For whoever was asking about good barbershop frags, the HdP is good but it's not the end all. I really like Guerlain Vetiver and the extreme variant, very barbershoppy. I think my favorite is Rive Gauche though, HdP didn't really vibe with me personally.

>>13468772
It they are a good deal of course both are sought after

>>13468723
I fell for the E R O S meme hard, love the design of the frag in my fragrance cavinet and I keep trying to like it, it just seems gross and anoying to me though, there's these short moments where I think I like it and then it becomes irritating. I confused my E R O S spray with the dylan blue frag, I just realized I actually liked dylan blue instead...fuck, I will try to use the frag far away from my neck from now on.

Step aside plebs, Hermes coming through.

Why do so many Indians wear Hugo Boss?

>>13468780
That was me, thanks! They're so cheap I could blind buy them without reservation. Should I get extreme or regular? How does it compare to gray vetiver?

>>13468797
When is Jean Claude Ellena doing the next Terre d'Hermes, or is he done with frags? By the next, I mean something really good that lasts more than an hour.

Asked last thread but didn't get much help. I'm looking for something that smells like wood. Not like a forest (Encre Noir), not grass/vetiver, and not oud. I'm looking for cedar, redwood, fir, you know... like a lumber yard. Anyone smell fresh cut cedar before? It's amazing.

>>13468852
You've probably seen it a million times but wonderwood or wonderoud is what you're looking for.

Did this once and all my frags were rotten when I landed. It was really weird. Maybe they had a chemical reaction with the plastic? I dunno

>>13468868
this although it's hard for me to smell it must be like mostly iso e. The one time i could smell it it was like sawn wood.

Is Tuscan Leather a good frag to wear if I want to really stand out?

>>13469216
poo truck just arrive

>>13469295
I'll never understand the appeal of that one. Smells like a smoker who sprayed air freshner in their house maybe it's the raspberry.

Guys I have more tha 400 ml of perfumes.
How long will they last?
I'm a uni fag.

>>13469417
My bad I didn't realise it was that difficult to take pictures faggot

>>13469462
How are you this out of the fucking loop and still have the audacity to try and start new threads?

>>13469437
which three do you use most often?

>>13469458
a couple of years at least, unless you bathe yourself in them when you apply

>>13469458
Probably a while. I probably have a few liters of perfume right now and I'm in uni as well. You get something like 10-12 sprays per ml, and usually you only spray 2-3 for casual encounters and 3-4 for closer ones.

I’m thinking of buying a Tom Ford fragrance, but how versatile are the generally? For example, do you think Tobacco Oud would be appropriate for summer daytime, or even summer nighttime? I don’t want to buy an expensive fragrance and have to wait until the right month to wear it.

Currently all I have is Versace Pour Homme. I spray it twice under my neck and by the end of my work day it seems to have completely faded. Is that because I’m not spraying enough or because it’s just a weak fragrance? I don’t want to be that guy that makes the whole place smell, but I don’t want to be the only one enjoying it.

>>13469486

Definitely the first two and probably GIT as third. As the weather gets hotter though I'm using L'Eau Froide and Sport more often though so might change soon. Also L'Eau Issey PH Intense, that was a recent cop but wearing it a lot and it's slowly replacing Atlantiqve.

>>13468880
I'm bringing 2 and it's international

>>13469534

Grey Vetiver is wearable any time of year at any time of day. Oud Minerale is very good for this time of year but while I love it, most people seem to be love/hate towards it or just totally indifferent. Noir de Noir is generally good most of the year round but I wasn't a fan and think it leans too feminine. Plum Japonaise is very nice but also quite feminine and probably not ideal in hot weather. Noir Extreme is good for evening wear, but little beyond that. Cafe Rose is nice but it isn't worth the price for it's longevity. Likewise, Neroli Portofino and the rest in that blue bottle collection just aren't worth touching for the pricetag, regardless of how good they are. Consider any number of Acqua di Parma frags as a better performing, less expensive alternative if you buy from reliable discounters.

other than wonderwood, tam dao and hinoki

My summer scent, picked it up at totokaelo in Seattle.

Made from an Austrian house that is doing a series of scents based on Belle Epoque Vienna. This one is totally great aquatic scent that changes over hours to different aspects of the sea.
Notes of seaweed, laurels, salt, juniper, clary sage, hyacinth, pistachio, and cedar.

