Hey guys what's a good calone for a poor college student? Panty droppers only! Must be beast mode and not cloying or synthetic, keep it under $30. Don't rec reformulated frags.

Thinking about going for LNDL Frozen Cologne. Price is good but how does it do in colder weather (autumn and early winter)? Is it exclusively summer frag?

This shit is magical, but don't buy it because I want it all to myself

>>13703381
To me frozen cologne smells like la nuit de l'homme but tweaked for daytime use desu

It's why it's the best la nuit flanker, and that's why it's also discontinued.

What's a summer-night fragrance with a fresh, natural scent?

I hate frags with mass appealing, generic, bland, synthetic scents, and my favourite summer scent is L'Occitane Eau de Cedrat, but it's not really a night scent.

>>13703527
Lndh
Eros
1million
Invictus

>>13703701
here's your upvote good sir!

>>13703527
Aqva Amara maybe?

Looking for a cheapish fragrance that will last long and give off an aura of masculinity/attractiveness/hygiene.

Here is some information on me.

-Early twenties
-Work at a startup
-5'11
-Light skin with brown hair and brown eyes
-About a 6/10 looks wise objectively
-Fairly feminine face with thick eyebrows
-Fairly muscular

Hope that's enough information.

>>13703920
Oh, forgot, preferably an all season/daily wearable fragrance as I only really want to buy one.

I'm at the office most of the day and there's not many people working there so must be suitable for that type of environment.

If that's not realistic then fall/winter is fine.

>>13703920
Typically things that give off a sense of hygiene are fresher, but they don’t last long. Prada L’Homme is extremely clean smelling, and great for the office. It’s not the most masculine fragrance though. Grey Vetiver may be a good one, but it depends what you call cheap. It’s probably on the upper end of the designer price point.

If not, just stick to the classics like Bleu De Chanel EdT.

>>13703920
Try Aqua Di Gio Profumo.

Now this is some newfaggotry

>>13703380
Is this satire?

>>13704097
Yes, well done.

>>13704024
get Le Labo Vetyver 46 instead

So I finally tried Ombré Leather after nice review of anon in the last thread and was pleasantly surprised, decent scent with nice performance, not "in your face" as Tuscan Leather, smoother, probably gonna cop a 50 ml bottle.
Tried Dark Lord by Kiian, not impressed. Annoying gunpowder for first 3 hours which then shifts to some sort of polite boozy-leathery mix. Maybe it's more suitable for the mature audience. Also, I was expecting some Interlude-tier performance, but it's just not there, overpowered by TF on my other had. Meh.

Can someone rec me an alcoholic frag I can wear casually?
Is Pure XS any good? Or should I use 212 VIP or Pure Malt instead?

Let's see your collections.

Newfag here, gimme a quick rundown on pic related.

>>13704236
A fellow Brit?

Not bad. Given how frequently it’s shat on, what made you go for Sauvage?

Nice to see somebody that loves L’Homme as much as me.

>>13704256

Indeed, how did you figure that out?

I actually bought Sauvage last week after turning my nose up at it for so long. It smells pleasant and clean so it's one of those i plan on wearing when i can't choose or don't have an occasion for anything else, it's the lazy choice. This is what i was doing with L'Homme, but it just doesn't stick around for long and got a little boring. Perfect work frag though, completely inoffensice

>>13704255
Light and inoffensive, but boring. It's not really meant for longevity.

>>13703397
Where can you buy it?

>>13704255
It's a nice classic barbershop scent which smells simultaneously gruff and refined. There's no longevity though so either look into a (really expensive since it's discontinued) bottle of YSL Rive Gauch or look into other barbershop scents. GIT, Cool Water, Drakkar Noir are my top picks for older ones. Newer ones which add some modernity (could be good or bad) include Dior Sauvage and Diesel Fuel For Life (same perfumer as Rive Gauche)

>>13704236
How do you like Ombre Leather?

