What's a good frag for an SLP inspired fit? Like a patterned black button down, a black and gold scarf, black peacoat, chinos and jodhpurs?

>>13445402
Silver Mountain Water or Tom Ford Noire Extreme

>>13445428
>Silver Mountain Water
nah, that seems more casual/easygoing/non-tryhard compared to what he's describing

>>13445375
Bumping for lwgit op

This shit is nice, what are you wearing?

>>13445375
What's a good fragrance if you want to get your dick sucked by a 10/10 female latina model?

>>13445504
The scent of money.

>>13445494

>>13445494
I love Ultime. It's like Voyage D' Hermes if it had a lot better longevity imo. I'm surprised they managed to make something that can actually last for more than an hour. Was a pretty easy purchase for me after I smelled it at a sephora.

>>13445433
every Creed is a touch fussy, even Virgin Island Water

>>13445494
Lush Breath of God

>>13445494

I will baptize my kids in Virgin Island Water, and I'm Jewish

>>13445585
Get off my board filthy jew REEEEEEEEE

>>13445428
Antaeus would be good

>>13445505
What should I buy with that money?

>>13445375
Any of use guys own this scent? I want to pick up a nice old school scent and this one fits the bills it seems. The rose and leather note seems interesting. People say it is a gothic scent. Would appreciate feedback.

Someone on /biz/ recommended Barrister and Mann's Fougere Gothique, so I picked it up. It's one of the most interesting and unique scents I've ever worn. I'd definitely recommend it for someone looking for something a little less mainstream.

Woody and earthy. Has very good projection and longevity.

>>13445585
EROLFA is their superior beach/it's hot as fuck outside frag

honestly love this shit
looking for something new
anyone have any recommendation based on this?

>>13445668
No thanks, this stuff is only shilled by neckbeard autists in wetshaving circles. I'd rather spend a few more bucks and not purchase from an amateur perfumer.

My country has a reasonably big market for "inspired" fragrances, basically companies that explicitly tell their customers that they're copying other companies. Are these kind of counterfeits any good?

Also, I'm glad we have a separate Eros shitposting thread and a serious thread going on at the same time.

I see what you're doing based OP, I like it.

>>13445494
Exactly what you just posted. I don’t get how it’s so underrated. /frag/ is the only place where it gets the recognition it deserves and even then it’s very small.

>>13445705
Are you poo or any other type of shitskin?

>>13445706
Yea. I really hate the other OP.

>>13445704
I'm going to have to disagree with you. I switched from Aventus and YSL's La Nuit to the Barrister and got significantly more compliments. And I enjoyed switching it up.

>>13445706
Fuck that other guy for trying to ruin the only good thing on /fa/

>>13445702
Pure havane

>>13445706
What are your thoughts on aromatic fougeres? You guy's hate the other thread but anytime someone comes here with something different you guys ignore it and circle jerk with the same shit. Over and over. Talk about something new for a change

Going to purchase a a summer pusy getting fragrance.

This a list of fragrances im going to try including memes frags:

Terre d'Hermes
Bleu de Chanel
Sauvage
AHS

What should I add to this list? Might go fahrenheit / cool water combo desu

>>13445756
Every thread

>>13445548
That's a good one for hotter weather.

>>13445751
what is an aromatic fougere

>>13445761
man asssss

>>13445704
None of what you said actually implies that it's a bad scent...you just described purism

>>13445751
Fougère is a really broad category, especially aromatic fougère. Everything from Sauvage and Polo Blue EdP to Azzaro pH can be considered fougère, so the term is sort of meaningless to me. The best modern example of I've found of a ferny, coumarin heavy 80's style fougère is Boss Cashmere Patchouli. When I first sniffed it was one of my "aha" moments in this hobby, as it was the type of fragrance I had not smelled since early childhood. Nothing hits the nostalgia button for me quite like it.

>>13445751
L'Artisan Fou d'Absinthe
Amouage Memoir Man
Frederic Malle Geranium Pour Monsieur

all GOAT tier imo

>>13445504
>>13445594
A green card

>>13445862
Isn't it usually earthy, barber-shoppy greens

Pic related is the mainstream men's fragrance launch of the year. I hated original Million, but its flankers have all been excellent. If you wanna wait until it hits the discounters that would probably be wise. But for me personally, I couldn't wait after trying it in store and bought a 200ml.

