SOTD: Dua #Fierce

NOTES: Petit Grain, Cardamom, Lemon, Orange, Fir, Aquatic Notes, Jasmine, Rosemary, Rose, Lily-of-the-Valley, Sage; Vetiver, Musk, Oakmoss, Brazilian Rosewood, and Sandalwood

>>15971979
>Dua
what are you even doing, man?

>>15971979
Just order couple liters of perfumers alcohol and plenty of different of cheap arabian oils and start doing what Dua does yourself. You'll save yourself a lot of money.

>>15971817
I just can't brush off the association with that cheap sneaker rack. But i'll wear it some time and see how it performs.
>cab smell
Back in the days, it was common for cabbies in my country to use some kind of orange air freshener, and the combination of it, the dust and material seats gave them this distinct smell, which I often get reminded of when smelling perfumes with orange notes. It just takes me back to that w124 with woody accents in the interior and it quite puts me off

>>15971988
Abercrombie and Fitch Fierce sucks. Dua’s #Fierce doesn’t. That’s what I’m doing, nigger.

>>15971998
Why the fuck would I do that when I can just pay for someone to do it for me?

>>15972028
>poorfag cope
Now tell me how your super-clone Rolex is 99% as good as the genuine article.

SOTE is the last of my FM Promise sample. Absolutely not for me, but what an incredible fragrance it is.

Just had the chance to sample this and it has this weird puke-like smell plus rotten fruit. I think I was memed.

>>15972040
What the fuck are you talking about, you autist? I wear Invicta.

>>15972067
You make fun of him but he bangs hotter girls than you, drives a better car than you, has more subscribers than you, and is in better shape than you.

Well yes, I only wear Guerlain fragrances.
How could you tell?

>>15972082
Aside from the subscribers, which is meaningless because I’m not a social media whore, none of those things are true.

>>15972070
Just look at this bottle. You have no one but yourself to blame.

>>15972107
Yes, you have sex with hotter women than a (admittedly aging) former fake boy-band dude with access to coke.

>>15972117
Not him, but I’m hookerfag, so yes. Yes I do. Generational wealth will do that.

>>15972119
Oh so you’ve never made your own money? Fuck off, trust fund kid.

>>15972120
>moving the goalposts
Jeremy’s a trust fun kid too, brainlet.

>>15972119
Paying for sex is pathetic

>>15972145
M8, you’re dreaming if you don’t think Jeremy pays those girls to be there.

>>15972133
But he doesn’t brag about it like you just did.

>>15972156
He’s got clout. He doesn’t really need to. He puts them on his Instagram and they get a ton of new followers.

>>15972145
Good to know, bud.

>>15972160
That’s still payment. They’re there to further their careers, not because they totally can’t resist Jeremy. Also, no he doesn’t. He’s a big fish in a small pond. Being the most famous fragrance reviewer is like being the most famous polka musician. Like sure, you’re the best, but who cares?

Getting back on topic, when is this supposed to release? I wanna get it.

>>15972167
You seem bothered.

Based hookeranon making the coomers and jeremyfags seethe

>>15972177
Yeah he’s so based for having mommy and daddy’s money and fucking hookers. Hope the nigga gets robbed by a prostitute.

I'm not sure what's happening in this thread
Where am I?

>>15972172
Not at all, friend. I’m cool as a cucumber. Just thought you’d appreciate me pointing out your error. Just being helpful.

>>15972192
What error? I’m confus

>>15972161
I’m not your bud, you larping faggot

>>15972186
>>15972200
>>15972205
Seethe harder lmao

>>15972167
I care. I need to know the 10 most whatever whatever fragrances.

>>15972210
This nigga gonna get the clap from some hooker lmao cope

>>15972210
No woman will love you.

It really is hilarious how hard based hooker anon triggers you fags lol

Might get a 2ml of kouros and wear it to bed, or I could just piss the bed, I'll smell the same when I wake up

>>15972230
It’s pretty pathetic how you try to pretend that you’re not hookeranon when you really are. Sad! Many such cases.

>>15972230
He doesn’t trigger me. I just detest trust fund kiddies.

>>15972234
Yeah, yeah, schizo. Everyone is everyone. All the oldfags are just posting false flags constantly. Fuck off, sperg.

>>15972236
Wait, hookeranon was actually Jeremy?

>>15972254
That would be hilarious.