>>13704236
Plus Mugler Pure Tonka, ordered this week as it was cheap ($41) on fragnet.

>>13704289
>how did you figure that out?
Probably the timestamp on your image, or the format of the time, or both.

>>13704289
Fair enough. I’m still unsure about Sauvage. I’m not the biggest fan of the opening of the Parfum, but I like it later on. Never tried the toilette though.

>>13704309
Neither, it was the sample. Fragrance Samples U.K. is what I use and the green label is pretty distinctive.

>>13704300
I bought it on FragranceX for about $22 with a coupon. 1.7 oz.

I sprayed Tuscan Leather 13 hours ago and I’ve showered using a strong smelling shower gel and I can still smell the bloody thing. This is obscene.

TOM FORD
TUSCAN LEATHER
SMELLIN' LIKE A BRICK

>>13704307

Perfect leather scent IMO, it bridges the gap between masculine, rugged and wearable. The opening is strong leather, which after 20 minutes or so gives way to the base notes while still being there in the background. Very well blended and very smooth. If you want a wearable leather frag it's amazing. Longevity is great too, Aventus gives me 2 hours or so, this one is all day.

Try it on skin though, paper does not do it justice.

>>13704358
Drake the type a nigga to rap about perfume

"It's sweet but not in a bad way"

Grey Vetiver, Guerlain Vetiver or Encre Noire Sport?
Which is a good entry point into vetiver frags? I love the slight grassiness of BdC EDP's drydown and want more of it.

>>13704401
i havent tried the other two or BdC, but Guerlain Vetiver is very dry and grassy

>>13704401
I don't like any of them but would stick with Grey Vetiver.
Keep in mind that vetiver usually is not that likable as some fans of Guerlain Vetiver tend to say itt.

>>13704329

FSUK is my go to for samples, well spotted.

Sauvage EDT is longer lasting on me and less heavy than the EDP, also with the EDP you lose a lot of that heady ambroxan opening which really lifts the top notes and gives off that fresh clean vibe. A lot of people that dislike Sauvage (myself included when it came out and up until now) hate the popularity and make it a factor in their bias againt it. As a scent it just works so well, however much i hate the fact that everyone and their dog wears it, but i don't really see it as a fragrance, i see it as something to wear when i just want to smell clean and inoffensive, and not to make a statement, which is what some of my other frags are for.

>>13704401
The opening of Grey Vetiver is like having twigs shoved up your nose both in terms of smell and the fact it makes me want to sneeze. That said, it’s one of my favourites in Spring.

>>13704236
great meme collection

>>13703963
>Bleu De Chanel
How does the EdT compare to EdP? Considering it for every day office work.

>>13704422
Have you ever found an inconsistency in how their vials spray? It seems to be ok for most of them, but occasionally I get one that just sprays a jet of liquid. Not ideal. Otherwise I can’t fault them.

Thanks though, I might give the EdT a shot. I’m relatively new to fragrances, but surely these things must come in circles, mustn’t they? By that I mean that people love it, everybody wears it, everybody gets bored and moves on. But when they move on surely it becomes a bit more unique again when fewer people wear it?

>>13704443
EdT is my favourite of the two. It’s more subtle and seems to last the same amount of time. I just find the EdP a bit pointless really. Past the opening I don’t see any significant difference, at least not to justify paying more.

10 sprays of DHI crew.

>>13704455
Neat, thanks.

>>13704448

Never had an issue with them, i actually love the sprays, i think they rival Creed when it comes to the amount they dispense which i like.

I wouldn't worry about that too much, if you like it, wear it, if it works for the masses there's a reason. Plus i'd rather smell of Sauvage anyday than a lot of obscure niche scents, which are technically brilliant, but often only work for certain people or in certain occasions. Next time you're able to, smell Frederic Malle "The Night" (£580 for 50ml) Very exclusive but also very challenging for most people.

