>There are probably better ones in the niche department

I talking about niche woody fragrances. Bois Imperial really is the best in that genre.

>>17235584
Sorry fren. Guerlain heritage is a better niche woody frag

>>17235586
>Guerlain heritage

Good recommendation, gonna try it in the store today.

How many sprays?

>>17235581
I prefer debaser

>>17235590
better use the bottle up boy.

>>17235574
kek, just because you add B.I to the title OP does not mean it filters the thread

>>17235574
I need help, these are the fragrances I have so far.
I kinda wanna try Spicebomb but am currently broke.
Any other fragrances I have so far, I like all of the ones I bought except for aqua kenzo, that shit smells like clown vomit.

>>17235594
Skip them, Bois Imperial will satisfy you to the max

>>17235583
Where is Sauvage?

I really am thinking if i should go to these threads and just shill antaeus, just like the guy shilling BI, unironically it is the best thing i have smelled

>>17235591
>Debaser
Longevity seems not that great. Bois Imperial is in all category really outstanding. It captures wood notes almost realistically.
Comparing BI with Bowmakers for example is like comparing an heavy weight fighter(Bois Imperial) with a junior light weight amateur.
Dunno about Guerlain heritage, but i gonna try it today.

>>17235601
do it, if more people agree it will become a mainstay. If more people hate it, it will be forgotten.
>>17235594
why spicebomb? don't you already have stronger with you for that kind of vibe? try something like la nuit de l'homme blue electricque or bois imperial

>>17235601
Go ahead, it's a good frag. More people should shill their favorites, especially if they're lesser known like that anon who recommends Montabaco Intensivo

Probably shouldn't ask /frag/ this as I'll be sabotaged with meme replies but what's a good first date frag for shopping at a xmas market, getting coffee at a bookstore afterwards?

>>17235606
debaser has fine longevity for me, 10-14 hours. And I don't think bowmakers is in the same "woody" category as BI and your boxing analogy is fucking horrible work on that.

>>17235594
You have 3 frags you like and you're broke. Perfumes are luxury items (in theory), you should maybe not delve too deep into such a possibly expensive hobby.

>>17235611
price range?

>>17235611
Easily Stronger With You Absolutely. You will smell like the xmas market, though. Check performance at a store, though, it was good when it was released but it's a L'Oreal fragrance, they tend to water the frags down once they've gained popularity.

>>17235611
some specifics on the female?

>>17235611
Can't go wrong with
>Jazz Club
>The One
>This is Him
>Spicebomb Extreme
>Noir Extreme
>DHI
>Code Absolu, Code Profumo, OG Code
>LNDL or LNDL BE

>>17235618
She's artsy but not an art hoe, just part of her job and she likes to act tough but has a soft spot for me.
Price range is €50-120

>>17235611
YSL Yves Saint Laurent La Nuit De L'Homme

or similar Helloween Man Shot - with much better performance and price

>>17235617
>Stronger With You Absolutely
fucking nutella

>>17235601
go ahead, at least it's worth shilling. both important and memable, unlike the boring flavor of the month that is BI

>>17235611
Armani code parfum is also very good
Tested it yesterday. Huge performance.

>>17235611
Burberry London, Eau des Baux or Tobacco Vanille

>>17235631
Sad cope

>>17235635
>Burberry London
too old

>Eau des Baux
too weird smelling

>Tobacco Vanille
good but expensive

>>17235594
Do you want to get into fragrances as a hobby or what are your motivations? My personal frugal guide for fragrances is the following:
1. Always sample before buying
2. Try to get free or very cheap sample decants, you want to try out what it smells like on your skin for a whole day
3. Make sure you test the frag again, and see if you still like it.
4. If you absolutely love the fragrance, wait until it goes on sale using price checker websites, and then buy it
5. Set a specific amount of money you are willing to spend on fragrances, this will deter FOMO buying some shitty frag.

>>17235622
>She's artsy
Try some vetivers:
Molecule 03
TDH parfum, not edt and not the vetiver flanker. Parfum has enough vetiver.
Monotheme vetiver
Frederic Malle vetiver extraordinaire
Mancera Vetiver sensuel

Skip guerlain and tom ford vetivers, they are dated.

