We need to have a poorfag guide for different notes

Lets see OPs collection

>>13816140
There is only one cologne a man will ever need.

Obsession by Calvin Klein.

>>13816152
Fresh pic just for you.

>>13816168
dat hdp bottle. do you have any frederic malle?

please help.
>>13816124

>>13816169
I was gonna cop Portrait of a Lady but smelled it on a woman and thought it was too close to Bond NY Oud for me to really drop 3+ bills on. Which FM is best FM in your book?

>>13816168
man that's pretty sexy. i like how messy it is.

>>13816170
Obsession by Calvin Klein

This is the only fragrance I've every liked, its so unique to me. Anything else similar to it?

>>13816168
how do you like zara 8.0 and gourmand leather? how do you feel about zara overall? i have 9.0 and it's a great take on dior homme. more masculine to my nose. good performance too.

>>13816174
i like portrait of a lady as well, but thats fair. cant go wrong with carnal flower. musc ravageur is overrated

>>13816168
Honest question. Aren't you afraid most of those will go bad? I have about 20 frags now and barely use most. There's no way I'll ever go through them all, I feel.

>>13816215
keep them out of heat and light and they'll last decades. (protip: keep them in their boxes)

>>13816182
versace eros

>>13816147
What did you have in mind, anon?

>>13816168
Fuckin' yowza! Nice haul.

this is my daily, it makes me smell like detergent and i love it

this is my everyday scent and it makes me smell like detergent i love it

>>13816385
Nice bro

>>13816168
Tell me about Layton and Carlisle. I've been dying to sniff them.

Recs for scents that match the vibe of Tom Ford Grey Vetiver

>>13816239
Don't need no boxes for dat shieet
Just keep them in a cool, dark, and dry place and away from contaminants.

>>13816544
i keep the boxes just in case i move or decide to sell them. makes things so much tidier.

Guys how do I keep my frags safe in a tropical weather? All my bottles gone bad and I've been gone without any frags for months now.

>>13816455

Not OP but Layton is class - definitely the best opening I've ever smelled as well

>>13816613
I’ve told you a bunch of tines, m8. Get yourself a mini fridge.

>>13816707
I know, anon. Maybe I should just buy that mini fridge after all.

>>13816388
yuck

>>13816733
It’d probably cost you less than a bottle of a designer fragrance. You really have no excuse.

>>13816388
You could at least buy Individuel...

Thoughts on 24 Gold?

I know 1 million lucky is the latest meme scent but I do like how it smells and also the look of the bottle.
But I feel my grunge/roadman aesthetic wouldn't match with it...

>>13816890
Ew

>>13816890
>roadman

go away blackman

>>13816886
Not bad, actually. Kind of smells like roasted marshmallows to me. Go easy on it, though, it’s ultra beast mode. 1 spray is enough for people to smell you, 3-4 will gas out a room. It also lasts forever.

Just letting /frag/ know you can get 4 2ml samples of almost any MFK fragrance from their website for only 14 euros. No shipping costs to the U.S.

Pretty good deal if you ask me.

Thoughts on this one?

could a 5'9 otter-mode twink like me pull this off?
general thoughts on it?

>>13817063
forgot pic cause i'm retarded in the morning.

>>13816140
any websites that ship to estonia?

>>13817108
Notino might.

>>13816164
my dads fav, CLASSIC

>>13817115
notino doesn’t, that’s why I’m asking

>>13817175
Sorry, can’t help you then.

>>13817108
Aus Liebe zum Duft should ship there. There's a link in the OP.

>>13816520
Tom Ford Grey Vetiver

>>13817174
it really does smell great

>>13817335
Anon pls

>almost a quarter way through my $100 100ml perfume
>still have not used it for any meaningful event

Girl perfume tier list, anyone?

>>13817488
I base my tier list on the women in my life and their signature scents. They're not fragrance autists so the list is just basic pleb tier stuff
1. Guerlain météorites le parfum
2. Chanel allure edp
3. Chanel chance eau tendre
4. Chanel coco mademoiselle
5. Dior hypnotic poison edp
6. Mugler alien essence absolue
7. Dolce and gabbana light blue
8. Carolina herrera good girl
9. Jean paul gaultier classique
10. CK deep euphoria

Is Fuel for Life a good alternative to super strong sweet frags like Joop, whilst also keeping the raspberry note thats in Individuel without it smelling like laundry?

