First sprays of Carnal Flower in probably three months. Absolutely divine, and it’s almost annoying that I’ve wanted a white floral that lasted longer for ages, and this does, but it’s so powerful it’s too much for me to wear. It’s still elegant and beautiful and one of the best from the line I’ve tried, but I wish it was a bit more tame.

>>15755112
Has anyone tried this?
I heard it is quite attractive to women.

>>15755295
Women aren’t attractive, anon. Even the Ancients knew that the higher and superior form of love was that between men.

I've got bad feelings about this thread but let's see how it goes.

btw op you should really make the op picture perfume related instead of a shitposting magnet.

>>15755429
I’ll tell you exactly what’s going on: the sperg makes an obvious sperg thread, then when the thread predictably goes badly, he’s gonna come in and say “see? I made a thread with a different kind of OP pic and you all assumed it would be bad and it was, so YOU’RE the problem!”. He keeps trying to push this conspiracy narrative.

Just ordered the Papillon discovery set. My grandma wants to buy it for me for Christmas so that’s lovely. I won’t be receiving it until Christmas of course but it’ll be worth the wait.

>>15755525
It's almost like some somewhere has a problem with people who like smelly water.
He's probably the kinda sperg who would use pronouns in a bio then call you "hateful" for using a word "offensively" even just one time even if it was a joke or because you just don't see why people should get upset over words.

Well thanks for your great contribution guys

how do you guys feel about fruity perfumes?

>>15755723
It really depends on what surrounds them. As far as I’m aware I’m one of two people here that has tried (and adores) Le Parfum de Therese. It has a very fruity opening but never becomes overwhelming or cloying. A real masterpiece.

What do you think of them?

>>15755723
I’ve been traumatized ever since I had to enter Victoria’s Secret. Hard pass unless I get a good recc

>>15755756
I like Mariah Carey Lollipop bling in ribbon and the Paris Hilton perfume in the pic I posted. These are the only 2 that compliment my natural scent well. I've gotten so many compliments when wearing them.

People always have strong opinions on fruity perfumes so that's why i was just wondering :)

>>15755723
Auphorie Miyako and OG bat are great

>>15755166

>>15755800
Ain't those 2 too flowery/fruity/faggy?
>Maybe something by John Varvatos if you up the edginess of your outfit a bit
Which one? It's winter so I'm wearing a leather jacket everyday and I'll start wearing turtlenecks under it soon
Also, I'll put here my personality again cuz I have the feeling that those are a lil bit softboyish fragrances and I'm a bad mofo

How's the longevity on Ultra Male? Are the discontinuation rumors legitimate?

>>15755827
Fuck, you've been posting every thread and seem no closer to knowing what the fuck you're doing with frags. Either get a sample of the suggestions or use your fucking head and make a decision, you knob.

>>15755832
I bought a bottle 18 months ago and it lasts forever. I really like the drydown, but fuck me the opening is sweet.

>>15755827
If you don't think flowery notes are a good match, then what notes are of interest to you? Look for fragrances with those notes and start there. But be warned, if you're new to this you probably won't know what you like based purely on your mind's idea of that note. There are loads of "badass" fragrances with fruits and flowers in their ingredients. What matters is the vibe they give off when combined with everything else. Get some samples, try them on skin, see how they perform and evolve over a few hours, then assess what you liked and didn't like. Research further based on that.

>>15755827
No you’re not. I’d put you down with one punch. Believe it.

>>15755832
I sure hope so. Won’t miss smelling that shit on every fuccboi.

I dont have a sense of smell, whats a objectively good cologne to wear for casual events? I wash with bar soap and wear deodorant. I've been told I smell clean like the laundry detergent i use when I ask my friends what I smell like.

>>15755947
Acqua Di Parma Colonia (or Colonia Essenza) Mugler Cologne, Prada L’Homme. They fit the clean vibe. Maybe Tom Ford Grey Vetiver too.

>>15755944
Most fuccbois wear Eros or some walmart shit.

All good recommendations. I'd add Dior Eau Sauvage too, you can't go wrong with such a classic

Got the aventus/ viw mashup and it’s quite nice, better than expected and quite versatile

Aventus is the now-stereotypical power move and it's fruity as fuck

fragrantica, basenotes, or parfumo?

>>15756219
You posted this already, schizo.