>>17235642
>fragrances as a hobby
consuming is not a hobby

What the fuck BR540's drydown is starting to smell like garlic on my skin
Maybe my nose is fucked because I had the flu until yesterday

>>17235644
Hobby ="an activity done regularly in one's leisure time for pleasure."
The only thing my guide advocated for consuming is samples.

>>17235644
>consuming is not a hobby

Kek, of couse, nigger. Cooking is consuming too, but it also can be an hobby.

>>17235648
>consuming as activity
fucking kek

>>17235652
>Cooking is consuming
No, you retard, cooking means making food.

>>17235594
skip spicebomb. overpriced, watered down and you already have two similar sweet sexy scents
get something cheap if you just want a bit more veriety. maybe This is Him or Jaipur if you're hell-bent on another sweet scent

>>17235636
what would I be coping with? I had a sample of BI and I gave it away because it was, as the kids say, mid af

>>17235652
Eating is consuming, cooking ist an activity
Retard

>>17235634
That stuff is trash in comparison. Once the L'Homme Intense-like top notes fade, it's just an iteration of the OG Code. Very redundant. Not worth the markup over the OG.

>>17235594
>Spicebomb
Don't

Get oud for glory if you want a good modern manly smell. Good for autumn.

>>17235654
>sampling as an activity
Also activity ="the condition in which things are happening or being done."
So yes consuming would be an activity. But thats beside the point. Your reading comprehension is absolutely horrible. My points were to sample, and not just consume. But your molded brain must have seen my comment and just skipped over it.

>>17235665
>consuming would be an activity
Absolutely, for a retard.

>>17235657
Dumb take. Even eating out can be a hobby.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foodie

>>17235663
>it's just an iteration of the OG Code
It is, but it is a very good modern frag with top notch performance.

>>17235672
jesus, the neckbeard gatekeeping just wont stop huh? Not even the guy you are responding to either, just sad to look at. Let people enjoy things

>>17235673
>eating is hobby

>>17235671
Good list of popular date crowdpleasers. Few gripes:
1 Million Prive is discontinued.
Code Absolu and Code Profumo might be discontinued, but I'd wait before I personally believe that. Current discontinuation hype might drive prices up.
L'Homme Ideal EdP is good for cuddling, but doesn't really project. Extreme is stronger in projection if you can get past the opening (which smells cheap to me).
Salvatore Ferragamo Uomo Signature should be mentioned together with Uomo. It's less sweet and has way more tonka and ambroxan, making it almost coffee-showergel like. Performance is sublime for the price, that stuff lasts hours.

>>17235673
you retarded fucking ape. Nobody is saying you shouldn't enjoy perfumes or any other consumptionism. It can absolutely enrich your life. The point is, calling it a hobby is what is wrong. If you are not making perfumes it's not a hobby, just a thing you enjoy consuming. I could talk hours about whiskey, beer or rum, and I have extensive collections. Doesn't make it into a hobby.

>>17235689
huh, well here where I live finding prive and both codes is no biggie still.

kek I actually like 724 more than all the other MFK samples I got. Grand Soir is good though, it's very strong but I like it, will have to see how it dries down. 724 is really clean and airy, I don't get why another anon was calling it feminine, to me it's unisex.
Meanwhile fucking BR540 is still filling up my room

>>17235706
you are a genetic freak bro. Most people go noseblind to br450 within 30 minutes and then go out and cry about it on forums whilst filling out the entire room with it. however your admiration for things with iris doesn't go unnoticed, is unwashed cock a part of your diet perhaps?

>>17235707
Hey closeted faggot, it's been a while

>>17235709
oh no. it's the faggot out in the open.

>>17235710
Still repressing those urges I see
Gonna hit me with the homoerotic reaction pics next?

>>17235711
yup.

>>17235701
I think you just have a personal subjective opinion on what a hobby should be i.e gatekeeping the term. The term legit just means "an activity done regularly in one's leisure time for pleasure.". So youre just blinded by your own opinion. In other words you have an ape mindset.