>>13704463
The Chad Miasma keeps me warm in the winter months.

>>13703527
nuit etoilee by annick goutal is a superb and underrated summer-night perfume that's fresh and aromatic. you could also try racine by mpg or un jardin sur le nil by hermes

>>13704236

Some of the ones i didn't post earlier

how the fuck do you faggots buy a scent without smelling it first
what kind of retarded shit is this

have been wearing fat electrician for the past few days but have been disappointed with sillage.
any opinions on this frag?

>>13704522
>>13704522
WHERE CAN I GO SO SMELL A BUNCH OF THEM
SOMEONE HELP!!!!!!!

>>13704540

MFW living in London

thinking about getting this for my bf, y/n?

>>13704600
depends. is he the bottom or are you?

>>13704524
Tried a sample, I didn't like it at first, but the more I wore it the more I appreciated it's depth, there's a lot going on in it. Performance wise I thought it was pretty good, but then that might just be me. Overall it was a like, but I'm not sure enough of a like to make me buy a full bottle.

>>13704401
Guerlain is perfection. But if you want a more neutral frag, because most people do not like vetiver, get Gray Vetiver.
>>13704522
Never sampled anything. Early on, it was a lot of money wasted, but these days i just look at the notes and it's enough to be sure i won't hate the frag. The only exception is Serge Lutens which i don't even look at the notes as i love all the frags i got from the house.

>>13704422
Sauvage isn't inoffensive lmao
Literally an assault to the nose from spray to drydown

>>13703363
Bump for OG Santal

>>13703527
>a fresh, natural scent
Invictus is none of these, it's a strong, dominant, in your face bitch, sorta thing. Appropriate for pussy hunting at the club or disco. It's about as subtle as a shovel smacked up side your face.

>>13704255
Note that this is an after shave lotion, not a cologne. It's meant to be used as a mild antiseptic for the skin, after the barber has given you a shave. It's not supposed to be long lasting or bold and overpowering. It's intentionally mild so your actual chosen scent can show through after the Pinaud wears off.

>>13703363
getting into fragrances recently
just bought this
howd i do for first fall cologne?

>>13704236
>>13704502
daaaamnnnn boi yo stash looking fresh, just toss that Sauvage and it's a 9.5/10 for me personally cuz nothing's perfect :^)

>>13704936
IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE OUR TURN THIS SEASON ;_;

Somebody redpill me on this RIGHT FUCKING NOW. It it really the best, or is the aussie thot just talking out of her ass??

>>13705025
Her lists vary wildly every single video she puts out. It is good old school smelling scent. Most will think its smells like an old man. Its a meme.

>>13705025
>>13705201
Which Aussie?

>>13705274
the one that talks funny

>>13704736

Anything is if you spray too much. I think that's one of the reasons why people don't like it. Many of the young men and teenagers that buy it in the hopes of attracting females can't control themselves and spray a fuck load which is really bad. 1 spray to the chest and leave it.

Been wearing this one almost exclusively this summer, thinking of buying a new one, but want to try new ones. Any opinions/what I should try next.

>>13705592
How did you like it? Been thinking of picking that up

>>13705592
Can't find this one on fragrantica, what's up with that? Only a Inez & Vinoodh thing

>>13705689
Dunno man. just a thought but maybe it's just the same one.

>>13705648
Yeah, my absolute favorite at the time being. Great perfume that smells kinda manly but not only tobacco and wood like most others.

>>13706065
She has a very distinct way of speaking, dies everyone in her area sound like that?

>>13706065
You don’t because I think she’s in New York.

>>13705981
>She said she’s never had a boyfriend and I think that might be why.
no, the reason why is because she's a thot

>>13706119
Fine with me. Hook me up.

I'm considering Boss bottled as a daily winter scent, is the original the best to get? Or intense?

>>13706127
Intense, original has poor performance.

