Outside of TV, TL, Noir Extreme and GV what are the other essential Tom Ford frags to try?
Getting through a sample of Grey Vetiver EDP and I might just cop a bottle for work onces the decants I cycle through for work run out...

I'd say Black Orchid and Neroli Portofino.

Try Fucking Fabulous and Lost Cherry. I own FF and am trying to get a bottle of LC currently. Both are very interesting and very snice, though won’t be to everyone’s taste. They’re both limited editions, so try them now so you can still get a bottle if you like them.

I know, I love Layton. Honestly, Layton and Oajan are the only PDMs I'd buy a full bottle of, after having tried almost all of their masculines (besides shit like Byerly). Herod would be my third choice, followed by Carlisle, Habdan, Godolphin, and Nisean.

I haven't found anything in the tobacco/woody/sweet category I like as much as Herod. For me it's better than Tobacco Vanille.

See, to me, that one’s the easiest to beat. You’ve got Roja Enigma, Kilian Back to Black, even things like Slumberhouse Norne and Kiste (though those are admittedly a bit different. You also have things like Mancera Red Tobbaco. There are just a ton of sweet-woody-tobacco scents out there.

[Anonymous No.14080392]

>>14080354
I've sampled Enigma and thought it was pretty different, much heavier on the booze and plummy, jam like notes, nice but different. Red Tobacco, I don't know, there was something in it I didn't like, some note that just smelled bad to me, maybe I should give it another try sometime. Haven't tried Back to Black because the pricing of By Killian samples is exorbitant but I wanna get my hands on it, plus Chergui.

True, Enigma does have a pretty different vibe. Back to Black is very snice. Has a lot going on, tobacco, cherry, ginger and other snices, great honey note, very interesting stuff. It is expensive, but very much worth a try.

Kilian’s Black Phantom is worth a look as well, if you like spicy-smoky-gourmand scents. Very odd, and won’t be for everyone, but it kind of smells like... smoky peanut butter with rum and coffee, but in a very pleasant way, if that makes any sense.

What the fuck was Jerememe thinking. Fragrance One: Office for Men, not a bad idea, an almost modernist purely utilitarian name and design that would suit made into a series of low-middle cost frags along the same lines; club, evening, etc.

Then he decides he wants to *clap* and *spin* off an entirely different direction deep into niche pricing territory, where "office for men" is deeply uninspiring.

Not even nice territory, like I said above, his new price is 480.00, and that’s in euros. That more than they sell the main Roja line extrait bottles for at De Bijenkorf in Amsterdam. That’s fucking insane. Jeremy’s pricing his fragrance at the upper end of the niche spectrum. Only things like the Roja Luxe line and the like are more expensive.

Huh. I found them to be basically identical, personally. Maybe just the stronger projection of the EDP makes it more cloying, I dunno. Either way, go with whichever you prefer. It’s just that for most people, the EDP will probably be sufficient. Just saves them like 100.00.

Looking for recs for a general daytime scent and also for something else to wear for social/nighttime occasions.

ombre leather is pretty challenging but I am really not a fan of the more hardcore leather scents in general. oud wood and jazz club are much safer and more conventional than they seem by looking at a note breakdown.

that's just my opinion, as stated I am not a fan of leather centric scents in general. it's really just quinoline with not much else to balance it out so it's a no from me, tuscan leather is a little more even with the raspberry note. i cannot see how it warrants any comparison to the floral and woody gourmand dior homme with a very smooth leather base.

[Anonymous No.14084655]

>>14084506
Interesting. I find the leather in TL to be much more "quinoline." The jasmine in OL acts much like the raspberry in TL imo.

>i cannot see how it warrants any comparison to dior homme
I mean, yeah, they don't really smell alike (although they are both leather/floral dominant). I just imagine them being appropriate in the same situations - OL leaning more casual and masculine.

don't get me wrong im not big on tuscan leather either just think its a bit more balanced(I think its because jasmine tends to come off a bit animalic to me like in jean patou joy). I dont see dh as leather dominant, mostly a beautiful carrotty gourmand with some clean(non pungent) leather in the base. I do respect ombre leather and tuscan leather for what they are, its just not for me

I've finally got it. Prices were outrageous but I've kept searching and finally found a decent bargain.

