Thanks for starting a new thread, didn't want to post this in the old one as it was on it's last legs.

Anyone here know of any good “natural fragrances"? I'm looking for something with no synthetic chemicals in it. Im male and I have pic related which I use as a daily wear and it's a very natural formula with just a couple ingredients. Thanks in advance for any help.

>>14617666
Unless you’re buying some weird hippie shit or straight essential oils, basically everything will have some synthetic ingredients. That said, Lush makes fragrances with mostly natural ingredients, using only a few “safe synthetics”, and actually have some pretty interesting scents. I like Karma and Breath of God, personally.

>>14617666
Is that what the l'occitane SA told you? All modern perfumery(i.e., since the early-mid 20th century, even moreso now) is largely synthetic. Just wear what smells good, and natural to you

>>14617697
>>14617706
Well it only has these ingredients: alcohol, aqua/water, parfum/fragrance, juniperus oxycedrus wood oil, limonene, alpha-isomethyl, ionone, coumarin, linalool, citral, geraniol. All my other colognes have a lot more synthetic chemicals. I know a lot of the chemicals in cologne today are added to preserve duration and other factors. I guess i'm just trying to escape the chemical scent they give off. I have a sensitive nose. Ill look into Karma and Breath of God anon, thanks for the recs.

>>14617753
M8, almost all those things are synthetic. Plus, the “parfum/fragrance” is probably a bunch of synthetics as well.

>>14617793
What do you consider to be synthetic? Maybe i'm the one using it wrong. But i'm saying stuff like essential oils and naturally derives fragrances are fine. Like limonene, its just derived from citrus fruits for fragrance, flavoring, and medicinal properties.

>>14617793
Your right though, i'm sure parfum/fragrance is something syntehtic, pretty vague. But i'm just trying to keep them on the low end in my colognes. I have a sensitive nose + I generally like to use more "natural" alternatives to everything.

>>14617802
Well, like I said, then, look into Lush. Other than that, I’d just be very careful about sampling things if you have a sensitive nose, don’t blind buy, but don’t worry too much about synthetics. If a fragrance smells good to you, wear it.

I don't like much attention is there any frags that smells great but doesn't get you noticed? I was thinking of going with luna rossa carbon

>>14617753
Ingredients list is not a good way to determine the composition of a fragrance. Its basically what is required to be listed(e.g. geraniol as it is an irritant and restricted in quantity by ifra). "Parfum" covers the majority of what's actually in the fragrance. In regards to non-chemical smelling fragrances, I would recommend you try some Guerlains such as vetiver and heritage. In general a lot of modern designer stuff will be more blatant with their use of aromachems.

>>14617820
Mugler cologne

honest thoughts on fahrenheit?
might buy it for my dad for christmas

Excellent video

Wafts from the Loft is the best youtube frag channel

Getting into the 60s here and I wore Lonestar Memories today. This is one I know I will buy another bottle of after this one is gone.

Ordered some sample packs this weekend. About 8 Chanel exclusifs, a bunch discontinued or bell jar exclusive Lutens, can't wait for those shits to get here.

There is only one fragrance and its name is Eros. Civets need not apply.

>>14617831
Get him Kouros if you want to give him an 80's frag

>>14617956

>>14617956
Too synthetic

Post your collections.

>>14617985
Redpill me on Bel Ami Vetiver

Is it worth blind buying if I'm a huge vintage fan?

>>14617666
Aesop fragrances. Try Hwyl for example. Beware tho, people with allergies might hate you.

>>14617956
Shut up pajeet

>>14617987
That is the original Bel Ami. It smells absolutely amazing but if you are a fan of vintages the performance will be a let down for you. This modern version is more of a second skin type of fragrance. Not horrible but not great performance.

>>14617994
Just civetbomb him when he posts.

>>14617961
noted

Top 3 autumn/winter frags?

>>14617985
Eros, Eros, Cool Water, Burberry London, and Eros. Waiting for the trees to turn color to wear the snice juice.

>>14618010

>>14617628
I'm a huge faggot who works minimum wage in a gas station, would it be off brand for me to wear fragrance at work?

Also, is gold bar one million and dior sauvage a meme ?

>>14617996
>t. Virgin incel

>>14618060

>>14618060
T. Poo in the loo

I know alot of people hate this frag and say it has trash logevity/performance but i like it alot and it lasts at least 5+ for me. what think?