I need a little help. I daily wear pineapple vintage intense but I have a birthday coming up and want to treat myself to a new cologne. My favorite colognes are avignon and invasion barbare. I'm choosing between dylan blue and allure homme sport, which should I get?

Anybody else wear this? I love it.

>>13445375
I meant to respond to someone in another thread about Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab but didn’t. They are fairly offputting by how edgy they are and it has too many scents to pick from but they have that hidden gem factor. I recommend Black Cat, Titus Adronicus, Anything based on Shakespeare really, and some of the American Gods stuff is great(Becoming Thunder I think its called, Mr Wednesday, and Lowkey Lyesmith).They also have something called Blood Kiss which is a really weird one.

>>13446169
AHS any day I own both and am getting rid of Dylan blue soon since it smells very juvenile to me

>>13445494
Tom Ford Grey Vetiver and Molecule 01 layered.

>>13446169
Try AHS Eau Extrême. To me it's just a little more interesting than original Allure Homme Sport. Still wearable during hot summer weather but not as much of a basic powdered lemon.

>>13446142
Lucky is very nice. Bought it because I genuinely liked it. I get so many compliments. Also
>200ml
wat

>>13445711
I'm a white male.

>>13446238
They actually do have some decent scents. Also, you can really just buy samples, they’re 1/5 of a full bottle anyway.

>>13444660
kek, why would he do that? is that a meme on his channel?

>>13444632
Damn. Only ever saw one of her videos, she was with an old dude (apparently another youtuber), she barely said anything about the perfume, the dude did pretty much all the talking. In that regard this guy >>13443056 does a really good job conveying how the fragrance smells and how it feels to someone who hasn't smelled it.

>>13446142
was surprised to see jeremy give it a bad review becuase i love it, but it is a bit sweet

what are your favorite scents for the coming winter?

>>13443010
>>13443036

what did he buy?

>>13446578
M8, summer just started...

That said, Amouage Jubilation, Kilian Back to Black, Roja Enigma.

>>13446587
dont be one of those idiots that only buys stuff for the season when the season starts.
you'll never get good deals that way

>>13446578
DHI, Spicebomb, Encre Noir, TF Noir Extreme. Gonna try to get into more niche frags this year. How is HdP 1899?

>>13446581
Aqua di Parma?

>>13446470
Macy's sells Lucky in 200ml size. Seems to be an exclusive for now, at least in the US.

>>13446575
I didn't see the Jeremy review. I can understand how it's too sweet for some people, but I wear lots of unisex stuff anyway so sweetness doesn't faze me. I can also see how Lucky has a lot of the 2017-2018 trendy notes (cashmeran, coffee, fruits, amberwood) going on at once. I just enjoy the overall result more than most other recent examples of the genre. For me it recalls Bond no. 9 I Love New York for Marriage Equality (2012), which now appears to have been ahead of its time.

I found some old checklist of frags in my drawer. Can I post here and ask for general opinions or is that frowned upon to basically poll opinions?

>>13446653
Go for it

>>13446262
Thanks based rich poster
>>13446303
hmm now I'm tempted to get samples instead of blind buy. Thanks for the input man either way would you still consider AHS a good choice?

>>13446669
My rankings of the Allure Homme Sport lineup (I have bottles of each):
AHS EE
AHS Cologne
AHS

I still enjoy the original AHS and prefer it to its nearest competitor, Versace pour Homme, due to longevity and complexity. VpH also gives me a headache if I spray too much, which isn't an issue with the Chanel. Given your current rotation, either AHS or AHS EE will offer contrast and variety.

How big is the difference between Tuscan Leather and La Yuqawam to most people? I can tell the difference but in a weird way; TL reminds me very distinctly of small shops at the Renaissance Festival, while La Yuqawam just doesn't have that same memory tied to it. I just can't point to an actual difference in notes aside from a bit more raspberry in LY

>>13446669
Things smell different on different people you should at least try it on even if you get good advice

>>13446662
Here's the dump:

Rasasi La Yuqawamm pour Homme
Aramis Havana pour Homme
Sweet Tobacco 18.21
Tabac Rouge by Phaedon
Montblanc Individuel EDT
Paco Rabanne Invictus Aqua EDT
Amouage Reflection Man's EDP
Chanel Allure Homme Sport EDT or Eau Extreme (EDP)

I haven't smelled any of these. The ones I'm most interested in though are:
>La Yuqawamm
>Individuel
>Invictus Aqua
>reflection man
>1920 oltremare
>Icon
>Feve Delicieuse
>Herod
>Etat Libre d'Orange for men

Some are more obscure than others although I think most of these are recognizable at least. If anyone has tried any of the greentexted ones (or any of the other ones if you think I'm missing a good one), what did you think of it?

