him. Two fistfuls o barley and three of some wild and wayward hops tossed in the pan with some clear water was to be his meal. But sleep overcame him and he woke to a bubbling, cacophonous concoction. Overjoyed with the beautiful ale that he had made, Hop realized the secret of the green gold he had discovered in those fresh hops. Celebrated far and wide, Hop Wallop lives on in this vivid ale with his words, "hoppiness is happiness." As our annual homage to the fresh hop harvest, Hop Wallop is a fragrant experience that delights the tastebuds. Pure gold of color, this ale offers its heady bounty of hops to the adventurous of taste. Bold, bracing and surprisingly refreshing for a strong (8.5% a.b.v.) ale, Hop Wallop lives up to its name and legacy.

Vermont's rattlesnakes face new, unexpected threatsBy Madeline Bodin | October 13,2013
Searching for his reading glasses, Doug Blodgett, a biologist with the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department, does not look like a man on a mission. Does it have a pre-button? he asks, leaning closer to a small snake hidden behind a rock.
Jim Wilson, an amateur herpetologist who is Blodgetts assistant on this day in late September, also has a pair of reading glasses perched on his nose. Both men agree that theres a pre-button at the end of the snakes tail, which is the start of this snakes telltale rattle.
Thats a neonate, Wilson says, referring to a newborn snake that is less than 10 days old and has never shed its skin.
Blodgetts mission is to rehabilitate the reputation of the timber rattlesnake in Vermont a difficult task, considering that Vermont offered a bounty on its rattlesnakes as recently as 1971.
Even bats have more friends than snakes, he says.
Vermonts rattlesnakes could use a friend. Western Rutland County is home to the northernmost population of the timber rattlesnake, one of 33 species of rattlesnakes native to North America.
Maine already lost theirs, Blodgett says of another northern timber rattlesnake population. Rhode Islands are already lost. New Hampshires are in deep trouble. Massachusetts still has a few.
Because of decades of habitat loss, bounty hunting and capture for the pet trade, timber rattlesnakes are an endangered species in Vermont. Western Rutland County is the only place they are found in the state. Blodgett cant say exactly how many rattlesnakes remain in Vermont. His best estimate is several hundred.
Life is tough for rattlesnakes so far north. In Vermont they may spend seven months of the year hibernating deep inside rock crevices. These hibernation sites are protected by The Nature Conservancy. But until recently little has been known of their summer whereabouts.
Two years ago, Blod-gett joined with The Orianne Society, a Georgia-based organization that conserves snakes, to study the Vermont rattlesnakes summer travels. The scientists captured 144 snakes and implanted passive integrated transponder tags in 22 of them. They also collected DNA samples.
They then tracked the tagged snakes, noting where the snakes were on the landscape and when.
What they found was surprising. Rather than wandering aimlessly, snakes seem to know where they are going.
Their movements are direct and purposeful, Blodgett says. Four months after they left their hibernation sites, the snakes returned using the same path.
On average, the snakes traveled about two miles from their hibernation sites.
The study has continued, and on this fall day Wilson readies the five-gallon bucket he has carried to the site while Blodgett wields a long metal grabber. With a gentle scooping motion, Blodgett moves the baby snake from behind the rock into the bucket.
The snake appears content in the bucket as Blodgett observes it for several minutes. Then he turns his back on the snake and the bucket, and records his observations in a small notebook.
Blodgett does not ignore the dangers rattlesnakes pose. He wears protective gaiters to protect his legs against bites and is careful to never put his hands on the ground, even on steep slopes with loose rocks.
Before heading into rattlesnake territory, he reviewed the emergency procedure with Wilson. In case of a bite, the nearest antivenin, or anti-toxin to venom, is at a hospital in Glens Falls, N.Y.. A man was bitten by a rattlesnake in 2010, the first time that had happened in over 50 years. The man recovered.
Mostly Blodgett emphasizes how shy and tolerant rattlesnakes are. They will do anything to avoid confrontation, he says.
The snakes warm and fuzzy side, metaphorically speaking, doesnt end there.
Rattlesnakes are good mothers, Blodgett says.
They bear their young alive and stay with them through their first few weeks of life. After a baby snake sheds for the first time, mother and children part ways, each trying to capture at least one meal of a mouse, vole or chipmunk before they begin hibernating.
A rattlesnake has about a 50 percent chance of surviving its first year, Blodgett says. The long-term odds may be worse for Vermont snakes because of two new threats discovered in this study.
One is a genetic bottleneck. Despite the fact that the Vermont population includes two distinct color phases some snakes have a yellow background to their scale patterns, while others have a black background the snakes have lower than expected genetic diversity.
The second threat was noted when deformities from a fungal infection were found on some of the snakes. This fungus, which has killed snakes in the Midwest, doesnt seem to be as lethal in the Vermont snakes, Blodgett says. But the fungus has been confirmed in rattlesnakes in Vermont and is suspected in garter snakes and Eastern rat snakes.
The latest phase of Blodgetts study has two goals. The first is DNA testing of the snake fungus. One of Blodgetts and Wilsons tasks for the day is to collect scale samples from any snake they find that appears to have a fungal infection, so that the funguss DNA can be tested. The snake in the bucket appears sleek and healthy, however.
The other goal is to find out more about the rattlesnakes reproduction and survival. This snakes existence is proof that at least one litter of rattlesnakes was born in Vermont this year, but Blodgett says that thats not enough information for any meaningful conclusions.
With the snakes role in the study completed, Blodgett tips the bucket to set it free. The snake slithers into the dappled shade of an oak tree and disappears against a background of leaves and rocks.
Blodgett watches it go. Knowing the long odds the young snake faces, he calls after it, Hope to see you next year.