>>13705798

Yea most likely. Grey market sites usually have aventus 120ml bottles for ~$300. You won't find a cheaper unit price unless you happen to find a bottle on CVS or Costco.

>no one at work notices any of my frags
>people start complimenting chads sauvage

>>13706255
M O G G E D
You're probably not attractive enough for them to make them spit out a compliment to you anon.
But I'm sure you do smell nice, for what it's worth.

>>13706255
One of the first things to learn about fragrances is that you won’t get compliments from people that wouldn’t have complimented you otherwise.

>>13706349
>>13706352
you're both right, but could it be because my frags just dont have enough sillage? I can certainly notice chads sauvage from a distance.

>>13706428
Yeah, maybe. What are you wearing, and how many sprays?

Rate my autumn rotation lads
Also I'm copping ysl l'homme ultime and armani code profumo soon

>>13706428
Overspraying is worse, in my opinion. You'll go from """okay""" to "fuck that guy he's such a tryhard"
You already smell good, now go improve other aspects of your life - fitness and health, mind, skills, skincare, hairstyle/hair treatment, personality, etc.

>>13706526
Would you like to explain your choices? I don’t mean that in a critical way, just curious why you chose what you did.

I love Ultra Male despite being a miserable man in his late twenties that sits in dingy pubs drinking warm beer.

What is a scent that is mysterious, yet appealing to women?

I tried amouage lyric, but it smelled too ''elderly'' for me.
Also, I tried Herod, even though it smells nice, it smells like a damn candystore or something

>>13706428
i fucking hate smelling someone from 5m away.
Don't be that fucking guy.

>>13706603
Because dey smell nice to my nose, das it. I'm also a pleb who only buys on retail at discounted prices and doesn't trust decanters nor online sellers. And no, I've yet to receive compliments as well - actually i already have but old people, gays, and children's conpliments don't count.

>>13706712
Fair enough. Can I suggest Tom Ford Noir Extreme?

>>13706875
There's none available at the retailer i go to (work) where i can get it discounted at 30% off or better, sadly. But I've smelled it before at another store and indeed it smells nice.

>>13706648
Secretions magnifique

Ok I have not been on this general in months and not much seems to have changed. Is samplesperg still around? Who is the autist/sperg of the season? What is the current dead meme?

Can anyone recommend me rose scents for men? I really like Black Aoud.

>>13707279
le labo rose 31, even though it's not THAT rosy

was hooked after staying at a fairmont

>>13707279
seconding Le Labo Rose 31 (even though it's not for me because of the cumin note; still the most dynamic frag i've ever tried)

also, Amouage Lyric Man and Serge Lutens Sa Majeste la Rose

>>13707328
>>13707295
The cumin note is what kind of scares me off from this, I think I'll buy a sample though and try it out.

What the fuck? I just got my sample of Ultra Male thinking it would be a good addition to my entrepreneurial rotation of Sauvage and Eros but it just smells like Pink Sugar.

Why does CK have the best fragrance names but have mediocre performance and generic smells?

>>13707854
Absolute nutter. So uh... Review?

>>13707876
It definitely smells like a cologne or perfume, not just a vial of despair. The notes of despair however absolutely come in after the initial sniff. it reminded me of having a bloody nose except instead of the blood smell leaving my nose it was penetrating my entire face + it smelled heavily of sweat and vaginal fluid (to me).

I would absolutely never wear it but I'm glad it exists.

Is this the most overrated fragrance on earth? After paying $120 for a bottle you're getting 3 hours of performance at most and it literally just smells like generic axe body wash.

Worst fucking advice ever. I refuse to believe you guys are NOT trolling when you post shit like this. It isn't helpful at all and shows how little you know about frags. You still need to get your little word in, though, so you chime in with this generic shit that any newfag could come up with, in order to look like you fit in. How about you find a new hobby jackass?

>>13703363
Damn, you americans and euros have it easy. I'd bath myself in niche fragrances if I was from any of these places. You should be glad everyday to be born there.