>>13817803
Perhaps you should try Obsession by Calvin Klein.

Euphoria for Men....Never used cologne before....Received this as a gift...Smells so good, I have received many compliments on it...Not too expensive either.

Does l'eau d'Issey smell like air freshener or does air freshener smell like l'eau d'Issey?

>>13818009
Yes.

Is this a fucking joke? Best scent for winter my ass. Smells powdery and shit. Thank God I only got a sample of it but terrible $15 or whatever spend. I got azzaro wanted as well and it smells clean and super nice. Smells like a formal fragrance but can be a versatile one like clubbing or everyday.

>>13816140
Still waiting on my shipment of Areej Le Dore Russian Musk. I’ll be posting my thoughts on the frag when I get it if any anons are interested.

How much cologne is too much?

>>13818117
It was made for Alfa males. If you're a beta male it'll be too strong for you. Azzaro wanted on the other hand was made for beta males. So you're good.

Tomorrow my eastern parfum oils dupes should arrive. I'm excited to test them out and compare to originals. Do you have any experiences with Surrati/Swiss Arabian (or Perfume Parlour when it comes to less niche producers). Any recommendations? It seems that snobs on basenotes/fragrantica didn't discover them fully. I'll laugh if I'll get 90%+ resemblance of originals for 1/20 price.

>>13818131
I made the mistake of telling a normie at work I bought a Tom Ford fragrance and told them I spent 235 dollars on it and they thought I was insane and told a bunch of people so now random people at work come up to me and ask me if I spent 200 bucks on cologne. So anything over 80 bucks is breaking the normie thresh hold.

>>13818138
You probably smell like shit and sweat to convince yourself that you're a real man.

>>13818131
More than 10 is too much unless you're a collector.

>>13818131
If you store them in such conditions, then 1 shelf is already too much. Either keep them in boxes and/or fridge or have up to 20 bottles to rotate over 4-5 years long periods.

>>13818146
>beta cope

>>13818140
>Tom Tuskan Leather
How is it even legal?

>>13818117
youre kidding right?

Obsession by Calvin Klein

Even tigers can’t resist it.

https://www.foxnews.com/world/man-eating-tiger-crushed-by-tractor-while-other-lured-out-by-calvin-klein-cologne-shot-and-killed-in-india

so I finally gave this a real wearing after months of sitting on the shelf. do you guys know other fragrances that play with vanilla or tonka that you've found interesting?

>>13818244
Le Male/Ultramale is the adult version of Eros.

>>13818266
Ahahahahhaha
All 3 are for tweens

Try Pegasus if you're a man that likes vanilla

Been wearing prada black luna rossa the past two days. I think its great but this is the first time I havnt been complimented on my cologne. Wat do?

>>13818140
Tell us about them when they arrive, anon. I might cop some bottles if they're good.

>>13817985
I don't know why you use so many ellipses, you type like a dad. not /fa/. But I got a Calvin Klein sampler recently and this was the best scent by far so I have to agree with you there

>>13816801
You're right. Maybe I'll hit the local appliance store later this weekend.

>>13818146
Is this the same guy from last thread who said real alphas smell like pineapples and vanilla? Fuckin lol @ this Ultra Male/Pineapple Vintage wearing cuck

Anyone have any experience with the Belcam knock offs? Grad student here trying to ball on a budget :^)

recommend me some frags to wear at a Beto O'Rourke victory rally tomorrow.

>>13817065
I'm 5'9" cutting to ottermode but not a twink. Should I get this or allure

>>13818307
as long as you arent choking out your coworkers/classmates on something controversial you're gold. if you like it wear it, thats nearly all that matters

>>13818487
Hey pal, I think you’d like Chanel No 5 or maybe Lolitta Lempricka.

>>13818654
chanel number 5 is literally more masculine than vanilla sweetboi frags like eros or le male

l m a o

100ml bottle of aventus costs like $450 in seoul

lmao are they fucking insane, i bought it for $180 in paris

>>13818678
Yet you still manage to be a huge fag while wearing it what does this say about you?

so glad no one talks about this fragrance anymore. beastly performance in cold weather, lasts up to 12hrs, and its not even an expensive armani prive line frag. you faggots better keep it that way

I'm half-ass when it comes to fragrance. I just use CDG Wonderwood. Where should I go from here?