>>13469590

anyone copped alien man edt this yet? getting mixed reviews but thinking of buying it.

>>13469437

>>13468852
Rocky Mountain Wood is excellent imo. Smells exactly like what it says

>>13469486
>>13469497
Shidd.
Time to leave this general and Fragrance community then.
I have all I want now. Time to leave for better and more important things in life.
Been wasting too much time and money on these.

>>13469658
Preaching to the choir about this one. I wrapped up my final purchases for a while with some splits. I might buy a few more bottles come the winter season, but I let this hobby get the best of me.

I love the idea of a signature fragrance, but I also love variety too much. I love earthy vetivers, soapy barber shop scents, sharp citruses, etc. I'll probably hop back on the train once i graduate college in a year.

>>13469633

Most of them for work, so my whole collection generally leans formal and more for evening wear. I can get away with away with nearly frag as long as it isn't overkill cause it's a big nightlife/tourist destination and goes down well with some customers. Once got a £100 tip off a regular customer just for wearing Invasion Barbare and telling him what it was and where he could buy it. Although regretted it because he literally wears it 24/7 now and oversprays it even worse than he did with Aventus before I told him about IB.

Of the others usually just wear Al-Rehab Silver and Cool Water around the house and L'Eau Froide when I'm outside a lot at this time of year cause it's got such a great cooling effect, otherwise I wear Ginepro di Sardegna or Oud Minerale as daytime frags. Colonia Essenza is probably my favourite for wearing on nights out atm, although I wear it for evening shifts at work too.

>>13469666
>Hail satan digits.
Yea same.

>>13469581
Thanks very much. I read a description of Neroli Portofino and thought it sounded great. Then I saw the price.

It’s crazy that the fragrances are the only thing with his name on I can afford and they’re still too expensive.

I’ll keep your post in mind when I go to try them all.

>>13469534
I think they are old people scents and not very versatile. However I also think you can wear whatever you want because I'm assuming you are inside in a temperature controlled area and you can adjust your application anyways. Or just wear it at home, I wear a lot more stuff at home than outside.
>>13469537
Yes vph is pretty weak. You can buy one of those refillable atomizers and reapply during lunchtime.
>>13469658
>>13469666
>satan preaching
Same I got like 20 bottles now and a bunch of decants but havent bought any the last few weeks but selling some instead. I still get some samples sometimes but I dont really feel the need to buy bottles anymore because I already own X or Y which I would wear in the same occasions and like better than the sample.

>>13469695
Mugler Cologne is a good cheap Neroli Portofino alternative btw.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I looked all of these up. So far looks like Wonderwood is right up my alley. Tam Dao sounds nice but some are saying it reminds them of Thai food which I like to eat but don't want to smell like. Is there any merit to that claim? Lastly, is it worth checking out Bentley Absolute (Gucci PH1 clone)? I hear that has some good cedar notes as well.

>>13469697
I’ve heard that Tom Ford fragrances are more for older men (despite being unisex). I’m 30 so not “old”, but I feel like I could get away with it.

>>13469695

https://www.perfume-parlour.co.uk/neroliz-portofeeno-for-men-0628/

This is surprisingly better than the original for performance and almost identical in scent.

Only downside is it's UK only. Plan B is Colonia Essenza which is similar but has great performance.

>>13469805
I’m in the uk so that’s perfectly fine. Thanks!

>>13469719
I dont get any thai food from the edp, creamy sandelwood sandelwood sandelwood.

How many fragrances does one need to make a decent year round rotation? I'm currently at 8 bottles (and around 5 de ants) and I'm feeling that covers the vast majority of situation I'll be in.

>>13469844
If your pocket suits then spend whatever the fuck you want.
If tight then probably end this hobby asap.

>>13468852
Diptyque Tam Dao smells like straight sandalwood. It has cedar in it but it's mostly sandalwood.

Speaking of which, these threads are extremely repetitive, what's your unpopular suggestion for /frag/ to consider?

>>13469844
its completely arbitrary my man. i have two full bottles and a few decants. i only wear fragrance about half the time anyway

>>13469866
>what's your unpopular suggestion for /frag/ to consider?
Odd layering?

>>13469681
Thanks for the detailed answer!

I often read about people wearing Cool Water in the office, but I personally can't imagine that. It just seems too 'aggressive' for me.