Can anyone from Brazil tell what they think about Sapientiae?

Should i be worried about my room staying pretty warm in the summer? I can't really run my AC all day

>>13446806
>Etat Libre d'Orange
that's a brand, not a frag but they are very good if you can make it past their edgy/cringey style and marketing

>>13445375
I took a chance and blind bought PDM Layton as well as Exclusif based on pretty much universal praise from you guys:

>>/fa/?task=search&ghost=&search_text=layton

I don't like everything you guys shill, but these are winners. As for how Exclusif compares to the original Layton, it's like the same chord played on a different instrument, an octave lower. The emphasis on woods and civet provides greater contrast for the sweet notes, which are dialed down from Eros to AHSEE levels. Exclusif doesn't have the same 12-hour beast longevity of Layton, but it has real presence. I could easily smell myself walking outdoors on a windy day.

Good recommendation, /frag/.

What's a frag you love but keep putting off buying /fg/?

Every time I smell pic related at the store, I always think "god damn this smells so nice," yet whenever I come around to purchasing a new fragrance I always choose something else over it, telling myself I'll pick it up later.

>>13446645
huh thats a very interesting take on it, and it makes a lot of sense. I also really liked the hazelnut note in Lucky

>>13446833
i think its more of a problem with humidity and sunlight.

>>13446969
terre d' hermes
I have too many frags but I love it . Im considering buying it anyway, but I have to decide soon because I'm going on a trip soon

>>13446969
byredo bal d'afrique
never smelled a floral quite like it but i have so many other priorities

>>13446969

>>13446713
Thanks a lot my man
>>13446765
You're totally right I'm just retarded

>>13446969
Mefisto because I already own smw but it doesn't project for more than 10min and becomes a skin scent for a few hours. Actually mefisto isn't as god tier as people describe it either so I'm still not sure if I want it. I'm just waiting until I find a really good deal.

is it me or does this stuff last like an hour or two only? nice smell though

>>13447233
i thought that when i first got it, but I don't know if its changed since I got it or my nose just smells it more clearly now. I wore it 2 days ago and could still smell it the day after, as it had dried down to tonka bean. I really like it now

>>13445705
>Are these kind of counterfeits any good?
They can be. Milton-Lloyd are good.

Just drank a bottle of Eros lads

>>13447326
should I unironically buy a small amount of Eros?

I have uncontrollable flatulence at work that is embarrassing for me.
What scent can cover this up?

>>13447304
Anything in particular from them?

>>13447408
Yes, unironically, Eros is a very good scent. Its very cheap and an easy daily reach for me. Its the scent I wear when I want to project a positive vibe or when I go out with friends for drinks, its a good bar scent because girls will be all over you.

Let's go bois and settle this now in /fa/ way.

https://strawpoll.com/xfb19bb9

>>13446615
Do you layer Encre Noire with anything or just wear it raw?

Recently received Silver Mountain Water as a gift, and of all the Creeds I've had in the past, this one is the least I like. I'm getting a metallic, inky vibe and it leans more towards feminine side. I expected something ''fresher'' and more pleasant. Not my type of fragrance.
With that said, does anyone have some experiences with Erolfa and Virgin Island Water?

>>13446713
>VpH also gives me a headache
Thank you! I agree wholeheartedly. A friend of mine uses VpH as his sig and every time he gets into a closed container with me (i.e. a car) I feel like I'm gonna pass out. It's not a bad smell but it makes me dizzy so I can never wear it. Glad to know there's an alternative.

>>13447408
Why are people thinking it's a bad, meme frag?
I feel like the only reason it's a meme at this point is because someone said it's a meme and now everyone thinks it's a meme. It's just a good, popular fragrance.

Opinion on Jose Eisenberg J'ose?

I'm thinking of getting one for the first time. I've never wore any of this stuff. Any advice for first time?

Is there a known good silver mountain water clone?

