#fragranceautism

>>13412526
No way this is a real thing somebody believes

Thinking of dishing out on a bottle of Aventus after really enjoying a sample, but the whole batch code/reformulation debate is making me hesitant. Is it just a mixture of anosmia and autism that is leading people to slate the new batches? Would it still be worth it even if the batch happens to brecent?

>>13412570
Sure. The batches are different but not so extreme as to warrant an avoidance of the fragrances all together.

what are peoples opinions on this? any good?

>>13412570

If you're worried about batches then you're better off buying a 2.5 or a 4 oz because those are still the older batches before Creed changed it to 1.7 and 3.4oz and supposedly reformulated. I have a 4oz from 2016, 8-10 hour performance even though I go anosmic after an hour.

Reply to this with the name of your favorite fragrance and say why.

>>13412592
dior sauvage, good all round and lasts a long time on the skin

>>13412579
Its a very unique and nice fragrance. Its a fresh natural smelling fragrance, but its expensive as hell and IMO not worth the price. If you are looking for something natural smelling and fresh aura look for the "Un Jardin" collection from Hermes. They don't smell much alike, but have the same natural and fresh vibe.

But at least get a sample of NP because its a interesting frag and kinda hard to understand its complexities. If you are a beginner, start by Mugler Cologne (im going to get alot of hate for that) since its a simple, cheap frag and has alot of neroli on it.

>>13412508
Dylan blue is a plebcore tier frag. Very synthetic and brings nothing different to the market of mens fragrances.

Don't blind buy, its a mass appealing fragrance but not for everyone.

>>13412513
It's a really nice fragrance. Easily an 8/10 fragrance
Girls may like it, but usually they don't enjoy sweet/creamy frags as we do. Go for something more generic/aquatic/mass appealing frag if you're looking for compliments.

>>13412592
Dior Fahrenheit. I love cars and machines in general. Smells like gasoline, with burnt leather and i really like it. Has alot of personality and its a iconic fragrance that no one ever made something quite like it.

>>13412499
Hey fragrance /fa/gs, I'm an Indian dude living in Canada and I realize from personal experience and from stereotypes that Indians tend to smell like Indian food. What fragrance should I purchase to help mask that smell and smell more floral?

>>13412650
Club de Nuit Intense Man

>>13412660
Thanks!

At this rate the general may aswell do cum tributes for frags

>>13412677

TBT the time an anon took a dick pick with Amouage Lyric Man

>>13412650
1 Million ;^)

>>13412592
Roja Enigma.

Best oriental/gourmand on the planet, imo. Boozy (inb4 autism) cola with a beautiful jasmine note, and one of the best, most natural smelling vanilla notes I’ve ever smelled. As a bonus, it lasts forever. I get 10-12 hours from the EDP, and it lingers on clothes basically until I wash them.

I just wish it weren’t so damned expensive.

>>13412641
Is Fahrenheit a good frag for just cruising around in a bomber, black chinos and NBs whilst blaring Eurobeat like I'm on the Touge?

>>13412579
Absolutely love it, but it's just too expensive to justify a full bottle. Plus when I wear it I sit around smelling myself.

>>13412579
I smelled this at a store and holy shit... it's absolutely amazing. I should say I'm a guy who finds the whole deal about perfume fuckery ridiculous and doesn't buy into a lot of the bullshit going on here or in forums, but seriously this one is great. Even a pleb like me can tell how well blended and high quality this is, but it's just so insanely expensive that it's not worth buying.

>>13412680

Is TFNP the new Eros?

>>13412796
I think it was the old Eros

>>13412796
No way. Eros is something that 20 year olds wear when thot-hunting in some suburb club. NP is more in the vein of green/fresh scents. It's an inoffensive every day/work place scent really. Nothing extraordinary. It's just perfectly blended and smells super pleasing.

Just bought Versace Blue Jeans for summer, really good just wish the smell would last longer

Is it normal that I barely can feel the scent of one fragrance after using it to school everyday for a couple months?

>>13412579
i find the FORTE version to be better. (which sucks cuz i have a 100ml of this ugh)

Aquatics.


Rightfully shit on as being generic, but they do perform well in heat and humidity. However if you wear one you risk smelling like every other guy.

What to do?

Dig a little, find an aquatic with a twist.