Whether you visit for an afternoon or stay a few days, you will leave Lake Le-Aqua-Na State Recreation Area with many happy memories. Located in Stephenson County just west of Route 73 on Lake Road, the park is 6 miles south of the Illinois-Wisconsin state line and 3 miles north of Lena.
Highlighted by a 40-acre lake and all the recreational opportunities there, the park also offers multi-use trails, picnic areas, and RV, tent, equestrian and youth group campgrounds.
Developed as part of a statewide plan to provide Illinois citizens with recreational opportunities close to home, the park was started with a land acquisition program in 1948 and dedicated as a 715-acre state recreation area 10 years later.
Lake Le-Aqua-Nas name is the result of a contest sponsored by the Stephenson County Sportmans Club, one of the parks many sponsors. The name is a combination of the town of Lena and the Latin word for water, aqua.
Natural Features
Oak, hickory, walnut and other hardwood trees are in abundance, along with large tracts of pine plantation. A good variety of woodland wildflowers, including Dutchmans breeches, bloodroot and bluebells, cover the ground in the spring and early summer. Squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits and other small animals are often seen in the wooded areas, and deer also are frequently sighted.
Observant visitors might catch a glimpse of a badger. For many years, Lake Le-Aqua-Na was the only state recreation area where badgers could be seen. They have begun to populate other state recreation areas and are becoming less rare.
Three engagements of the Black Hawk War took place within a few miles of the park, and a minor skirmish occurred near the park in the mid-1800s. A year after the war ended, the first permanent settler in Stephenson County, William Waddams, built a home just west of the current park site, along a trail that was to become the principal east-west route across northern Illinois for stagecoach and early automobile traffic. A small community was established and extended east into the park site.
The Lake
A typical Midwestern manmade lake, the water is moderately clear due to good watershed practices and the use of an axial-flow destratifier that mixes the lake water to keep oxygen levels high at all depths. Lake Le-Aqua-Na is one of only a few lakes in Illinois to use this device.
Trails | MAP
Whether you enjoy hiking, horseback riding or cross-country skiing, 8.5 miles of marked trails include something for everyone. Pets are welcome to enjoy the trails with you, but must be kept on their leashes.
Winter Sports
Ice-fishing, sledding and cross-country skiing are popular attractions at Lake Le-Aqua-Na during the winter months, but there are no trails or facilities for snowmobiling. All ice activities should be limited to areas away from the lakes destratifier unit, where open water and thin ice make these activities less safe.
Concessions - Concession stand is currently closed until a new concessionaire can be found.
Everything from canoes and paddleboats to food is available at a conveniently located concession stand. The concession is open May 1 through Sept. 15.
Completed in 1956, the lake provides fishing, boating and a swimming beach.Bring your own boat and enjoy the beauty of the lake's 1.4 miles of wooded shoreline. A launching ramp is located adjacent to the concession stand. Only electric motors are allowed.
Periodic stockings of walleye, northern pike and channel catfish compliment the lakes self-sustaining largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie and bullhead populations. Brush piles and fish cribs are located throughout the lake and enhance habitat for the fish population. To keep the supply abundant, however, regulations governing catch limits and sizes are strictly enforced.
An accessible fishing pier is located near the swimming beach.
A small beach, particularly suited to children, is open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. from Memorial Day through Labor Day. No lifeguards in attendance so swimming is at your own risk. Alcohol is strictly prohibited.
Whether you are planning a picnic for two, have invited the whole family, or even the whole neighborhood, Lake Le-Aqua-Na has a picnic site to suit your needs. All sites include tables and grills. For those who like to plan ahead, two picnic shelters with electricity may be reserved in advance.
Camping | Youth Group Reservation Form
RV, tent, equestrian and youth group campers are all accommodated in the various campgrounds. Few sites are secluded, with the majority open and spacious with adequate shade available on most.
A large number of electric sites with water are conveniently located throughout the campgrounds. While the RV campground is open year-round, the shower building with flush toilets and the trailer dump station are operational only from May 1 - November 1. To make reservations for the camground, go to www.reserveamerica.com
The equestrian campground has a shelter, vault toilets and a hand pump for water. Access to the area is on county roads that border the park, not the main park entrance. Contact the park office prior to your equestrian outing as the campgrounds and trail may be closed due to wet conditions.
Camping at Lake Le-Aqua-Na is a very relaxed, family-oriented experience. The following regulations apply:
1. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted at any time in the campgrounds. 2. Access to the campground is prohibited after 10 p.m., except for previously registered campers. 3. You must have a camping unit, establish camp and obtain a permit upon arrival. You may not buy additional permits in advance in an attempt to save a campsite for friends arriving later. 4. While pets are very important to your camping experience, it is your responsibility to leash them at all times, pick up their waste and attend to them at all times. Many campers are not pet owners and their camping experience is greatly diminished if your pet is noisy. Please consider kenneling your pet if it may disturb others.
A dove hunt and youth hunt are available. For more information please see the hunter fact sheet

