L'HOMME INFINIMENT

Recommend me some fragrances that are give an air of masculinity and unbound by hierarchies/time.

Newfag here
Is adg profumo or bleu de chanel suitable for everyday use? (College). If so which one to choose?

>>13920185

L'HOMME INFINIMENT

anyone into antique perfumes?

should I go for dior sauvage or bleu de chanel for a all around frag that I'll wear in pretty much all occasions? I'm a uni student so value is important to me

>>13920476
Unfortunately neither Chanel nor Dior are commonly available at discounted prices, so for value you're gonna have to look to other brands.
I like Mr. Burberry for a cheap all-arounder that can be found for $25-$35 online. Any of the three varieties (original, Eau de Parfum, Indigo) will do but I think Indigo is the most versatile if you need something that can be worn in warm weather. Also consider Polo Blue Eau de Parfum (not the original Polo Blue) for around $40 on ebay.

>>13920522
Atm I can find the dior for £40 and the chanel for £60

>>13920530
If it's just between those two, Sauvage is fine. I smell it a lot at work but girls like it and it's okay as an everyday scent. It also lasts for a long time and gets noticed.

>>13920534
Should I get EDT or EDP

>>13920537
They're more or less indistinguishable. I own both Sauvages and they dry down the same. EdT lasts just as long and projects better.

>>13920235
most ive dabbled is old old guerlain. i tried apres londee and mitsouko. what i smelled was incredible, unlike anything i've tried before

I've really been wanting to cop a bottle of something iris heavy for work but am struggling to choose between the Dior Homme line or Prada L'homme.
My thoughts were to get either DHE or the intense prada as I could wear the latter for most of the year then switch up with citrus frags for summer.
Can/frag/ help me decide?

Did anyone tried Terre D'Hermes? Does it really have both woody and citrusly smell? I want a similar smell to Adidas Deep Energy but it lasts like shit

To anon from last thread >>13914407
Spicebomb Extreme is heady, warm, spicy, and sweet but thankfully not too sweet. The black pepper in extreme makes it less sharp than the pink pepper does in OG spicebomb. What I get is mostly the spices (pepper, cumin, saffron, cinnamon) overlaying a smooth vanilla base, with a touch of aromatic tobacco. Bourbon is also a listed note, and I get that too, but not in a "boozy" way. Think bourbon if you took all the alcohol out of it and were left with just the earthy, woody spices. Projects like crazy and lasts a long time. I save it for weekends when me and the gf go out. It is too strong for most other "general wear" occasions. Fantastic especially if you live in really cold climates.

>>13920705
yes. people have strong positive and negative reactions to it, i do not know why. it is a simple scent, vetiver and orange

Just blind bought pic related and Habit Rouge. I read tons of reviews already but what should I be expecting? Any tips on the best times to wear them?

>>13920581
Just get the regular Dior Homme

>>13920530
BDC is better. Sauvage has a screechy, metallic twang to it that makes it smell like pennies and laundry detergent. BDC EDP is smooth as balls and classier smelling.

>>13920756
Unwearable dated old men or female smell, in your home

Posting last blind buy. Personally quite like it, surprised by the pineapple-y scent. Thoughts?

>>13920974
I don't think I'm edgy enough to smell that

>>13920974
Really good choice, own it too. But i'm working in the office and can't pull it off there. It's a fragrance for dating or dinner, i prefer CK One, Prada Homme for office.

>>13920974
Edit: I like the berry-praline like scent in the beginning, the scent transferred to a more manly, bitter one later.

>>13920756
I own both. Unfortunately they're both very similar. Heritage has more Citrusy notes. But both very powdery. That gives off the old man smell. I wear Heritage at work. I wear Habit Rouge when I go out to fancy events at night [sometimes]. Nobody's ever told me I smell like an old man. As a matter of fact yesterday at work this lady put her head on my shoulder and said I smelled good. It was weird because I don't know her that well and she's have my age. I'm 26 she's late 40s early 50s kek. I probably reminded her of dad or some shit.

>>13920186
I'd go with ADG profumo.

>>13920476
Sauvage

Is pure tonka any good?
I like coffee

absolute noob here

i liked YSL Le Nuit de l'Homme more than any other perfum i tried on, but reviews on the internet say it has bad performance

is it true?