>>15972234
This is my first post in this thread. I've forgotten more about fragrances that you'll ever learn and let me tell you what's my stance is: based hooker anon.
:^)

>>15972254
Of course not, hookeranon doesn't post with a German accent

Haven’t been in over a year.

Based Hookerfag, what’s in your rotation right now?

>newfag schizo sperg thinks that he's anything but a fad for these threads

>>15971913
Well, this thread is turned to dog shit. I’m gravely disappointed

>>15972331
Been doing a lot of Musc Ravageur lately. CP still. I have a bunch of Bianchis (Black Night, Etruscan Water, Sex in the Sea Neroli, Sticky Fingers). I rotate through those. Wore Tank Battle last night. Roja Burlington. Don’t really have a rotation, just kinda wear whatever I’m feeling.

>>15972332
maybe if hooker would stop derailing the threads by responding to bait over and over and over it would go better

>>15972355
I actually only posted
>>15972119
And
>>15972355
I’ve got nothing to do with the rest of it.

Are either Aoud Lemon Mint or Aoud Blue Notes any good?

>>15972361
Whoops, I meant I posted >>15972348

>>15972348
Based and Bianchipilled

>>15972377
She really does make great stuff. Fragrancebuy has been getting a few of her frags in here and there recently, so I’ve been grabbing them cheap when I can. They’re interesting because they’re all kind of similar, that same buttery orris base, but with something different on top of it. Makes them distinct, but still familiar. Bianchi is no meme.

>>15972235
Blasphemy

>>15972366
>Are either Aoud Lemon Mint or Aoud Blue Notes any good?
not really. Avoid Mancera/Montale in general.

Thoughts on cedrat boise?

This is a really nice bottle for 27$

>>15972599
I’m not black by the way it’s the lighting

What are some terrible scents that I could get a friend for his birthday? Not talking about overdone ones like one million or sauvage, just scents that smell reall feminine or bad in general

>>15972603
Sure, sure

>>15972617
Why do you want that?

*pause*
*CLAP*
*spins*

whats up guys jeremy here today im gonna show you top 10 fragrances for when youre on /fa/ now these fragrances get you a lot of compliments on /fa/ but not as much as mine , black tie for men *sniffs* ahhh...i LOVE it baby now were gonna go to number 10 spot, dior sauvage, this one is the best but not the best you should buy it but dont buy it because the DNA is old now and everyone knows it so you wont get as many compliments, but its still so great and if you buy it you will get a lot of compliments with this one so its the best for /fa/ ok number 9 spot

>>15972599
Based space jam poster

>>15972639
We give each other terrible presents as a joke. He‘s into fragrances so I figured a „bad“ scent might be a fun idea

>>15972653
You forgot the “sexy boys sexy girls” part but otherwise 9/10

>>15972653
you forgot the coke sniffing before the pausing part

>>15972656
Azzaro Sport I heard sucks.

Coronabro here. My sense of smell is 100% gone. Well, with a select few very strong/pungent perfumes, like Amber Kiso, I can very slightly smell them off the atomizer. Other than that I just feel like I have a mild/moderate cold.

>>15972656
Brut.

>>15972656
Nautical Blue

>>15972617
This or a sample of Hyrax

>>15972674
i like amber kiso so much, better than the dark knight i wore last night
wearing archetipo tonight, ive finally come around to it, its pretty nice but still not very rosy. probably impossible to find in the states however
have a sample of le lion on the way too
might buy one of the three, those are the only ones really sparking my interest right now
>>15972599
thats a very good deal
>>15972617
stetson

>>15972617
Haven't tried, but it's like $5

>>15972690
He said terrible, not forgettable

>>15972617
Kouros

>>15972617
BR540

>>15972656
Definitely Jeremys fragrance

>>15972059
I find it really annoying when people can't spell "losing".

Incense rec of the day: Baieido Byakudan Kobunboku. Japanese sandalwood--ultra-clean, pure, and subtle. Makes my heart flutter when I burn a stick and take that first whiff. Also has one of the most aesthetically pleasing boxes I've seen(looks better IRL). Perfect mid-level stick if you're trying to step up your home fragrance game

Civet literally smells like piss
Why do people love this scent?

>>15973017
IT SMELLS GOOD, OK!?

>>15972713
I still got around 3ml in my Archetipo decant. Love this stuff. I was really hyped for getting Norne but know I don’t know anymore as this Mendittorosa ticks all boxes from what I expected from Norne. I guess I will cop a bottle of Slumberhouse anyways to see how is the new batch and potentially resell it anyways

>>15973017
Sometimes I want to pay for “artfully” manufactured filthshit to offend people.