Recent Ascender Reviews
Singing Rock Footer Ascender Sling
The Singing Rock Footer Ascender Sling is a quality, adjustable foot tape that allows those using a Frog ascending system to set the right length for climbing rope. As with all Sing Rock equipment I have used, I find it reasonably priced and well worth considering. At the heart of a "Frog" rope ascension system is a foot ascender, with its accompanying foot lanyard. The foot ascender has two lines coming off of it. The first, is the life supporting lanyard that attaches to the harness. The second… Full review
Petzl Shunt
Unnecessary, "psychological" backup. I was terrified of rappelling and ascending ropes 14 years ago. So I bought the Shunt as a "back up" in case I messed up a rappel. The Shunt connects from your harness to the rope above your rappel device. To descend, you must use your non-dominate hand to hold open the cam. If you let go, the cam slams shut, pinching the rope and halting your descent. To that end, this device works fine. HOWEVER, human nature in a fall is to grab hold and squeeze tighter. In… Full review
Singing Rock Puller Chest Ascender Harness
An important part of any ascension system, the Singing Rock Puller Chest Harness is well-made and dependable. I have owned several of these units, retiring them as age requires. They are still available in climbing stores and well worth the few bucks. Singing Rock is a great company, and this is a great item to use with a Frog Ascension System. The harness keeps your chest ascender (I prefer Petzl's Croll) in place on a climb. Without it, a climber would risk the ascender disconnecting from the… Full review
Petzl Pantin
Does what it is supposed to do quite well. I have been using the Patin for years as a supplement to my Frog Ascension. Normally, when you start out ascending a rope, you have to pinch the rope between your feet to get started. This is because, until you get a good 10' off the ground, there is not enough weight on the rope to automatically pull it through the ascenders. Pinching the rope with construction boots on can be a task, and a climber can expend a lot of energy in the initial ascent. The… Full review
Petzl Ascension
The Petzl Ascension is the only foot ascender on the market worth looking at. Although the price is a bit higher, I have known cavers who regretted trying cheaper alternatives. If you are new to rope work, Petzl is the brand to buy...period! So, I have said the same thing on my Petzl Croll review, but in a "Frog" ascending system, the Croll and Ascension are both critical components. You can't safely have one without the other. The Petzl Ascention is the only foot ascender I've ever used for caving. Full review
Petzl Croll
As a component in rope ascending, the Petzl Croll continues to be the best on the market. It is easy to use, even while wearing gloves. It holds true on wet, gritty rope. I have trusted my life to this item numerous times and will continue to do so. Petzl's ascenders are the only ones I've ever used for caving. They work right every time. I can set and remove them while wearing gloves. I literally have trusted my life with them scores of times. Petzl tends to be a bit pricier than other other brands,… Full review
Petzl Ascension
I got the Petzl Ascension ascender to replace my prussik cords for jugging fixed lines. In my search, I tried out numerous types of ascending devices such as the Black Diamond nForce and the Petzl Tibloc, but the Ascension stood out as the best piece for the job. I picked the left handed version so that I switch from using the "double ascender" method of jugging to the ascender/grigri method when I got enough money to guy the grigri. I also carry it along in case I need to perform a self rescue. Full review
Petzl Tibloc
I first saw this device in a climbing mag. As a rescue tech, I/we are always looking to try out new ideas, especially when they are this inexpensive and LIGHT! The Tibloc can be used as an emergency ascender on single rope up to 11mm (I've used it on 12mm with no probs.) and also as a makeshift locking pulley for hauling systems like the Z-rig. Works best with an oval or HMS carabiner with a round body. Plus side: Super simple, can't be removed from rope unless the attaching biner is removed also,… Full review