Here a 50ml bottle of a designer fragrance costs around 300 "money" or even more. A bottle of any TF or Creed goes up the 1000 "money" mark.

The fun fact is that the minimum wage is about R$ 954 ($ 233 in today's exchange rate).

>>13708271

To be fair 95% of "niche" uses mostly the same stuff as designer and have inflated value. I'd say go to legit gray market sites for the really pricey stuff. Or if there's a store that sells perfume in your area, you could work there for staff discount / freebies with excess stock.

this is like 3x more than what i've paid for any frag before. i haven't bought a bottle since last december though I've sold about 20 bottles since then so I guess it's ok

Boss Bottled Intense, Pure Havane or Guilty Intense for a daily driver scent for work and casual when its cold?

>>13708939
BBI works better as "daily frag"

note that BBI is sold at almost similar prices at edp and edt

also note that there was a great deal for 200ml on notino *yesterday* but didn't order -.-

>>13708903
Please, please, please tell me you tested it first.

Anybody here tried Boss Bottle Night? It was the first one I bought way back when it first came out and I loved it, but I put it in a cupboard and only found it recently. It’s actually pretty nice. Not great performance, mind.

>>13708698
excellent fragrance.i dont think you should be too concerned about matching with your clothes

>>13709008
I have BB night as a deo stick (it was a stocking stuffer) that i use for the gym mostly, it's relatively floral (violet) without being sweet, and in this form has whole day performance (which kinda makes me think it's a waste to use for gym but whatever)

Reminder to take Chad's advice

>>13704401
I don't "get" Vetiver Frags. Smelled a few of them and just don't seem to like the note at all. Do you have to develop a liking for these parfumes (like for beer) or is this just personal preference ?

>>13709258

>>13709262
Adidas fragrances to go with your adidas tracksuits and skateshoes desu

>>13709262
tf are you talking about for skaters. is this like an identity for you or do you think all hobbyists have a particular smell? im not a skater but i imagine most wouldnt wear any

>>13709266
>>13709271
>>13709099

>>13709233
One of the first fragrances I ever tried was Grey Vetiver and it remains one of my favourites. It’s just preference, although I guess how it’s blended can sometimes make a difference.

>>13709275
I don't know man, just combined the images. No diss, I am 5'10 manlet as well, would look hilarious near Jeremy

>>13709266
Why the fuck are his suits so tight?

>>13709335
For the most intense ladies reactions

>>13708698
Anyone know where to get IB at a discount? Any decant sites that do 25ml?

yfw Molecule 01 and Escentric 01 are not the same fucking thing o_O

>>13709981
its not on discount sites because they dont move big volume. register on basenotes and create a thread on the splits and decants subforum

>>13704289
Half a Britain smells of your collection.
Perhaps it's the most meme collection possible other than going into boots and buying out entire shelf.

folks here might turn their nose up at bdc but the edp is fucking solid

>>13703363
What are these fragrances actually like?

Like, I've read a lot of descriptions of skin scent/anti-fragrance/etc., but what kind of impression do you get? I think I want a decant.

>>13710194
if you want to know what they are actually like and still do not think you have a good idea after reading dozens of reviews, its time to order a sample. blind buying often ends in regret for newcomers

>>13709005
Well yes I have a decant but not the actual batch/bottle itself

I got a legit 100ml bottle online for $100 less than retail

Just what the fuck do you want, faggot? Apparently, you are dead set to potentially blowing hundreds of dollars blind buying fragrances, after which, you'll probably come here and bitch about it. Fuck off.