Try Fan de Fendi Aqua and Polo Blue EDP, they have a similar twist: Leather in an aquatic. Blue EDP has suede, Fendi has a darker leather similar to Bvlgari Man in Black. The leather notes make them a little more mature than the average aquatic and way more depth.

>>13412857
Yes. Your nose/sensory system gets used to the scent and blends it out after a while.

>>13412570
There is a difference in top notes, mostly about the percentage of pineapple, currant, and apple.
And "smokiness" of birch may vary, but not significant, you should not care.

>>13412949
The birch has been removed or decreased in strength for the past two or three years, that's why the new batches are more fruit forward.

Take 30ml of current Aventus, buy some decent birch essential oil, add a few drops and boom. You're going to have something very, very close to the old 12-13 batches.

>>13413038
>The birch has been removed or decreased in strength for the past two or three years

is there any proof of that? Maybe the old batches just seem darker because they've been sitting around for years and the top notes have faded

>>13413062
No. fuck off.

>>13412886
Just wear Acqua Di Gio Profumo

>>13413038
>having to doctor a product that sells for $4 per mL
No other company makes its customers jump through such hoops in search of product consistency. It's incredible that they have such rabid loyalty among a certain portion of the fragrance community.

With that said, my two bottles of genuine Aventus each varied in their proportions of fruit and birch, and each bottle's individual character changed with age. I now have all versions of the Pineapple Vintage line except for Beyond Noir, and I layer them according to my mood. PV Intense is a perfectly idealized modern Aventus, heavy on the fruit with even more pineapple than the original and just enough birch to register as Aventus. Intense Noir features the same core and adds something completely unique - actual smoke, as in burning wood, campfire smoke, rather than "smoky" birch tar. I was really turned off by this at first, but holy shit the longevity and the sillage of the Intense Noir version are off the charts. A few sprays from my new bottle on a test blotter had my entire home smelling of Aventus for three days. And when sniffed at range rather than up close, the campfire nature of the smoke fades away and just becomes part of the characteristic "Aventus" accord. A very neat trick.

I wouldn't say that I'm totally over Aventus but I don't see myself buying any more bottles once my remaining 2 ounces are spent. There are just too many strong alternatives within its genre now, and an entire range of high quality clones.

>>13413064
>No.
yeah, thought so. Why are people so fanatical over such an average fragrance

OP I love shelter island what a comfy fragrance :)

>>13413074
Wow, you just sold me on Intense Noir. I was already in love with PVI and Emerald Isle, now I'm almost tempted to try everything they've got

>>13413074
>having to doctor a product that sells for $4 per mL


Oh fuck no, I refuse to pay retail for Creed.


I got 30ml of 17V01 for 50 bucks with the birch added, and it's damn close to the small samples of 12 and 13 I had.

Facebook groups are your best friend when it comes to Creed, Tom Ford, Montale, MFK and other "mainstream" niche houses for splits.

I'm am going to look into Intense Noir, have you smelled their two versions of GIT?

>>13413064
Dude there's no official proof of any reformulation but you're noseblind as fuck if you can't tell the difference between 13, 15, and 17 batches.


Creeds quality control sucks cock, and not even in a good way. I'm not a huge fan of Aventus, I like it enough to buy decants but I'm not a fanboy and even I can tell the difference.

>>13413065
Or try something else that every reviewer hasn't dick ridden for years?

>>13413139
>No official proof
I've been saying forever that batch/reformulation autism wat utter bullshit. Thanks for proving it.

>>13413156
You've got an interesting definition of proof if my thoughts count as it.

>>13413142
Lol just go wear zoologist then you contrarian fuck

I'm coming to the most knowledgeable fragrance forum seeking help.

I'm looking for a niche fragrance with a prominent mint note. Preferably something with above average longevity. All recommendations are appreciated.

>>13413266
>mint
bruh do you wanna smell like a cuck, it's amber vanilla tobacco year round

>>13413266
I've heard good things about Xerjoff Renaissance.

>>13413282
What's wrong with mint?

>>13413283
I have a sample of this coming tomorrow.

>>13413286
Will check it out. Thanks.

>>13413266
Speaking of which, are there any good designers with mint that aren't Eros-like sweet? Maybe I should try Tommy Cologne?