>>14618144
If you like it, wear it.

>>14617827
>In general a lot of modern designer stuff will be more blatant with their use of aromachems.
Definitely true, all the modern brand name ones are pumped full of them.

>>14617990
Going to put it on my list to check out, much thanks!

>>14618053
wear whatever the fuck you want. i work a shit job but i smell great.

Guys is tobacco frags really smells good or it's just a meme? Thinking about trying Burberry

>>14618053
Would be a waste. I assume you have to stick to some sort of dress code at work, so it's not like you can be truly effay there, so might as well just go fragless. Not to mention wasting juice and money.

>>14618255
M8, what does “being effay” have to do with the frag you wear? How would it be a waste? I wear Creed, Amouage, Roja, whatever in jeans and a t shirt or even sweatpants sometimes when I’m just popping around the corner to buy something. It literally doesn’t matter in the least.

>>14618251
>Guys is tobacco frags really smells good or it's just a meme?
Yes. they're great
>Burberry
London is not a typical tobacco fragrance though. It reminds me more of berries than tobacco

What's with the sudden influx of spics and pajeets forcing Eros?

>>14618351
Yeah, I'm also wondering about it. In Europe 1 Million and Eros are literally the epitomes of Indian/Arab wannabe fuccbois complementing drop crotch skinny jeans, fake gucci belts and some snapback look. You can find either at TKMaxx among Lamborghini and Calvin Klein fragrances.

>>14617847
HOHHHHHHHHHH

>>14617956
smells like apple, mint and vanilla :+)

I fucking love the smell of this ngl

>>14618053
Fahrenheit is your best option

>>14617847
>>14618523
Based and hohhhhhpilled. This is literally the only frag-related yt channel I follow. They're top lads

My rotation:

Clean: Dior Homme Cologne
Dumb-reach : Bleu De Chanel (edp)
All-around but a bit more upscale: Aventus
Night time: Tom Ford Noir Extreme
Comfy gentlemen scent: Tom Ford Oud Wood
Guilty pleasure: Dior Fahrenheit

>>14618533
>Still absolutely no difference in the bottle between EDT,EDP and EP
Come on,Dior...Get your shit together

Anything that smells as good as this but nothing like it?

>>14618349
not him but what would you recommend as a typical tobacco fragrance?

>>14618376
And TKMaxx is for poor people, so stay far away

>>14618659
Wtf is this bottle clothing??
>>14618681
Chergui, Naxos, TFTV, TFTO, Havana, Herod

>>14618697
yeah idk either

>>14618695
>>14618376
>the epitomes of Indian/Arab wannabe fuccbois
This. The other type are these divorced 50yo daddies who go to TKMaxx for bargains and try hard to dress like mid 20s-30s guys

>>14618695
>>14618711
I get what you mean but I bought something from TK Maxx for the first time ever last week and it's breddy decent, paid £20 for a £60 Jack Willis shirt. If you look hard enough you might find something alright for cheap in there

>>14618726
Sure mate but you’re probs aware who’s the typical tkmaxx goer.

>>14618812
this but unironically
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfzrQTTF_18

Made some memeboards for an anon in the thread about this stuff >>14618612 and he said to post them here, let me know if you guys have any suggestions but otherwise enjoy the free OC

And here's the other one. The boat took a bit of time to edit to look not shit, looks a bit odd with the border and the words not having it but it's even worse without one (actually i'm gonna try this again)

>>14618265
I like your enthusiasm.

>>14618533
Boutta try it out for myself.

Could be better but eh

Anyone want to direct me to where I can get a Diptyque Tamo Dao sample?

Hey fragbois, how good is Pure Havane for winters?

>>14619118
Not bad, but if you have the budget for it, there are quite a few similar but strictly better niche fragrances you could get instead. Tobacco Vanille, Herod, Chergui, Back to Black, etc.

If you don’t want to spend much, PH is fine.

>>14618555
Why would Fahrenheit be a guilty pleasure? It’s really good.

Is Cedrat Boise a feminin frag? I'm getting a great discount and was wondering if I should cop?

>>14619151
Back to Black is p damn solid. Thanks.

Habit Rouge EdP or EdT?