Bought pic related cause I heard it was a good clone of Gucci PH2. Loved it and thought "man if this is the clone the real thang must be great!" Bought gph2 and was underwhelmed, HM is much nicer.

>>13818784
Of course, forgot pic.

>>13818783
tam dao and hinoki

>>13818783
Wore Wonderwood today, I love it but I wish there was something that smelled more like a lumber yard, but haven't found one yet. Have Tam Dao but I can't stand the drydown.

>>13818793
I would say tam dao edt is pretty lumber yardy. How anybody could not like the dry down astonishes me - most beautiful scent I've found. Maybe try Rocky Mountain Wood or Hinoki.

>>13818786
Ooh yeah, I second that

>>13816140
any suggestions for something "mossy"
green, but not fresh more like marshy and darker
something for fall/winter

sound like a douche, but subtle and mysterious

>>13818820
honestly, fahrenheit.
might not be what you have in mind, but it has a green note, while being dark and warm.

haven't tried encre noir but somebody will probably recommend it.

>>13818266
and Prada Luna Rossa Sport is the adult version of Le Male.

>>13818718
Korea can't use fragrancenet, notino or fragranceX neither, so you generally need to pay retail on Creed.

>>13818793
Gucci PH 1 (discontinued years ago) was really wood carvings wood lumber wood wood. Gucci Guilty Black for men have some of that wood dna too(not that absurd degree).

>>13818820
Try Antaeus if you want dark mysterious mossy herbal. (You can do mental gymnastics about being Antaeus subtle.)

Subtle darkness mysteriousness are really hard to do, even Sauvage can't do that, modern(which means it's not a grandma or old guy smell) fragrance moreso.

Try L'Artisan Voleur de Roses and Domenico Caraceni 1913. (They are all roses.) And Bleu de Chanel, TF Oud Wood, Bvlgari Man Black Cologne, and Dior Fahrenheit.

>>13818536
yes, they're good. polo green, obsession and drakkar noir are even better than their current formulations. avoid polo blue, black and the adg profumo

>>13818767
smells like root beer. gross.

I've been using YSL l'homme ultime and Armani stronger with you mallshit for a while and need some more variety.

What's something that smells kind of warm, earthy, maybe even smokey?

>>13818861
>stronger with you
my cousin wears that and it's smells incredible on him. like a sweeter by the fireplace.

>>13818899
Girls compliment me literally every time I wear it out. It's nice but I'm personally getting burnt out on it.

>>13818846
Which bleu de chanel? There are three of them

>>13818926
BdC is anything but subtle, dark, and mysterious. Scratch that off the list.

>>13818820
If you want a real marsh like and dark scent, but with no subtleness, try CB I Hate Perfume Wild Hunt. You'll smell like forest dirt with mushrooms growing on it. It's fantastic but pretty weird.

>>13819174
125 bones for 10ml? no thanks chief.

I'm new to the fragrance game and have sampled a small number of scents. I liked Dior Homme Intense and Armani Code Profumo. I disliked Lagerfeld Classic and Dior Fahrenheit.

Any suggestions what else I should try?

>>13818820
>>13818829
>haven't tried encre noir but somebody will probably recommend it.
Yes Encre Noir very much has a wet forest feel.

>>13819213
Yeah it's silly expensive, but it's damn near photo realistic.

>>13818443
Sure, they should arrive soon

>>13818767
i have it and grew tired, its too damn sweet

Fragrance noob here - I've been using this off and on whenever I've wanted to smell good, but the bottle is running out and I am interested in learning a bit more about fragrances. Any recommendations of similar and/or complementary bottles in a relatively cheap price range?

>>13818820
eau de cedre layered with encre noire

>>13816140
Why does Francis Kurkdjian look inbred?.

>>13818140
>>13818149
Thats shit is 95% close.
I've used it.

>>13819502
Are you OP? Tested all of them? Write something more, you may save a generation of poor NEETs from smelling cheap

What's your deodorant?