>>13921423
/frag/ reports that performance in bottles from 3-5 years ago was indeed trash, but more recent bottles have restored much of the original performance. Take that with a grain of salt. I suggest going to Sephora, requesting a sample of La Nuit, and testing it for yourself. Then come back and tell us about your experience.

>>13921427
mkay, will do

do people here hate on YSL out of contrarianism, or is there anything else wrong with it

>>13921466
Nobody here hates it. They just think it performs poorly. I have a bottle myself. It performs okay imo. Get it if you like it. It's a good fragrance and most people here like it.

>>13920756
>>13920960
>>13921132
What about habit rouge dress code?

I need to buy something for myself to go with notino order for my mom to get free mail
safe suggestions? was thinkin L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme
anyways something manly and for the winter i'm 27 and prefer wood, musk and subtle weird citric tones. like some proper kush dank lul

low price and small bottle is a plus cus i probably cant smell in any shop near me

Anyone here any thoughts on Cartier Roadster and A&F First Instinct ?

2 unsolicited compliments within an hour of coming into work.

>>13921549

based on appearance alone, which fashion youtuber would you rather trust?

1, or ...

>>13921592
... 2?

>>13921592
>>13921595

>>13921592
>>13921595
neither
for me it's these thots

>>13921592
Why would I ever trust someone on their appearance alone? That’s a stupid fucking question.

>>13921613
That's a weird thing to say on a board dedicated to fashion

>>13920476
Bleu de chanel is good but smell's really generic, kinda regretting of getting it I got mine 5 years ago and the bottle isn't even finished

>>13921595
obviously the tall handsome and autistic one.

>>13921608
I want to kiss the left one

>>13911830
Just created perfect copies of TF Oud Wood and Molecule 01 for $5.29 and $1.95 respectively, AMA

>>13921690
Interesting. How's the longevity and projection?

>>13921707
Testing longevity. Projection seems to be increased by orders of magnitude but I'll someone whether they can smell the scent to test that

>>13921557
EDT OR EDP?

>>13921626
Not really. Just because someone looks good doesn’t mean they give good advice. Jeremy gets away with a lot of the stuff he does because he’s good looking. He presents certain fragrances as “if you wear this, you’ll get compliments”, but the reason he gets so many compliments is because of the way he looks. Your average schlub isn’t going to have girls telling him how good he smells every day if he wears Aventus or whatever.

If someone routinely gives good advice and has educated opinions, I’ll trust those opinions. If someone says dumb shit all the time, I’m not going to take them at their word just because they’re attractive.

>>13921608
They look like the mathematical average of all NYC girls put in a blender

>>13921721
So you just ordered the oil, and combined them with the ISO e super and alcohol?

>>13921557
Will be my next cop after I use up my YSL and Jil Sander flasks

Imaginary Authors anon back, tried them all and here are first impressions:

>A City on Fire: Opens straight photorealistic charred burning smell. If it stayed like this it would be hard to wear but it settled down to some smoky berries and resinous labdanum while still retaining the smoke. Favourite of the bunch.

>Cape Heartache: There's some pine in the opening but then it goes to sweet sugary strawberry, not for me.

>Falling into the Sea: Pretty straightforward citrusy lemony and a bit floral. Kind of generic but the hint of lychee keeps it interesting. I agree that it smells beachy, but also a bit like lemon cleaner. Going to give this one to the GF.

If you’re in the U.K. PerfumeShop are doing a buy one get one half price, which may or may not be of interest.

>>13921766
Very snice, thanks for that

I blind bought Havana by Aramis and it came in the mail yesterday. I used one spray and within minutes, my entire house smelled like it. I still smell it on my skin 12+ hours later. A shower didn't even take it off. It seems longevity will not be an issue. Just as one anon told me, the tobacco note is there but not too present. Overall, I really like it and I'm glad I saw it recommended here.

>>13921608
They actually asked the ultimate question in that video

w2c fragrance that smells like YSL la nuit de l‘homme, but lasts longer than an hour?

>>13921592
>>13921595
A gay Jew or a Gay autistic German? Neither

>>13921731
EDP

>>13921855
What does it smell like anon? I have JHL and Tuscany and their ok.