>>14617847
Nice one. I wonder if perfume enthusiasts know how lucky they are at the chance to talk with actual perfumers, there's so much to learn when they're giving you inside knowledge.
>perfumers use accords to create notes
I'm no musician and my head is hurting already

>>14619118
If you like Pure Havane try Diptyque Volutes. It's like a more refined, natural, grown up version of PH.

Best wood fragrance? More towards niche, lumberyard, wet forest or dry cabin too.

Too many woody ones come with xmas spices or vanilla/gourmand imo :.(

im using Tous man.
Thinking about buying a Chanel Bleu, lil bit expensive tho, what do ya think?

>>14619151
Anything out there a good replacement for Pure Malt? I tried it today and I loved the opening but the longevity was shit.

>>14618555
Do you honestly use Oud Wood just like that?

>>14619445
Tam Dao EdT
Tam Dao EdP
Molecule 01
Molecule 04

>>14618265
if you're only wearing it for you and not really caring how others perceive you then I can 100% get behind that. Otherwise, I treat fragrances like any accessory you put on. This means I make sure it matches the vibe I want to put to make sure it is consistent with the image that I want to be projecting to others.

Can I wear Burberry London yet?

Should I try out any of the Dunhill Icon series? Racing looks like a nice fresh scent for year round wear.
But I see it's similar to Montblanc Legend Spirit, which I can find cheaper...

>>14619656
depends on where you live anon

>>14619656
Wait until the leaves start changing color

Glasgow Scotland
It's getting darker a little bit earlier now and the weather is wet as usual but the trees are still green and there's a bit of sunshine from time to time. I didn't need a jacket walking around town today until it rained

I wonder what Glasgow For Men would smell like

>>14617847
That's so great. Dan and Joy are based af. Let's put this video to the sticky in the next thread. Based catposter?

>>14619723
deep fried mars bars, heroin and alcohol

>>14619530
Not that I know of. Malt/whiskey seems to be a relatively uncommon note.

>>14619638
Fair enough. Different approaches I guess.

Could I please get a legitness check on this bottle of Chanel Allure Homme?

>>14619972
Looks fine to me. You have an older bottle there. Current ones don't have Chanel printed on the front anymore.

>>14619991
Him here. It has the plain bronze cap as well, which would suggest an older bottle. However the batch code is for 2018, but Chanel codes are fucky aren’t they?

>>14619998
Most batch codes repeat every 10 years so it's probably 2008.

splurged on this. SO fucking good.

>>14620074
Nice. You on vacation somewhere?

>>14620110
business trip to sri lanka and the maldives. all expenses paid, bless up

>>14620151
next time, i enjoyed the regular noir too much to pass on the opportunity for this.

>>14620154
i would but sri lankan bitches are so ugly

>>14620335
gonna peruse through some old threads for some nice angry civets then

>>14620359
GOOGLE HAS LOTS OF GOOD CIVETS. CONSIDER PURCHASING SOME.

>>14619972
how is this? i've heard is really good and one of chanel's most underrated frags.

>>14620359
Here you go.

>>14620366
For me it was love at first sniff. You can tell it’s from a different era but it’s a classic. If you’re looking for any sort of fall scent like Boss Bottled or even One Million, try Allure first. Intimate projection but the longevity is solid.

>>14617831
It genuinely great and is classic but not outdated. Uber masculine even with a dry down that smells clean and floral to me.

That said, gifting fragrance is usually not advised, because tastes are personal

>>14620373

>>14619445
Yeah, tam dao is pretty much goat.
CDG Hinoki is great but a little more of a novelty/personal fragrance imo.
Rocky mountain wood is a good, cheaper option with a nice floral touch.
CDG Wonderwood is 'spicy,' but its clean, sharp pepper, not xmas spicy.
Chanel Sycomore isnt lumberyard woody, but is a great, dry vetiver that reminds me of a pine forest on a sunny, 100 degree day.
TF oud wood probably isnt what you are looking for because its quite spicy, but definitely reminds me of a wet, fallen log. In the best possible way.

Try those and you will definitely find what you are looking for.

t. someone who pretty much only likes woody fragrances.

Bought a bottle of Dior's Leather Oud and Oud Ispahan and a 75ml of Diptyque's Oud Palao. How did I do?

>>14619072
What seller?