Opinion on this? I had thought that it is a very solid green scent (often compared to GIT), but my girlfriend told me recently that it smells like a cheap generic male perfume. I may be under her impression but indeed the powdery violet note could be perceived as cheap but don't smell anything bad about it. Maybe she just hates green scents.

>>13819783
Solid git clone much better than the armaf, but l dont like git either.

>>13816388
Yikes

Tried this today in Selfridges. It's like a combination of YSL L'Homme and Chanel Platinum Egoiste. Beautiful stuff. My only concern is that the floral accord makes it a little feminine. Otherwise highly recommend it.

I'm thinking about asking my parents for DH parfum as a Christmas gift. What about the Farenheit parfum, is it any good?

>>13819565
I'm not OP.
I've tried their Tuscan leather, Shae Oud and Black Afghano.
Tuscan Leather is very very close but it's in oil form and I absolutely hate applying that thing.
Shae Oud was also great but Black Afghano was meh..

What are some good frag for bank officer

>>13818140
It's OP. Finally my Arabian clones arrived. Gonna live review them for you (how do they smell for first 30 minutes). If you're interested in comparisons with originals, I can deliver over the weekend by taking them to my perfumery.

>Surrati Tuskan Leather (TF Tuscan Leather)
Disappointed in the opening. It smells like wet cardboard mixed with raspberries. However, after few minutes scent is getting more rounded and the leather is more easy to spot. There are some floral notes in the background that I can't distinguish. 6/10 for the opening (but it could be due to my skin chemistry).

>Surrati Kreed (On internet they write that it is Aventus dupe but I believe there are two Creed's dupes by Surratti and this one is GIT)
HOLY SHIT it's perfect green perfume and exactly how I imagined GIT. If the sillage and longevity will be good then it's instant 10/10. Beautiful, rich violets, iris and verbena. It's smells creamy and luxurious.

>Surrati Tom Oudh (TF Oud Wood)
I'm not very familiar with Oud perfumes but this one is very woody and pleasant with some sweet (spicy?) and musky twist. Probably I applied too much and the opening is a bit synthetic. 7/10

>Surrati Black Oudh (Montale Black Aoud)
Very dark and elegant red rose + Oud. Smells very sophisticated and is probably very good to layer with something else as a base perfume. 8/10

>Swiss Arabian Black Afgano (Nasomatto Black Afgano)
Sweat smokey with some resins. There's something cannabis-like about it, but it's not vulgar. 7/10

>Al Haramain White Musk (???)
White flowers, rose and musk. Smells a bit like a bathtube oil. 6/10

All oils are very, very dense. I'm not sure if these are 100% parfum oil as producers claim but definitely it's >50%. I've never seen that dense perfumes. Are these oils worth their prices? Definitely. I'll follow up with a more in depth review once I'll wear each one for a day (and maybe some comparisons with originals) to see how do they behave over longer time span than 30m

Which Bleu is better in terms of longevity and Sillage? I can’t decide which one to pick for winter

>>13819953
Longevity: parfum
Sillage: eau de toilette
Scent: eau de parfum

>>13819944
What does a bank officer do?

>>13819944
Be more precise.

>Cashier
Dior Sauvage

>Quant
Probably Axe/Lynx lol

>Manager
Aventus

>>13819579
unscented

>>13818117
This unironically smells like a woman’s parfume

>>13819579

Weleda rosemary and vetiver

Anyone worth following on Twitter from fragrance world?

>>13820160
Not really, but I like that gif.

>>13819947
Either I'm tired olfactorily already or longevity of Black Oudh is 2-3h on my skin and sillage around 1 feet, which seems to be nothing comparing to Montale's stats. I applied very little, though.

Is Mancera a good house to start a niche frag journey?
Tried Tf Noir and its too strong and herbal for me.
The price is the main thing stopping me from getting samples of niche frags, though I am curious about SMW, TV, Cedrat Boise etc.

>>13820260
Man era has some very nice frags and they’re fairly reasonably priced. Only problem, if you can call it that, is they have a ton of scents. Them and Montale. You may have to sort through quite a few scents until you find one you like.