>>15973017
Hyrax smells like cats piss imo

>>15972235
Is this whole kouros smells like piss thing a meme? I got a sample and the musk note isn't even that strong.

>>15973361
Historically I get it, but in its current formulation it’s more clean than dirty.

Just bought a bunch of samples:

Parfum d'Empire Azemour Les Orangers
Tauer Perfumes L'Air du Desert Marocain
Diptyque Philosykos
Goldfield & Banks Pacific Rock Moss
Bvlgari Au The Vert
L'Occitaine Eau De Baux
Davidoff Cool Water EDT
Dior Eau Sauvage

Was this a good variety as a frag newbie? Which one should I try first? I still don't really know what kind of scents I'm into. My favorites so far are Molecule 01 and Kurous, but I'm not sure if I will buy them. Maybe this batch of samples will have a winner.

>>15973405
very solid choices anon good job

>>15973405
I’m only familiar with Philosykos, Cool Water, and Eau Sauvage, but I love them all. I recommend trying Eau Sauvage after a nice shower when you settle down for the evening.

>>15973405
>Parfum d'Empire Azemour Les Orangers
Very snice
>Tauer Perfumes L'Air du Desert Marocain
Very snice
>Diptyque Philosykos
Be sure to get the EdP version as EdT way more feminine
>Goldfield & Banks Pacific Rock Moss
Snice
>Bvlgari Au The Vert
Very snice
>L'Occitaine Eau De Baux
Snice
>Davidoff Cool Water EDT
Snice
>Dior Eau Sauvage
Very snice
>Was this a good variety as a frag newbie?
Great
>I still don't really know what kind of scents I'm into.
For sure you will know more about your preferences after testing all of them

>>15973405
Wore my Desert Marocain sample again tonight and it's still just incredible. Can't speak for most of the others yet.

Really looking forward to finally sample FB - The Black Knight. I love the initial leather blast of Tuscan Leather, but really can’t stand the Berry in the drydown. Any other recommendations for unusual leather scents?

>>15973502
Papillon Anubis
Xerjoff MV Agusta

Both very unique

>>15973502
Rich Mess/Club Design for some really unique, bright leathers, B683 for a "high-tech" version of Tuscan Leather, Elephant & Roses for subtle, personal rose+leather bubble, Rose & Cuir for a bitter green leather, Zworykina Cuir de Russie for a complex, dark leather bomb

>>15973545
>>15973512
Thanks for the suggestions!

>>15972082
that kinda life is empty calories, nothing in the core just dopamine chasing at the end of the day. when that ends life will hit you hard and you may regret it no matter how much it sounds good in the moment

>>15973556
This is some next-level cope, holy shit.

>>15973556
>namefagging
Off yourself

>>15972070
rotten fruit is a very acclaimed accord, that's how bleu de chanel and terre d'hermes smell and everydoby love them.

Wearing the last of my Burning Ben sample today. My dad came round and had to leave because I sprayed so much on. I’ve said this before, but when you just sit at home sniffing your wrists you never get any sense of how strong something is.

Jeremy just had sex

>>15973647

what fragrance should i ware if i would be in his situation?

>DS & Durga Cowboy Grass and Bruno Acampora Young Hearts arriving today
>Got them for a good deal from eBay, never smelled them before, looking forward to them
>I have the Coronavirus and can't smell anything and possibly won't be able to for weeks or maybe longer
great

>>15973717

Why does Jeremy call this a teenager fragrance?

>>15973040
I love that people are still using this gif

>>15973616
Yeah, I feel that. Accidentally choked out my family with two sprays of Bogue LiTA the other day. I knew it was strong but I didn’t realize it was across the room miasma strong

>>15973786
He noticed it the second I opened the door, no hesitation. Pretty funny actually.

How is LiTA?

>>15973017
A good fragrance has to smell a little "bad" to make it interesting

>>15973616
Its really hard to judge how people react to fragrances. I think all the Bianchis I tried are very sensual, comfy scents. But my family all think theyre super overwhelming and pushy. Whereas I never got a negative comment from them for wearing stuff the internet thinks is risky, like Kouros, Sohan or Irisch Moos.

Btw, I suggest to give Eros another try anons. I fell for the meme and thought it was too feminine from memory but never tested it again. It is actually very snice, like a sweet cool water on my skin.