I just started getting into fragrances, so there might be better words to describe my impression of it.

>>13469781
Layton and Lucky are two of the better recent /frag/ shills for sure. Try that Layton Exclusif sometime if you'd like a "night" edition.

>>13469621
Oh fuck Imma have to cop that one. Didn't realize it was already out.

>>13469621
It's good but not amazing

>>13470443

It's not really aggressive at all, it just dies off very quickly. I get two hours at absolute maximum from it. GIT is the much better alternative, projects just as well but is fresher, more formal and more natural.

>>13470548
Cool water sucks, don't know why anybody clings to it

>>13470634
Cheap, easy to find, inoffensive. Babbys first fragrance I guess.

>>13469477

>>13470664
Cool boss. You haven't been talking to me (OP) in any of the recent threads, btw. I almost never self identify or meta post because that's not what the general is for. If I really cared about such things I'd use a tripcode. I post threads only so that the general will remain more or less the same as when I first landed here (2015) and to keep up quality standards on an otherwise rapidly degrading board.

As for the OP images, I just look for pertinent brand / fragrance names on Bing image search and choose high-resolution, semi artistic pictures. You can also crawl pinterest or other image sites for good high def perfume images.

>>13469844

>dressy f/w
>versatile year-rounder

but tbqhwy, >>13469914 is right about it being completely arbitrary. just do you, senpai

It's growing on me, whoever recommended this several months back. Like a lightweight version of Lucky for hot days. For a scent with gourmand leanings, it is actually refreshing and has polite sillage. Only 5-6 hours of longevity, but it's easily noticeable for most of that time.

>>13470445
Please stop memeing Lucky. Pls :(

I want to have a frag I can use all year for most occasions. daytime activities like walks, work, shopping or something for date night women that a woman would love. 21 yrs old, I use la nuit de lhomme right now but it's not as long lasting as I would like. if you have suggestions for 2 frags I'd be down as long as it's not more than $200 total.

What's some stuff that smells fresh like citrus and is relatively cheap?

>>13471227
L'homme ultime

>>13471242
what does relatively cheap mean to you? like whats your max price

Just popped a bottle of 1million lucky. Holy fucking shit I think this is my new favorite frag.

>>13471281
$10-$15

>>13471296
jesus christ. are you unemployed?

nautica voyage and blue seduction off the top of my head. they are a few dollars above your price range but if you look hard enough around sidewalks, vending machines, bar room floors, and laundromats you can scrape together the price difference. you can try haggling with the cashier, or just steal them

Red pill me on Dior Homme Intense

My clothes are all black and martial-chic, I have Rock Rose, Oud Minerale, Black Aoud, Black Line (Mancera), Metal Hurlant and a bunch of others. None of these really go well with my new wardrobe. I'm thinking something that smells dark and natural kinda, but not too bitter

What's /frag/'s opinion on using a deodourant that is similar to the frag you're wearing? Is it too polarizing to use David Beckham Homme Deo alongside a couple sprays of Oud Wood?
I use an antiperspirant most of the time

The hell is this eau sauvage? I smell like a lemon. I don't want people to associate me with a fruit.
Is this what eau sauvage is supposed to smell like?

Was it just sauvage without the "eau" that I was supposed to buy?

>>13474484
Yes actually. Dior has two different Sauvages. Dior Sauvage and Dior Eau Sauvage. Dior Sauvage is marketed by Johnny Depp and smells like Peppers and is generally crowd pleasing, Eau Sauvage is a frumpy older man scent that smells good but isn't youthful like Sauvage.

Can I get a rec for something that smell like The One but fresher for spring/summer? Ideally one that isn't niche. Looking for notes of lavender, cardamom, vanilla, amber, and cedar.

>>13474288
>when the Eros hits you

>>13474729

i have no idea where the thai food thing comes from... isnt that just one review? for me its pure cedar and sandlewood, like a more summery wonderwood.

>>13474729
Dior Homme (and the series generally) fits the bill, but isn't very summery. Those are hard notes to work with for a typical summer fragrance, anon. Let me dig a bit.

>>13474516
Hold off on buying anything until you can save enough rupees for Jeremy: The Fragrance

Picked up a decant of this. It's nice, but I think the comparison between it and Creed Original Vetiver is a little far stretched. I think the drydown is similar due to the vetiver + bergamot, but the Creed comes off with the vetiver being the star of the fragrance the entire time, while Neroli + Bergamot is the star of Mugler cologne.