>>14620581
M8, the new Ombré Leather is better than the original.

>>14620373
But das a honey badger nigga

>>14620641
Nope. Common Palm Civet.

>>14620074
I hate that to sample tom ford over here you need to ask for them

>>14620588
How old is he? If he's older than 13 then you dun goof'd. Should have gotten him Cool Water or some other cheapo.

>>14619176
Nope, it's hailed as a compliment getter with the women

These guys have opened a store near me, any recommendations? I haven't been in their store but I looked at their site and everything is expensive, although they do a cheap sample pack which seems good value for 10x 2ml

>>14620905
Tried a bunch of them and the ones I remember are The Tragedy of Lord George and The Tragedy of Lord George. Good scents but not paying retail good.

>>14620912
kek meant Endymion Concentré

Thoughts on these forest / piney frags? I need a good one

>>14621139

what is the civet memes? i just got a zoology sampler from a friend and it has civet along with a few others but i haven't tried it yet. is it going to smell like an animal's asshole?

>>14621423
Civets trigger an autist who’s been shitting up our threads for the last little bit. He absolutely hates them. Dunno why. Civets are our guardians. They keep the sperg away.

>>14621139
If this stuff lasted more than 40 minutes on me it would be probably my favourite fragrance.

>>14619004
Hey that was me thanks this looks awesome!

>>14621441
>Fucking i already know it. There surely has to be something above eros.
There is only one fragrance and it's name is Eros.

This is the yoga pants and ugg boots of male frags in a list

>>14621139
Eau Sauvage.

One of my favourite openings but there’s nothing there past that.

>>14621495
It’s hilarious to me how I get inexplicable performance from this. Genuinely lasts all day on me and I don’t understand how.

Since people talk about Burberry London, do you think it’s necessary when I have Tobacco Vanille, Tobacco Oud, Snicebomb Extreme and Noir Extreme?

I’m not specifically referring to whether it smells the same, but whether it fulfils the same purpose.

>>14621664
I'm not sure it does anything Tobacco Vanille doesn't do better.

>>14621672
That’s what I was wondering. I’ve seen people say London smells like Christmas, and that’s exactly how I feel about TV. I’ll see what other people say, but that’s one less fragrance to worry about.

>>14621592
what the fuck does that even mean. Can't you guys post a single answer without stupid metaphors ? i mean, are these frags for fags, is that what you're trying to say? then say it straight forward lmao.

>>14621710

Seemed pretty straightforward to me

>>14621710
>this guy again

>>14621813
Try Lynx/Axe Oud and Vanilla bodyspray for a very basic idea that's mega cheap

Now it's getting colder out I'm getting a lot less of the citrus in DHC and more musk/florals.
Is this simply because it's September? I love it too much to not wear it at work.

>>14621572
Keep coping, Pajeet.

Has anyone tried anything from Parfums MDCI (I'm guessing is their name)? What do you think of it?

Has anyone had recent success with this frag? I remember it used to get me so many compliments back in the day, but then it just stopped having a lasting effect and I ditched it a long time ago

Also what's the opinion on Invictus?

>>14622332
It’s better than invictus, that’s for sure.

Holy shit squid smells good might actually cop a travel spray. Don't know if it's full bottle worthy though. Hard to describe the ink smell but it's there. Anyone else?

Whats a good gourmand fragrance for under $100?

>>14622427
I thought it smelled pretty generic. I was debating between squid and camel and am leaning very heavily toward camel.

>>14621867
I've heard fragrance one: office for men goes on like gasoline though.

>>14622252
What's it like?

>>14622427
Got mine recently. Like it a lot, though the opening smells like relish or something to me. The drydown is fantastic, though. I do think I like Civet better overall, but very happy with both.

>>14621139
Does terre not last for you? Fuck, I have a 2014 bottle and the longevity is really good. I hope they didn't kill it, I love it so much.

Can y'all help me square this circle?

I like the idea of having different fragrances for different occasions/moods/fits etc. But I also like the idea of just having one scent that i'm "recognized" by.

Hard to decide what is better

>>14622560
Get a signature scent for you and make a good first impression, they'll remember you well

I bought pic related from a chemist, while it's a great signature scent that women like I have to re-apply it twelve times a day.

Is Allure Homme a bad choice for a first "legit" fragrance?