Bijan has been in my rotation for a couple of weeks now and I must say I love this. The opening gives sleazy 80s vibes but then it settles down to a comfy herbal-incence-honey mix that lasts 8+ hours.

I don’t really mind fragrantica.

favorite woody and airy fragrances?
i love CDG blue santal, wonderwood, diptyque tam dao, ds and durga debaser. Looking for more herbal and less warmth (blue santal is closest to what I mean)

My Allegretto sample came in the mail today. Too bad I have the ‘Rona and can’t smell a damn thing.

>>15756552
How would you describe Red Tobacco? I’m considering it but can’t find any sample sizes to buy.

>>15756585
The opening is harsh and synthetic like many other Manceras/Montales, probably more than most of them too. Definitely sample this first cause it won't give a fuck if you hate it, it's gonna stick to all your clothes and last a long fucking time

I have a decant on the way from someone I know, I'll return with review soon...

>>15757305
thank you anon, i am highly considering bb this for my bday. The reviews Ive seen make it seem like Chanel Shalimar, which is okay with me. Maybe if it could be a bit more masc shalimar, but stil, Id probably like it.

>>15755112
tried Caron's aimez moi comme je suis, hommage à l'homme voyageur, cuir ottoman and la couche du diable
my pleb nose can't tell for sure which is which except for the Lutens obviously. The one I'm guessing is the Lalique smells like Sartorial and I'm not finding a lavender note in the description
Also smelled recently Ombré Leather which I might cop and Reminescence's Patchouli on my father, great patchouli for my pleb nose

>>15757502
actually I'm retarded, what I'm selling is probably patchouli

I have yet to smell any of the chanels yet, I actually bought a gift for my gf in a chanel store recently and was pretty hyped to beg for some samples, but I wanted to get out of that place so bad that I forgot to

I'm going to Cambridge next year. What do poshos wear? I'm guessing something older from a drugstore like Old Spice or English Leather? Britbongs please help

>>15758450
I'd imagine clueless rich normies probably wear mementus

Did anybody ever try Le Male Eau Fraiche? As far as I know the Superman/Popeye/whatever else were all the same - Am I right in thinking this is discontinued? Is it worth grabbing a bottle if I can get one relatively cheap?

>>15758465
Creed's prices are a meme, you're probably right though

>>15758489
Definitely, not sure how much others on here will agree with me but personally I think Creed is a meme and honestly paying more than £40 for smelly water is a fucking huge meme too no matter what the ingredients or the house or the nose behind it or whatever else. And I say that as someone who has spent way more than that on a number of occasions

To answer your question a bit more properly I think you should wear fragrances that suit who you are and the vibe you want to give off. Age and style appropriate. Like it would probably be weird for you to walk around with heavy leather, tobacco, incense frags or whatever if you're 17 or 18 and just starting uni and will be surrounded by the same age group who will probably still be wearing fuckin Lynx deodorant or something as their daily.

I don't know what your budget is like but personally I don't like to spend a ton so I typically just try to go for a somewhat crowd-pleasing designer or designer-adjacent frag for work/uni.

If you want to give off the rich posh vibe maybe something from Penhaligons, less people will probably be wearing these although they're priced pretty similar to Creed. You can get four free samples from their website (you pay for shipping). People seem to like Lord George, I like Terrible Teddy which is a smoky ambroxan bomb that probably doesn't really suit me, I quite like Juniper Sling too, that's sort of fresh sweet and a tiny bit spicy. People say Sartorial is good but I've never smelled it.

Really it all just depends on what vibe you're going for

>>15758548
Wow, thanks for the detailed response. Definitely agree with you on the pricing, why would I spend literally 4 times as much as I would for a reliable drugstore frag like Aramis. Penhalgions seems nice but again, yeah, 270 USD, maybe I'd get a bottle for special occasions, but it's just not viable for daily wear. You're definitely right, it would be weird for me to wear a mature frag like English Leather or Fahrenheit. I might look around for something with grassy/green notes, something like Drakkar Noir but cleaner and grassier.

>>15758646
I guess as a rule you probably ought to go for something fresh and inoffensive to wear to class, and something sweet for nights out. Just sample a bunch of stuff and see what you like. I forgot to say, congrats on getting into Cambridge.

>>15758450
Which college?

Well, would you look at that? We start with a shitpost OP and the thread has been complete shit. No one discussing Bianchis, no Quetzalyposting. no based Wafts, no discussing interesting niche frags, very little actual advice or discussion, just plebs and shitposting. Color me shocked! Fuck every one of you faggots. Yes I mad.