How is encre noire compared to egoiste platinum? Im looking for second smell for winter

>>13820537
Two completely different scents

Does it also smell for you like dad's perfume?

>>13819239
bump

>>13820597
Go for Dior then. It's a classic.

>>13820597
Just try everything you see?

I'm considering changing my wardrobe to a more preppy style, since I'm in my mid 20's and not getting any younger.
Swapping out hoodies for sweaters, tees for dress shirts and the like.
I'll keep meme pieces like my parka and some joggers and trainers for casual wear round town.
blogpost aside, which scents should I try to go for to match this change in style? I was considering stuff like Herod and Oud Wood in winter, Grey Vetiver or Polo Blue in summer.

>>13820672
see
>>13820614

>>13820597
i dont know enough about those frags to say but look them up on fragrantica. see what notes they have in common. pick a few notes that you liked in addition. use the 'search by notes feature' and bring up fragrances that have similar notes. take note of a few that may be different in composition but the notes are something you would be interested to try

>>13819943
How potent sillage these oils should have from your experience?
I took a shower and tested next one. It is just like with
>>13820205
It has a weak-ass sillage of ~10-20 cm. I'm afraid that I bought some old batch. Since they seem to be quite dense - after few minutes I still can see a glowing, oily trace on my skin where I applied it with a roller. Or maybe I should just go to sleep and get some rest.

>>13820583
It smells like a damp church pew. And it’s my favourite fragrance.

Is there really a noticeable difference between pic related and prada l'homme? I don't wanna buy the intense version if it's similar to prada l'homme which I already have. It's just gonna be a waste of money.

>>13820785
intense has a stronger iris note and honestly smells like Dior Homme intense. I prefer the original cause it's fresher, cleaner and honestly just a great smell. slightly soapy. it's becoming a favorite of mine.

Thoughts on Stronger with You?

>>13821031
It's like the most generic warm and sweet frag, smells nice but so many do it better. Want cheap? The One, HiM, L'Homme Ideal EDP. Wanna spend a little more? Herod will be your best bet, or try Joob for something that goes in a whole new direction.

>>13821131
it's not that generic I'd say. you can definitely get that chestnut note in the mid, which is pretty nice and a bit different. AC Profumo is the most generic sweet dogshit ever

>>13821136
AC?

Thoughts? Just picked up a 3.3 oz bottle.

>>13818784
>>13818785
Happy it worked out for you. In my case I already have and love GPH2 and am considering ordering HiM as an alternative. Can you describe how it smells and compares to GPH2?

>>13821139
Aventus Creed, he means.

>>13820537
egoiste platinum isnt exactly a warming scent for winter.

>>13821153
I'm not great at describing scents but it's much more warm and spicy. GPH2 is lighter and more green with the tea accord. It's also pretty linear. Gph2 is very pleasant and reminds me of a sunny (not too hot) day. HiM is darker and lasts longer, and the less linear with a nice drydown. I only know what the EdT is like and at $30 it's a no-brainer.

>>13818546
Larmes de Sel

Looking for scents similar to commodity moss and radio Bombay.
Also is there a scent that incorporate the smell of fresh tires/rubber? Marijuana but not as dank? And ginko ?

>>13821142
To me smells like another generic "blue" fragrance....which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Dumb reach for sure.

>>13821304
>the smell of fresh tires/rubber
Bulgari Black.

What is 4chans thoughts on this one?

Solid LGBTQ+ list desu

>>13819947
Just tested Creed's GIT and Tom Ford's Oud Wood against Surrati dupes and holy shit. The resemblance is uncanny. I don't know what these Arabs did but they smell ALMOST IDENTICAL. I really can't tell a difference. If I'd only know how to make EdP out of this attars by adding alcohol.

Gayest fragrance aside from Dylan Blue? Bonus if it's something nice for the winter.

>>13822069
Noose, by You Hopefully

>>13818546
Amouage Figment. Because the victory rally was a figment of your imagination.

>>13822075
That was hilarious but I'm not even gay.

What fragrance would he wear?

>>13822334
OG Fahrenheit

>>13822338
probably

>>13820583
Yes, smells money and smells bold. But I think for winter TF IC > TF OW.

>>13818783
Try the encre noire series. Especially A La Extreme

I smelled Fahrenheit today... Pretty meh.
Why does /fa/ like it that much?

