>>14808127

Did you have sex today?

>>14808159
No ;_;

Asking again in the new thread:
Lads, i wanna smell like a rocky montain forest, if that makes any fucking sense.
I guess im looking for woody/green type of fragance. Something that gives that nature-ish, comfy vibe.

Me sitting here wanting to order more frags even though I have plenty

>>14808124
Is Montale Greedy Chocolate as good as it seems?

>>14808165
Slumberhouse Grev or Norne.

what am i in for

>>14808210

What's the difference between Sauvage and Eau de Sauvage?

>>14808235
juste un trou d'eau

Anyone has a list of good woody colognes I could try out? Nothing niche please, as I dont have the budget for that sadly.

>>14808246
Encre Noir
Eau De Cade
Bentley for Men Absolute

Step aside, plebs.

>>14808477
Hey, you said the thing again!

>>14808235
Comepletly different smell nothing alike

>>14808235
What's the difference between Zoomer and Boomer?

SOTD: pic related from my Bloom sample. Xerjoff Naxos which is also heavy on honey+tobacco smells like a joke in comparison to how rich this thing is. Duchaufour has yet to disappoint me: Chypre Palatin, Timbuktu, Jubi XXV and now this thing.

What are you wearing lads?

>>14808477
Based. Also checking these godly dubs.

>>14808124
best from dior's prive line?

>>14807975
I don't like it. For me it's chaotic and unbalanced. Some citruses, some spices, some flowers and all of them don't really come together.

L'HOMME INFINIMENT

I've learned recently about The Sniff and their articles are really great and they're still very active (unlike many websites from the OP's list). We should include it to the OP in the next thread. Have a good read:
https://the-sniff.com/2019/10/31/where-to-start-with-niche-perfumery/

Welcome... Would you like to have a dive into my world and take a look at my collection..?

I need a quick rundown on this, anyone? I heard it's a 80's style green with some Oud.

>>14808553
SOTD: Prada L'homme. Disappointing as always

Quick reminder that this stuff literally causes blowjobs

>>14808613
Okay, now this is Epic

>>14808605
A man of good taste, I see.

>>14808605
a couple of good ones yes, with the rest you could as well have flushed your money down the toilet

anyone here try DIYing their own smells? also what one scent would pair up with cinnamon well. thinking pepper or leather

>>14808605
That collection screams "i like smelling good, but i have limited finances"

>>14808626
This anon speaks true. Literally every time I wear this, my dick gets sucked

>>14808165
Dsquared Rocky Mountain Wood see the infographic >>14808132, can be had cheap

Duchaufour is a legend senpai. I always wanted to try Bois d'Ascese from this house but I've since moved away from smokies

Since this is one of the only 4chan threads I participate in, it's weird how ok boomer has rocketed into the mainstream. 4chan makes a meme again

top 3 fragrance sampler kits under $40?

Are Guerlain fragrances wearable for young men?

demi sounds fucking retarded. shes just overmilking her accent to sound cute right?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B2-1vvBbd0

For me it's Chance by Chanel

after my order for my mum and myself come in a couple days ago, I have the itch to buy more frags.
Please help

>>14808783
ok roastie

>>14808124
Can anyone poast the Quorum vs Eros pic, the one with the 2 guys?

>>14808144
Get heritage instead

>>14808489
Then what's with the similar names? (Sorry for being a pleb, I seriously don't know)

>>14808790
shut up! im not a whore :(

>>14808626
I kind of like Intensa or the original Colonia smell more.

Essenza does smell like my barbershop though

>>14808789
There will come a time when you've got a bunch of full bottles that you don't really care that much about, and then you have to get rid of them. It's best to avoid that.

>>14808889
This. Do yourself a favour and buy samples instead. You’ll develop your nose that way really quick

>>14808886

Mine smells like Albanian sweat

>>14808605
that pic is amazing though, great colors.