>>13447738
buy it from Fragrancenet, you can get it for like 120.

>>13447738
Al wisam day. It's a lot stronger, but a bit sweeter, linear and smells >synthetic up close.

>>13446615
1899 is great, a much smoother, more refined spicebomb. While the sweet cinnamon in SB reminds me of that spicy heart-shaped bubblegum you get around valentine's day, 1899 reminds a little bit of cola, in a very good way without being too sweet or verging on gourmand.

>>13447200
About 20 unique ones plus a handful of backup bottles.

Went to Tom Ford's only official store in India and I was completely blown the fuck out by Tobacco Vanille.
However, they didn't had any Tuscan Leather so I missed on that part.

>>13447846
Pic related is Grey Vetiver on that paper. Still smells great after 6 hours.

>>13447233
I like it. It used to be my signature scent. I say used to because I changed it with L’Homme Ultime. Might scoop another L’Homme 100ml bottle. I love it because I can wear it anytime and it’s a soft/moderate sillage. You go to remember not all frags are going to be 10 hour projection and can be smelled by a 10 mile radius. Its important to have a scent like this.

>>13447846

>>13447408
It's good if you want attention. Guy I know wears it, it projects like crazy and last for hours. Smells like sweet minty vanilla

>>13447790
I really missed the bus on midnight in Paris and I am kicking myself.

wtf I love Eros now

>>13448111
8 sprays c'mon.

>>13448053
Honestly, it’s nothing too special. I grabbed a bottle in Amsterdam last year pretty much just because the bottle is cool. I’ve only worn it a few tines. Definitely overhyped as a scent. You’re not missing too much.

Is the ideal solution to Wonderwood's longevity to simply spray more and bring a travel atomiser with me?

>>13448053
>>13448229
Other anon here. I've read reviews that say exactly the same. I just like the bottle design.

>>13447433
go to a doctor

Slightly intoxicated and craving legit Tuscan Leather instead of La Yuqawam; Should I order it before I'm too sober to decide against it?

>>13448716
Yes. Order 10 bottles just to make sure you never run out when you’re craving it again.

>>13448749
At least I'm not so drunk I'm actually dropping a couple thousand on it, but totally ordering one 50ml bottle at least

How is One Million Lucky? I’ve heard good things, but I mostly wear niche scents. Only designer scents I own are Eros, Spicebomb, and a couple of the Mugler flankers. Will it appeal to me at all if I thought the original smelled like pure Pajeet?

Tabarome is better than Aventus unless you're a fragrance newfag.

>>13448994
It's somehow even worse than the original. If you've gotten into niche there is literally no reason to waste your money on mall club banger scents. You won't get laid and you'll smell like you have a feminine penis.

>>13447738
Bond Hamptons

>>13447723
How about you read any of the posts in this thread, the links, the other forums, anything and then come back with even the simplest request or opinion like " I want to smell like trees" rather than asking to be spoon-fed.


Wait, scratch that, spoon feeding requires some effort on the recipients part like opening their mouth and swallowing which is more than you're doing here you retarded nigger.

Hey guys poor college student here what's the best calone for cheap? Need a panty dropper fast.

>>13449001
I don’t give a fuck about getting laid, never been a problem anyway. I just like smelling nice and having interesting fragrances to wear.

Guess I’ll skip it, then.

>>13449087
>>13446142
here

If you can enjoy Eros you can definitely appreciate Lucky. Test it casually in the mall if you're unsure. That's how I was sold.

>>13448053
I don't actually wear it, I just picked it up cause it was cheap, the bottle's cool, and I like the smell though I don't think it suits me.

WE WON

never worn frags before, looking to get one for daily use and one for going out/dates/smelling good 2 art hos. i got a sample of wonderwood that i like, is that too cool weather for socal?

Convince me not to..

>>13449704
The only reason not to would be the chance of getting a better price on sale in the near future

>>13449704
It's fucking disgusting for one.

Guys, is a 1ml sample enough to get a good idea of a fragrance? As a newbie I'm torn between whether or not to get say 9-10 1ml samples of things I like the sound of, or 4-5 2ml samples of things I'm fairly sure I'd like. Opinions?

>>13449713
This is the best price I'm getting.

>>13449717
2ml is not going to be enough if you like it. May as well get more 1ml samples and get full bottles of what you like.