>>13822504
/fa/ doesn't like it that much desu. It's just one of the scents that lie at the foundations of the modern olfactory preferences and lots of perfumes can be tracked back to it. It smells pretty meh exactly for the same reason.

>>13822504
to be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Dior Fahrenheit. The scent is extremely avant-garde, and without a solid grasp of theoretical perfumery, most of the notes will go over a typical wearer's head.

>>13819939

Alright, so I'm getting Dior Homme parfum as a Christmas gift and I'll buy myself Farenheit Parfum early december

Bleu de Chanel is almost good, but too generic

Sauvage is Axe tier

Guerlains smell like your granddaddy

CDGs are interesting but off-putting on people

ADG smells like the 90s

Almost every niche I’ve every tried might work as a room spray, but is not attractive on a person

GIT is boring/Irish spring soap

Aventus smells like sports body wash from the grocery store

Tom Fords are fine, but wearing nothing at all usually is better

Every YouTube fragrance reviewer has laughable bad taste with embarrassingly cringey intros/clothing/production/etc


Is it all a meme bros? I feel like I’ve tried everything

>>13822684
Which Bleu De Chanel

>>13822698
EDT appealed to me the most. EDP felt too smooth. Haven’t really worn the Parfum

Whats the consensus on this ?

>>13822742
Smells like floor cleaner.

>>13822684
what niche have you tried? is there any fragrance you actually like or is the whole thing not your cup of tea?

>>13822742
memed by YouTube fragcom. smells like pinesol with whipped cream. original allure Homme sport is the best.

Rumor has it Chanel will soon release a new men’s frag. Not flanker

>>13819873
Good taste, britbong

>>13822765
I’ll wear Bottega Veneta Pour Homme, DS & Durga Freetrapper, and Guerlain Homme Intense on occasion but all of them are still off in some way.

I liked CH Men Prive, but it’s too sickly sweet in the opening, it takes several hours before it’s something I’d wear.

I’d like BDC if it was heavier on the woods and not so blue/generic smelling.

>>13822790
hope its good

>>13822778
Based fellow OG poster, I can tell you like creaaammmy goodness

R8 my work Frags you Fags. Brut is the King btw.

>>13822875
"I learned about /frag/ 2 weeks ago, and I compulsively bought BDC, Eau Sauvage and Aventus"-core

>>13822969
Who ever talks about Eau Sauvage Parfum on here? I'd like to know, guy.

>>13823001
I've seen posts about it a thread or two before this one. Don't worry, everyone has to start somewhere and you bought rather good frags (but you should've explore some niche frags instead of buying Aventus). No need to get naughty.

>>13822875
Azzarro pour Homme intense is severely fucking underrated. perfect fall fragrance.

>>13822684
No hope for you, cynical douchebag.

>>13822875
what line of work you in?

>>13822809
It seems you don't like normie fragrances, like the sort of Jeremy recommends.

Do you tried TF OW, TV, TL, TO, FF, BO etc?
Try Gucci Guilty Absolute, Mercedes-Benz Parfum, Bentley Intense, Penhaligon's Endymion, Penhaligon's As Sawira, and Diptyques.

>>13822809
so you didnt try niche after all?

>>13822684
Try Terre d'Hermes lel. Or Laura Biaggioti Roma Uomo, Creed OS/Montblanc Individuel, Dior Fahrenheit

NYCers, lord and taylor store closing, %15 off fragrances. Are there any brands that control pricing to take advantage of?

Does anyone have any experience with RaxoRock? Specifically the Santa Maria del Fiore?

It's all good. Those are just my work frags btw. What Niche frags do you prefer? I own a couple of normie ones like Amouage and other Creeds but nothing else niche wise. Also that guy talking about ESP was probably me lol. I seem to be the only one into that one.

>>13823200
I'm a peace officer unfortunately.

>>13816182
It reminds me of when my dad used to put it on. Gives me nostalgic vibes. Great cologne.

>>13816182
Reminds me of my dad when he put it on, I got this as a gift from him, and I like putting it on for the nostalgic vibe. I honestly prefer the original variant compared to the other ones.