>>13921931
How is Fragrance Chad autistic?

>>13921947
https://youtu.be/jOcMMx_ldPI

>>13921958
What would he wear?

I'm going to cop samples of Guerlain Vetiver, Spicebomb and Valentino Uomo since the perfume store that doesn't require a ferry crossing doesn't have any of those houses in stock.
Since I'm getting some, I'm considering getting some samples for my sis, given I got my mum a sample of Flowerbomb and now its her signature scent.
Trouble is my sis has only ever bought celebrity scents like Fame or some candy smelling Britney Spears one.
How do I go about trying to get samples of stuff she might like?

Can't wait for my Dries van Noten by Frederic Malle sample to drop in. Has anyone here tested it?

>>13922014
Go to the fragrance thread and ask for recommendations for a __ year old girl

>>13921947
Jeremy is a well-documented Chadtistic, m8.

>>13921942
It opens like an aromatic fougere to my nose. Reminds me of Drakkar Noir for the first 10 minutes. It then mellows out to a spicy, earthy scent. I pick up cinnamon, citrus, and earthy notes, maybe a bit of leather too. I have to think about it to get the tobacco. It stays mostly the same after 4 hours. It's projecting within a foot 14+ hours later, even after a shower. Lovely stuff. Gonna see how my co-workers like it today.

>>13922070
I don’t think babies should be wearing perfume.

Newfag to fragances, only ever used whatever i get gifted on christmas or my birthday.
First one i copped was pic related, i liked it but it's almost empty, and i was wondering if i should cop it again or try something else?

>>13921228
Anyone?

>>13922122
Get something new for the season la

>>13921228
I tried it and thought it was sickly sweet but my brother liked it. I guess if you don't mind sweeter frags then it's worth a try since it's so cheap but I personally wouldn't recommend it.

>>13922324
Not the anon asking but would you say Rochas Man is a good alternative if Pure Tonka is out of stock?

>>13922339
I haven't tried it but just looking at the profiles it looks like RM should be very similar but sharper at first and a bit creamier with a drydown that smells a bit better than tonka with the patchouli and amber. I would assume its a little better than PT for my tastes but that could really depend on how it develops.

>>13921576
That seems interesting.
Would like some panty dropper tho but might just order that and buy something after trying.

Anyone have tested guerlain ideal edp? I see good reviews about it but see also that it disappears fast and need to be very close to smell it

just started wearing this again. when I first smelt it i wasn't overly impressed, but when worn it has a really nice subtle yet manly smell, i would say a pine/citrus smell. girls regularly comment on it

>>13922041
no, but interested in your review

Cool Water. Y/N?

Just want something cheap for throwing on in the summer. I tend to spend more on cold weather fragrances so don’t mind being cheap in the summer.

>>13922122
I really enjoy the intense version but feel I have to be in the right mood to wear it

Do any scents smell of marzipan?

>>13922070
Ok then.
Recommendations for an 18 year old woman?

>>13921754
No, the oil is already indistinguishable copy of TF. The problem was that it is attar, so an extremely concentrated perfume. The thing with attars is that they last for extremely long (this TF oil was able to survive easily over 48h and 2 showers) but they don't project a lot. The oil particles are heavy and just don't want to fly around much. That's why you trade off longevity for projection by adding alcohol. It makes way lighter mix that still smells like original oil but thanks to alcohol projects way better. I can smell it now easily from my wrist while writing this post. I mixed the attar with perfumers alcohol in ratio 12:88. For Molecule 01 thing was as easy (since it is just Iso E Super + branding) and mixed it with perfumers alcohol in ration 15:85 and got Molecule 01.

>>13921855
Glad that you liked it, that was me. I initially also blind bought it. You're kinda right about tobacco note but that's more or less how tobacco in fragrances smells like. It's rather a smell of uncut tobacco leaves or a good cigar than the tobacco for rolling one's own cigs. I've researched some other cheapies recently, I can post them over the weekend.

>>13922480
what is your style, if you have any?

>>13922594
Another note: you can try to smell Burberry London. It's one of the best known frags widely accepted as having a major tobacco note. The tobacco there smells similar to Havana.