>>15757825
Nice? Somewhat, though Date is a sickly-sweet chemical mess in my opinion. The problem is that they’re comparable in quality to things like Eros or 1 Million and he’s selling them at near-Roja prices. Black Tie is fucking 397.00 USD and the notes seem completely generic. If Jeremy stayed in his lane and sold his frags at like 100.00, they’d be decent, honestly. At the prices he’s asking, you’d have to be a drooling retard (I include Pajeets and coomers in this category) to buy them unironically.

>>15758668
Yeah. I always keep some Brut or Pinaud aftershave around, which is a good clean smell but maybe not enough projection. I'll definitely just hit the mall and sample some stuff. Thanks, I'm nervous about fitting in as an American.

>I'm going to Cambridge next year
No, you're not yet. Interviews are only about to take place in December and you wouldn't hear back from here till August 2021 for a conditional offer anyway. Also hate to break to you but 50% students here are awkward Chinese kids smelling of sweat and unwashed clothes, 40% are normal kids like elsewhere that will smell of Axe/Sauvage mixed with the smell of spilled VKs in a club and a vomited kebab on the Market Square/King's Parade on Friday nights. The most of the remaining 10% of poshos will always secretly look down at you no matter what because you're not one of them and the worst you can possibly do is to openly try to impress them. Just embrace your upbringing, that's the best time in your life to learn that integrity is one of the most important things in your life. Otherwise you'll look as comical as Boris' son with his long hair, wearing Carhartt jackets around the town. That being said the people here who has double-barrelled names, belong to Pitt Club and live lifestyle similar to the one from the movie in your pic related wear whatever their mothers bought them for Christmas in Harrods. I've seen some Floris, Pehaligon's and Creeds bottles but they don't give a flying fuck about them. My general advise is to get involved in some respectable Full Blue sport as soon as possible (if you'll make the cut lol) other than rowing - which is, funnily enough, perceived an incel sport on the college here and won't impress anyone but your facebook friends from your hometown (there's no chance for you to compete in the Varsity against Oxford if you didn't row on like Olympics before lol). You'll meet great people there and after getting a Full Blue you'll be swimming in pussy. I had girls dtf literally putting their Instax photos to my college pigeonhole. It's gonna keep you sane in this otherwise strange city.

What do you kings think of the fragrance called Angel for men?

I'm from /fit/. I came here to request a recommendation for a nice soap or bodywash from you guys if you don't mind. I know this thread is about cologne I'm sorry but I'm not going to shit up your board by making my own thread. Thanks in advance.

>>15758832
International transfer applications are already open and I've heard back. The college I'm coming from in the states has loads of Chinese and Korean forex students, they're mostly tryhards that dress like rappers and wear CDG frags. I was in a fraternity but dropped after the first semester. Most people here don't even wear fragrance, just the occasional art hoe or gay wearing niche stuff, the Asians too. I've maybe smelled Axe or some other Drakkar clone on 2-3 normal men. Lots of candy smelling bullshit on the girls. I mostly wear Nuit D'Issey or Issey Miyake Pour Homme, pretty inoffensive and cheap. I figured maybe people would be doing it up more in Europe. Good advice there though, I don't know what VK is and it's good to know Carhartt isn't in fashion. Is Full Blue like pro or club sports? I play tennis and soccer club sports here and I'm decent at both, probably no good at soccer by European standards. I mostly wear polos, knitwear, straight fit pants or above the knee shorts, loafers or bucks. Maybe I should play into the American shtick a little more. Good advice though, thanks for that. What college are you at and what do you study?

What does /frag think of Montale Aoud Cuir D'arabie?

>>15759426
I like Lush’s stuff. Yeah, I know, they’re a girly, hippy, fruity brand. Don’t let that put you off. They have very legit perfumers working for them (Sarah McCartney used to), and they make very snice stuff. I like their Karma soap, personally. I bought their Ginger bodywash a while back, I think it’s a seasonal Christmas item. It’s great. Obviously a lot of ginger, but also other spices and other stuff, just smells great.

Interesting how Wafts have done videos on Prin, Bortnikoff and Areej this year and each time they’ve been noticeably disappointed. I feel like their argument of “Were only disappointed because we hold them to higher standards” is fair, but it’s a shame. I guess they still need to keep branching out. I did find it funny when. Dan said one of the Bortkikoff’s made him think “I have to buy a bottle, I have to buy a bottle... of something else”. At least we can’t accuse them of bias.