>>13710294

theres nowhere else to go from here except sampling or blind buying. since he is new, my practical advice was to buy samples of fragrances he is interested in.

he was NOT asking for recommendations of particular frags based on notes, occasions, age, or budget. he asked to know what frags are actually like. only one way to really do that which is to try them yourself. your own retardation and emotional instability shits up this thread five times worse than you complain about. take a breath before making noise next time

I don't see enough love here for Cedrat Boise. To me, it's the perfect cool weather stand-in for Aventus. None of the silly pineapple or birch; you get the blackcurrant-vanilla-wood portion of A, dialed up to 11, and it's fantastic. I revisited Cedrat Boise today and received 3 compliments. Two sprays under clothing will go hard for 10-12 hours, easy.

What do you fuckers think about Savage from Johnny Depp?

>>13710470
I fucken love it

One of the GOAT frags

The only problem is it’s too popular but I mean you don’t smell it THAT often, most guys don’t even wear frags and then only a small subset of them would wear sauvage.

Is versace the dreamer good

I wasn't the one asking for advice, I'm just sick of you assholes wasting replies to give half-assed meaningless advice that doesn't help anybody in the thread. Next time you wanna post "LE FIND OUT WHAT YOU LIKE" how about you open blacked.com and jerk off to cuck porn like the soibois you are.

>>13710488
No it smells dated, incense ass smell

>>13710485
I wear it once in a while and the only people who have ever told me "oh you're wearing Sauvage, that shits boring bro, been there" are other dudes who are into fragrance. Most grills ive hooked up with while wearing it like it quite a bit, and you don't have to worry about smelling like anybody's boyfriend or ex because none of these bitches have boyfriends anymore in 2018 anyway. At the worst you'll just smell like the last chad she fucked

>Dude aventus is gay because it’s popular lmao

I was looking at Fragrance reviews on Youtube and is this guy legit, should I be taking his advice? or is he a paid reviewer?

>>13710916
The honest truth is that fragrance reviews are completely fucking pointless apart from objective measures like longevity and projection

Go out and try them, because there’s no other way to know

>>13710519
>>13710569
Tried it on; smells nice at least around 15cm away from the nose. Any closer and it smells weird. Good whiff, bad sniff

>>13710485
>>13710520
Nice, didn't even know if I'd get a positive answer or not. Sauvage is basically the only thing I've ever seriously bought and I never come to /fa/ hardly. I think the only two other things I've ever had in my life, and this was more than 10 years ago in my mid teens, was CK One and Herrera 212. You remember those? I don't know why I had those back then and I don't wear anything besides Sauvage on rare occasions.

>>13710488
One of my favorites, cinnamony tobacco with a syntheticish sparkle. Cheap too.

What are some good perfumes? Recently I used my mother's perfume instead and girls were telling me I smelt good for the first time.

>>13711065
you just answered your own question, ask your mom for the perfume, and girls liked it so why change.

I’ve been using ysl l’homme for some months now and am really enjoying it. I’m from a pretty small town, so it’s not like anyone around here wears it. But I still want something with similar roots that defines me a bit better and isn’t just some standard line product. Light femme touches. Any suggestions?

>>13711142
Ysl l'homme ultime

do any of you perfume fags also have a fine spirits hobby?

>>13710443
sounds good. where's the best place to buy?

>>13710443
I haven't tried it during colder weather, used for the summer.
What's different? More prominent woody notes?
Also, performance was not that good on my skin.

>>13711210
I tried to get into whiskey, realized that it's not for me, stuck with wine now coz happened to live in France.

>>13708698
i love it but i wear it for myself to appreciate the artistry more than anything else. 2 sprays on the back of my left hand

>>13711210
Yep. Whisky.

>>13711339
>>13711378
thx for responding! for me it began with whisky but i began to see the potential connections quite soon. i think the first connection i definitely remember was soneone close to me saying she'd like to spray the bourbon we were having on herself.

these days i'm into both, keep them strictly apart, but budget and esp bottle wise way in favour of the spirits

>>13711098
I agree with this.

>>13711412
Yeah there are definite similarities, you can really go into a lot of depth with both and spend a fuckload on money on both as well. I'm swinging the other way at the moment, I've spent a lot of years with whisky and know pretty much exactly what I like and where I want to go, but I'm still pretty much a newcomer to fragrances so have a lot more to explore.