Fuck me, Aqua Amara is salty as shit. I love the citrus in it, but my god the salt.

>>13922590
Oh god you're that fucking Arab oil Oud Wood guy. Fuck off already.

>>13922608
Of all the tobacco frags out there London has the WORST tobacco. It's barely there and smells like ass.

Need suggestions on an ozonic scent possibly with grass green, maybe w/ some white floral or aldehyde notes. Is it possible to get something that is clean (but not very soapy) and has good longevity?

>>13922770
Zoologist Dragonfly maybe

>>13922734
Mad that your TF bottles are worth nothing but marketing? I won't ever understand people who deliberately want to overpay for something that it's not worth the value. PS the Oud they use is 100% and you can buy it for pennies from Givaudan.

>>13922817
100% synthetic*

>>13922817
Is there anyone more insufferable than the “thrifty” “you know, you can save a bunch of money by just ordering 17 different things from separate websites, then spending hours assembling it yourself” assholes?

We get it. You’re poor. Being smug about it won’t change the fact that you’re eating hot dog ramen every day.

>>13922788
Thanks anon, looks very promising. Need to find a sample now

>>13922834
Buddy, I make easily way more than your daddy does. But don't see a point of wasting money left and right. Also if one can learn how things work, then why not. I ordered plenty of essential oils in the last order and will start making my own perfumes. We're all here to learn something, so just be snice.

>>13922666
Have you tried the og aqua? It's one of the best aquatics imo. It's salty and it has this seaweed vibe.

>>13922884
A thrifty man is a wealthy man, I cant blame you for spending as little as possible on literal smell juice

>>13922473
Yeah, i noticed that it's a little subtle, especially if i'm wearing a lot of layers. And unless they hug me, others don't notice it.

>>13922884
Sorry, I don’t read comments from people who make less than 150k. If you’d like, you can @ my secretary and she’ll give me the jist of it.

>>13923100
>he tried hard to think of some unattainable in his opinion salary
>150k
>probably meant dollars
Buddy, i was getting 150k starting offers in my grad school, you're getting ridiculous. Hate to make you realize that throwing hundreds on stuff that's worth <$10 is typical lower-middle class thing and the reason you people stay poor for your whole life. But to be honest I wouldn't bother with all that oils thing if frags weren't my hobby, it takes some time after all.

Lol everyone on /fa/ sells drugs and spends the money they make buying perfume and clothes, because what else can you buy with cash that the IRS can't see in an audit? Get with the times gramps, 150k working a literal dead end day job to pay for your BMW while Chad /fa/ggots spend all day shitposting and buying NICHE FRAGRANCES. Your life is one big COPE

What are the best sources for Fahrenheit, Sauvage, Cool Water, Individuel oil dupes?

>>13923195

>>13923200
I never was interested in them, but Surrati has Fahrenheit, Sauvage and Davidoff in their catalogue

friendly reminder to never buy expensive fragrances on offerup or even ebay for that matter. people buy authentic empty bottles and fill them with knock off juice as fucked up and sinister as that sounds, its true

Wanting to test out Arabian oils, what's a good few suggestions? Not wanting clones of western frags, I wanna smell something original and exotic.

>>13920705
It does smell woody and very strongly of bitter orange.
Be sure not to blind buy it.
Also, you'll miss the musk and bergamot, don't expect it to smell similar

>>13920705
It's not citrus in the conventional sense. You get it in the opening but then it dries down to a very strong vetiver with a deep soil accord with rotting orange. It's not as bad as it sound, but don't go thinking this is freshly citrus. It's really not. It's hard to describe and it's very original, but I suggest you smell it yourself and let it develop on your skin.

>>13922122
My little brother wears this shit, it is absolutely acrid to my nose and representative of the direction of modern Gucci

>>13923553
They've since came out with Absolute which is an amazing leather/vetiver. I hope Alberto Morillas continues to test the designer market with more of these daring scents.

>>13923553
Protip: it reenacts Gucci pour homme I faithfully, which is 'discontinued vintage gem' most frag afficianados praises.

That would be wonderful, thank you.