>International transfer applications are already open and I've heard back.
Ok, that makes sense. Hopefully Corona will calm its ass down till then as otherwise you won't get much of student life here. Basically last two years were lost here because of it. All college life subdued, mayballs cancelled, no face to face teaching, zoom 'pub' crawls etc. It's been a shitshow.
>I figured maybe people would be doing it up more in Europe.
That's the case but don't expect every other person met on street wearing some snice fragrances.
>it's good to know Carhartt isn't in fashion
It's not, it's just ridiculous to see a son of the Prime Minister wearing workwear and have any workingclass pretense. Integrity.
>Is Full Blue like pro or club sports
Full Blue sports are sports that you can compete on the Varsity against Oxford. After winning you get privileges like access to Blues stash including blazers, ties, sports fleeces etc which are hardest flexes. That's the university-wise level where you often have professional athletes competing. In theory we don't do sports scholarships like in the US here but in practice they often come to do some MBA or other bullshit degree just for the sake of playing sports. Other than that you have intercollegiate level where you can represent your college against other Cambridge colleges. It's way less competitive. I played rugby for my college but wouldn't last 10minutes against Flip Van der Merwe and other Blues rugby players
>I play tennis and soccer club sports here
Both are good, you'll meet great people there. I reckon soccer is a bit more competitive than tennis here but try both. Just be sure to join early. You can also try pick something new like cricket or just do lax that's heavily American-dominated if you'll ever miss your compatriots. Overall try as many clubs and societies as possible (not only sports-related). That's what makes this place enjoyable. Don't be one of these nerds focusing purely on your degree

>>15759482
> I mostly wear polos, knitwear, straight fit pants or above the knee shorts, loafers or bucks.
Don't worry, you'll fit in.
>What college are you at and what do you study?

>>15759577
Yeah, that's what I like about them. I think this year made them realize that pricetag and obscurity doesn't mean quality.
Speaking of Wafts my SOTD is Geo F Trumper Sandalwood that I know Dan loves, too. It's such a snice, classy scent.

>>15760230
>Overall try as many clubs and societies as possible (not only sports-related
One point more: get also involved in your college life. Depending if you're an undergrad or a postgrad try to run for some position in the JCR/MCR committee. International officer or sports officer or whatever sounds like a good fit. It's fun, quite low-commitment and you'll be a kind of recognizable college persona and around many new people other than kids from your classes.

Disgusting

Anyone else get their nose on Roja Burlington 1819? Opens up really nice with realistic citrus, the grapefruit is amazing, but dries down to something similar to one of those fucking disgusting Guerlain vetiver drydowns. Not worth retail, but wouldn't be bad if it was the same price as discounted Elysium

>>15760613
I own a bottle. I actually like the drydown a lot, but I will say, it took a few weeks before it matured. When I first got it, the drydown was a bit sparse to me. Now, it smells noticeably richer. I’m not sure how it works with samples, I imagine it’s probably already “aged”, so maybe it’s just not for you. Personally, I think it’s one of the best citrus frags ever made.

>>15759699
Breath of God is great. It’s weird as fuck and probably not super wearable, but it’s unique and interesting and actually does smell pretty good. It’s kind of like fruity spearmint gum, incense, and a huge blast of bonfire smoke. Definitely worth smelling. They actually have quite a few good fragrances. Again, Sarah McCartney used to work for them, so she’s likely behind some of their “greatest hits”.

>>15760507
Seeing as how most of the show's characters dress stylishly despite being dirt-poor, I'd guess some designer shit in the $70-100 range like Sauvage or Invictus. It won't make sense, but it'll keep them from being too depressing to watch.

It's been giving me a loss of appetite lately too, I just don't want to eat anything.
Would using a calm frag with a lot of lavender or something i find soothing (bonus points if its a cheapie like CW for example) be an option?

Lovely stuff

>>15760816
Depends on your vibe honestly. If you're more femme you could wear a powdery rose frag like Agent Provocateur. Maybe Black Aoud if you still wanna wear "men's" fragrance. Those are both kinda goth-y frags. Youth Dew and Cinnabar are nice cozy softboy frags. Those are all kinda more wintery frags. Clinique Happy for Men is my go to SS frag, pretty metrosexual, smells like mandarins and clean laundry.