Product Technologies:
- QuietMode™: Maintaining sanity in a busy kitchen can often be a challenge, and the noise pollution generated by range hood ventilation never helps. This is why Kobe has introduced QuietMode™. Operating at 300 CFM, this feature allows for a reduced sound level of 40 decibels (1.0 sone), allowing you to efficiently vent your kitchen while still being able to hold a conversation. In comparison, most other hoods operate at between six to eight times that sound level at a comparable CFM level, making Kobe range hoods some of the most quietly effective range hoods on the market.
- Time Delay Controls: Kobe's innovative Time Delay System offers you unparalleled control over your cooktop ventilation. Featuring a 10-second standby startup, a 30-second delay shutoff (1 push On/Off), and an immediate shutdown (2 push On/Off), vent your kitchen for the exact amount of time you need to, and not a second more. Set your time delay and leave the kitchen with the confidence of knowing the air will be fresh and clean when you return.
- Multi Exhaust Venting: Being able to choose how to vent your range hood can make all the difference on where you are able to install it. With Kobe's revolutionary four-option exhaust duct system, you have your choice of vertical (top) ducting at a 6" round or 3-1/4" x 10" or horizontal (rear) ducting at 3-1/4" x 10", allowing you the versatility to install your range hood wherever you need it.
- ECO Mode: Kobe's ECO function helps you to maintain a cleaner breathing environment within your home. By turning on your range hood fan at it's lowest setting for 10 minutes every hour, your kitchen can remain clear of microscopic contaminants and excess moisture 24 hours a day. Breathe cleaner, healthier air without needing to worry about any additional ventilation equipment.