>>13449717
1 ml is good sample but I'd suggest to go for 3-5ml one.
Try the perfume 3-5 times before making a conclusion.

>>13449341
you wish you were he, beta. Or, had even a hint of his masculinity.

>>13449717
As you can see there are a lot of different frames of reference.

Most of the time, I've never had trouble figuring out if I like something on 1 ml. That's usually 2 wearings + a half for me since I usually apply a third to a half of a decant. For most of my fragrances, this has always been enough, and it lets me order like 14 samples. If there's ever something I'm not sure if I like, I'll order more samples with my next paycheck. But most of my fragrances I've been able to determine I like after 2 wearings, and i don't really have anything I regret buying in my collection except things that I'm still not comfortable wearing except at date type events (and I don't go out much so).

I'd say bigger samples become important in niche perfumery if you're new, because that's a lot more money, but that's just me.

>>13445494
went to the store today to have a check on this and fuck it's good. left the store with a bottle.
Thanks for the heads up

>>13449717
The 1ml usually dont have a sprayer which I dont like. The 2ml are fine, when I test samples I usually do 1 spray on each side of my wrist on the same hand. I find it a really good way to gauge the projection of a fragrance. I can get at least 5+ wearings like that.

>>13449739
The 1ml samples I got from Perfumista all were in spray bottles.

I suffer from sweating profusely. Most of the deodorants do not help. Do any of you suffer same? What do you use?

>>13449763
Try unscented roll ons.

>>13449729
I wish I was beta

t. omega

i want to buy 100 ml dia man from notino for around 120 brexits but i dont really trust them when it comes to niche frags and im too lazy to return it if it doesnt smell like the sample i currently have. fuck

>>13449858
then save a buy from amouage directly

Is VPH worth having or there are better summer cheapies?

>>13449720
>>13449730
Thanks for the answers guys, think I'm gonna go half measure and pick two or three 2mls I'm almost sure I'll like and 1ml of a couple more.

>>13445375
is basenotes good enough information to *start* to make a homemeade knock off?

>>13450168
i dont even understand why youd need basenotes. just get carrier oil (fractionated coconut), look at the note list of what you want to copy, buy EOs of the notes, and play around with the proportions.

i also dont know why youd spend so much time and money making your own knockoff when there are cheap knockoffs of everything these days

>>13450188
because i am not as interested in wearing perfume as i am interested in making perfume.

also basenotes lists more notes than on its dedicated website, for example farenheit on dior.com lists leather as its base note with a violet heart and citrus top but on basenotes its Top Notes: Hawthorn, Honeysuckle Heart Notes: Sandalwood Base notes: Lenstiscus, Styrax (Benzoin) so who do i trust? the designer or a third party thats just trying to offer information?

>>13450205
what you could probably do is check fragrantica as well, then compare what the sites say, and then try yourself.

>>13449000
Ill give you a (you) because you spent the time to make this.

>>13449718
Then start smelling BIG my man

What's the best frag for a date with an MtF lady?

>>13450426
Dylan Blue.

Because you’re on a date with a man.

>>13450504
Oh yeah, no, it's actually a trans woman.

>>13450065
Anyone?

>>13450065
It only lasts 4-5 hours for me and is soft scent and sillage wise. I bought a decant and use it for work since I do split shifts, couldn't consider spending money on a full bottle since I have L'eau D'issey and ADG Profumo that both last much longer

>>13450555
I guess I'll sample those two you mentioned + aqua amara.

At what point do you write of buying new fragrances and just end up wearing azzaro pour homme for the rest of your life?


I got a vintage bottle and it is the epitome of manliness

>>13450523
Hes saying your trans date is still a man

>>13450523
Yeah, a man. That’s what I said.

ok bois, time to settle it down
https://strawpoll.com/gbg8h6y3

I tried Eros at the mall and didn’t like it. The rep mentioned it smelled like lemon and literally that’s the only note I get from it now. Do you guys actually like the way it smells or do you wear it only for girls?? Also planning on blind buying D&G The One Parfum does it last long/project well???

>>13450810
Eros smells nothing like lemon to me. It smells like mint.