A bunch of people sat down together in a room and designed the bottle that way specifically so someone would say that and want to buy it.

>>15761435
So it smells like a sweaty safari car and elephant's shit?

>>15761408
Quite pathetic ngl

>>15761445
You right.

>>15761468
Do I even want to know what the context of this video is, which looks to be a rubber pure havane bottle caused that kind of reaction to.

On some level jeremy is actually getting to the point that it makes me regret being being into fragrances all these years.

>>15761502
The Pure Havane bottle has a big spiky glass star in the middle of it

>>15761524
Good meme, he's literally became a honkman

This thread feels like shit.

We should learn from Watch Thread that creating meme threads editions will make them shit

>>15761601
Yup. It autisms up the blood. Stick to the standard bottle pc, OP. Of course, there’s a good chance the OP was the sperg and this is exactly what he wanted...

>>15761524
*rolls eyes* ya... sure seem like he slammed it really hard into his head. Do I even want to know what the real video is to this to see it in real time?

Man, remember back when Jeremy was just a humble dude with a small fragrance channel and seemed genuinely passionate about frags? Seems like so long ago...

I've got some time off work to be a lazy pos NEET so I'm replaying FFVII and relive my high school years
What's the fragrance equivalent to this feel?

Based Maison Maître Parfumeur et Gantier is 20% off through jan 1. Santal Noble is quickly becoming one of my favorites, I'll probably order a full bottle of that, and a travel of Garrigue and maybe Iris blue gris. I tried ambre dore when I first started sniffing, and it was too much for me back then, but who knows, I might like it now. I'll probably also get Patchouli 1969, and something else. It's such a nice brand.

>>15761030

So I'm new to fragrances, and having done some research I bought some dior Sauvage as it seems to be universally recognized as the most popular men's fragrance of our time.

However, I'm failing to understand the appeal of this as it just smells like axe body spray to me - not even to discredit the product, that's just what it smells like to me.

Can you return fragrances you order online? I'm not too hot on this one anymore, even if it's the panty dropper of the century.

CDG Black or Black pepper? I'm leaning towards black because it seems to perform a lot better.

I got memed into a sample of trex by zootopia, I finished it (3 ml) and ended up loving it and now I bought a full bottle and I love it more. The dry down is such a comfy fireplace like smell.

>>15762096
This is why you don’t listen to the plebs and coomers. Zootopian makes good stuff. Try some of their other stuff when you get the chance. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

>Zootopian
I don't get this meme. Are you guys implying this perfume house is for furries

>>15762146
Just a clique meme that gets their dicks dicks figuratively hard when they think about how special they are.

>>15761829
Yes I love MPetG, Iris Blue Gris and Santal Noble are marvellous

>>15762146
Nah, it’s just a silly meme. Someone just started calling it Zootopian one day and it just sorta stuck. Nothing deeper to it than that. Ignore the sourpuss, he just doesn’t like fun.

>>15755327
I have like 8 PdMs and also own Sauvage. I have like 30 other bottles but that covers my bases. He'd think my collection works year round

I love: God
I love: Jesus
I love: my 2011 bottle of la nuit de l'homme

You need to do something meaningful with your time, start learning to do something or engaging with something that makes you better as a person. Not having a purpose causes anxiety.

Also, Beau de Jour or some other dick swinging frag. You don't need to be calmed, you need to assert control over yourself.

>>15762815
ikr? I think any perfume is therapy, the stronger, the better.

>>15762815
Any list of dick swinging frags for a beginner?

>>15762979
Jovoy - Incident Diplomatique
ELDO - Tom of Finland
YSL - Kouros
Tom Ford - Tobacco Oud
Nasomatto - Duro
Nishane - Sultan Vetiver
Tom Ford - Black Orchid

do women really compliment these two fuckers on a good fragrance or do they just ask every woman they come across if they like their scent?

>>15763111
I've only gotten compliments from strangers on Nautica Voyage.

>>15763111
“””””Alpha”””””M is like 5’5 and looks like a garden gnome. What do you think?

>>15761098
Been there. No fragrance is going to help you as much as you need. First, if you're not exercising most days starting will likely five you the biggest improvement. I went from a desk job to a labor job and after a few weeks al.ist all of my anxiety and panic attacks were gone. After that, meditation and mindfulness can do a lot of good. Look at your diet too, surprising how much that affects your mood.
Either that or start collecting every batch of Aventus, idk.