>>13413266
memoir man - not good for summer though, its a darker heavy scent
menthe fraiche
geranium pour monsieur

>>13413286
I second this. Mint with vetiver and ivy. Very green scent, a little earthy, a little woody, very arid smelling. One of the more underrated Amouage scents in my opinion, probably because of its silly name.

>>13413142
You realize a reviewer’s job is literally to review scents, right? If they like it, they say they like it. That’s the whole point of the thing. If lots of reviewers like a scents, guess what? Maybe it’s actually a good fucking scent and popular for a reason, you absolute retard.

>>13413292
Nothing, mint is fantastic. He’s just being shitposting. Ignore that faggot.

>>13413266
Creed Royal Water has a nice mint note. Mint, basil, ambergris, and citrus. Very nice stuff. Unfortunately, the longevity is pretty poor. Still worth sampling, though.

I'm surprised it seems like mostly women wear this. What do they gain from this?

>>13413433
Where are you picking up that mostly women wear it?

>>13413438
Just seems they are the most enthusiastic about it in videos and reviews, when I don't think they should be wearing it at all.

>>13413444
I think I would really like smelling it on a woman.

What fragrance goes best with pic related aesthetic? It has to be clean, cold, brutal, severe, hard, etc. I haven't smelt TF Anthracite, but what that name brings to mind is basically what I am looking for.

>>13413451
odeur 71, 53, HdP petroleum. i mean ideally no fragrance. or maybe whatever they wore back then, guerlain?

>>13413451
Knize 10. It's fucking leather and gas and made in Austria.

>>13413605
Against the sweat: just use an unscented antiperspirant.

>>13412857
If I use a signature scent, will those around me at work get used to it too?

HE HAS ARISEN ONCE MORE

I'm partial to the Pinaud Clubman line of aftershaves. I change them out seasonally.

Spring — Classic Vanilla
Summer — Osage Rub
Fall — Clubman Original
Winter — Virgin Island Bay Rum

Also use their talc for my nether regions.

Talc causes cancer homie.

Is Layton an ideal comfy/suited and dressed up frag all in one?

>>13413977
it is important to distinguish between talc that contains asbestos and talc that is asbestos-free. Talc that has asbestos is generally accepted as being able to cause cancer if it is inhaled. This type of talc is not used in modern consumer products.

When you mention a sweat problem it is reasonable to think you mean your pits, not your whole body. Maybe you should have been more clear you fucking shitbag.

Don't bother, it's just to fill their quota and empty self-importance. A good resting bitch face deters most, same with beggars and the homeless.

>>13414027
Everything’s bad for you, now man up and eat your antiperspirant.

Which is the best Oud based fragrance in your opinion?

>>13414077
Is it good? I sprayed it on paper in the store and it smelled for me like dads alcohol aftershave or something.

Maybe i need to test it on skin..

Have a date coming up. Should I wear Pineapple Vintage Intense (or x batch), Pure Malt, or AdG profumo?

Leaning towards PVI

>>13414461
You definitely need to test fragrances on skin. I had a store clerk do the paper strips and it was genuinely different from the smell I get when they are on my skin

>>13414461
It's fresh and good for any occasion. You can never go wrong with VPH.

>>13414077
Tried it, doesn't last that long on my skin.

I like a good whiskey and lemonade.
Would layering Pure Malt and VPH have the same scent as a Honey Jack and lemonade tastes?

>>13414501
AdG Profumo imo. PVI is great but I've always had better responses from women with the AdG

>>13414501
Pure Malt or PVI.

>>13414169 (You)

>When nibbas bitch about the oakmoss reform travesty for aventus.

Bitch they only ever used evernyl, not actual oakmoss. Not in the same league in frags that actually used the stuff and got periodically fucked.

>>13412570
I was considering trying this out, but seeing it here I have to ask - is it a meme perfume? Is it recognizable? Common? Would wearing it make me look like a trend-chaser, a tryhard, or worse, a /fa/ggot?

>>13414748
Its a meme, it might be recognizable to somebody who knows perfume, but unlike designer fragrances, its probably to expensive to be common.

>>13413605
crystal deodorant is a body deodorant, you can use it anywhere. It wont stop sweat though.

>>13412499
Is ADG Profumo a good sleazy frag for a navy floral shirt and a light brown fur jacket?
Or would I be better off with Eau Sauvage Parfum or Drakkar Noir?