I hate this bottle design but the scent itself is so fucking painfully meta. I have to cop it

Help me choose my next three purchases out of this list:

Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche
Dior Sauvage EdP
Guerlain L'homme Ideal EdP
Rasasi Hawas
Tom Ford Noir Extreme

The rest are generic as fuck

>>13448994
Hey I'm wearing a sample of it right now.
Its definitely better than the original 1million, which had some weird note that smelled kinda gross/bitter.
I think the bottle does a good job at representing the feel of the smell, which is shiny, glamorous, and fun. It's very sweet, with hazelnut that makes it smell like candy, and it really does smell like teenage girl in a way. But it does that in the best way, in that its very fun and lively. That being said, it feels very immature when compared to other scents like Aventus or Bleu de Chanel, which are more complex and thoughtful. Lucky is not a very complex scent, but it is really good.
It would be a good scent for having fun and being out and about, and also for someone that doesnt want to take things too seriously and be snotty about fragrances. It lightens the mood a lot, but like the other guy mentioned, it does smell more like a mall than niche scents do. A glamourous shiny mall with lots of cool things to buy.

>>13451028
I’ll see if I can give it a try next time I’m in the vicinity of a Sephora or wherever. Might be something to wear as a sleep scent.

>>13449212
his acceptance speech was pushups?? REVolutionaRY

>>13449704
dont do it, buy a 1 liter flagon instead

>>13450923
Don't buy sauvage or ahs if you're worried about smelling like every other dude and his brother.

>>13450994

>>13450919
i having the same reaction right now fuck

>>13449704
I've been rocking eros before it became a meme. It is a legit fragrance. Do it

>>13451051
Yeah you're right, there aren't many lemon+vanilla frags!

>>13450919
>the scent itself is so fucking painfully meta
pls elaborate

>>13451096
Can't rlly describe it that well, you have to just go and try it. Its a whirlwind of fruity notes, jasmine, and the most brutal ambroxan I've ever smelled in a frag. Pretty much Invictus but better.

>>13451107
>brutal ambroxan
That's the cashmeran, which is key to Lucky's longevity. Also the backbone of L'Eau Majeure d'Issey and Ferragamo Uomo Casual Life, both recent.

What's the worst cologne you bought

>>13451222
Not that one.

A while back I bought really cheap Chinese clones of GIT and sauvage. Easily the most vile things.

>>13451222

full bottle of sauvage

Should I do it /fa/? Would bring me to my 25th bottle, feel like I'm starting to accumulate too much though.

>>13451294
Do it if you're feeling like you need these.
25 bottles are too much IMO, unless you're a very big fragrance enthusiast.
Personally I feel 12-15 should be the highest no. one should keep.
If you are financially above average in your country then you can go for them.

>>13451294
yah at some point you gotta decide what kind of collector you want to be. i have three full bottles and the rest 10ml decants or mini if the manufacturer sells them in that size. at three sprays a day it will take around a year to get to the bottom of a full 100ml bottle, i only wear fragrance once or twice a week so its never worth it to me

>>13449704
I bought this before it was a meme.
wtf. not changing it.

>>13451298
>>13451300
That's fair. Honestly, think I'm gonna cop my last few bottles here and call it a day for a while. I've kind of realized that this hobby has been taking over my finances, and it's starting to weigh on me. I just really like variety, which is part of my problem.

Let's talk longevity. I last wore pic related in mid March. While cleaning house this weekend I found a sweatshirt that had fallen into the gap between my bed and the wall. It smelled strongly of Patchouli Leaves, at least 90 days later.

>>13451766
My Ex GF gave me her bra and I kept it safely in my wardrobe.
She used to wear some cheap but amazing Rose odour deodorant and that bra still smells like her.
And It's been 8 months.
The point is longevity should be tested on body as per normal routine.

>>13451294
You can get dhi on cvs for $65

>>13451766
>>13451811
I just put the sweatshirt through the laundry and dryer. It came out absolutely reeking of patchouli and vanilla. I get what you're saying about fabrics retaining scent but PL lasts for days on skin as well.

>>13445375
Wow, you guys are so fuckin cucked by the fragrance jew.
Unironically KYS you pathetic niggers.

>>13451224
Oh shit! We’re you the dude who bought the bottle of Savage a while back? That was a fantastic thread.

post your bottles

>>13451992
Im thinking of getting rid of DHC Lyric OS Himalaya.

>>13451978
Yeah that was me. My god this stuff is fucking disgusting. Imagine if all of the bad things you've heard about sauvage were true. That's what Savage is.