Everything you've read about it is true: soapy, fabric softener kind of scent. It's a frag outstanding in a sense of how comfortable it makes me feel. Sensation of being clean and fresh coming from vetiver and neroli. Iris notes are pretty mild compared to Prada l'Homme and especially compared to Dior Homme line. This iris makes me feel like I am in my bed falling asleep after a hot shower. This is so snice. I love it.

Purchased Ginepro Di Sardegna and Colonia Essenza today. Thanks for the advice whoever that might have been.

I tried ADP leather and although it’s a nice smell I don’t really understand what the appeal of smelling like a 6ft wallet is.

[Anonymous No.14085373]

>>14085317
Following on from this, I tried Fico Di Amalfi and it’s heavenly. That said I feel the sweetness is a little much for me and I suspect the high heat will make it worse. Ginepro is much more understated and seems to have more depth to it. Plus I think the heat will make it even better and the fact Juniper is rarely something you notice others wearing it should stand out without being a big bold fragrance that asserts its presence.

As for Essenza, it still has the freshness of Colonia, but again, more depth. I think the problem with Colonia is that it smells nice on card and the citrus really shines, but honestly the drydown smells too much like the soap in the toilets at work and I just can’t deal with that. It’s a nice smell, but it reminds me of old men shitting.

My bad. Opens up with a nice soft lavender bergamot combo. Really doesn't smell like other scents from it's time. Not old man at all. About hour into it a green spicy mix (cinnamon, artemisa, cypress) starts to emerge and lasts for for the majority of the time. In the far dry down you're left with a very nice ambery musk smell. I don't get any oakmoss in this version which is unfortunate but it makes this scent not smell like an old man. This is much more smoother then many other scents from it's time. If you wear this today you would definitely smell unique. Overall I would say it is a good buy if you don't have a lot of old school scents.

Nothing, it's just an overrated fragrance. People talk of the beautiful "sandlewood". Shit, everybody that wore it back in the day agreed that it smelled like shower curtain and margarine by the end of the day. I haven't smelled the current formulation but I'm sure it's be reformulated so this is going by the vintage. At least Obsession had a bit of masculinity, Egoiste was way too feminine. You want sandllewood, Tam Dao is still your best bet. That's a frag I'm glad is getting hyped around here. Of course, I'm an old fuck and what I look for in fragrances has changed since I used to be the the literal Chad Miasma. We could take the paint off the wall with the amount we used to spray.

I was thinking Guerlain. They all share a lot of characteristics (guerlinade) while allowing for a multi-faceted collection. I also like the idea of the visual symmetry with all the bottles

is this a retarded idea?

Try both. They're already in your cart.

for me, its a signature accord. even though I'm sure I will grow out of that too.

Signature house isn't necessarily a bad idea, as many have a distinct dna, but you gotta break the rules or you'll get bored and miss out on a lot.

the perfumed court, it's in the OP

I didn't really want to try the edt and edp for every fragrance, I was hoping there was a general consensus. from what I've read the edp is much more muted

I havent tried Do Son but I would say, if price isnt a concern get the EDP. If it is get the EDT. They likely aren't significantly different, but its, what, $40 more for 15ml less juice? Or $60 more for 15ml more juice, depending on the size you get.
The edp will probably last longer and have a richer (perhaps more muted) scent.

diptyques edps aren't worth the price. i've tried both concentration of both tam dao and philosykos and i preferred the edts. i don't notice any difference in performance and i noticed the edps turn powdery and into a skin scent quicker (i guess there is a difference in preformance kek). this was way more evident in philosykos. the edt is fresh and fruity, juicy like fig should smell, and the edp was way too sweet. it was a bit richer but that type of vibe doesn't bode well with fig. all in all i'm not impressed with thier edps. their edts are still masterpieces to me tho.

Yeah maybe. I have tried Tam Dao edt and edp side by side multiple times and ultimately chose edt, but my next bottle is going to be edp just for the sake deciding definitively.

>is gucci guilty absolute really discontinued?
Hey man, i work in an Australian store. For the past year and a half we haven't had any testers in, they ran out world wide apparently. But, we will be always selling it. It was the first male fragrance by Alessandro Michele & famous fragrance man i can't remember. Try the blackberry one or the new one if you dig a non floral fragrance.