I cant get a read on royal oud. first couple times it seemed nearly gourmand sweet and it masked the wood. Third time its got more of that dry cedar I'm looking for and less sweetness. Why does this happen?

could someone recommend me a frangrance that fits all the criteria?

winter/fall use
6+ hour longevity
mixes well with sweat
not too pricey
unoffensive
isn't amber/tabacco shit (finishing up D&G the one)

Its about time for me to get a new bottle of Tam Dao. I've been very happy with the EDT and have preferred it over the EDP the couple of times I tried them side by side... but something is telling me to try a bottle of the EDP.

I love the cedar in the EDT and it seems to perform better, but most people seem to prefer the EDP, maybe I'm missing something. Also diptyques parfum bottles are way more aesthetic.

Anyone tried Yohji's I Am Not Going to Disturb You? Pour Homme or Femme, either one.

Looking for a Citrus fragrance
Intensa or which of the Parma family will do best?

>>13923891

dior homme intense is great tho.

Anyone else a little hyped to try Jeremy's fragrance?

>>13924035
no.

its gonna smell like a major in PR & marketing.

>>13921690
give me your recipe/

please

>>13924025

Not really high financial status. The patek was a wedding present. and I live in London and don't own a car

Evryone here wears either creed or tom ford or sauvage. I got into fragrances a year ago so I also have these but I think they don't smell as good as the first 5

I like tobacco, iris and rose, what else is there better with those notes.

>>13924009
Jesus, that's better than I get from the real Oud Wood

>>13923952

>>13924046

Thanks

>>13924179
Thanks, I forgot about Nautica Voyage. That’s much cheaper. I’ve not heard of Polo Green but Fragrantica says it’s a fall/winter scent...

New MDCI when?????

>>13923723
Everything else he’s tried has. Releasing a Kickstarter to fund what will no doubt be an overpriced designer-esque ambroxan bomb that costs 160.00 days before Christmas doesn’t seem to be the best business plan.

>>13924424
But I wrote everything mate above

what smells similar to YSL but lasts longer than 15 minutes?

I'm considering to get CDG Incense:Kyoto

Is it okay for a business casual environment?

>>13923952
is the dior homme as good as people here say it is?

What's the consensus on Kouros? I smelled it the other day and the opening is definitely urinal cake. Without a doubt. The dry down is nice but... boring kinda. It smells sexy but it reminds me too much of Kiehl's Original Musk.

>>13924858
Literally nothing. YSL L’Homme is the endgame of fragrances. You need nothing more and nothing less. It’s perfect as it is. One day the FragComm will realize this.

>>13924926
Motherfucker, L’homme isn’t even YSL’s best scent. Tuxedo blows it out of the water.

>>13924858
royal oud

>>13924905
what do you mean with urinal cake, it just smells of piss?

>>13925048
It smells like an overly floral urinal cake that's activated when pissed on. Not really a urinal vibe, but that skanky, hot public restroom smell. It's hard to describe but if you've been to enough truckstop restrooms you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. It's undeniable.

>>13924926
i do love it but holy shit it literally does not last at all, like not even an hour

How good are their frags? I see them a lot but I just ignore it. What's their best one?

I hope the frag ends up being a fucking hit. I mean a serious fucking hit in all aspects. Longevity, projection, sillage, smell the whole ball of wax and those who got the first batch hold on to them and sell them for thousands 10 years from now after multiple reformulations and Jeremy becomes a fucking fashion icon who speaks tenderly about his #FRAGRANCEARMY and how those who believed in him early in his YouTube career made him who he's become. And I hope everybody who ever said an unkind word about him or his fragrance are the ones going into debt just to purchase a decant of his first batch fragrance from eBay. I really hope this happens.

>>13925308
SO clear he paid those roasties lmao


GREAT LADIES REACTION GUYS

>>13925308

>#fragrancepiramidesheme

>>13925308
So... he wants us to pay to preorder for the privilege of getting a shittier bottle than his fragrance will normally come in?

Cool.

>>13925318
>limited bottles of the first batch available
>preorder starting in 7 days
>sold out
pick one

>>13925421
M8, Jeremy has no idea what he’s doing. He just says words he thinks real business guys say. Hell, he rips half his words and mannerisms straight from Trump. Look how he talks about his fragrance. I have the best perfumer. The best brand name. This I can promise you. It’s the best perfume in the world.