>>14808889
am i the only one passionate about all my bottles?(aside from my gym burners which still have their place). I only buy stuff im crazy about

>>14808857
Are... are you Alex?

>>14808857
Cute doggo :3

>>14808939
Everyone could be like you if they sampled more and bought less

>>14808857
You post really nice pics when insulted, looking forward to next thread chanceanon

>>14808793

Ordering the following samples:
>MDCI Chypre Palatin
>MDCI Invasion Barbare
>CDG Avignon
>Histoires des Parfums 1725
How am I doing, guys?

>>14808760
Yes, they are.
Already bought Vetiver, I'm looking over pic related.

>>14809203
Protip: Canada, particularly Toronto and Montreal, have vibrant escort scenes, aren’t too far (unless you’re on the west coast, I guess), and are cheap due to the exchange rate. It’s technically illegal there, but not enforced unless you’re knowingly seeing underage or trafficked girls.

t. Hookerfag

>>14808760
Good question. Everything I smelled required some maturity, so if you put the equality sign between a young men and someone looking club pantydroppers, then I'm afraid Guerlain might be a wrong address.
>>14809211
Good stuff but to be honest having both HdP 1725 and IB is a bit redundant. Ordering samples of both might be a good thing if you want to decide which one do you prefer. Avignon is intellectually stimulating but hard to wear. Chypre Palatin is absolutely stunning. My favourite fragrance to date. I wouldn't recommend blindbuying any of these (let alone because of price) but for sampling it's very good choice and you'll learn a lot. If you happen to like MDCIs then remember about their sampling program where you can get 5x12ml of MDCI fragrances of your choice for only £90.

>>14809226
>Avignon is intellectually stimulating but hard to wear.
I have Passage d'Enfer by L'Artisan Parfumeur and I love it. I wouldn't maybe wear it outside, but when at home, it's great. If Avignon does the same to me, I would definitely cop it.

>>14809211
>>14809226
>>14809252
my 13 year old brother wears avignon and i cant fucking stand it

>>14808210
Actually not that much tobacco, more cacao and warm spicy notes, kinda like a good smelling cinamon. It's nice and sweet, very comfy. I am into those kinds of smells and I tend to see people liking it but rarely chosing it as their scent.

What are some excellent smelling soaps?

What are some excellent smelling deodorants?

>>14808749
the hdp one

>>14809211
Avignon is marvelous. I love it together with Zagorsk more than Tokyo. It's minimalist, unique and the lengthy gentle flower smell is lovely.

Do you guys conceal carry? Makes me feel more manly when wearing girly perfume

>>14808780

Her target demographic is nearly identical to Jeremeys

>>14809281
which one is that? Histoires des Parfums?

>>14808749
L'Atelier Cologne has a great set for $35, or you could get the advent calendar for the same price, which includes a bunch of soaps and other stuff.
ELDO has 7 frags as a set also for very little money. Same for Maison Francis Kurdkjian or whatever.

>>14808749
Also Parfums de Nicolai has a 6x1.5ml for 30 euros.

>>14808749
>>14809323
>>14809333
Looked up one of the recent threads. I wrote an essay on sample packs. Atelier, MMM, Xerjoff, MFK, Nicolai, ELDO, Juliette has a gun, Papillon, Memo etc

>>14809339
Look*
Also if you're by any chance from UK, then just go to Jovoy/Bloom/Les Senteurs. Jovoy do as many free samples as you can hold, Bloom will get you 20 samples of whatever you want for £40 and Les Senteurs give 2 free samples per visit.
>>14809333
Also checking these trips for Nicolai

For me, it's Skin Bracer.

>>14809323
yea this one

>>14808210
The tops if you like sweet and spices

>>14809373
I'd love to get that one, but at least in europe it says out of stock.