>>13823291
Thanks senpai

>>13823245
I’ve smelled at minimum 50+ niche fragrances. I’m not gonna list out every one of them. Currently wearing Nicolai - New York Intense and it’s fine but I won’t wear it again.
Twisted Lily (all niche) and Bergdorf Goodman (massive fragrance department) are a short commute for me and I’ve sampled tons of niche from each.

Patchouli Absolu is my favorite TFPB.

$20 what should I get

Recommend me a signature scent based on my aesthetics?

>>13823581
Axe body spray. The little girls near your local HS love it bro

>>13823609
HAGAHGAHAHAGAHAHHA

>>13823609

>>13822334
THIS. Without a doubt.

My whole life is a copy of this movie, trust me, I feel like I have become this character and I am telling you it is this.

>>13823449
That is a surprisingly a pretty good match for that collection lmao
BdC is a bit fuccboi, though. That's the odd man out.

Anybody ever try Dark Rebel by John Varvatos? Can you give me a layman's description of what it smells like and whether or not it's good?

>>13823770
sweet cigarettes with a bit of dirt.

>>13823651
idc what anybody says about it, this is one of the best releases in the last 5 years. yes it's a simple fragrance but it's so damn good. the perfect freshie.

>>13823779
Damn. Is that good? I wear all black so it might fit.

>>13823784
it's nice. the opening is a bit harsh, but it mellows out quickly and it's like a nice sweet leather in the drydown. I like it better than dark rebel rider.

>>13823791
Thanks a lot anon. I think this'll be my scent this winter.

I get this strong vanilla vibe in La Nuit de l'Homme, but it's not listed in the notes.
Is my nose just shit and I mistake it for something else?

>>13823841
Your nose is fine. Fragrance people don't know what the fuck they're talking about 9/10 times.

>>13823625

>>13816140
fendi is my fragrance

>>13821607
pure sex in a bottle desu

>>13823920
Okay I'll go try it out and see how it smells on my skin do you recommend any other for me?

>>13823651
Probably the only one I’d give 10/10. It’s very linear, but it’s so good at what it does. I sometimes just spray it in my room for the fun of it.

>>13823446
Arab oils anon here. There's more of us. Somehow, I'm glad that /frag/ doesn't discuss it more.

>>13824169
Someone said there are random spots across new york where some pajeet/ismail will ask what fragrance you want and make an oil based roll-on for you on the spot. Where is it

Tuscan Leather or Patchouli Absolu.

Which is more versatile? I already have TV and OW from the Private Blend if that matters.

>>13824187
you already bought the two worth wearing

>>13824199
TL>>>>TV

>>13819239
for a newcomer Prada l'Homme might be a decent bet. Also check out YSL La Nuit de l'Homme and LNDL Frozen Cologne

>>13824169
Getting the post 2017 one... But yea I'm glad it's not getting memed on here as well.

>>13824146
Do not spoonfeed the retard unable to use fragrantica or the OP posts

>>13823858
its not fragrance people who failed to pick up on vanilla, its the official note listing that doesnt provide it. i ctrl+f'd vanilla on its fragrantica page and it was mentioned 63 times

Guess I should ask this in the new thread, but favourite Guerlain?

Specifically looking for something that leans more unisex and not that intrigued by the male/modern collection. The collection is dizzying though.

>>13823539
i see. then you've figured out that you just dont like fragrance generally. if youve actually tried hundreds of fragrances and nothing to date has captured your nose its time to putting time into trying

>>13824187
Both are good but will probably offend more than half the people around you

Quick! Do I impulse buy Ultramale?

>>13824398
Vetiver

>>13824505
no

>>13816140
Saturday.

>>13821236
Interesting, thanks for the info.

Niche recs similar to pic related?

blindbought it, it's good but not really my fav A/W scent

>>13822069
Formerly Chuck, by Sneed

>>13824516
Why

What fragrance would match me?

>>13824681
sweet, fruity fragrances are not becoming of men

>>13824683
thats not you. you could at least change the file name to match the one igor posted

>>13824669
Cringe.

>>13824169
>>13824283
How much would you pay for a full bottle of the pre-2017 version of ESP?

Coworker recommended me this for the fall season. In love with the smell. What’s /fa/ thoughts on Burberry London?