It's not bad by any stretch. It's really light and refreshing, but personally I'd rather just cop up some extra cash for Original Vetiver since I'm a Vetiver fag. ~110 bucks for 50 ml on fragnet and I'm sure a split of it is floating around for even less.

>>13474944
Price wise though, I dont think the Mugler can be beaten. £31 for 100ml of something that stands up to much more expensive frags is really good value.

I guess I can't comment, since I didn't see it for sale anywhere grey market that wasn't more than 50 bucks. It's certainly some of the best neroli I've smelled though. Performance is disappointing, but it's one of those ones that isn't a massive projector, so I don't mind applying it again mid day

>>13474904
Parfum's Vintage Suave is a clone of vintage LDNH and I got pretty good performance compared to the LNDH trash's performance.

I can't really recommend anything that's similar in note breakdown, but you'd probably like Dior Homme Intense and Mugler Pure Malt

>>13474078
edp definitely. a little boring imo compared to l'instant, you should give a try to both nonetheless

Anyone try Rasasi Hawas? Just blind bought it. Looks like some good under the radar juice.

>>13475101
not really under the radar though, I think Jeremy even mentioned it multiple times.

>>13475109
Who? Its probably not under the radar on this board but nobody I know has it or has heard of it

>>13475118
Well okay you wont find normalfags with anything that isn't dior or chanel etc but as far as I know Hawas is one of the more popular Rasasis.
>who
the biggest youtube fragrance channel

>>13475128
Well shit I guess im a normalfag. Did I do well?

>>13475137
I've never tried it but apparently it's pretty good. Should have monster performance too. People say it's a better version of the old invictus aqua.

>>13475101
It looks like it would smell like the bathroom of a Saudi Arabian airport.

>>13475163
Thats the vibe im going for. Im stoked.

>>13471296
Not this guy, but last thread someone made an awesome post about some beginner tier shit and cheap frags that smelled like some of the popular shit. Can someone repeat that? It was nice. Gonna buy a few

>>13474642
What was the right one?

>>13475572
Interior design thread

>Decide to get this as office wear for summer
>Horrible performance - lasts 1-2 hours max
>Subpar projection

Not sure if I got a bad batch or this is how Grey Vetiver EDP normally is. I am used to summer powerhouses like ADGP so maybe I put my hopes up a bit too much.

>>13475918
Why do you want to smell like a wagecuck?

Bringing 4 frags on vacation with me; 1 Million Lucky, Pineapple Vintage Intense, Acqua Di Gio Profumo, and Emerald Isle. Is that enough variety? I usually only wear the same fragrance once every couple weeks, this is going to feel like not enough

>>13476150
That's a good selection, covering a range of styles and potential occasions. Are you bringing travel sprayers or packing full bottles? I'd suggest the former, or you could pack a single ~50 ml bottle to be your vacation scent.

>>13475918
Give your new bottle a little while to develop fully. A friend wears TFGV EdP sometimes and I notice it on him easily enough.

>>13476182
I've just got a few twist-up travel atomizers. Last time I packed a few frags I had one bust open, so I've learned my lesson on packing full bottles. I'm trying to decide whether or not to bring La Yuqawam as well; Could be good for a few black-tie events I'll be attending

>>13476150
Wow how many pairs of shoes are you bringing? How long is this vacation? Chill the fuck out and bring one frag you can wear everywhere

>>13476312
Unironically 3 pairs of shoes

>>13476317
Woman or poofter?

>>13475137
>>13475176
It’s fantastic. To me it’s Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme + Invictus + Invictus Aqua + plus some spices (think cinnamon).

Projects like mad and lasts a long time. I also blind bought it and really like it. I get lots of compliments aswell.

>>13474729
Azzaro Wanted

>>13475109
Joy Amin loves it

How can I tell the difference between weak juice and olfactory fatigue?

>>13476507
ask someone around you you fucking autist

alright. dior homme eau or prada l'homme?

>>13476519
don't be mean

>>13474564
>>13474073
anything less sweet and more bitter perhaps?

>>13476548
have you tried it? i didn't think it was sweet, not much anyway

>>13476550
yes i got a sample, wearing it on me right now

it's good but not exactly what im looking for. if all else fails ill consider it

>>13476527
I have Prada l'homme, it smells amazing but it's pretty weak and it doesn't last long

>>13476548
have you tried black afgano or black tourmaline? I think those might suit you.