Insanely expensive, but even though I disliked A Men and Pure Havane, I really like pure malt because of the warm, brown, smoky-ness I get out of it. Or maybe its just because I wore my sample of it on vacation, in a beautiful location
Thread: Pure Malt |
It's the kind of scent that I just always want to reach for but know I have other fragrances to use.
Insanely expensive, but even though I disliked A Men and Pure Havane, I really like pure malt because of the warm, brown, smoky-ness I get out of it. Or maybe its just because I wore my sample of it on vacation, in a beautiful location
This is my first blind buy. In the beginning I did not like it. Now I started to appreciate the scent. It is good IMO but not the best gourmand.
It's a great scent no doubt, but keep in mind that the only reason it's so expensive right now is because of supply and demand. Re-sellers are the ones selling it for $100+ on eBay, the last time it was available on TM's website it was $70, a very reasonable price for this fragrance IMO.
i still dont get it
Never understood the hype about this one either. But then I am not into gourmands, most of them are combination of sickly sweetness and sratchy synthetic woody amber to me, with the exception of Guerlain L'Instant EDP.
I spent to much, honestly, for Pure Malt on ebay (I'll let you wonder how much), but I'm glad I did. If it is ever re-released I will gladly purchase another bottle at retail just to have a backup. I just love the smell and so does my wife. For the record, I am not a big fan of original A*Men, but Pure Malt is just great. I do like Pure Haven as well, but it doesn't last as long on me. Thinking back, the first smell of Pure Malt I just thought it was ok, but seems like every time I wear it I like it more and more.
Pure malt is THE most over rated scent. Hell is had its own subsection in the forums. I won't say it's a bad fragrance because it's not. I owned if for a while and used and liked it but at the end of the day it was A Man with some berries and whiskey added to it. I think for me the main problem I had was I HATED the original A Men and the only reason I bought it was to see what the fuss was about. But it left me feeling slightly...underwhelmed
I think it's pretty good myself. I don't hype it, but I can see why some might. Like a few others here, it was one of the scents that jump started my fragrance hobby.
imo youtube and fragrance site, over-hype TM frags like crazy.
I like it and was gaga over it for a first few months but hardly find oportunity to wear it nowdays (because I rarely party and IMO this is purpose of Pure Malt) so I sold all my backup bottles. It may be overhyped but is still one of best (if not best) designer fragrances in last 3 years.

I love it. There's a time deep in the drydown where I'll catch a whiff of it here and there, it's the perfect sweet whisky/caramel/patchouli blend, it just makes me smile to smell it on a cold day. That said, it is very much over-hyped. Though lately the hype machine has been shifting to L'Instant Extreme and Dior Homme Intense.
The ebay prices are not related only to the hype, but also the limited and dwindling supply of this fragrance.
My top 5: Sea Mist; Minnow; Crab, tiger, and almonds; Semprini; Rancid Polecat N° 2
It is a unique scent that has gotten way too much attention. I still think Pure Havane is the best flanker from TM.
It has the most realistic slut-in-a-club-breath accord that is both fascinating to me and utterly unwearable.
While I have no official date whatsoever on the re-releasing of PM and other flankers, I can recommend you send an email to [email protected] with my name and mailing address and they will actually add you to their waiting list for the Pure Collection.
OT, I've yet to pick up a sample of Pure Malt or Pure Coffee though I do plan on it. Pure Havane I purchased because I was able to test it in Macy's when it was still available and I loved it. Still curious if Pure Malt would have the same effect. Any BNers willing to send a tiny sample?
After all the positive reviews I took the gamble and bought Pure Malt as a blind-buy. I already own Pure Havane and A*Men Classic. It smells terrific but I am utterly disappointed in the longevity and projection of Pure Malt. After one hour or so it is virtually non-detectable anymore and just very close to the skin. That is just unacceptable. Clearly the weakest scent of the whole Pure-line in my opinion.
Can't understand all the rave reviews on here as the quality of Pure Malt is below par.
Where the A*Men classic last 10-12 hours with huge projection, Pure Havane lasts about 4 hours and Pure Malt only 1 - 2 hours with little to no projection after an hour.
Utterly disappointed.
Do you have the same experience?

Thankfully have no longevity problems with Pure Malt.
I don't have any problems either. Did you get it from a reliable source??
I get at least 8 hours with my Pure Malt. In fact, all the flankers last at least 8 hours on me. The original definitely has the best longevity. Olfactory fatigue perhaps?

Are you sure this isn't olfactory fatigue? There is just no way Pure Malt should be gone in an hour or two. It's barely past the initial stage at that point and should last at least two more hours, if not many more.
And yes, this is one of the most overhyped fragrances in history. Personally, I find it average -- not a bad scent, but not bottle worthy. Of course, I find the original A*Men unwearable, so factor that into your consideration of my opinion.
Current Top Five:
1. Creed Green Irish Tweed
2. Tom Ford Neroli Portofino
3. Hermes Concentre d'Orange Verte
4. Bond No. 9 New Haarlem
5. Creed Original Vetiver
This lasts a little longer that PH for me, and about the same as Amen, PC is the shortest lasting. And out of all of them it smells the best to me.
Seriously, where are you guys still buying Pure Malt from?
Is it purely from ebay/other basenoters?
Got mine on ebay for a decent price. Wait until the last second and don't give them a chance to rebid.
Same here -- got it on Ebay. I think the price I paid was about eighty or ninety dollars. I haven't seen any reports of Pure Malt forgeries -- the bottle is very unique and probably very expensive to try to knock off.
Current Top Five:
1. Creed Green Irish Tweed