Hey guys is cdnim any good?

>>13414748
Its definitely too expensive to be common but its probably common in upper eschelon offices and people who can afford it by googling “best mens cologne”

>>13414686
>good whiskey
>Honey Jack

>>13414801

Aventus has and always will be well marketed pleb trash. The only decent thing about it is that they use Velvione in the musk base. Which is a pretty good one.

>>13414748
You could try searching your local department store website for men's fragrance by popularity/bestsellers

>>13414831
I never said it wasnt. It just isn’t common. Its common among people who think they are higher class.

>>13414839
I already own a bottle of Acqua di Gio, thanks.

>>13414839
Oh, right, I see what you mean. Sorry for the autism. No, I'm pretty sure we only have one store in the whole country that sells it, and it's not even in the top 50 there. I guess I might give it a try then.

>>13414792
what you really need is body kouros

>>13414799
no

>>13414686
No I'm pretty sure that layering combo wouldn't smell like diabetic hobo piss, you're probably going to need a combo of Dior Bois d'Argent, Dior Homme Cologne and Aqualina Pink sugar.

*Knize Ten

>>13415167
71 is a more complex 53
53 smells like synthetic plastic
Knize 10 is gasoline and leather

>>13415167
reviews on basenotes and fragrantica should more than suffice for your curiosity. i recommended 71, 53 and petroleum and 71 is my favorite of those three, but i would actually opt for knize ten out of the lot if i were you. knize 10's sensibility is so traditional it actually circles back and smells modern next to what avant garde perfumers have been putting out. a classic that remains very compelling.

>>13413294

>>13415813
CDNMI is garbage. I have it and i promise you no college aged girl is going to like smelling a burning lemon forest.

If you want college age panty droppers MAX age 25 just check your local Sephora or Ulta. They specifically sell mass appealing panty droppers for young women. And all are going to be less than 100 bucks.

One i can recommend right now that i just bought is 1 Million Lucky. Thots when I work love it

tried creed aventus.
underwhelming. Better then average smell, low performance.

>>13415825
Not him but curious. Is Acqua di Gio Profumo an adequate panty dropper for college thots? I also have a bottle of Dior Sauvage and the original 1 Million, but I'm guessing those are meme perfumes at this point.

>Went to only Amouage store in the country and it doesn't have Reflection bottle in stock.
Really died for a second.

Lads I went to Sephora yesterday.
Tried Sauvage, LNDLH, One Million, Eros, Dylan Blue, Armani Code, Kouros, Pure Malt, Individuelle, CK One, TF TV. I didn't liked them much, although totally enjoyed sniffing good perfume.
However, I tried one Oud and spice based fragrance which was some EDP and not an international one also can't recall the name because it was weird. I totally loved it.
I'm going for it rather than these plebs.

Can someone suggest me their favourite oud based frag?

>>13415870
>Forgot the pic.
I brought these with me to smell the dry down.

Anyone have any experience with Kilian fragrances?

I sampled a few today and really liked Sacred Woods, but can't remember the others. Sacred Woods smells like a magical Asian forest town.

>>13415886
I dont care much for killian. you either hate it or love it. same with amouage.

Creed Green irish tweed i find myself reaching for more. might be my new sig

>>13415870
creed spice and wood
or creed royal oud.

Amouage has oud frags as well.
these are high quality scents tho.

buy a decant before you buy a full bottle

>>13415900
i dont get any oud in royal oud, despite its name. it's a great frag but not a reference for oud

Any one have expirience with this? I tryed it and kinda liked it. What is you thoughts?

Do I buy into the Sauvage meme or not? I smell it on hotel guests quite a bit but where I live I've never smelled it at all no matter where I go.

>>13415886
It's one of the top-3 favorite brands for me.
An outstanding quality of ingredients, good performance, nice scent compositions.

>>13415870
Wow, you are so different and unique. Good on you, those pleasant scents are just for plebeians anyway.

Have you smelled this one yet, young lad? It had a rather peculiar petroleum accoird. Quite unique and niche, I Must Say, Lad

>>13415870
You should not test as many frags in one day.
And it's retarded to check dry down on the blotter, test frags on your skin, one on each of your wrists.

Reading all the reviews about Bleu de Chanel only holding up for 4-6 hours top I am on a fence. How is it from your experience?