>>17235715
go out into the wilderness of society and try this bullshit you are doing here with a male audience. You are not a female. As a male "hobbies" such as eating and netflix wont fly. And the fact that you are trying to shift the goalpost with what did you mean by gatekeeping, KEK. Slit your throat you disgusting kikefed goyslob

>>17235719
> Slit your throat you disgusting kikefed goyslob
And there is the autistic sperg out. You should get a job

Will it be 1000x better than Jeremy's?

>>17235734
Maybe, its got real castoreum in it if the fag that wrote the fragrantica article read the press release properly, which put its in the try it category for me.

>>17235734
probably. we already have some good perfumes from youtubers with Mr. Smelly's brand
I'm sure they will be 1000x better than whatever The Vainest Man in Britain makes as well

>>17235704
Both Codes can still be found as of now, but the price for the bottles has ever so slightly started to go up where I live.
Meanwhile Prive is straight up 180€/100mL at the few retailers that have it. It was sub-70€ a year ago.

>>17235706
Well, that was me. 724 is feminine-leaning.
>t. DHI/DHP/DHO enjoyer
There are plenty of unisex white florals, but that stuff is definitely shifted more towards women.

>>17235707
I didn't have that problem when testing BR540 Extrait, but Grand Soir on the other arm mogged it. I had GS in my nose the whole time, only occasionally getting wafts of BR540E. Then again I think I went harder on the GS sprays, since I wanted to experience it more than BR540E.

>>17235749
I like DHI as well but to my nose 724 is just a bit more unisex than it. There also seems to be a kind of ozonic component to 724 that I don't think you mentioned when you (I'm assuming it was you) said 724 was a generic soapy floral. I would argue it's a bit more complex than that.
>Grand Soir on the other arm mogged it
Yeah it's strong as fuck. Are you guys sure this is safe to wear on dates and nights out? It's not an inoffensive fragrance.

What's the best stuff from Byredo?

>>17235751
>safe
just spay less if you are so unsecure

>>17235755
I don't like it when I'm around people who monopolize my olfactory landscape with their frag, and I'm assuming most people don't like it either

>>17235753
Anything from fragrantica top

also pulp has one of the strongest projections in the market

>>17235751
dates yes. nights out less so. It's extremely sensual to me
>>17235753
pulp smells like overripe fruit and a vegetable stall on a farmers market, it's strong like a motherfucker, after 6 or so hours turns into a very sweet, creamy fig. It's very unique but not wearable.
From more wearable stuff, check out
-Tobacco Mandarin
-Bal d'Afrique
-Gypsy Water
-Mumbai Noise
-Vanille Antique
also it's noteworthy that it has been acquired by loreal I belive, so depending on how much you hate loreal you might be reformulated within a year, or within the second you start beliving it was reformulated

>>17235736
So it will smell fecal?

>>17235794
seeing the ammount of iris enthusiasts here, it's probably their thing

>>17235794
No, castoreum is sweet and not fecal as far as animal musks go. Just never fall for the hyracium meme, that smells like dried piss and shit, because it is dried piss and shit.

>>17235798
take your fantasies to >>>/lgbt/

Just a bit longer until it gets cool enough to wear this. Can't fucking wait.

>>17235802
why are repressed iris fags like this? you like to eat feces in berlin. it's morally fucked up, you will end up in hell, but in todays "society" it's widely accepted so just stfu and enjoy your life goy

>>17235812
>penorbrut
why.

>>17235814
>projecting this hard
kek you have serious issues

>>17235815
Maybe because it's very masculine? I dunno.

>Guerlain heritage
>Caron le3
>Caron pour homme
>Caron yatagan
>Guerlain habit rouge
>Guerlain vetiver

Does it compare to any of these? I love the older style frags. I feel like they were better composed. I’ve been wanting to try Anteus and egoiste

>>17235606
Glad you’re going to try heritage. My favorite parts about it is the lavender opening and sandalwood dry down

Asking again: what is the “green chart” I always thought that there are only these two
>>17235583
>>17235580

1 : expert especially : one who understands the details, technique, or principles of an art and is competent to act as a critical judge a connoisseur of music. 2 : one who enjoys with discrimination and appreciation of subtleties

Hey friends, glad the chart is still in use >>17235580
Do you guys think there's room for an update or is it still good?