5. Creed Original Vetiver
I blind bought PM from a basenote member who ordered it direct from Mugler. I was interested in PM from owning Pure Havane. I find that PH and PM are very much alike. I do find Pure Havane to be a powerhouse compared to Pure Malt. I know others will dissagree, but I've got to be honest with my impression. I feel PM to be a lighter version than PH, which contradicts what others have said on a few threads; but is in agreement with some others. I feel their top notes are very very simular except that touch of tobacco in PH, and it's towards the latter part of the middle that PH and PM become even more alike with PH just being stronger. I find as the OP that it's longevity is not up to par. However, I really do enjoy PM. The one thing it reveals to me that PH does not is an ever slight floral, or is it amber? I dont know, so go ahead and call me crazy, but I pick up a pretty little touch of something in the booziness which I enjoy; it just strikes me as floral. However, to me Pure Havane should have got the hype over PM due to the attributes of having more depth, stamina, projection and pressence througout a long wear, along with delivering such an amazing scent throughout the full wear, easily 10 hours for me. I guess if I owned PM first, I would have picked up PH. But if I had smelled PM, I would have passed since already owning PH. Reguardless, I'm glad to have both.
I get more than 10 hours with 2-3 sprays, even during the winter.
My brother is a Pure Malt FANATIC. He has amassed several full bottles and has a large box of wrapped official sample packs. There is a positively tremendous batch variation across the batches. He has full bottles of the first two batches (I could get batch codes, but not tonight. PM me if interested.) and he had me try them out. The first batch has a much sweeter boozy base and lasts way longer, while the second is far drier and almost woody. The first batch has a more distinct berry in the top notes as well, while the second is more believably whiskey. Surprisingly, he favors the second batch, although it lasts a couple of hours less than the original batch. Either way, they both last waaaaaaayyyyyyy longer on me than you mentioned, and fragrances don't usually last too well on me. Perhaps your fragrance is damaged in some way.
These are allegedly aged in used oak whiskey casks, which could easily explain the variation. Very cool! This is one instance where I think it's rather okay to have wild batch variations in perfume; that's part of the concept.
Liked it, and didn't have any of your problems, but not sure I would by a full bottle
didnt know about batch issues... but both my pure malts last forever
Pure Malt will last a long time for designer but I did get olfactory fatigue after three or so hours. Others can still smell it on you after the three hours of projection and scillage but it does become a skin scent for the drydown.
My current top ten:
1. Spice and Wood
2. Tonka Imperiale
3. Dior Homme
4. Pure Malt
5. Oud Wood
6. Ambre Nuit
7. L'air Du Desert Marocain
8. Noir de Noir
9. Apple Brandy
10.Straight to Heaven
I'm disappointed that you're disappointed.
Could still smell whiffs of it on my wrists after (24 hours + shower) .
Projection is amazing on my skin as well .
Sorry about your situation ....
Hypocrites will always be a thorn in my back....and my middle finger will always be the best remedy.....
This is news to me. I get minimum 8 hours out of this from two sprays. If I hit my clothes by accident this can and will linger for 4+ days.
Sounds like you got a dodgy batch.
Never had a single longevity problem with this one. 10 hours minimum at least. It's funny, when Pure Havane first came out I remember seeing a few posters saying similarly that it lasted for about an hour. I thought the same thing when I first used it too. Olfactory fatigue, plain and simple.
Give it a break, and come back to it in a week or so. Sooner or later you'll realize that it's probably lasting a lot longer than you think it is.
Sorry man but you probably bought watered down fake. PM on me lasts 10+ hours.