>>15973803
Why can’t I understand a fucking word that vedder says

>>15973816
i think there is just one anon that compares it too la vie est belle relentlessly, eros it's a fine scent for what it is

>>15973747
>put this on and go grocery shopping
>girl literally follows me around the store but doesn’t get anything in the aisles I’m in

Y EDP is based. Too bad I’m autistic and can’t talk to girls

>>15973818
Don't feel bad, you aren't the only one.
But I'd say that Kurt Cobain was worse when it comes to unintelligible lyrics

>>15973791
It’s certainly unique, a hefty booze/patchouli/tobacco with a smokey plasticky vibe. But it’s one of my least favorites from the house. The opening is nice but something in the dry down reminds me of mesquite bbq chips. People compare it to T Rex, but they are very different in my mind

What would you do to her buttholes?

>>15973864
D-do women really have more than one?

>>15973865
Since they talk so much shit and deserve to be slapped I imagine their second butthole is their mouth.

Ive been researching the known fragrance collections of various historical personages from Napoleon to Putin and can’t find anything about Stalin. What would you imagine his modern scent choice to be? Something at the interstice of East and West I think. What’s a boozy oriental?

>>15973872
Commies don't wear bougie fumes. He had the same pair of boots for like 30 years

>>15973040

>>15973872
What would he war then faggot? Tsarist tears?

Is there a musky oud frag like Sohan for less bucks? I tried Rasasis Faqat lil Rijal but I made the mistake of sampling it when I had a headache, so everytime I smell it now I get a headache again. Im gonna wait like a month before I smell it again. Also tried His majesty the Oud which is a sweet feminine mess and Swiss Arabians Shagaf oud abjad, which is weirdly spicy up close but I get fantastic sniffs from it wearing it. But none of them even went in the same direction as Sohan. Im trying the Bulgari tea frag next since one anon here is hyping it, any other recs?

had several women compliment me when I'm wearing wanted by night. weird.

>>15973816
I’m constantly (pleasantly) surprised by my girlfriend’s reactions. She’s disgusted whenever I try a mass-appealing gourmand but likes all my Bogues and Zootopians

>>15973916
Why is that weird? It smells good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSuKicQM1EQ&t=10s

>>15973957
Can't wear addidas, my foot is too wide

Nice scent but it has absolutely no longevity

>>15973916
what did he mean by this

>>15973408
>>15973412
>>15973456
>>15973461
Thanks!
>Be sure to get Philosykos EdP
Dang, next time I guess. What makes it feminine?

>>15974061
>Nice scent but it has absolutely no longevity
True. It's still great, though.

>>15974061
Correct. The shortest lasting fragrance I own, I think. And comfortably my favourite.

>>15974061
Is the edt that different from the edp?

What frag do you guys use casually everyday?

>>15974150
Massively so.

>>15974116
Coconut

>>15974181
For work Prada L'Homme. Going out and I want to smell low key good: Frarinik or Mugler Cologne. At home I wear all my frags casually

>>15971913
why do people think bvlgari marine edt smell like egs? i had aqua amara ofr almost a year and never smell the egs

>>15973954
good, but didn't expect it to be a compliment getter, I got it more for myself. Tried layering with OG Spicebomb EDT with pretty good results too

>>15974200
There is a sulfur component to that briny, marine accord which some people are really sensitive to.

>>15974181
>What frag do you guys use casually everyday?
Pour un Homme de Caron
Acqua di Parma Colonia
Mugler Cologne

Really, though, anything can be worn casually if you're easy on the sprayer.

What scent dies he wear?

>>15974181
Two sprays of Tuscan Leather on my chest.

I actually do cosplay as the Joker somI was wondering what irony-tier, mocking frags he’d wear? Hyrax lol?

>>15974236
Along with a shot of cum, eh faggot?

>>15974225
Something by ELDO or Zootopian

>>15974244
Yeah, can you tell your dad to stop eating so much asparagus?

>>15974249
When can I cum over and unload?

Vintage fragances will ever be better than new gay fragances.

>>15974276
Thank you for this very useful and insightful post.

>>15974249
Wait, but asparagus only makes your pee smell... oh.

this smells almost exactly like invictus

>>15974402
Funny, I thought it was like a spicy Ultra Male.

>>15974397

Patou pour homme, Macassar. Animalic scents. Now restricted.