>>17235757
>most people don't like it
unless it actually smells good

>>17235631
> flavor of the month
It’s been a flavor of the month fragrance for like the past 12 months. Perhaps there something to this fragrance that you don’t want to admit just out of spite?

>>17235852

Bischfags, explain pic related.

Alright I ordered my next batch of samples and if after that there's still nothing I can conceivably see myself adopting as a signature scent I'll just default back to BI and leave this general forever. This "hobby" is honestly a waste of money. Any "hobby" that only involves passively consuming products is worthless.

>>17235864
I want to sample it. I wonder what kind of vibe it has, never tried Malle before

>>17235859
>Do you guys think there's room for an update or is it still good?
Both charts should be updated, at least the discontinued frags should be replaced.
H24, BI, and Ganymede were mentioned as possible additions.

>>17235881
>at least the discontinued frags should be replaced
Agreed. I still have the .ai file so updating it would be pretty straightforward

Im getting 2 new fragrances for my first one im gonna go with givenchy gentleman EDP (the newest one). the second one im think about eitherr dg the one edp intense or issey miyake nuit dissey POLARIS. i have nuit dissey pulse of the night and its meh so im not sure about polaris.
Which one should i get THE ONE EDP INTENSE or NUIT DISSEY POLARIS

>>17235812
Where can I get affordable samples of their frags in the US?

>>17235859
Hi Layton, there was an extensive discussion and the gist is: kick out discontinued frag, include Bois Imperial by Essential Parfums as it conquered hearts of many in this thread in no time and is a legit good affordable woody fragrance.

>>17235865
What’s wrong with this chart? The guy in the precious thread said that it’s some “schizo” stuff and it seems fairly normal and informative. Is this some inside joke?

>>17235574
Notice and word of warning for based Bois Imperial (BI) shillers:
it has been brought to my attention that certain low-IQ individuals simply cannot handle the superiority of BI over their favourite (inferior) fragrances, and have sheepishly resorted to filtering out those of us with taste, excluding posts (via the 4chan-x extention) with such phrases as "BI", "bois imperial", "B.I", etc.
For future reference, when promoting Sir. Bisch's product on the thread, please refrain from using the intuitive name for the fragrance, and instead use your preferred obscure term for the fragrance to evade the plebians' phrase filter.

Examples of potential alternative phrases include, but are not limited to: "B-I", "Bo1s 1mperi4I", "holy grail", "1305 1M93RIA1" etc.

Thank you for you patience and cooperation in these trying times, and keep doing the Lord's work, gentlemen.

>>17235904
The chart is fine, but the guy who created it is (rightfully) known as masstige schizo.

>>17235867
Turin alrwady did that
>Attaquer le Soleil Marquis de Sade (Etat Libre d’Orange) 4/5 stars
>green labdanum
>Perfumer Quentin Bisch claims that this fragrance was done to address his prejudice against cistus, a.k.a. labdanum or the resin of the rockrose, a sort of exposure therapy for a workplace phobia. He’s done it with a harmony of green and resinous tones true to the material but extra, with the strong rich smells of paint and glue that some of us frankly find better than roses. It ties together the animalic, the mineral and the vegetal in one huge eerie accord that feels like the final answer to a medieval theological question.

>>17236010
im having trouble getting YSL any variation for a good price. end up going on ebay and watching auctions for some of them, over $100 I leave. I thought loreal were going to discontinue uomo. damn how many companies does loreal own!?

>>17236069
what the fuck are you even talking about? I said that the chart is fine

>>17236051
depends on your skin and how much you sweat. ask someone, a half hour later, after you sprayed a decent amount if they can smell it, adjust from there.

I may rub some people the wrong way, however. Skip the cheap designer phase. Leap right over the sauvage, spice bomb, ultramale, Bleu de Chanel, Aventus&Clones, layton... you know where I'm going.

A good general rule of thumb is, if fragrance isn't a brands original and main export, stay away.

You don't necessarily have to go niche, but you have to do your own homework and effort. No one is going to spoonfeed you their secret-weapons, and the people who do are shills (which this sub is obviously heavily influenced by). The stuff I buy sells out fast in limited batches, why the f#$&, would I want more competition? So I can pay more due to increased demand?