The "Green" one isn't bad to spray my sheets with at least. The worst part of both of them? The longevity is actually good.

>>13451992
my collection. I'm thinking I'm just gonna cop a few more bottles and call it a day, I have just too much stuff to wear now.

>>13452131
What's ultra zest like anyway?

>>13452080
Yeah, I didn’t figure it would be good. They were selling that shit for what, like 15.00 if I recall? I pretty much assumed it would be disgusting Russian bathtub cologne.

Probably still worth ordering for the memes, though.

>>13452145
Starts off with a huge blast of orange and mint, but then dries down to be a mix of the chocolate, patchoulli, and whatever else in the original Mulger DNA. It's not bad, but I would kill for something like this where the opening lasted throughout the drydown. Good for the summer, though. I also actually like the bottle design since it's just this bright orange. It's definitely a unique scent, and it lasts most of the day on my skin.

>>13451728
Go for samples or small bottles. A 30ml or 50ml should be good to cover the variety you're into, even if you're paying more per ml.

>>13451218
The longevity if Lucky is insane, 16 hours easy on my skin

>>13452156
Have you tried Amouage Beach Hut? It has very prominent neroli and mint, gives you that orange/mint hit, and it lasts.

>>13452164
Yeah these days I almost exclusively buy 50 ml unless the 100 ml is around the same price. In the event of that particular order, I got 50 ml of each, and also tacked on two more bottles of cheap ones that I've liked. (Guerlain L'Eau Boisee and Rocky Mountain Wood.) I'm pretty much done now, I think I might just cop AHSEE next and my collection is more than well rounded.

It's real easy to get caught up on this kinda stuff in this hobby, I've realized.

>>13451960
>tfw my girlfriend came home smelling like Sauvage again

>>13452200
I can agree that it's extremely easy to buy more frags than you need. I want to round up my collection when I'm around 10-12 frags but I don't know what else to get.

>>13448994
It’s very nice. It’s not a club scent not sure why the other guy said that. Despite it not being an aquatic, it’s very fresh. This might not mean a lot to you but I work in retail and get so many compliments from my coworkers and customers.

>>13452230
I’ll definitely try it, then. Worst case scenario, I’m going on vacation in a few months, they’ll have it at the duty free for sure and I can try it then.

>tfw get decant with homemade printed label "Hermes Tres Fresh EDT"

:(

Do some of you /fa/ggots still wear Egoiste? I really enjoy it, but it might be a bit too much of an old man's frag for a student.

>>13452362
One of my favourites, if possibly a bit weak. I would say it smells 'mature' rather than 'old'.

>>13449704
I went out to Sephora with my gf and got this for myself. She and I both really like it, get it if it makes you happy anon!

>>13452327
Just sealed it up with a bit of extra tape (shitty bottle) and put my own little sticky with a hand written label instead.

>>13452500
I'm sure it looks very nice now anon.

Anyone ever heard of Pinaud Doux-Soleil?

The only good price/quality fragrance is Versace's Dreamer.

Fite me.

>>13445375
How's Armaf Rixos? Heard it's a knock off of Invictus Aqua.
Should I buy it?

>>13452566
>armaf
no

>>13452062
What's Himalaya like? Also how do you store all of those.

>>13451222
pic related actually

Best scent for a cowboy?

>>13452578
I store them in a closet. The ones I dont use that season I keep in the boxes on top of the closet.

Himalaya is really fresh crisp masculine and soapy. I find it kind of boring so I dont reach for it that much. Opens with grapefruit and bergamot that are quite pleasant and stay on pretty long. I dont like sharp citruses but this is nice and not sharp at all. Reviews say this fragrance has a gunpowder accord, I can recognize something that resembles that fireworks smell but in a clean way in whole drydown as the citruses subdue. I think I'm anosmic to Creed's ambergris and all (synthetic?) musk so I cant comment on that. Maybe that's why I dont find it all too interesting.
Performance/longevity is unexpectedly really good.

Prada Amber Pour Homme Intense

>>13452980
YSL L’Homme

Breaking the rules a little but L’Homme Ultime doesn’t get enough recognition

>>13452970
Different scent all together. Reminds me a lot of voyage d' hermes with a stronger rose note. It's really great.

>>13452980
DG Pour homme

Are either of these sample sets good? I have no idea where to start

tuscan leather

>>13453077
Both have a real nice selection. I'd prefer the first one because it has more variety.