>>14809388
Every good set is always out of stock on every brand

swear to god guys. mailman gets later and later every day. Waiting on my timbuktu sample today and maybe my luna rossa sport bottle

>>14809314
Yes. I always have a bottle of Eros stashed up the ol’ bum. I’d rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it, y’know?

this thread is pathetic

>>14809166

>>14809459

>>14809361

My boomer dad thinks its the best cologne ever. He thinks my frags are gay and maybe rightfully so but I can beat him in a fight so whatever

just got my Floraiku sample set, 11x1.5ml. Really excited about this brand. Their flacons are effay as fuck.

Got samples of AdP Colonia Sandalo and Guerlain Santal Royal in the post over the last few days to compare and narrow down which is worth a buy. Now after a proper wear on both I don't really want either. Had and sold Tam Dao EDP because it smelled nicer as a room spray than on skin and was let down by the longevity of Floris Santal.

Anyone got good recommendations for sandalwood frags where it's most prominent rather than a background note? It's a note I do like but find so hard to the 'right' one, starting to feel like I'm chasing a unicorn that doesn't exist.

i saw some rumors that mymickers commited suicide brehs

>>14809507

I hated Santal Royal when I first smelled it. Then it began growing on me.
Nowadays I own a fb and think it's the comfiest smell ever. I even wear it at home when alone.
10/10 would bathe in it

>>14809482
Damn that is a nice bottle, let us know your thoughts anon!

>>14809507

Also, if what you're looking for is the creaminess of the santal you should have a look at Parle Moi de Parfum's, Milky Musk.
Despite the name I notice no musk at all, only sandalwood and creamy vibes.

>>14809477
I remember you from a few threads ago talking about how you mogged him at the dinner table or something. What frags do you where around him? Are there any that he thinks are particularly gay?

>>14809477
Okay zoomer

>>14809507
You're doing it right mate with all that sampling, don't worry. You could try Santal Majuscule but it has quite prominent rose in it or Sacred Wood By Kilian (sandalwood + faint smell of milk). I believe that the best option for you though is to go the ittar way if you want to something that's mostly just sandalwood. Arabs have been producing this stuff for centuries and the quality is amazing (I only sniffed some in Arabian Oud shop at Time Square, so I guess this is just the tip of the iceberg). However, you'll need to pay a bit extra if you want to get good stuff but imo it's worth it. Sadly ittars are not discussed here a lot, so I can't recommend you anything other than Sultan Pasha and Arabian Oud really.
>>14809529
That's true but typically you can tell that after 5-10 wears which you can get out of a 2ml sample. I really think he did the right thing. One can always revisit a frag later and moreover there are so many great things to smell that there's no point to give another try a fragrance that one didn't like after going through a sample.

>>14809551

Looks good, defo going to sample it next time I go to Les Scenteurs

>>14809562

Sacred Wood looks good but keep seeing it has performance issues which is a big no at that price. Also might be too similar to CdG Kyoto and Wonderwood that I already have.

>>14809617
Also it’s totally some other guy singing his verses

>>14809436
ok boomer

>>14809524
>>14809613
This sadly doesn't come as a surprise. I was saying it a long time ago after seeing this video that he has some serious issues and might commit a suicide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBM1RYhtkIs
Sad to hear that he didn't get any help and lost it. For some reason the frag community is full of these superficially extroverted neurotic type of people (I don't really know how to describe it).
I don't know why but I barely see them elsewhere but this niche is full of them. I'm afraid that /ourguy/ Eugenius and this lad from video bellow could follow the same path. You can easily see the common denominator between three of them as the internal conflicts within them are really plainly visible. You can screencap this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndAU1OAQZqA

>>14809663
Eugenius is 6”5 with a hot mystery meat wife and kids. Think he’ll be fine

>>14809663

Now that the dust has settled, let's settle this guys once and for all. Demi or Alex?

>>14809690
well not everyone can look like our boy clayton

>>14809693
Alex. Demi looks like a boring thot that would max your credit cards after the first week. Also she probably has a Stacy miasma since she has said that she could do 5 sprays of oud satin mood or 10 sprays of some literally who thot juice.