>>14622597
Not at all. It’s a great choice.

>>14622460
Chanel Egoiste Platinum but fresher on top and less skanky on the finish. Definitely dated but not in a bad way.

Noir Argent was a blind buy that turned out well. Fantastic opening of myrrh leather dry cedar and incense. Smells fantastic, almost Comme Des Garcon level for the first couple hours. Around four hours in it sort of collaspses in on itself in a iso-e supet musky haze that reminded me of the drydown of Alien Man. Still a great frag, well worth it for the price.

>>14621354

>camel

if you want to smell like piss and trail mix, go for it.

>>14621945
Yo I’ve tested a couple of MDCI frags. The two most notable are Invasion Barbare and Chypre Palatin. They’re both really good and wearable. One is a nontrivial fresh fougere with a cardamom twist the other is the most complex Chypre I’ve ever tried with that lovely animalic-sweet-fresh orthogonal axes of development that make a good chypre. Top stuff. Prices might seem hefty at first but they’re not that bad once you’ll take their samples into consideration. Together with each bottle (non bust version) you get 5x12ml of scents of your choice. You can also buy a sample set first and then subtract spent that way money from a full bottle price.

>>14622441
If you liked Camel, try Arabie by Serge Lutens. It's more spiced (cloves + bay leaf) and less animalic but they both have great dried fruit notes.

Every Zoologist I've tried has been super interesting, considering getting Chameleon at some point

I posted about Diesel Plus Plus in the last thread and a few people said they remembered it, I got a sample of this and it smells pretty much identical IMO

>>14621354
>implying sluts aren't "normal women" and have completely different taste in what frags they like on the men they fuck
Virginpilled AF and if you can't figure it out on your own that all women like the same mass appealing shit...

>>14622840
The fragrance equivalent of buying knock off Gucci belts in Chinatown. Equally as "authentic" and well made.

My bottle of London came today and I literally cannot stop sniffing myself

Imagine not wanting to smell like a Portuguese cathouse

What's the deal with niche fragrances? Are they typically more expensive than popular ones? Is it because they sell less, or is it just hipster tax?

Also, how long does it take to process a return from Fragrancenet? Customer service is taking its sweet ass time getting back to me.

>>14623209
For the ultimate cozy scent should I get London or By the Fireplace?

>>14622780
I'm at a tossup between this and the original. Not sure which to get.

>>14623400
Niche fragrances are more experimental, more expensive (for the most part), and normally made with higher quality ingredients. The most important think about niche frags is that you wont smell like every turk wearing SPICEBOMB INTENSE. Niche frags are hit or miss, so before you buy a bottle, buy samples.

>>14623472
Not the same anon but I would try this one out instead. I have both and I think the original has bad performance but a good scent, worth the price for how much I got, but I also have to use more to get even average performance. I'm also this anon so take my word how you will.
>>14621363

>>14622808
have reflection, jubilation is about as wearable, so pretty good for amouage

>>14623321
give me some more info on this. every time I see it posted I just think "oh, there's that fancy green egg again" and disregard it. What does it actually smell like? is it good? is it a meme? is it both?

>>14623521
When I say "the original" here >>14623472
I mean, the original Nuit d'Issey fragrance, by the way.

I'm about to cop a frag after going a couple of years without any at all, what are any initial thoughts on these that are gaining track on fragnet?

MontBlanc Legend (looks new and interesting)
Sauvage
Eternity (claims to be mellow and ""mysterious"")
Invictus
Wanted (smelled decent when I once randomly tried it at a booth)

I don't want the typical aqua sporty scent or any of that Lacoste shit that Mexicans like to wear, something subtle but recognizable and ((mysterious)). I know I'm picking along the popular ones so please suggest any good ones not listed

>>14623557
ahh well I can't help you there unfortunately

>>14623566
That's alright. I appreciate the effort. I do have the l'eau d'Issey, and it's one of my favorites right now. Might just have to do a coin flip for the other two.

>>14623553
Cant possibly be a meme because i’m the only one that posts it. Its unironically very good but if you don’t like cheap/drugstore frags definitely avoid it.