>>13415886
my fav are incense oud and straight to heaven

Okay, so everyone keeps saying "Aventus is trash" and "there are better cheaper colognes" and "it's a meme", but I haven't seen any recommendations yet. What should I try if I like Aventus but want to be a special snowflake?

Oh I see.. thanks for the tip, I'd keep in mind from the next time.
Any suggestions tho?

>>13416329

>>13416378

Clearly you are forgetting the juice

>>13416329
I have aventus. it smells great the drydown is the best part. but it doesn't last long on my skin. projects like a monster tho.
not to mention creed for whatever fucking reason likes to vary batches. with creed aventus. they can vary 30% its fucking ridiculous.

My fave is Green irish tweed it agrees with my chemistry more then aventus. and the ingredients only vary 5% so its more or less the same.

before you buy any of the expensive frags but a dexant first

>>13415886
I find most Kilian frags to be very overpriced for what they are and mostly not worth bothering with, but Back to Black is amazing. Best tobacco/honey scent on the planet.

>>13416329
Despite being a meme in this isolated frag community, it's not really well known outside.
Fragrances are used by approximately 10% of the men, and most of those frags are sauvage, ysl and other goods you can take in your local sephora.

Aventus is a solid perfume with an exotic mix of notes not familiar to the public. Take it if you are fond of this.

There are plenty of different takes on Aventus, my favorite ones are Orion by Tiziana Tirenzi for winter and Cedrat Boise by Mancera for summer.
You may check Heroique, Royal Vintage as well.
Each of them is not a "clone", more like "inspired by" frags.

>>13416359
At least two people in this thread and many more across previous threads and other forums. I'm asking for perfumes similar to it, or at least perfumes that someone who likes Aventus might also enjoy, not cheap clones.

>>13416369
>Any suggestions tho?

In my opinion, you should start with different groups of frags and find few well received by the general public on fragrantica and basenotes.
The picture below OP is a nice way to start, you will train your nose and become familiar with isolated notes and their mixes with each other (i.e. raspberry+leather, cardamon+cedar etc).
Then you might understand what you like and what you don't and why (for me, I can't stand fucking honey in frags, even in extremely well-done ones).
And also I would not recommend you to buy full bottles asap, give it some time, you will most likely regret your first purchases.

tl;dr train your nose.

>Cedrat Boise by Mancera
Thanks, I was trying to find this one. Someone at the local Notino had me try it out and I forgot what it was called. It's pretty good.

>>13416424
Yes you're right. I'd try whatever you've just said. Thanks.
Honestly, I feel really good having valuable inputs from anons like you on this Armenian Cow herding forum.

I'm about to pull the trigger on cdnim. What am I in for?

>>13416495
Pajeet status and self delusion.

>>13416500
Shut the fuck up you faggot cunt.
Back to your containment board /pol/..

>>13416495
It's a little harsh in the beginning but good when settles down after 10-15 minutes. If you have Made in UAE or older than 2017 batches then it'll be very good.

>>13416508

>>13416508
This b8 will get responses, but you can do better. /pol/ boogeyman b8s are pretty 2017. We kind of ran that cash cow into the ground.

I can wholeheartedly recommend the "onions" line of b8. It's a bit edgy right now, but if you're subtle about it, you can get a LOT more (You)'s

Anyone have any experience with >>13414052
Altamir Ted Lapidus fragrances?

4 sprays of pic related, what are you wearing?

>>13416651
12 sprays of high IQ.

>>13416651
2 sprays of La Yuqawam. It's too warm for it, but I'm home for the day so who gives a fuck, its comfy

>>13416651
I also tried my samples of Xerjoff Ivory Route and Nassomatto Pardon on each wirist after I got home.

What's similar to this?

>>13416651
oud 27 from a sample vial. i am in awe of this civet, lads

>>13416651
Seven of this. Should i go for.. eight sprays?

>>13416508
t. curry man

>>13416906
I always do even sprays.

>>13416923
I always use sacred numbers

Emerald Isle and Verbena Fields are both phenomenal. Verbena Fields, if it isnt obvious enough from the name, focuses a bit more on the verbena, but it's not quite as good as Emerald Isle.