>>13925437
You're a retard and we went over this like 10 threads ago.

>>13925475
And yet what I’m saying makes perfect sense and is consistent with what Jeremy said in the video.

But sure, I’m stupid and Jeremy’s totally on top of it.

I'm tempted on buying pic related. Thoughts?

>>13925688
Pretty bottle. Im curious as well, Im a sucker for realistic wood bombs.

>>13925514
trump comparison aside, he actually seems to have a grip on marketing on this one. he is already exploiting the batch meme, everyone with a "batch 0" bottle is inevitably going to say its the best. then theres the tiered rollout, which is how to do things these days (just look at crypto). in spite of this seeming competence, i can't help but see jeremy as having floundered in all his vanity projects. fragrance is probably his most realistic shot at having something stable

>>13925389
on a scale of 1-10, how gaudy will his bottle be?

>>13925742
I just don’t believe a lot of Jeremy’s claims. I very much doubt he rejected like 40 versions of the scent, or that he even had much input in its design. He only announced this whole project this year, didn’t he? And for sure he only had Morillas officially attached for like 6 months. That doesn’t seem like a ton of time to fastidiously craft the world’s greatest fragrance.

More likely, he just told Morillas to just crank out something sexy like L’homme or whatever, said “good enough”, then slapped his name on it.

The whole timeline seems off.

>>13925757
Like a 13.

>>13925742
Crypto isn’t exactly the best example of a stable business model...

I picked up a sample of this, put some on, it just smelled kind of sweet. A half hour later or so and the smell really came out. Who actually wants to smell like this? It actually smells like dirty hippy. Well done.

>>13925963
lol, if you really think it smells like bud, you're a virgin who claims to blaze up but hasn't actually done so. this smells like straight up sweet patchouli and it isn't even dirty to boot.

>>13926017
>hippie
>patchouli
Pick two

>>13926054
Patchouli can be sweet and not at all dirty like the fucking oil those communists fucks soaked themselves in. Music Festival is not dirty at all and if anything way too sweet. I smell nothing in this fragrance that would suggest a dirty person.

>>13926054
Hippies wear cheap patchouli oil from head shops. They also don’t bathe. That’s why they smell fucking awful. Unwashed ass, nasty, rank hair, incense and weed smoke, and cheap patchouli.

Disgusting “people”.

>>13925811
exactly my thoughts

>>13924905
don't know how people consistently rate it in their top 5. that shit stinks. I couldn't imagine how a vintage formulation would smell. the current one smells like shit.

is DHI really all it's hyped up to be? I'm so tempted to blind buy it as a christmas gift to myself

>>13926591

I've never read a bad word about it here

>>13924905
It's my favorite and I really love the dry down, but I get why some people don't like it. Although I reckon a lot of that comes from overspraying... It's pretty potent for an EDT. I usually go with 1-2 sprays tops. 3 is already pushing it.

>>13922014

List of fragrances with great, clean reputations that I considered buying while reading reviews that I hated after smelling them

Dior Homme
Prada l'Homme
Lalique Encre Noire

Montale Dark Aoud
MpG Route du Vetiver
POLO green
Aramis Aramis
Hermes Terre d'Hermes
Gucci pour homme I

Fragrance I was guiled into buying them when I was young, but evidently stinky

Dunhill Men(really old)

Vintage mitsouko and their vintage guerlain ilk

>>13925717
I finally went and bought it, I like it a lot. It was between this one and terre d’hermes, but I feel loewe’s easier to wear on a daily basis

>>13926591
>>13926627
It's sweet and feminine and hard to pull off

>>13923952
If you're in Bucharest, meet me

should i buy this one ? i'm an absolute newbie and i've just been crawling around the internet for infos
i'm your average shy /fa/ /lit/ /mu/ college fag, i'm not looking for anything too powerful or masculine which wouldn't be adequate for me at all

>>13926591
Although I’d prefer this planet if air smelled of DHI, it’s a really difficult one to wear. It’s not quite casual, not quite formal. I adore the smell so much, but honestly I have no idea when to wear it.

Absolutely do not blind buy. Personally it’s all about the dry down for me. Beautiful.