>>13711091
kekkkkkkkkkk

Is 24 gold worth trying out?

>>13711065
>What are some good perfumes?
lurk moar, brainlet

>>13711583
Worth trying, yes. Massively synthetic, but ridiculously good performance for the price.

>>13710916
Think of him as a salesman. I don’t know if he’s paid or not, but it’s in his interest to hype things up. All YouTube fragrance channels are glorified Fragrantica pages. The notes don’t change, and it’s all personal preference of one person. Redolessence is the only one I think is worth watching, but even then it’s just one man’s opinion. No amount of research or YouTube videos is a substitute for trying it yourself.

Sometimes things like “Best high-heat fragrance” videos can point you in the right direction, but ultimately it’s on you.

>>13703363
Guys where can I get Eros for the cheapest? Not sure if I trust Amazon since a lot of people have gotten funny smelling bottles or just batches that don't smell like the original

>>13711829
one of the links above (fragrancenet) has it for $78.99
Macys for $88
Walmart for $51.16

>>13711857
Is fragrancenet legit? They have it for 50% off for the 3.4oz and I saw the 30% off with sign up so I signed up and have that code as well, comes out to about 33 bucks but it just seems like way too much of a discount.

Also the reviews here on it are sketchy

https://www.consumeraffairs.com/cosmetics/fragrancenet.html?page=2

>>13711862
damn 2 star review looks iffy asf...just to be safe buy it in person (macys, nordstrom, sephora, etc) sure it's more expensive but at least you know it's legit

>>13711862
>is the retailer specifically mentioned in the OP legit?
>nah, better overspend like a good goy

>>13711862
>consumer affairs
lol, thats a website for people exclusively to complain and for brands to buy negative reviews of competitors. look at any brand:
>Old Spice: rating 1 star 405 reviews
>Crest: rating 1 star 842 reviews
>Gilette: rating 1.5 star 120 reviews
also, take care to read the reviews, many of them are like "this company did not meet reroute my package after it shipped. i demanded to have an immediate refund and never got one. customer assistance wasnt kissing my feet and begging for forgiveness! will not be doing business again" shipping issues are not the company's fault once its in the courier's hands. i also noticed a great deal of the reviews are in the run-up to christmas when shipping is at its peak

very few reviews are about the fragrances themselves, and perfume is an even more subjective product than clothes so i am skeptical of claims they are fakes. look at the reviews on basenotes. can we put the "is fragrancenet legit?" question to rest this question once and for all?

>>13711884

I usually favor the Bleu EdT. However, I'm wearing the EdP today and have received two compliments and an inquiry about "what cologne are you wearing?"
It's not even lunch time.

>>13712041
>What cologne are you wearing?
If your response wasn't "no I'm not wearing a cologne" then you're a faggoy

>>13704443
get the edp. its a solid, masculine scent good for everyday use. you can find both for nearly the same price

Eros and Invictus. JPG as daily wear.

>>13712095
You must smell like diabetes.

>>13703363
Literally god tier cologne, only thing i wear

Best cologne I've ever bought, wear it everyday

>>13708271
We are poor Anon face it thats why even the most pleb picks can most of the time set us appart other dudes. But yeah... its even Hard to find some brands here let alone the niche stuff, Ive been looking for a VIW since a bit and couldn't find a decent price.

What's the deal with FragranceX and their coupons? Is it a scam or do they just spam your ass of once you give them your email for the coupon?

Hey guys is fragrancebuy legit? Don't wanna get scammed.

>>13711210
I have professional-level bartending training. Mixology is a big hobby of mine. I love making interesting, well-balanced cocktails. Given the link between our senses of taste and smell, I guess it sort of makes sense that I’m interested in both.

I cook too.

>>13712409
It’s literally in the OP as a recommended site to buy bottles...