>>13416651
2 of that same one, since I work at a grocery store. Really nice scent

>>13416329
Aventus left be baffled. I got a sample and I absolutely loved the first 30 mins of it. Smelled like fresh pineapple. But after that, I'm not shitting, it transformed and smelled like an old pair of jeans that were worn for 2 weeks straight by a fat truck driver who constantly farted in them. It's horrible to me.

>>13416651
2-3 sprays of this Certified, Grade-A Thot Killer.

/frag/: fuck you Dior

Dior: no fuck you

>>13416651
Two sprays of Dior Homme Parfum.

>>13417435
It's intriguing but I already have Invictus Aqua 2016, which is ultimate grey joggers tier fuccboi fragrance

>>13417694
i have it too. This is way more potent for thots.

for me its
>1 Million Lucky
>A&F First Instinct
>Invictus Aqua

>>13416651
trying out millisime imperial for the first time. I was expecting much worse longevity and I find it pretty similar to erolfa in the drydown

>>13412719
Do it faggot. Fahrenheit is dope. Also look into Mercedes-Benz Intense and Ferrari Uomo.

>>13417622
I tried it and all I could smell for a while was this super strong pepper note. It burned my nose. Truly a frag for masochists.

Thoughts on this for a middle aged woman?

>>13417912
Perfect since she's probably lazy too

>>13417942
You've smelt it? Give me a little more to go on, it's a gift.

>>13417956
He's obviously joking you fuckin asshat

MM Jazzclub, TV or TL? Which is the most versatile scent out of those three? Should I just cop samples of all three and buy a bottle of the one I like best?

>>13418468
>Should I just cop samples of all three and buy a bottle of the one I like best?
yea

>>13416307
I can barely smell BdC at all

>>13416229
GOTTA SPRAY BIG TO SMELL BIG

Commodity is an amazing fragrance house that gets no love on this board. Is it just because it’s new? All their materials are top-quality and you can find if at Sephora.

>>13417912
I dunno. Prove your a middle aged woman

Judt run out of Dior Fahrenheit, pic is what i got left now... do i buy Fahrenheit again or is there a similar alternative y should try?

>>13417912
i think it would be fine for a idle aged woman.

>>13417956
to me it just smells like clean. imagine smelling clean bedsheets outside in the sun. its like that

>>13418468
id say MMM Jazz Club is more versitle.

Best scent for the beach?
I was thinking of OP Pic related since I can try a sample but what about Dior Homme Cologne or even Prada L'homme?

>>13417912
I think most middle aged women wouldn't care for the nuances and how much like skin it smells like. The average fragrance consumer likes putting on perfume because it makes her feel special and "dressed up". Narciso Rodriguez for her does a better job of channeling the same vibe, but it's more complex and like I think would make a woman feel more attractive/sexy.

Also LSM kind of smells like waking up with someone you fucked the night before so maybe don't get it if it's for your mother or boss or something

>>13418804
Prada L'Homme would be bad for a beach. Its way too creamy and powdery. Cant comment on DHC as i never tried it.

Id recommend Abercrombie and Fitch First Instinct.

>>13418808

GOTTA EAT BIG TO DIE AT 46 CMON!

>>13418840
eating big won’t make you die at 46 with proper exercise. Not eating enough or working out and smoking will cause you to die at 30 though.

>>13418840
steroid use for 40 of the 46 years of your life and enlarged hearts will make you die early

>>13418849
I know, but Ricky Piano died at 46, hence the joke.

Is Infusion d'Iris worth having? How does it compare to other Iris fragrances like maybe Prada L'Homme?

>>13418849
Joke’s on you! I eat like shit, don’t exercise at all, and smoke like a chimney and I’m 35! So much for your theory, according to you, I’d have to be a ghost!

...I’m not a ghost, am I?

>>13419335
spooper pls

Best frag for a ghost lads? Something faint and laundry-like or some overpowering stench?

Thoughts on a sweet smelling summer fragrance? Perhaps casual. Limit is about 100 dollars I guess, but it can be cheap as well. Thanks.

I'm drunk and feel like blowing some money, what do I blind buy?

>>13420039
E R O S or CDNIM

>>13420052
Already have both

>>13420039

take your pick:

designer:
dior sauvage
bleu de chanel edp

niche:
xerjoff naxos
amouage reflection man

>>13420058
Tried Sauvage and dont like it. On BdC, should I go edp or parfum? The parfum seems better received in general and I've already been considering it

>>13420062
i originally had BdC EDT gave it to my pops, tried the EDP in store and liked it and bought teh parfum version and felt a disappointed as it didnt smell like edp. I think im anosmic to BdC or something. get the parfum if you can swing the price vs edp.