>>13926713
>hating Prada L'Homme

Might buy AdP Colonia, but I’m worried people will think I’m actually a 90 year old who had great success in the 50s.

>>13926979
buy AdP Pura instead, it's less boomer

>>13926713

I'm so sorry for your nose anon

>>13927010
hating terre d'hermes is normal. trash fragrance. smells like orange peel in a disgusting ashtray. not even a patrician taste frag

Any recommendations for a fella who appreciates the freshness of Issey Miyake? I’m not to much of a musky, woodsy person.

I’ve been wearing Issey for probably a decade so I wouldn’t mind moving on to something a bit different..

>>13926703
Would the extrait be appropriate for a man?

Is BDC Parfum the best of the three if I hated the incense in EDP and also prefer the ginger of YSL L'homme over the ginger and citrus of EDT?
Seems like a lot of money to splash out on a designer frag to me...

>>13927098
Best? Probably. That said, it is 100% not worth that price.

Can OP put something about the 3 types of BDC in the info next thread so we can avoid being asked "what version of BDC do I buy? XD" a hundred times every thread?

>>13927145
all three are lame and get mogged by Sauvage in every situation

>>13927095
yes and even more so than the regular edp

I want to buy one more Private Blend to go with TV and OW. I’m torn between TL and NdN. Any suggestions? I think I may need more time with NdN because that initial blast of rose doesn’t suit me (it’s too feminine) but I love the drydown.

>>13927162
TL

phthalates in synthetic fragrance are hormone disruptors. try essential oils.

>>13927166
What makes you say that? I’d just like to know more.

>>13926937
Go to your local stores and try some stuff

>>13927175
If I wanted to go to stores and try stuff I wouldn't be on here you stupid fuck.

>>13927177
And if you wanted help, you wouldn’t call people offering legitimate advice stupid fucks.

>>13927167
where to find Sauvage or Fahrenheit essential oil?

>>13925344
It's not going to happen.

>>13927175
>>13927177
>>13927204
im the guy who asked for advices and definitly not the guy who answered you
i can't go to any store because i'm very busy right now and to put it bluntly i would be very very uncomfortable doing that

Soon I'll be done with the samples I use now and again for work and to be fair I don't think I'd buy a full bottle of any of them.
VPH comes close because it is nice and light and fresh, but it doesn't last long. I'd buy a bottle of Mugler cologne but its really just literally too soapy for me.
So I've boiled my choices down to Polo Blue or AHS and I really can't decide. Any input is appreciated!

>>13927264
the thot in his video said its just citrus with a woody punch

>>13927279
Here's the short (or long) anon:

1. Take what the internet says about a fragrance with a grain of salt. It's all about your nose, trust it.
2. For your stereotype (fa/lit/mu) I would say no, this isn't suitable. I've tried Narciso for Him and not this flanker, but it's just a generic widely available frag. But with that said, I think the whole "fragrance for personality" advice is bullshit, if your nose likes it - then that's your best measure
3. The best way to see what you like is to go out and smell. For generic fragrances like this, that means going to the mall (sorry). It's not recommended to blind buy a full bottle straight away. If you do not want to go in person, tons of sites offer sample packs - check out the links in the OP. I would add that maybe you should check out indiescents too.

>>13927279
>i would be very very uncomfortable doing that
Then why wear or do anything that draws attention to yourself if you are unwilling to deal with your social anxiety? Best just sit in a dark room and not bother others if thats your mindset.

>>13927324

much thanks for the advices, i'll definitly check out the samples and trust my nose

>>13927363
i am overcoming it step by step but this kind of stuff is still too much for me, but i'll try bringing some friends along, that's the only way i can do this kind of stuff right now

>>13921690
So I went to a Christmas shopping this Saturday with a testing strip sprayed with my copy of TFOW. I told a girl at Tom Ford's stand that one of them is an old batch of TW and the other is newer one from their stand and asked for a help to tell me which she preferred. She wasn't able to distinguish them. Had a good giggle

>>13923638
This is what I've found, hopefully someone will find this useful. All of them were widely recommended on fragrantica and basenotes, some are very interesting. In my opinon /frag/ should dig a little deeper into Lalique house than Encre Noire. Cartier and Jacques Bogart houses are also worth some research (the latter has crazy longevity and projection and most of smells are 80s powerhouse'y, so not for everyone). As last time I attached price per ml, but this time preceded by olfactory group and main accords all divided by semicolons.