>>13706255

as it ever was

>>13706526
i've got all of those except the ysl frozen. might be a 'pleb' selection but they're all great scents.

Hey guys I found a cologne for super cheap on Fragrancenet.com. How legit is that site? I don't want to get ripped off or a fake cologne.

Is Eros a good sleazecore frag for a 20 something zoomer?

>>13712777
Yes. Don’t buy any of it. You will be arrested.

Fuck it lads, I'm going in blind. I've never smelled this but I've heard great things about it. I'm going to regret this aren't I?

>>13712820
I have regretted about 90% of my cheapie blind buys. I haven't tried that one but I think its safer than most.

>>13712820
if that shit smells anything like artisan blu, don't bother.

>>13712777
no. you know after the holidays when all the perfume is on clearance? retailers sell to discount stores, or else they eat the loss. ive gone to ebay before but you have to know what to look for like non-stock photos and hobbyist sellers

>>13708034
What do you mean by this?

>>13708271
Compre de vendedores nos grupos de Facebook, porra, essas lojas de shopping metem a mão sem dó, chega a ser quase o dobro do preço. E para de falar "money", converta o preço para dólares e dê a todos uma noção mais realista da nossa situação.

>>13712985
I actually just got some Green Irish Tweed (sample) so I'm gonna find out.

>>13712985
When a fragrance is popular enough it gets copied not just by other fragrances but by all manner of things such as cleaning products which can basically ruin the original fragrance for somebody especially if they smell it for the first time after they smelled the imitators.

>>13710294
jesus youre insufferable but heres some advice you don't deserve: buy a sampler at Sephora and it includes a voucher for an approx. 50ml bottle. shits like $50 and includes like 15-20 samples and you pick which bottle you want. or just HURR DURR BUY SAMPLES because this is actually good advice and you're incapable of taking it lmaooo

i fucked up buying thistuscan leather sample, it smells like old man. why is it rated so highly?

Are you suppose to apply it on skin, clothes, or both? how many sprays and where?

>>13713165
skin. depends on the strength of the perfume. strong ones i just do one spray to the chest. moderate, a spray to the chest and a spray to one wrist, touching them. a weak perfume ill add a spray to the neck

everyone has their own way. fragrance is a personal enjoyment to me so i spray conservatively. some here advocate the chad miasma and walk in a fog of cologne you can smell from the next room

>>13713165
>how many sprays and where?
depends on the frag and how noticeable you want to be

i generally spray behind each ear, back of the neck, and one on the chest. if the frag isn't strong or if im going to be in a large open area, same, but one on each shoulder instead of one on the chest

>>13713165
I do the classic one spray on the wrists, rub together, get a little on the neck. When I'm going out ill spray in the air and walk through too. ofc strength of perfume matters but more than that I'm afraid I'll reek like a high schooler

>>13713184
>>13713237
When people say 'spray to the chest', does this mean underneath the shirt or right above where the collar is

>>13713287
i spray near the top of my sternum, before putting my shirt on. look anon you have to actually try things out yourself, nobody is gonna hold your hand all the way through the process. youve had three different people answer your question thats more than enough help the boomers here had from their dad or older brother

>>13713282
>one spray
>rub
>spray in the air and walk through
>classic

>>13713282
M8, no one can smell you at all. That spray the air and walk through it does fuck all.

Don’t be afraid to spray. Get the Chad miasma going. You’re not gonna get compliments if no one can smell you. Gotta spray big to smell big!

>>13711210
I dabble in whiskeys. Only have a few. Managed to get my hands on Pappy 20 and 2016 George T Stagg. Both excellent, but so are some $30 bottles like Elijah Craig.

>>13713382
This

4 sprays minimum no matter what you're wearing

>>13713323
Exactly dude nobody is going to come up to you in the street at say "hm your frag really shouldn't be applied to both wrists, just one. And your placement on your sternum is a little high." Just fuckin' rock it and figure it out