I don't mean to come off elitist or audacious, we are still here to have fun and enjoy the hobby. Think of it like music, start doing some exploring yourself instead of listening to the radio.

It's better to have one absolute BANGER of a perfume than to have 10 meh, quality over quantity imo.

I'm not going to name my collection, half because I'm lazy, and other half previously stated. But with a little bit of homework and effort (also previously stated) you can figure it all out. (Also if you look lower right drawer, those are my unloved step children designer frags, that do not deserve to share the same platform as the bangers.

Sorry for lengthy rant, I hope someone gets value instead of just rustling Jimmies. Just saying the stuff I wish I heard when I first started. - one house recommendation: Meleg.

Nigga please, you’ve attentionwhored with photos of your collection hundreds of times. No one who’s been around for 1year+ here won’t buy your “a mysterious patrician suddenly coming out of the bushes to spread words of wisdom” you having both a dozen of Rojas and Bortnikoffs/TRNP/Meleggs just show how much of a confused noselet you are.

>>17236102
> I originally wrote it up for all the young men posting almost the exact same collection, obviously programmed by YouTube shills
Your not much better than them in all honesty. You like crowdpleasers (like your Roja Dove which is less niche than many warm-spicy designer scents), yet you don’t have a single designer frag. Your taste seem to run vintage judging by like 50% of your bottles yet you don’t own a single vintage fragrance and prefer to buy overpriced, limited-run releases that often just try to mimic the greatness of old Guerlains, Carons, Fragonards etc. Even if you listened closer to what the perfumers standing behinds these brands that you love so much have to say, you’d understand you’re in the wrong here. Your modus operandi is just expensive=good, bud and it’s painful to read your pretentious posts seeing through that. Even your selection is not original and basically as someone above says redundant to what Wafts like. I can see why people deride your collection here

>>17236184
It's hard, because Bois Imperial is the only frag worth purchasing, beaides Cool Water and Antaeus.

>>17236216
I like Antaeus, I would get a bottle but my dad wears it. Is there nothing else you can recommend?

>>17236143
Seething poor fag. You’re no authority neither. Give me your top three summer and fall frags nöw nigger

>>17236216
Good morning/afternoon, I hope this post finds you well, anon. You recommendation is superb, however for future BI recommendations please refer to the following post:

Once again, many thanks for your continued support of the cause.

kek BI shitposters are unironically the best part of this general

>>17236206
Maybe you can't see or infer, but my collection is majority oud, which is antithesis of crowdpleaser. Just because (my only roja) enigma is front row (which I got 45% off) doesn't mean it taints the rest of the juice. Retail is for suckas, everything you see here as been bought at discount, minus a few which are impossible to find reduced.

How is my selection not original? Have you seriously heard of alguien and angelos creation olfactives? Get the fuck out of here you larper.

>>17235859
Hello, person with non-secure trip code that I could bruteforce in roughly 7 minutes that I have never heard of because I don't read trips.
It's still good, although some frags were discontinued. Bulgari Black should be kicked out and Fahrenheit should be chosen as the starter in that region. Some people want to include Ganymede, which could be a worthy addition. Neither BI or H24 would be worth adding, as both are rather uninteresting (BI) or non-appealing (H24) to niche-lovers.

>>17236102
Funny thing is that you spend 1000 of bucks of expensive niche fragrance that smell either shit or like cheap designer(sedley, layton etc.).
Then i smelled Bois Imperial and realised that snobs who buy expensive scents and think they have a better product, really are that wrong.

>>17236255
BI is very good and reinvented the blue frag genre, you just have bad taste.

>>17235859
It would be a good idea to first remove the frags that have been discontinued and aren't available anymore, and to include some of the frags that are frequently discussed here and popular in the frag community in general.

>Gucci Guilty Black
I discovered this recently and no one talks about it. Cheap green designer frag, I love it.

>>17235865
That's not the green chart, isn't it? There was a second compilation.

>>17235940
Hey, look, there's my pic in there. You can add this pic, if you want. I thought about posting it first, but then decided to go for all the frags which are better than BI.

BI is still mediocre.

>>17236102
Buddy, you have a whole bottle of L'Oudh in there. I don't even care about the whole Roja thing, but that stuff is the last Tauer frag one should buy.