Geoffrey Beene Grey Flannel (oriental woody; woody; $0.10)
Jacques Bogart One Man Show (chypre; woody, aromatic; $0.12)
Jaguar Jaguar Performance (woody spicy; fresh spicy, aromatic, woody; $0.13)
Jacques Bogart Silver Scent Pure (citrus aromatic; citrus, fresh spicy, aromatic; $0.16)
Emanuel Ungaro Ungaro pour L'Homme III (aromatic green; aromatic, woody, fresh spicy; $0.17)
Vera Wang Vera Wang for Men (woody spicy; citrus, fresh spicy; $0.22)
Lalique Hommage a L'Homme (woody spicy; powdery, fresh spicy, ozonic; $0.22)
Oscar de la Renta Oscar for Men (woody spicy; fresh spicy; $0.24)
Adnan B. Ambre Noir (oriental; balsamic, amber, aromatic; $0.26)
Lalique Hommage a l'homme Voyageur (oriental woody; woody, earthy; $0.27)
Lalique L'Insoumis (woody aromatic; fresh spicy, woody, aromatic; $0.28)
Swiss Arabian Noora (oriental floral; honey, warm spicy; $0.36)
Cartier Declaration (woody floral musk; fresh spicy, aromatic, woody, citrus; $0.38)
Cartier Declaration d'Un Soir (woody floral musk; fresh spicy, rose; $0.40; manly rose scent)
L'Erbolario Meharées (oriental spicy; woody, warm spicy, cinnamon; $0.45)
Al Haramain Perfumes Mashkoor (oriental floral; floral, almond; perfume oil)

Something like Kouros but weirder?

>>13927279
Then wait until your less busy, bite the bullet, and go do it. It’s the only way. Scent is very personal, something I love, you may hate. No other person can tell you what you’ll like. We can give basic recommendations based on other scents you like, but even then, there’s a decent chance you’ll get something you don’t like.

If you want to get into fragrances, you need to go test them. Simple as.

>>13927657
Alan Cumming or Kublai Khan

>>13927363
Maybe he just likes smelling good. I have a few frags that preform like dogshit and wear close to the skin but wear when reading or doing things around the house because I like the smell for myself. Not necessarily to elicit reactions from others.

>>13927657
Arquiste - El

Tom Ford: Ombré Leather

I really like this scent, a lot. But only after the drydown. When I first spray it, it just smells obnoxious and continues to be so for several hours. But it is so crazy long lived that I can smell it on my scarf for days after and then I love the scent. Can anyone recommend a fragrance that is similar but doesn't have the "basically 100% leather" opening?

>>13928036
I bought myself this a few weeks ago as an early Christmas present and I absolutely love it. Maybe Tuscan Leather? it's a bit sweeter but I prefer the skankiness of ombré better.

Can I get a rec for a mysterious, feminine scent? Something with peculiar notes which stimulate interest.

pls giv scent for a girl trapped in a mans body to smell the most like a beautiful girl that will also make other girls want to kiss her

There's no pussy dry within a 50 mile radius when Chad uses Joop fucking Homme. That sweet cinnamon bomb is all he needs to pummel your mother's swampwomb into the next dimension.

Picked up a bottle of Bond No 9 Layfayette St for myself and a Scent of Peace candle for my mom for xmas. The rep threw in an entire bottle of Hamptons with it and a lot of freebies to go with it. Did I do good?

Bondfag here. Buy all future bottles online and save yourself money. Though you did well to score a free bottle. I only buy Bond at retail when they have their buy one get one sales and there's something new I want and can't get at the discounters. Otherwise it's fragnet for me with their $125 bottles from Bond's back catalog.

Are there any chad frags in the niche realm? I'm talking about niche equivalents of 1 Million or Invictus that young women love but less common so I won't smell like everyone else in the club?

Yes that one smells great as well. I find it much smoother and a little less spicy than either of the Spicebombs. And whereas Spicebomb edt has a sweetness that reminds me of cinnamon bubblegum, 1899 makes me imagine Coca-Cola with added spices (in a good way).
