Before it became a full on tiktok sub I liked how people sometimes would post a small collection of actual legit good stuff and got 100+ replies like
>You need to check out Naxos
>You don't have any gourmands, have you tried Layton?
>You don't have any niche, I'm sure you'd love Imagination

Just blind bought Layton Exclusif. What am I in for?

Just anecdotally, I've personally found there is very little difference in reactions to high end brands and typical designer slop. Really one in my circle of family and friends knows anything about fragrances but me (the women usually feel some kind of way about at least a few brands because perfume and cosmetics are intrinsically linked, but 99% of men I know could not give less of a fuck unless they're asking me for advice on what to buy), and when I ask for their opinions, I've never noticed them gravitate toward the high end stuff more than the cheaper stuff, it's a fairly even split.

I try not to lead them, either. If the fragrance retails for $400 I don't tell them until after, and I buy fragrances frequently enough that they no longer care about my feelings toward any one of them. If they don't really like it, they can just say so without having to worry about my feelings because I have ten gorillian fragrances so who cares.

Although, weirdly, I do tend to get more unsolicited compliments from strangers when I wear expensive shit. And I mean that (almost) literally. PDM and Creed have gotten me more compliments than any of my weird nichey fragcom-approved fragrances. My most complimented fragrances from strangers are Layton, Pegasus, Carlisle, Viking and Aventus. And funny enough, I'm wearing an F-batch Aventus and that's the one fragcom hates most. I firmly believe that Blackrock/Kering did something to improve performance. I've owned other batches (mind you, they weren't the REALLY old batches everyone loved, but it was pre-buyout) and they rarely if ever pulled unsolicited compliments. But loud, attention grabbers always pull more compliments simply because people can smell them better.

As for the online hate, luxury brands have a much higher bar to clear. As they should. No one is going to get pissed if a $15 fragrance sucks, but if you're charging $400 people will much less forgiving. At that price it had better be fucking amazing.

Literally one of the best price value on the market
Layton is overpriced but fuck it I'm not a brokie and the smell is gorgeous

>>18126429
You mean layton exclusiv

Just bought Dylan Blue for the summer
I'll buy Layton for the winter in a few months

It's a real strange one for me. I'm fairly easy to please and can find something I like in each of the big popular meme fragrances. I think Aventus smells nice, I think Layton smells nice, I think Angels Share smells nice, I think Enigma smells nice. I've never smelled a fragrance in my life that was actually worth over 400 dollars, but I can easily understand why people like all of those. BR540 is something I genuinely do not get. I don't think it's hideous, I don't change seats on the subway when someone is wearing this, but it's not something I find remotely appealing or attractive. It's synthetic in the worst way. I can't even really tell what it's trying to smell like, it just smells like sweet chemicals

VGH...LAYTON

>>18106150
Layton

>>18100936
Don't listen to that seether. I haven't smelled that one specifically so I can't vouch for the accuracy, but the Detour Noir is very close to Layton, so if that's any indication then yeah.

And feel free to keep posting in these threads, btw.

Is this as good as people say, especially for that price? I've heard it shares many similarities with Layton

>Brothers… should I blind buy GG Absolute?
No? Are you poor? Buy Layton.

>Layton is pretty good
>false
Correct. I was just being modest. It's fair to say that Layton is the second best men's fragrance on the market today. The best is Layton Exclusif

>>18099701
thank you florida schizo
>>18099702
>Layton is pretty good
false

>>18099700
Nah, Layton is pretty good. Especially if they've toned down the geranium like everybody keeps saying. Too mentholated, but that's its only real flaw.

>>18099689
Mowgli hates Layton and anything else made after 1965

>>18099698
but there is everything wrong with layton (and being a creepy gay groomer uncle).