>>13453059
That and all the flankers except la nuit de l'homme, since that gets mentioned a lot.

>>13452980
Just go a bottle of Penhaligon’s The Tragedy of Lord George. Really digging it. It seems to get pretty mixed reviews, but I think it nails the aristocratic British thing. Really does smell like brandy and fancy shaving soap with hints of wood and leather lingering in the background.

Very interesting twist on a barbershop scent. Cool bottle too.

>>13447484
not the anon you asked, but I wear it by itself. it is my absolute favorite scent of all time.

>>13452970
Not op but Herod. Layton is nice for a bit but it gets sickly sweet after a while and the drydown is kinda funny-smelling. I know it's supposed to be great but every time I wear it I end up wishing I hadn't a few hours in. Herod is pretty nice, dry tobacco, not the syrupy sweet tobacco from Pure Havane or CK Shock. I do like Pegasus as well though, and most people seem to hate that so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

>>13453202
I have and love Encre Noir. Is it redundant to buy the flankers?

>>13453260
I tried the sport version and have to say I was very disappointed. people around me liked it, so I tried very hard to get used to it, but to me it simply smelled like pickle juice. really, it just smelled like opening a jar of fresh dill pickles and taking a good whiff. if I focused very hard I could smell some of the original notes, but i just couldn't get into it. I wanted to like it so much because I love the original. with that said, I asked many people if they smelled the same thing and none of them did, and thought it smelled great. I gave it to a friend who liked it and he got some compliments on the first day.

>>13452919
Very nice.

>>13445375
Tried a frag suggested by jeremy today.
Got 2 compliments, thanks jeremy.

>>13453343
There are like 25 autists who post regularly here. You’re not going to make something “common” by posting it here, and it’s completely pointless to post if you won’t say what fragrance you were wearing.

Dumb frogposter.

>>13453343
Eros

So my co-worker always wears like 3-4 sprays of Sauvage and I can smell him from a good 4 feet away despite him being a waiter and I'm starting to enjoy the bergamot and slight spiciness.
Anyone else appreciate a frag after smelling it a fair bit on someone else?

>>13445494

>>13453856
Hard to admit but really enjoy Eros off my co-worker.

>>13453910
Eros isn't bad.
>>13453856
Sauvage also isn't bad.

>>13453912
What's good to you?

>>13453919
Silver Mountain Water, Terre D'Hermes, Eros, Versace Pour Homme, L'eau D Issey just off the top of my head. I also like Civet by Zoologist but its not something I would daily wear.

>>13453927
Good list.

>>13453927
Shit list. 2 Versaces, a cheapie, ass juice, WE WAS PERFUMERS, and orange meme frag.

>>13453834
>implying that isn't 1 of the 25

>>13453544
Yes it will probably be discontinued soon so it would be worth picking up. If you get the one in your pic and not the 2017 edition then you really scored.

Dior Fappening coming soon in /frag/

You will never reach even half bottle.

What would he wear?

My guess is YSL L'Homme or Bleu de Chanel. Definitely nothing like Sauvauge or Eros.

>>13452970
I find it pretty similar, just a little drier and sharper with the rose, and less of that warmth in the base with the tonka that the og had

>>13453260
what does "flankers" mean in this context?

>>13455859
Another scent marketed as part of the same product line or family, typically bearing some similarities to the first and using some variation of the original name.

For Encre Noire, there are also Encre Noire Sport and Encre Noire a l'Extrême.

>>13455352
I remember reading that he wears a Patek Philippe watch, supposedly from his father, my guess it'd be something leathery and classic.

>>13451222
Versace Memer

Smells like an old cat lady.

>>13455920
I see, thank you!

I'm thinking of getting a sample of Lyric Man since a nice citrusy soapy rose would be ideal for palewave and smart casual fits like a button shirt and tie with a sweater.
Is it a good Amouage/babby's first niche?

>>13456270
I really like lyric man when I tried it. Kind of reminds me of what Burberry Brit would smell like if it tried harder. I think it's a really great scent, but it is pretty feminie so if that bothers you then maybe don't bother with it. I think it's a good Amouge though, I prefer reflection personally but lyric is by no means bad.

>>13456270
99% of normies will think it smells like an old lady due to the strong rose note.

Can I wear my Noir Extreme during the summer?