Its a pine centric post-war fougere, a small category that was mostly popular in Italy, Spain and Portugal in between the traditional fougeres and the more modern aromatic fougeres. Lots of garden herbs, pine, citrus, and coumarin. Very fresh but woody enough that it’s persistent in cool weather. Older formulations had less staying power, new bottles have a pronounced dihydromyrcenol in the opening and woody amber in the base, extending the performance quite a bit.

>>14623559
Just get sauvage and Eros

>>14622427
Please tell me this doesnt smell anything like fish lol

>>14622560
Wear a different fragrance to different social circles/situations so those people recognize you as one scent and another group recognizes you as another scent

>>14623688
Fucking love pine frags
Would you rec any others that are good? I need to get more because I want to expand my taste in this area but I don't know where to start

>>14623709
It does not. It does smell extremely salty in the opening, though. Almost smells umami, if that makes any sense. Very strange. That part only lasts 20 minutes or so, though.

Yatagan

quick question: I like the way my gfs perfume smells, but a lot. Is it weird if I spray some on myself? she just smells like flowers all the time and I want to smell that

>>14623850
The scent is Narciso Rodriguez For Her if it matters

Also very popular in Yugoslavia, so if you want to fuck milfs and chicks with daddy issues from the balkans this is your safest bet

What frags would be a good choice to layer with London? say 3 sprays of London and then 1 on the chest of another scent for a light combo?

>>14623850
Genders on the perfume box is pure marketing. Flowers tend to be more feminine and woods tend to be more masculine, but in the end just wear what you like.

Should I cop a decant of Bois de Portugal for a horse race event where the dresscode is suit/tie?
Or just grab a bottle of Polo Blue EDP and get an atomiser to respray later on in the day?

>>14623753
Guide is horrific and filled with hipster frags (besides yatagan and polo) and leaves Pino out lol

>>14623450
Just ordered a sample of Fireplace, sounded cozy

Any recommendations for something that smells like a fresh flowery summer without being cloyingly sweet? All my fragrance is fall or office wear.

Just got back from a date. Wore Roja Enigma. The girl said she loved my cologne because it smelled very fresh.

I don’t think I’m gonna have a second date. Our kids would be noselets.

>>14624871
agreed, roger dove enthusiasts should not procreate

>>14624374
>layering garbage
just buy a good frag

>>14623688
Fuck I knew it was just one person. You convinced me but I know you're shitposting so fuck it. Copped pic related too.

>>14625046
OG Olivier Polge version is legit

>>14618053
I have Sauvage. You will get compliments. I've gotten at least five that I can remember, which says a lot. Most of my other colognes don't get compliments, Sauvage is my go to.

>>14618144
>>14618147
what this guy said. i don't wear colognes I don't like unless they get me daily compliments

>>14618533
It sucks because I smelled this everywhere and finally found the fragrance and now the smell has worn down.

I'm in between these two. Anyone have any insight?

La Nuit De L'Homme Yves Saint Laurent

Serge Lutens Chergui

>>14625132
Chergui is significantly more interesting and nuanced, la nuit will get better reactions.

tell me about your helmut lang frag. is it any good? I love the notes listed but im unsure

>>14625304
Who are these guys?

>>14625412
Eugenius and the guy banging his wife

>>14623829
Kouros layered with Tuscan leather

>>14625304
How do you feel about jeremy fragrance though?

COMPLIMENTS

>>14625132
Nuit has pretty shit performance. Haven't tried Chergui but it's high on my list

>>14625742
Do you mean sillage and longevity? From what I am experiencing it has a nice scent that appeals to the masses.

>>14623553
>give me some more info on this
In italy it's the standard grandpa perfume; it's not bad, but you have to like the pine flavour, and even if you do there are a a lot of better one if you spenda bit more.
It's decent if you're on a budget, but if you're young i wouldn't recommend it

>>14625654
is it worth the ten bucks for a kouros sample just to understand the meme value? I know i wont like it

>>14625304
>I want my arm to look like it got no blood flow in it
>I got you,senpai

has anyone tried the Le Labo city exclusives? which one is your fav

Help, I want an incense heavy frag but don't wanna smell like literal Catholic Church. Armani Bois d'Encens is an example of what i don't want in that regard, it's literal Church Incense, too austere and serious. I'd like something a bit warmer and more wearable
Is Montale full incense what I want?

>>14625748
Yeah, definitely a nice scent. But it doesn't last.

>>14626064
Do you live near a Sephora/Boots/etc?