>>17236206
Forgot to add, the TRNP is only $110 usd retail, it's not all super pricey juice.

>>17236256
I've never sampled, but usually ambroxan, super iso e and other synthetics give me headaches. - unless I got the wrong frag in mind.

>>17236172
Thanks for literally the only positive or neutral comment that isn't laden with poor cope.

>>17236274
>calls BI mediocre
>shills Dior

Anyway, which Tauer frags are good aside from LDDM and Lonestar?

fuck i just tried BI and it is quite nice

>>17236275
>I've never sampled, but usually ambroxan, super iso e and other synthetics give me headaches. - unless I got the wrong frag in mind.

Try Bois Imperial, it pulls off ambroxan the correct way.

>>17236281
Welcome to the club

>>17236279
Unironically everything from Dior beats BI.

>>17236287
Delusional. Only DHI and some Christian Dior frags like Bois Argent are in the same league even.

>>17236287
you see, the diference is, only raging faggots that want to eat feces wear dior fragrances from the non-boutique line. Your judgmemt mr.berliner is clouded. Men that like to engage in pounding pussy and platonic friendship with other Men, can understand the true beauty of BOIIS IMPERIALE.
I think you might need to do a quick check up on r/blownasshole or r/malegape and do a poll about the dior homme line, trying the containment /lgbt/ board might be worth a shot as well, however most people there have a different mental illness than homosexualism thus the poll results might be skewed.

>>17236275
>y-you’re just p-poor
Holy shit, i laughed out loud for real it’s hilarious that this is your comeback after multiple people calling out you

You know that Roja uses it a lot, right? Lmao

BI shitposts is the best thing that happened to this thread lol

>>17236255

so what? "niche-lovers" are obviously not the target audience of the chart(s)

>>17236102
>The stuff I buy sells out fast in limited batches, why the f#$&, would I want more competition?
Nobody cares about your meme frags from russian adam, that guy is only good at marketing when it comes to perfumery he is a hack.

>>17236307
well in that case the fragrances don't need to be included either because neither bi nor h24 are mass-appealing

>>17236328
You're utterly full of shit lmao
Both of them are as mass pleasing as it gets while still being interesting.

>>17236328
buy 1ml sample of BI, let your mother smell it. Enjoy while it lasts.

>>17236102
damn I'm pretty sure I could buy my attainable dream car in good condition if I sold all those...

You should do giveaways of your designer cheapies here, my europoor ass could use some Encre Noir.

Ignore the hate, it's the shills mad you don't own any BI or Bisch frags mixed with some poorfag cope. I agree you should add designers if you like them, not just niche. There are some very valid classics under 50 bucks for 100 ml.

whats your verdict on the jeremy fragrance brothers beef

>>17236345
>damn I'm pretty sure I could buy my attainable dream car in good condition if I sold all those...

>>17236361
BI is the GOAT. Stop resisting it.

>>17236361
look chap, I like how DHI smells too, but I also instinctually understand that it is how faggots, that want to get double digit number of wieners in their arseholes, like to smell. If your 2nd job is something like a cleaning slave nr.5? then maybe you can pull DHI off. Otherwise you are just lying to yourself and everybody around you.

>>17236349
>VW corrado
looks right up my alley, never seen before.
Either a Honda Prelude or a MRS.
>>17236355
DH line is feminine lipsticky shit, BI is probably good seeing the people rating it on forums, never smelled it, never said it was bad or good of course, you retards still need to stop spamming. It would be annoying and useless with any frag, even the best in the world. The quality of the frag was never the point but your pee-sized brains don't get it.
>>17236374
are you retarded or have you not watched SW. Hating DH was the good thing, being an obnoxious cunt not so much.

>Perhaps there something to this fragrance that you don’t want to admit just out of spite
not really. it's a competent basic woody frag at a decent price, but nothing worth anywhere near the amount of attention it's getting in this thread.
it's the definition of a forced meme, there is nothing inherently memable about it like there is about Kouros, One Man Show Gold Edition or even Eros and Sauvage to a degree

I'd say The One Intense but again I'd sample both if you can

>>17236800
yeah i sampled gentleman and loved it even got a few compliments
for the 2nd one i was thinking about either polaris or the one intense but i think ill just get the one intense after seing all the positive comments about it

I can dig that. Though I don't remember there being cherry in that one.

make it into a reality. 5 sprays of Bl around your neck, two sprays of ganymede on each wrist, and 3 on da chest. the final touches are 1 spray of Shalimar on your dick , two sprays of Hyrax behind you knees.