>>13476569
didnt try afghano but tourmaline was hell

Would pic related be a suitable frag for a 20 year old or is it suited towards older guys?

>>13476594
My current signature frag is ysl l'homme if that helps

>>13476554
Pardon maybe, I had a sample yesterday it has some kind of sweet notes but I didn't think it was very sweet. I've never tried memoir so I don't know what you find too sweet.
Else something in the other direction Xerjoff Kobe it's a fresh one that has the bitterness from neroli and petitgrain with some dark elements (for a freshie) in the base.

Best Soap to use?

>>13476685
Unscented

>>13476694
why

>>13476574
maybe check out profumum roma fumidus. supposed to be very dark and smoky. I am going to try this out today so idk if it's something you're looking for

>>13476383
Neither one; I just passed the whole jeans and a graphic tee for everything phase

I'm having a hard time deciding a go to frag for work and most of my casual outfits when the weather cools down.
I usually use Guilty Intense or Body Kouros but I feel the Gucci is too strong for an office job and BK is more of a date frag.
Any suggestions for a 25 y/o male who dresses in a punk, comfycore and palewave style depending on how I feel when its cold out?

>>13476959
designer only? I dont browse this board ouside /frag/ so I dont know what those words mean but I like the dior homme line.

step aside, plebs.

>>13476959
Dior Homme Cologne
Dior Homme Eau
Terre D'Hermes


Paco Rabanne LUCKY

>>13471816
i would honestly prefer having a fragrance designed by a fragrance youtuber to having a fragrance made by a fucking musician that obviously just phoned the entire thing in and really only contributed their name

>>13471743
>article starts with "Nowadays, "
stopped reading there

>>13472396
haha how cringy that someone associated scents with objects that usually have the scent! fucking EMBARRASSING Lmao!
/s
please leave the thread

>>13477010
Need to try this so bad but don't wanna spend any more on frags.

This hobby is so fucking cruel

>>13477207
I wish all bitching poorfag would go.

Just blind bought pic related
What am I in for?

>>13477228
no

>>13477259
>Banana isn't a note

it's shit

>>13477259
Smells like my banana dick probably.

>>13477207
decants are cheap as fuck

>>13477410
Well actually I did just buy a 5ml decant, but I was more worried about falling in love with it like I have all of the other Amouge releases. Easily one of my favorite houses.

>>13477447
Just let it happen, don't be a fucking Jew. Your wallet belongs to frags now.

My dudes, someone was asking about HdP 1725 earlier which is one of my favorites. 2oz is $71 on fragnet right now, just copped a bottle.

>>13476548
avignon, cardinal, full incense

>>13477458
Already oos

>>13475001
Dunno if it's just for UK, but the price has dropped again to 21.70 on their website for anyone after a bottle.

>>13477451
>be a jew
>give money to jews
pick one

I really like tobacco frags, but have only tried designer ones such as PH and CK One Shock.
I've heard that Gucci by Gucci PH is a woody tobacco, but am also interested in TV and Herod.
Should I sample all three I've mentioned and buy my fav?

>>13477722
yes

Just got decants of these two. What am I in for?

>>13477583
>Amouage, a house owned by the Sultan of Oman
>Jews

M8...

>>13477722
Try Kilian Back to Black and Roja Enigma as well if you like tobacco scents.

>>13477928
>taking "Jews" in that context literally
m8....

>>13477259
lmao

>>13477930
Second for Roja Enigma, it's amazing. Pity it's so ridiculously expensive.

>>13478039
FragranceBuy gets it in sometimes now. Still expensive, but not as bad as usual.

>>13478039
You can buy the EDP, that’ll save you a bit. The extrait, honestly, is completely unnecessary. I get 10 hours+ from the EDP and it projects better than the extrait.

>>13476527
>>13476566
i've smelled both already and think they both smell nice, in a similar vein, just wondering how others think they compare

Anybody else match their fragrance to their ties?

For example I'll wear Terre D'Hermes with my Hermes tie, Fahrenheit or Sauvage or one of the Hommes with my Dior tie, Invictus Aqua or Lucky with my Paco Rabanne tie, and so on.