>>13824283
I like the new version better tbf Anon.
>>13824732
It's so cheap if you'll order it from internet that you shouldn't overthink if you like it. For this reason lot's of people will hate it here. Personally, I find it very comfy to wear during Christmas time. You know, you and your gf going to a Christmas market in the old town holding each other hands, it smells of ginger and mulled wine around etc.

>>13824732
scent is easily 9-10/10 for me, but the performance is lacking. protip: take some unscented moisturizer and spray once into it to infuse it with the fragrance and slather it on, and then spray on top of it. will last you till the next day.

>>13824763
Yes, but the projection is shit then, right?

>>13824769
not shit but not great either. average at best.

>>13819947
Arab oils anon here. Surrati Black Oudh actually is better than the Montale (it could be due to some reformulation or something). The rose is more tonned and smells richer. However, shit projection of these oils is driving me crazy! I'll order some perfumers alcohol and jojoba and try to make EdP out of these oils. Has anyone tried to do that? Does it really increase projection of pure perfume oils?

>>13824778
are you sure you're not just experiencing olfactory fatigue? I bough a couple of al rehab oils last year and tested them out. I though the scent had disappeared but my folks could smell me five feet away. I think oils are deceptive with their scents. they're probably so concentrated that we go noseblind almost instantly while they're still kicking.

>>13824712
Fragnet had some on their site for around 50. I have three bottles of pre 2017. I know it's a bit much but that's by far my favorite juice.

>>13824796
I wish, I'll ask someone if they can smell anything soon, but I think that I could got fakes from my Amazon seller.

>>13824407
Thanks senpai :(

>>13820437
Its quite good, my recommendations are red tobacco, aoud blue notes, cedrat boise and wave musk

I'm new to this and looking for an everyday fall/winter fragrance.

I sampled a few fragrances and like Dior Homme Intense and Armani Code Profumo best, but they are quite pricey (I'm still a student). Are there cheaper fragrances that smell similar?

>>13824199
I see. I must have good taste then...

>>13824427
That was a concern of mine. I assume TL is the more offensive of the two, but I don’t mind something a little “out there” as a lot of mine are fairly safe fragrances.

Is Ultramale reformulated in a less potent way or is it a meme?

>>13825208
Read sticky or gtfo.

>hey anon I hear you're quite the fragrance connoisseur can you recommend me one to be a signature

What do you say?

>>13825288
>I think that Dior Sauvage would match you best

>>13825272
rude

>>13825288
>hey joe go for Dylan Blue it's the best blue fragrance according to my favourite fragrance reviewer!

>>13825293
That question is asked handful of times in each thread. You can even find answers to that in this thread.

>>13825288
I ask Jamie to bring up one of Jeremy’s videos.

>>13825300
Kek based. Which one in particular?

>>13825299
I'll be kind with you though. Test Lalique Encre Noir and Burberry London. If that's still to pricey for you, ask the Arabian oils anon to recommend you something.

>>13825304
Thanks Anon!

I think I might like Encre Noir a lot. Looking forward to trying it.

Do you think it is too strong to wear in an office setting? I've heard reviewers recommend it for going out only.

>>13825309
Just spray it once and you'll be fine.

Other cheapies for F/W that come to my mind:

Dolce&Gabbana The One for Men,
Bvlgari Man In Black,
Bentley for Men Intense,
Mugler A*Men Pure Havane,
Mugler A*Men Pure Malt,
Molinard Vanille Patchouli Eau de Parfum,
Kiehl's Original Musk

this is one of my absolute favorites. it layers beautifully but by itself is absolutely magical

>>13824796
Oil doesn't project because it is, well, oil and it doesn't evaporate good. Adding a liquid to make it evaporate (perfumers alcohol) absolutely projects it. That's what the ingredients of an actual EDT, EDP etc. are anyway.

Oil will stay longer and smell for longer but only within close proximity.

Add around 3ml of the oil to 30ml alcohol. Or of course 9/10ml o 100nl. You''' have a decent slightly stronger than EDT well projecting scent.

>>13824778
>jojoba

Don't add that.

>>13825476
Thanks, that's useful

>>13825426
Mine too.

R8 the collection

>>13825546
It's shit. Next