Can I get a normie fragrance recommendation?

And no for the love of god I'm not autistic, I'm not reading that flow chart. Besides, I don't actually know what I like

>hurr durr how have you made it to adulthood and you don't know what smells you like

I had surgery as an adult that took my sense of smell of the smell equivalent of legally blind to 20/15. So no, I have no clue whether I like vanilla or lavender or honeydew more, and I'm not about to try 50 million samples just to figure it out.

Here's what I can provide - I'm looking for something to wear in the fall, I live in a south/midwest city (so it's hot, but humidity is not an issue), I go into a tech office 1-3x a week, I like to swing dance, and I like to dress nice - I wear a lot of tailored wool and linen pants/chinos. The shirts I'm a little more understated, just usually a tailored bonobos polo or maybe an outlet polo, occasionally an OCBD. Same for the shoes. Just some old used brown AE's & black AE's.

What stands out about me - I have nipple length hair. but I don't smoke weed, i dont give off stoner vibes. I'm also pretty small and short, so... i mean... idk, i doubt my cologne should be giving off paul bunyan vibes (but i am pretty handy by hobby). I'm not a check flannel type of guy if you know what i mean.

I just want something everyone around me will appreciate. I couldn't give two flying fucks about standing out, I would rather just be timelessly well presented. Oh and i'd appreciate it if it's something that's easy to acquire. You know, available on ebay or at nordstroms or whatever the fuck you consider "easy to access".

>>17235590
Tbf I got a 200ml bottle a year ago and yesterday decided to use it again, the thing is that due to maceration it performed actualy quite well

>>17236531

>>17237275
it is surprisingly good but again, I'm not too picky on fragrances. it reminds me of the new Kenzo Homme EDP, which makes sense bc it is made by the same perfumer and has akigalawood in it too. I love it

>>17237265
La Nuit de L'Homme. AdG is just another boring aquatic, although it is partially at fault for creating the genre. They should have stopped at Cool Water, anything more aquatic than that is/was a mistake.

yes, very distinct dna and she likes to pump orris root into everything

her fragrances are definitely very niche and require a few wears to get into, but once you are familiar with a certain fragrance, you wanna come back to it. love the fact that everything is extrait

Thank you to the anon who talked about Strawanza some months back. Got a chance to try it today and instantly got myself a bottle. I really like it. If you read this, how would you rate the performance? I know it's eau de cologne concentration but I've read comments online that say it lasts surprisingly long.

> This perfume is one of the best deconstructions I have encountered all without anyone on the creative team using the word. The next time I do hear someone use it I’m going to point at Bois Imperial as how you construct a deconstructed perfume.
Glad to see that professional fragrance reviewers understand why BI is a truly niche and aspiring fragrance. The fact that it’s so ambitious creation and so easy to wear at the same time amazes me every time I wear it.

I really enjoy the scents of vanilla, smoke, and petrichor. Any suggestions for something with these notes?

>>17237431
I don’t know what is petrichor but go buy Fahrenheit Parfum, it has vanilla in it.

>>17237433
petrichor is that smell after the rain.

>>17237420
>so ambitious creation and so easy to wear at the same time
Is there anything else in that particular category?

>>17237454
Encre Noir maybe ?

>>17237457
It's not as mass pleasing but maybe

>>17237287
Kek, how will the BI schizo explain this? Is it also a „paid BI shill” who wrote this article? I don’t feel good broskis… I thought that there’s only one person in this thread who likes BI…

>>17237458
It is also not as niche as Bois Imperial to be fair…

>>17237497
It's not. Bois Imperial is the best woody fragrance in designer and niche section.

>>17237499

Encre Noir is hardly complex, it's almost a pure vetiver scent. Chanel Sycomore is a more complex version of Encre Noir.
Bois Impérial is overall a perfect mix, it's enjoyable for the mainstream and complex enough for the snob. I love it so much.