I went to my local on Saturday and sprayed it on just for shits. I mean, don't let memes be dreams. But, it's also not worth $10 for a sample.

Test

Dunhill Icon or the Og Gucci Guilty for a cheap spring/summer frag for when I can't decide on what frag to wear

>>14626238

Something by Slumberhouse

>>14625558
Kristos is probably the biggest faggot in fragcom wy talking about?

>>14620074
Its 9/10 but unwearable for me. I have a small decant because I love it but there is nowhere to wear it besides black tie or a wedding.

>>14620487
+1 for hinoki. Oud wood is a meme, La nuit tier longevity. Cape heartache is my favorite woods, something very emotional about it

>>14620940
cape heartache

All zoologist smells like piss so you're in the wrong house if you dont like that. Camel is top tier zootopia, dragonfly is pretty neat aquatic too.

>>14624871
Obligatory "all girls are noselets" I had a girl tell me eros was "too spicy"

what's with all the ferret pics lol they're so cute

Sent from my Samsung S4 using Tapatalk

>>14626820
>ferrets

They’re CIVETS you absolute pleb!

Can I get away with wearing a frag like The One EDT in summer if I'm very light with the sprays?

>>14626714
>cape heartache
Wtf strawberry? Sounds pretty gay desu

I have a history with this scent, it started back in 2011 when I read an extremely motivational post on /fit/ which included this fragrance by name, and so I went on my university years enjoying success and mires for how I smelled.

However as the years went on it became apparent anything new was diluted, and recently I wanted to try it again but read it was discontinued in 2011, so who knows what rat has been out there selling old diluted shit.

Would anyone please recommend me something with similar notes as this, that is newer and currently made? The initial kick was anything if not generic but the lingering scent of old Chrome Legend was extremely well-liked

>>14620940
Slumberhouse Grev is more piney than Norne. Basically smells like a Little Tree air freshener plus a hit of clove and spearmint. Lasts forever, too.

>>14626981
Try it out and report back.

>>14626981
Nah, m8. They’ll lock you up.

>>14627037
Cape Heartache was awful to my nose. Sweet strawberry shortcake with artificial pine. Yuck.

>>14627130
Yea it sounds like shit desu

Anyone have thoughts on Terenzi Ecstasy?

>>14627039
It’s not actually “discontinued,” its being manufactured by a different company, i think Coty. New bottles are just as strong. Similar scenario as Individuel which is also “discontinued.”

Guys I want to make a Vampire themed scent, give me recs on some notes I should use

No memes I just want to have fun

>>14627039
not discontinued. still strong as shit. i can only go two sprays on the back of my neck cause this shit gives me a headache.

>>14627341
Rose and black pepper and nothing else

Thoughts on Salvatore Ferragamo f black?

>>14627346
I dont wear it much anymore so I actually donated my bottle to the gym I go to, they keep it in the bathroom now. Gym owner really likes it lol

I got a wonderoud sample and it’s So good

I FUCKING hate oud. A whiff of any oud notes and im fighting not to gag.
Fuck oud!

I have fragrances for summer, winter, clubbing etc but need something for first/second dates. Any recommendations?

I am 28 yo and studying/working, mostly going out with early to mid-20s

>>14627037

>>14627211

Worthless fucking plebeians. Cape heartache is based. “Oh strawberry is gay”. It’s all fucking gay this is perfume, all of its gay not just one ingredient. It’s all artificial too “muh artificial pine”. Everything except the raw oil itself is artificial. Leave you worthless summer scum, you donkeys, swine, leave this fucking board. Tiziana is overpriced and not innovative. Unless you’ve sampled chimera or one of his serious frags shut up. Take your laudano and al contrario and blow it out your ass Jeremy faggots. I cannot fucking believe you don’t like cape heartache fuck you.

>>14627787
yikes

I tried Luna Rossa Carbon today, a sample I got from sephora from last month I'm shocked how good it is desu, I thought /fa/ was just memeing

>>14626848
Do they actually kill these just to make a bottle of frag?

>>14625121
>You will get compliments.

From sluts with no taste mostly if you want to be realistic

>>14621354
Anything that is a favor of the month, doesn't take a genius to figure it out

>>14621377
>>14621441
Isn't Eros known as a clubbing frag?