>>15763111
I only ever get compliments from gfs/lovers

>>15761424
Thanks anon, as good as those sound (especially the first) I don't want to scare him with a really expensive perfume. I'll have a look around for something mall-tier.

because some people just want to have THE SEX

Even for a containment thread this one is sad

Its not about two niches not being mentioned. It feels like shit

This is me. This is how I win.

Bianchi paid my import duties for me! How can one woman be so based?!

>>15763803
Oh shit, that’s amazing. Is anybody here expecting a sample of Tyger Tyger? Very curious by it, but I can’t justify ordering just one sample from her.

can someone give me a quick rundown?
rcvd it as a gift.
not sure where it is appropriate to wear it?

Huffing Black Knight right now. HOOOOOOOOOOOH!

>>15763877
Not looking forward to the day my sample runs out. How can something be so big and bold, but so elegant? Like a heavyweight boxer that does ballet.

>>15763877
Okay you got me. w2c Bianchi for leafbros?

>>15764167
I’m a leaf now, and I ordered direct from her.

FedEx delayed my shipment again. Fucking faggots.

Is "signature scent" a meme?

>>15763698
ooohhh mr. moneybags with the bond
>>15764261
its cringe for me. yeah I get the point, but why not just call it your favorite? Why box yourself in like that? Too many fabulous perfumes out there to just wear one all the time, it seems lazy.

I've got this Armaf Tres Nuit.
Is it any good?

Wow. Sticky Fingers is hands down the best patchouli scent I’ve ever smelled. It’s official, lads. Bianchi is no meme. Her stuff is legit,

Jeremy wears like 80 sprays of everything. People compliment him so he'll go away

>>15764483
I thought he did 5?

>>15764543
Might as well be 80. There's no need for five sprays unless you're going out in a Siberian blizzard.

>>15763522
Dude, shut the fuck up, Gary.

>>15764704
If you’re not wearing an entire can of Sauvage Very Cool Spray whenever you go out, why even bother?

>>15764704
I was gonna say, I had a feeling you guys were memeing about 8 sprays... I do 2 at most and even that is strong. I'm new to /frag/ I couldn't believe you guys would do 8 sprays. That's like /fit/ doing 5 scoops of mutant mass gainer.

>>15764304
Glad to have you on board. I find it to be her safest scent, but it’s still incredible.

What perfum should I get my gf for xmas? She's mostly into designer scents and has coco mademoiselle, gucci bloom, un jardin sur nil, the one..
Any recommendations, I do want to get her into niche a lil bit

There is nothing more, buy her a dog.

Should I buy the Francesca Bianchi From MArs sample set, or the whole sample set?

>>15765182
Most of these that I tried were masculine but Under My Skin and The Lovers Tale are excellent too

>>15765182
wearing my e-water sample today, its pretty nice

>>15765182
Buy the whole thing.

>>15764713
>Women have a much better sense of smell than men. If you can smell your own cologne, it's too much.Unfortunately, many men stop spraying when it smells good to them, without realizing it is now extremely overpowering.I do 1 spray, but I do the type where you walk into it so it's spread out and not concentrated in 1 spot.

>>15765033
>Any recommendations, I do want to get her into niche a lil bit
I reckon you don’t understand how women work. 99% are not interested in niche or finding an interesting scent matching their personality. They’re interested in status and flexing it (at least in their own minds). She doesn’t like coco mademoiselle, gucci bloom, un jardin sur nil, the one. She likes Chanel, Gucci, Hermes and Dolce&Gabbana and the idea of owning something from these designers. She won’t be happy with a niche fragrance that she and her girlfriends don’t know or she hasn’t seen it on Instagram no matter how good it smells. If you want to get her something that she finds ‘niche’, aka has massive presence as a pseudo niche in womens magazines, buy her Le Labo, Diptyque, Jo Malone, Tom Ford, Dior/Chanel exclusive lines. That’s just how it works. That being said don’t be a fucking simp and buy her whatever you want to smell on her. That’s what I always do and neglect all of my girlfriends preferences. You will compliment her a few times and she’s gonna love it too, don’t worry. I just tell them that it’s expensive and if they haven’t heard about it jokes on them or even better take a girl to a luxurious department store and buy what I want her to wear there. They love the experience more than the fragrance anyways and you can test a few new things yourself.