>>13477821
YSL Cologne Bleu has the same ginger dna as original l'homme, just more birght and zingy with a watery twist. Nothing really special. I don't know what to make of Cedrat Boise, I mean my first impression is that it smells nice and asking other people they say it smells really nice too. But the more time I spend with it the more I feel its components are kind of tugging in opposite directions and make the frag confusing. Like on the one hand its got this bright, sweet fruity side, but it also has this heavy, woody, leathery element and it's like the two are tugging at your nostrils for dominance. Plus the fruity aspect isn't really a fresh fruity, it's honestly a little "jammy" and overly sweet sometimes at least for me.

>>13478274
no thats gay dude

budget frags that I like:

Ferrari bright neroli - real nice neroli dominant fragrance.... not quite as nice as neroli portofino or Ermenegildo Zegna Neroli but its 1/4 the price. Bit like a more orangey mugler cologne with more staying power/silage.

Ferrari noble fig - nice quality fig fragrence. reminds me of fico di amalfi but with better longevity and sillage and 1/4 the price. ferrari are on form!

Armaf tres nuit - nice GIT clone for 1/7 the price

Azzaro visit for men - I like incense and i like wood. this does incense and a lovely, deep cedar for fuck all money

Dsquared potion edp - smooth, spicy, woody, dry cinnamon. I like it but its projection and staying power isn't very impressive for an edp

Ikon Zirh - nice smokey incense that costs nothing and lasts a couple of hours

anyone got some budget frags they want to share??

>>13478274
just when i think i've seen peak autism....

>>13478331
does bright neroli remind anyone else of these, specifically the yellow or orange one, can't remember but these instantly came to mind when I first smelled it

>>13478274
I match my shaving cream, aftershave, balm and fragrence.

Today I shaved with stirling orange chill shaving soap, used fine accouterments's l'orange noir aftershave, a neutral balm then used TdH eas tres fraiche

>>13478426
i get a bit of a cleaning product/old lady smell from neroli and petit-grain in general...but in a good way

>specifically the yellow or orange one

nigga, the color don't affect the smell of no damn magic marker. Damn you stoopid as fuck

creed aventus is overrated

>>13478435
they are scented markers you retard

>>13478286
Alrighty. I love L’Homme and L’Homme Ultime. I think it’s a perfect fit for my collection.

Weird cause I hated La Nuit.

>>13478445

>>13478426
Whoa, those things take me back.

>>13478426
>>13478532
>tfw it's been at least 20 years since I smelled those damn markers and I can immediately, perfectly recall the scent of each color
The fucking brown / cinnamon one, maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

Has Tommy Hilfiger ever produced a decent scent?

>>13478588
The original tommy for men isn't bad

>>13478588
Tommy and Tommy Girl were good on release way back in like 1995 but nothing since has been well received.

>>13478585
I'm sorry for your joyless youth, anon.

Haven't been to Sephora in about a year since I first got into frags. When I went last I remember being super pumped about all the frags. Went today and realized how far I've come since I bought my first frag (the one EDT) on /frag/'s recommendation. Thanks guys it's been a great journey.

So is Drakkar Noir a meme or pretty good?

>>13478803

that's subjective, just test it or buy a bottle, it's cheap anyway. Nobody can help you with that question

>>13478803
both. like a /mu/core album. classic but overplayed.

>>13468825
I realized I actually do like EROS, after a couple of days

Besides Into The Void, what's a fragrance that has the void and similar concepts for inspiration?

inb4 air

>>13478803
From what I've read it's a basic, shaving cream type of scent. Didn't age well as far as complexity goes

Dior Homme Intense

Yes or No?

>>13478975
Yes.

>>13478975
Nah. Not versatile enough. Virtually unwearable for any occassion other than Winter evening night out. Unless that's what you're looking for.

>>13478986
Thanks! I was thinking "summer scent". If DHI's out I am choosing between:

Yves Saint Laurent L'homme
Lalique White
Armaf Club De Nuit Intense

>>13478996
Great, DHI was the absolute worst Summer choice of that line up. Of those 3 I've only smelt L'Homme and it's fantastic, very versatile. Other 2 am less sure of, but have heard Club de Nuit is a good Aventus clone (Aventus is my signature).

I am reading a lot of "sweet" and "overpowering" about YSL. What do you say?

>>13479044
To me it's pretty agreeable and light if you don't overspray. If you're unsure you can go into a department store and try it, should be pretty easy to find, not like the other 2.