Enjoy your homo unisex fragance goy.

>>15974244
What's wrong with Tuscan Leather?

>>15974200
>>15974207
i don't trust anyone that smells egg in aquatics wtf. i suspect is mostly americans that get this, judging by the fragrantica reviews. do eggs smell different in us?

>>15974551
>do eggs smell different in us?
They might. In the US, they strip the natural cuticle off the egg so they actually have to refrigerate them or they go rotten instantly.

zoomer here. GIT by creed smells so good but that smell is so familiar in cheap fragrances, laundry and cleaning products. Iwill not not spend money on that scent.

>>15974181
Luna rossa carbon and aqua amara

SOTE (since I slept most of the day): Versace Eros. POWER. STRENGTH. KRAFT.

>>15974181
Dior Homme was the only fragrance I have owned and re-bought for the better part of the last 12+ years and is still my go-to, all-situation fragrance. It is also one of the few fragrances I reliably get complimented on

>>15974667
I HAVEN’T FORGOTTEN ABOUT YOU, COOMER

>>15974667

>>15974719

>>15973872
Alright, give me the historical fragrance collection? I know Napoleon 4711 and Putins Gold but let me hear the rest

>>15973405
Eau De Baux is nice but I can’t wear it all the time. It’s a very warm scent and after a few hours I get tired of it.

>>15974715
I bought Dior Homme original on eBay recently, or at least think I did. The listing picture is original but then in the description the picture is of the new version. I'm not going to be happy if I've gotta fuck with returning it.

I love Jeremy, but his videos are so shit recently. Endless "Top 10" with the same fragrances in different orders, he says they're the best, then says they're shit, he's all over the place.

how do we save jeremy bros? rehab?

>>15974981
is the seller topscents? because i ordered it from them a couple weeks ago and its the legit OG homme

>>15975087
Intervention time?

>>15973747
Because he’s jealous that his shitty fragrance will never be as good.

>>15974181
I use a different one every day.

>>15974762
Lol

>>15974181
cheapies. usually prada carbon and lhomme. when it's hot, mugler cologne or bright neroli

Thoughts on this? Found a 2014 bottle of this one for like 80$, was contemplating on whether or not I should blind buy it considering I like DHI and Prada L'homme

going to pull an all nighter, have some coffee at around 6am, then watch the sunrise. SOTD for later will be Mandarino di Amalfi, might get me out of this rut I'm in lately.

>>15971913
Worth it

>>15973747
I've gotten tons of compliments wearing this

>>15975269

>>15975289
Honestly, yes. Fuccbois hate it because it’s not candy-sweet bubblegum juice, but it’s good shit. If it hadn’t come out riding the Aventoos hype, I think it would’ve been considered a modern classic.

Is there anything that smells like little girls?
Not sure I can import stuff from Japan because of the import laws.

I need a sort of casual scent for warmer weather that can be used for clubbing/partying as well as a regular pub night.
Basically a night out fragrance.
Something easy going, easy to like but not overpowering.
My staple do-everything summer scent is L‘eau D‘Issey. But for casual and clubbing stuff, it’s too serious/classic. I need something more fun.
Versace Eros smells too focused on only fistpump-esque clubbing and the sweetness is too „top-heavy“/overpowering.
I’m also not the kind of guy for people-pleaser blue scents. I hate Sauvage and I semi-like Dylan Blue, but it’s not right for me.
I like Invictus and I’ve used it for quite some time for this purpose, but it smells a bit too generic and synthetic. It’s also too much of a „mans fragrance“ (probably shower-gel-ish?). L‘eau D‘Issey for example smells classic and manly as well but in a different way that’s more down my alley.

Try something totally classic like Guerlain Vetiver or Dior Eau Sauvage.

>>15976015
ok i'll cut santal 33, kalan, pour homme oud noir, eros, i'll keep dylan blue to compare and if its as good or whatever i'll stick with dylan in the future. i'll keep the rest just so i'll know for science. i want the longevity of creed. do you get lavender from green irish tweed? i don't like how cool water makes me feel. lavender reduces testosterone and i can notice it

Based civetposter. Long time no see.

>>15976008
Try Versace Pour Homme.
It's fairly cheap and not too loud

>>15976035
That was going to be my suggestion as well.

>>15976016
I feel like the longevity of Eau Sauvage would hold it back a bit in this context.

>>15976008
Chanel Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme could work for you too.