>>13420054
You don't need anymore fragrances then brother

>>13420068
How did the EDT compare to the EDP? The difference in scent I mean, I've heard the EDT is a lot fresher or lighter, and I tend to like that more than deeper, heavier scents

>>13420069
But if I only needed two scents, why would I let one be overpriced lemon pledge?

>>13420073
>why would I let one be overpriced lemon pledge?
So just replace it with some Aqua Amara/Artisan Pure/Dior Homme Cologne

>>13420077
Ooh Dior homme actually sounds legitimately good

>>13420039
Prada L'Homme is a nice change up.

>>13420093
Maybe if you're a trap or twink

Where's the best place to buy cologne? Everywhere seems so expensive.

>>13420101
Fragrancenet, Perfume( dot )com, Fragrancebuy, Maxaroma.

>>13420101
Fahrenheit and Eros are at Walmart for pretty cheap.

>>13420101
fragrancenet is the only place that has a significant discount off retail. yes, they are legit, this gets asked every thread

>>13420111
You haven't looked around very hard then

WRITING IN CAPS ON 4CHAN.

I'm not good with girls, I'm 5'6 and just average.. I saved money for 9 months to go for a blind buy of Aventus. My last frag was 8$ and before that even less, I never thought of putting a nice frag.
However, the Creed Aventus bottle is the best thing I've ever bought, I put it in the morning and wow..girls never ever talked me but yesterday one girl asked me for my frag. At the subway I was looked upon twice by a girl.
Honestly, guys if you want to buy anything, just save for months or maybe a year and buy an Aventus. Just buy the real masterpiece. It affects the personality, made me a a bit more confident because I'm wearing the right thing and not some knock off or clone. It's really worth every dollar!
Having said that I thank you all from /frag/ and lot's of YTbers.

>Sorry for my bad English I'm not from an English speaking nation.

They were giving backpacks with the Eros in my area.
I smelled your meme fragrance for the first time and didn’t understand the memery nor the hate.

Suggest long lasting with good sillage and projection frag for a Pajeet(currynigger).

Suggest another good one with wood as note.

>>13420938
1 Million

>>13420955
Any other?

>>13420968
cdnim is the pajeet fragrance.

>>13416307
Last a good 8 hours if not more on me. The only problem I noticed is after about 4 hours I start smelling this really synthetic note that gets me nauseous.

>>13417838
How are those two? May be my next creed cop

Chypre or Fougere?

>>13421304
Chypre for sure

>>13421304

GOURMAND OR GTFO FAGGOT

>>13421328
OUT OF MY WAY GOURMAND FUCKING SHIT, ORIENTAL MASTER RACE COMING THROUGH.

>>13421304
I realized pretty much all my frags are gourmand, Oriental, and floral. I'd like to branch out, what is a good affordable representative of the fougere group?

>>13421304
If I can pick anything, Oriental.

However, I don't think I have a real preference on Fougere or Chypre since my collection only has a few of those. (Green Irish Tweed, Guerlain vetiver extreme, and Pineapple Vintage Intense looking at my collection)

>>13421335
ironic

>>13421358
Is GIT considered a fougere? I guess I never considered its family

>>13421922
I have always considered it a more mainstream take on a fourge, but i believe most of the usual suspects are there in the breakdown

where to buy? also can you make your own aventus with just pineapple and birch?

>>13413597
willing to sell any?

>>13416651
i am actually wearing the same. I just sprayed it on as i was walking through macy's earlier. I like it, but its a little too sweet for me especially during summer.

>>13417876
>>13417622
all i smell is the pepper but my mind keeps thinking that its chilli pepper so i just constantly have that weird feeling like i just ate something hot and am waiting for the burn in my mouth but it never comes. I do not like it

>>13420120
>once in middleschool mixed cool water and Fahrenheit together
LEGENDARY

>>13422242
Seriously how did it take so long for that to get pointed out

FYI birch tar has been fiddled with for ages, people haven't been allowed to use the crude oil for a couple decades, Creed either changed their supplier of rectified oil, or bean counted for the umpteenth time.