As someone with allergies, I hate people who wear perfume.
Go with zero sprays.

I don’t care about your allergies. I care about smelling good and stop this victim bullshit. You won’t get any reaction from smelling a perfume on someone you fucking pussy.

>>15764473
This is still one of the most tasteless ads I’ve seen

which one should I blind buy as a fragrance newfag: dunhill icon or D&G the one?

Today I wore my jumper for the first time since February, decorated my Christmas tree, listened to Bob Dylan, drank a strong beer and basked in the beauty of Dior Homme Intense. Today has been extremely comfy.

What’s been your SOTD?

>>15765459
Ambra Aurea

>>15765200
sometimes I wonder if the companies make the fragrances so weak because of the focus groups giving "too strong" feedback. you can see these reactions when youtubers ask girls.

"it's too strong" "this is not so strong I like it". we are getting watered down crap probably because of this line of thinking.

Do as many sprays as you think the fragrance in question and the situation needs, weather etc. Know your fragrance, go heavier on watery scents and easier on denser scents, it's not rocket science.

>>15765264
dunhill is good for everyday wear

the one is only good if you plan on having a girl over. wasting your time wearing it outside. spray it on your pillows or something

it's a few days now since i said fuck it and bought the entire armaf creed clones. fuck creed and all they stand for. spice and wood and maybe viking is the only thing i'll ever buy from them again

intense man is every bit as good and lasts longer than aventus, absolutely shocking opening though.

sillage and milestone are better than the OGs. my dad has bought silver mountain water for years and he's already ready to drop it to buy a lifetimes supply of sillage

>>15765264
the one is one of the best smells ever, date night or not, whatever, it smells incredible.

don't know how icon smells

>>15765749
Based and Armafpilled.

>>15765459
Bentley for Men Intense since it’s cold as fuck here.

>>15765264
D&G The One. Never smelled Dunhill Icon so idk about that one.

>>15765309
Get both then. Icon is pretty cheap at discounters. Only like $50 I think.

>>15765200
Just spray it on your two pulse points. Or once on the front of your neck and maybe once behind so you leave a trail.

Walking through the vapor cloud is wasteful. If you don't want to wear even one full spritz's worth of fragrance, buy a tiny atomizer and you can do your rationing without losing a drop.

>>15765749
It’s obviously the ridiculous pricing consequence (just put these $300 in perspective and ask someone if they think that’s a lot of money or not) and I’m happy that clone houses exist to take a bit of the market from themed but I couldn’t wear a clone myself. This just feels so cheap and the scent is never the same. The worst kind of clones are those that try to be as close as possible desu, I wouldn’t feel as bad wearing some ‘inspired’ scents like Tres Nuit.

>>15765217
Appreciated, this is must be one of the most insightful things I have ever read on here.

Spray as much as pleases you. Don’t listen to any made up rules.

>>15765229
You’re not allergic to perfume. The IFRA over regulates what can go in fragrances to the point that it’s basically impossible for them to have any allergens in them. You’re just a bitch.

>>15765868

>>15765866
No worries, I’m rereading this post and maybe a should add that I don’t hate women or anything like that. We’re just different, men are into things women are into people. Both of these basic character traits can go wrong in this hobby. I prefer every day and night a Stacy who buys Hermes fragrances just because she can’t afford their handbags over some dirty fragrance nerd who collected 100 bottles of basically the same type of scent with negligible differences for some autistic reasons. Men can also be cringe. I have forgotten one more brand of women’s ‘niche’ Holy Trinity: Byredo. Byredo, Le Labo, Diptyque that’s what’d make a good gift for a girl.

I was in Tesco and there was somebody who was absolutely fucking drenched in Cool Water. I mean they must have drunk a bottle and sweat it out. Then showered in it. I could smell it from a mile away and it lingered in the air for ages. If it didn’t violate guidelines I’d have shaken his hand.

What are the honest to god odds that Creed and other houses are actually using real ambergris? Even at niche price points, international law combined with the already preposterous rarity of the substance makes it seem like a consistent supply is virtually impossible. But so many houses list it in their notes. Are all these houses ACTUALLY using it, or is there a dirty little secret in the industry?

>>15767354
I like MFK’s Oud in terms of designer/artificial ouds. Most others smell extremely similar to the BR one and aren’t worth exploring imo. Mellifluence on Etsy does some real ouds if you’d like to sample those. Anthony Marmin does some great attars for reasonable money also