>>15976027
>i want the longevity of creed.
Prepare to be disappointed. It's not the 2000's anymore.

>do you get lavender from green irish tweed?
It's not listed as a note, but yes, lavender is in there. Pretty sharp too.

>>15976037
>I feel like the longevity of Eau Sauvage would hold it back a bit in this context.
People here act like it's 4711.

It's a fairly close scent and it lasts about 6 hours for me.

It doesn't perform like old A*Men or 1 Million, but that's not what you wanted anyway.

What's a really dark, strong tobacco scent that emulates a dimly-lit jazz bar?
Don't say jazz club, it's not nearly dark or tobacco enough for my purposes

>>15976055
Chergui, perhaps?

>>15976056
Too sweet to be dark imo

>>15976062
Yeah, maybe. What about Tobacco Oud?

>>15976043
>6 hours
i get at most 2-3 hours from the edt, that's with 4 sprays total. by the 2nd hour i almost can't smell it anymore. do you spray it on your skin or on your clothes? i feel like im doing something wrong

>>15976043
It's one of my favourites so my comments about the longevity aren't a complaint, it just doesn't seem like what he's looking for. It's a thing of beauty though.

>>15976064
A close spray on the neck, an arm's length spray on the chest, and one on the forearm which I wipe onto the other forearm.

Try asking other people if they can smell it after a couple hours, because I think the hedione in it blitzes your sense of smell, plus, that citrus-basil opening isn't meant to last anyway.

>>15976055
Mancera Red Tobacco. It's strong as fuck.

>>15976056
Chergui is a fave, but i'm looking for something richer and less sweet
>>15976063
I tried a decant of this a while ago and the tobacco was too subtle for me, i got mostly whiskey
>>15976075
this looks promising, thanks

More and more blown away by how good Shagaf Oud Abjad is. Not synthetic, not to sweet, even weirdly herbal up close, really quality. Its supposed to be a clone of Interlude man, but I have never smelled the OG. Has anyone here smelled both and can tell me if the Amouage is better?

Black Afgano has grown so much on me, definitely among my favourites I have sampled so far. Will most likely go for a bottle there

SOTD: YSL Y EDP

Can’t wait for Le Parfum.

thoughts?

>>15976238
Imagine a softer, calmer, better rounded, more mature Spicebomb.

I'm looking for some fragrances for spring/summer that don't devolve in the usual deodorant/shower gel/cleaner type smell, any suggestions?

Corona day 4

I can't smell anything. Not even a tiny bit.

>>15976301
Sorry to hear that. How do you feel generally?

>>15976301
Sorry to hear. It takes a long time to come back.

My niece got the Rona in November and, to this day, can only smell really strong scents like coffee.

>>15976273
I'll take a look, thanks.

Coronavirus was unleashed by the IFRA so they can stealthily neuter every fragrance in existance and no one will ever know the difference

>>15976435
Corona was released by the MSS to ruin western economies and to prevent Trump's reelection as payback for US backing the free Hong Kong protesters.
The virus coming from a wet market and the videos of Chinese dying in the streets from the virus was a massive psyop to convince westerners than the virus hurt China as well.
It's already been established that the virus was either made or altered in a lab, and it's public knowledge that China shut down internal travel while allowing their citizens to travel internationally, thereby spreading the virus.
Now the Chinese are set to overtake the US economy and they have their boy in the WH. Remember how the media whined in 2016 about Trump completely divesting his assets to prevent a conflict of interest? Yet no one seems bothered that Biden's family is still making billions with their Chinese investments?

>>15976518

Sample this evening is Costa Azzura again. I was impressed by the scent, but not the longevity last time. I hoped that it would be longer lasting than other "Blue" Tom Ford fragrances due to it being less focused on Citrus, but no.

>>15976518
This anon gets it.

>Everything I don't like is q

What is the logic of the after shaves?
Should I use the after shave and then wear a fragrance of the same line? So one needs multiple aftershaves? Do one fucks up with the other?
Atm I use a shit 5 bucks after shave just to not get my skin irritated, then I wash it away because it smells like sadness.
I would buy a nice designer after shave but heck no I'l buy multiple expensive aftershaves.
What the heck should I do

>>15976578
Just use a generic aftershave cream when you've shaved. I use a Nivea one and have for years. It works fine for me.

We're talking about perfumes here (which we inexplicably call "aftershave" in the UK). You absolutely shouldn't apply a perfume to your neck after shaving unless you want it to sting like an absolute bastard.