>>14621139
One of the most early frag I got when I was 13 was Adidas Deep Energy even though I love the smell but the performance is dogshit

>>14620133
>business trip to sri lanka

Just don't get blown up

>>14627801
Of course. Throw ‘em into the grinder whole. They smell better when they’re fresh.

>>14627801
I mean, what else would they be doing with them? Collecting their shit to make expensive coffee and perfume?

>>14627787
Lol pretty good there bud 8/10
Enjoy your tree + strawberry Starburst fragrance

>>14626848
Do you know if any woody civet poo fragrances?

>>14617628
Blindly copped these, don't disappoint me /frag/
Will post impressions in a week or so

>>14628268
I really like Encre Noire, but it's not for everybody. Wouldn't recommend blind buying, but since you got it already, you might as well try it out.

>>14628268

None of those should do you any wrong.

>CK One Shock
Good enough starter evening/colder weather frag but wouldn't buy again, you'll move on find similar but much better things that last better and dry down better.

>Lalique Encre Noire
Like above poster, not for everyone but it's a good candidate for babby's first designer/niche crossover, best entry level pure woodsy frag.

>Lacoste L . 12 . 12 white
Nothing special but perfectly good fresh smelling, unoffensive and highly wearable everyday frag.

>>14628268
>>14628346
I've heard it smells like ink and dirt/soil, is that true or a far too simplified take? It interests me but I'm not sure I would wear it often.

>>14627341
Idk, very animalistic notes and oak moss hidden under grave yard flowers, and an almost too strong scent of something that smells like wealth and luxury. Its gotta be intoxicating, overpowering, alluring and unsettling at the same time.

>>14628255
Zootopian Civet.

>>14628406
Why not just Eros and rat blood

>>14627798
I got a sample recently too and am definitely buying soon. I also got a sample of all the bvlgari aquas, and I bought aqua marine over carbon

>>14627341
Xerjoff Mefisto already exists.

Which fragrance do you use for first dates?

>>14628791
Something sweet, tonka based.

>>14628791

Secretions Magnifique.

You can't tell the difference what is and isn't perfume by the end of the night.

>>14628751
Great suggestion by the reviews of it, thanks anon

By the Fireplace sample is coming today, and a storm is coming tomorrow, can already feel the cold winds blowing. Its perfect timing.

>>14628803

Examples?

>>14628791
Lubin Idole, turned a hookup into several more hookups, and eventually a relationship. She said she kept smelling whiffs of it and kept thinking of me. Idk if that helps, it really is nice during sex because it heats up and gives off a really spicy scent.

>>14628959
Go on fragrantica, there are literally countless ones but here are SOME: Chanel Allure Extreme, Armani Code Profumo, Guerlain Ideal, Valentino Uomo, D&G The One... like I said these are just a few off the topic of my head and literally ANY of these will get really positive reactions from any girl.

>>14627404
its alright, its a good beater fragrance in my collection. my mom seems to really like it even when compared to fantastic things like bdc, dhi, dg the one edp. maybe it just appeals to older people more

>>14628984
So what you're saying is women like tonka bean

>>14629100
Yes. And civets.

>>14629111
So what you're saying is, feed civets tonka beans and make perfume out of their poops to make the most irresistible scent of all?

>>14629115
Excellent idea, get on it before Creed steals your idea. Civentus.

Anybody know where I can get a sample of pure tonka in europe? Also any other good coffee ish frags. I really like black phantom
>>14623939
>Zagorsk
Amazing my favourite from series 5 and a top 3 scent for sure. It's woody and smokey, the and birch are really good in this
>Avignon
Also amazing. This really smells mysterious like an old cathedral in France. Quite strong incense imo
Both are winter scents for sure
>>14626208
Hooker anon was on the hunt for them a while ago maybe he can help
>>14626238
Cdg Avignon
>>14627341
Iron would be cool but hard. Also Moss or incense. Maybe a wood note for the coffin?
>>14627599 see the first two levels>>14621867

>>14623450
Thought the same thing so I tried a sample of By the Fireplace and it was way too sweet smelling for me. Maybe it was just my skin but the "caramelized sugar" smell some people pick up on was very intense for me in a bad way. I prefer London.

in what occassion could I wear this?

>>14627808
90% of women are sluts with no taste, what's your fucking point