That doesn't sound like Pure Malt. Can smell mine the following day, no problem. Ladies absolutely love this one, had plenty of them push their nose near my neck to get a closer sniff. It's a winner.
Didn't have longevity problem but was hugely disappointed with fragrance after all hype he received.
Right now I think that I have all the fragrances that I want.
Reading all the replies and references to the past I have to concluded it must be from a underwhelming badge. But then again, seems unlikely to me that in these modern days there can be a great variation in batches. It is a very computerized automic filling process these days with all ingredients standardized. If it would have been a manual process this would be different.
I own lots a fragrances and never wear a scent more frequent than maybe once every 2 weeks. Why does TV of Tom Ford or Black Afgano last a day on me. Terres d Hermes gives met 6-8 hours. Same goes for Aqua di Parma Essenza. Could it still be olfactory fatigue then for just PM? Odd.
I can't beleive it is a fake bottle as it was sealed, boxed, documentation inside, etc and looked very genuin. Very hard to fake the whole set in my opinion. And seems to be very short in supply.
Maybe I am just unlucky and I had too high hopes. Very frustrating as it smells great but can't see myself reapplying it every hour. Sigh
It is possible that just THIS particular frag is fatiguing your nose. I've experienced that quite a few times. I also highly doubt that it's fake.
Never heard of a fake Terry Muigler anything. I wore Pure Havanne yesterday and got over 12 hours out of it till I had to shower. So I would be guessing olfactory overload or it may be your skin. Some things on me go sour so it could just be a chance happening. I'm sure it won't take long to sell on here or find a swap. I was thinking of trying to find a bottle myself.
I dont get much noticeable scent from PM either. Let's say on a scale of 1 to 10 in term of longevity, A*Men got a 10, Pure Malt only gets 4 and Pure Coffee would be just 2, at least to me.
Yeah I don't know how to feel about my Pure Malt as well. Got it from ebay, came in a white box instead of that fancy one that I always see advertised (though the seller is extremely highly regarded). The opening smell is fantastic but anything after is very faint to my nose I don't know why.
Perhaps this particular fragrance goes off rather easily; I seriously doubt the existence of fake Pure Malt. Either way, I'm baffled the OP's experience is what he says. Maybe it's a very new batch?
Pure malt lasts and lasts on my skin. I doubt as well that it's worth to be faked, it's too rare.
I have to say that at first I didn't get the strength 100%, but now even one drop on my skin is super powerful and I can tell for hours it's definitely there and going strong.
decant sales:
Crystal Flacon
I don't have any problems on PM,Are u you sure about this?Should try again? I know it is EDT frag and PM's performance is really enough for me.But you should look first as a good and unique scent. :|
So i won a bid on ebay for a BNIB still sealed pure malt. I cant wait to get this. I paid a heavy amount for it so i hope its worth it
Hope you're happy with it, i certainly was. Has a great opening and niche-like quality. Excellent longetivity and projection. Always gets me compliments from the fairer sex. Enjoy!
I paid $177 for it, for a sealed box! Yea i hope i like it. Even if i dont i can resell it an get my money back
Definitely, you'll love it when you first buy it and you'll love it even more when you mature and learn a little bit more about frags. PS show some love, where you getting that from?

When the Malt buzz starts to fade, they will release a few more bottles for ten minutes on their website and the buzz will be up and running again for several weeks.

I bought the tires because of the reviews. They were great up until there was about 25% tread left. Then of course I could feel every bump and found myself with two hands on the wheel most of the time. The tires were rated 65,000 but I got about 45,000, and now measuring the tread that is left is between 0 and 3. So time for new tires, but different ones. I am trying the Firestone LE-2. I rated the tire a 3 in the snow because we don't have any snow here in San Diego. Don't hate!

We honor the fitment.
If your vehicle information is present on your order, we will verify fitment to qualify you for the 100% Fitment Gaurantee. If your order arrives and the tires or wheels do not fit your vehicle, we will honor an exchange and pay for freight for the return and new set. If there are concerns about your order we will contact you about potential fitment issues.
Our Fitment Gaurantee applies to orders that come with full vehicle information (Year, Make Model, Sub-Model). If you are confident that the vehicle information is not necessary for your order, we will proceed without checking fitment. However, in the event there is a fitment issue with your order, we will honor a return/exchange, as per our return / refund policy. You will be responsible for freight charges (both ways).