I rarely spray perfume on my next, more like my wrists and the top of my chest.

>>15976584
Neck, not "next". To add to that, I recommend using a moisturising aftershave lotion. It shouldn't smell of anything.

>>15976587
I just use moisturizer or serum, fuck putting alcohol on my face

>>15976594
This is what I've used for about ten years. No alcohol here either. https://www.nivea.co.uk/products/nivea-men-sensitive-cool-post-shave-balm-50259700232810045.html

>>15976578
It seems an idea not to use aftershave at all haven’t occurred to you yet so I advise you Mr. Fine American Blend EDT that smells like RGPH.

>>15976597
I use this too.
Can confirm its superiority over after shave. It has a pleasant smell but it isn't strong and doesn't last long.

>>15976030

It's interesting it's not supposed to be a saccharine blue scent from reviews or whatever, but h24 seems to hold more promise for me

>>15976612
Ok, thanks.
So I just say fuckoff to things like picrelated?

>>15976689
Yes, designer "aftershaves" are a waste of money. Buy the Eau De Toilette of that fragrance for slightly more money and bask in its glory. Just don't spray it on your neck after shaving.

Difference between EdT and EdP?

>>15976712
EdP has a higher percentage of perfume in it, generally projects less and lasts longer.

>>15976712
by definition it's just concentration. EdT will be weaker than EdP.

In practice, though, the formulas will be slightly tweaked to make the EdP richer and give it more depth, while the EdT will be brighter. This is also related to the physics of how different aromachemicals evaporate at different rates.

>>15976692
>Just don't spray it on your neck after shaving.
What's the difference in the alcohol of aftershaves and perfumes?

>>15976741
aftershaves have much more alcohol.

Good aftershaves, however, also have other compounds that prevent skin inflammation after shaving.

>>15976741
Don't spray anything on your decollete area, prematurely ages it

>>15976741
If you use things like the Nivea or pretty much any post-shave cream they won’t have any alcohol in at all. Perfumes have significantly more and it’s bad for your face in general, and much worse when you’ve got small cuts on your skin. You might have cuts you can’t even see but you’ll know about them very quickly when you put alcohol on them.

>>15976015

>>15977789
ive kind of quit sampling as much as i used to. buy $100 or so, might find one id like, and might not at all, and them I'm down 100, and still have to buy a bottle. I'm looking for full bottle stuff, not the experience, or smelling something new, theres just so many bland forgettable scents, even highly touted well regarded perfumes are very hit and miss for me. Its all so personal, i have to be sold on something before i order a sample. Theres a really cheap sample set thats been shilled lately, Jacques Fath, but fuck, i troll through the reviews and it seems positively banal and prosaic, maybe one or two id like, why should I have 10+ plus I know I wont? For the experience? no thanks, I dont think I'm missing anything. I have a pretty good idea what i like anyway, I have probally 4 on my list of wants, maybe after I buy those 4, Ill sample some new stuff, or maybe not.

>>15977590
>>15977593

>>15977988
If you're buying 20+ samples each, and can't find things you like, I think you should accept the limitations of perfumery and settle to some degree on what you can still reasonably enjoy. How many full bottles do you already have, and how many more do you want other than those desired 4? I too, being new, have to balance things that are worth experiencing or becoming familiar with, and things I think I'll actually like.

what smells more like a black and mild cigar, tobacco vanille or spicebomb extreme?

>>15976002
City on Fire smells like straight birch tar oil, which I like, but it's not a good fragrance imo. I think Tea for Two achieves "burnt match" better.
Memoirs Of A Trespasser is chaotic but I like it, probably my favorite from Imaginary Authors.

>>15978082
You could become Jeremy with this small collection by doing what he does: make a new "top 10" video with them each day, but with a different theme and in a different order, e.g.
day 1: top 10 winter fragrances
day 2: top 10 compliment getters
day 3: top 10 of all time

I swear this is all Jeremy does, and everything he says contradicts something he said in a previous video.

I was on a weekend trip and took only New York Intense with me. Could easily make it my signature and get rid of all other bottles

Opinions on Acqua di parma colonia line? I can get them for a good price here (around 35€ for a tester) and wondering which of them are worth sampling/testing. I'm interested in: original colonia, essenza, intensa, club and pura

>>15978575
Great quality for a fair price, I own Colonia Essenza and Leather. And even though they are colognes they have nice performances