>>14809279
Don't go for scent for deodorants. No scent or light unisex scented antiperspirants like Arm and Hammer are based. Don't fall for the MUH ALUMINUM single digit IQ myth.

>>14809524
He didn’t kill himself. He was wearing too much Aventus so life asked him to leave.

>>14809693
Is this a meme? Alex by miles. Demi is a 6/10 with makeup, filters, etc., and has hit the wall (see recent videos). Alex is legitimately hot af.

>>14809602

Worst opening ive ever smelled. Its a bad meme. I was in disbelief when I smelled it because I couldnt imagine something that awful being shilled here besides TDH. Just buy aventus decant.

>>14809555

When I'm visiting around my parents I dont wear anything anymore. I would just rather not tarnish my image in front of him as per his tastes. I dont need to waste juice with any family anyway. I do give my mom interesting samples of anything I have that is unisex and something I can hand-me-down. I am also nasomatto shill so I have robust powerful extraits, so if sauvage was too much the rest of my collection would nose rape him

>>14809879
You’re Arab oilnigger you don’t get to name yourself and tdh is a perfect pleb filter. didn’t even need to read past that to know your opinion is trash. No offense

Ok /frag/
I dress in a streetwear casual style (bomber/varsity jackets, logo sweatshirts with denim shirts and jeans with minimal white trainers as an overall example)
What niche frags should I sample?

>>14809693
>>14809971
Ah good old times. Does anyone have more of these saved?

I wish all decanters would use these bottles

>>14810013

>>14809742
>looks like a boring thot that would max your credit cards after the first week
Do Americans really give access to their cards to their girlfriends? How does it even work?

>>14808144

I own the EDT and love it, will probably buy a 50ml of the EDP eventually

>>14808165

Juniper Ridge might have something, can't comment on their performance though

>>14808553
SOTD was L'ame d'un Héros from Guerlain from a sample atomizer. L'ame d'un Heros is said to be a repackaging of Coriolan which I'd like to sample. I'd like to own one or the other.

>>14808760
The L'Ideal is more youthful than L'Instant but L'Instant is not old smelling.

>>14809226
Have you ordered one of those MDCI croffets? I was very interested in doing that a few months ago with the good currency exchange at the moment. It looks like you have to email them with a request of what you want and possibly send payment options of email. I wish they would update that.

>>14809259

Your little brother is a Chad

>>14809551

I still need to buy their sample set. Full bottles are popping up on eBay for good prices.

did they?

>>14810046
He probably threw up when he saw her cleavage and made her change.

Has anyone here tried this? Stop me from blind buying please.

Just testing my sample of this Frappin before bed and this is the final answer to the question ‘what’s the upgrade from TdH?’. Both people who like TdH will enjoy it as it’s great quality masculine blend with oranges and woody notes on the first stage and those who find TdH cloying/too heavy on ISO E Super or vetiver as it’s better balanced out. Also one can find bottles of Frappin for real cheap. Good stuff

>>14810063
You should be able to sample bois 1920 easily desu. Haven’t tried this one but looks like a nice fruity chypre without overwhelming base notes.

I've actually never smelled Eros until today, goddamn it smells good.

>>14810083
same, after seeing all the memes i went to Macy's just to smell it and went back home. it's good but i don't think i'll get one

>>14810024
>Have you ordered one of those MDCI croffets? I was very interested in doing that a few months ago with the good currency exchange at the moment. It looks like you have to email them with a request of what you want and possibly send payment options of email. I wish they would update that.
Yes. You need to inform Claude what 5 frags you want and he’ll send you a PayPal request. He also gave me one additional 12ml bottle and 2 golden MDCI travel atomisers extra free of charge. Top lad.

Incredibly based, Im gonna sample their 3 or 4 newest to see if there is anything worth owning in one of those minis and buying basically what you've got there. Then you get a 90 euro credit towards a full bottle?! Wew sir wery wery long lasting

>>14810147
Holy shit yeah

>>14809663
You were talking about Eugenuis, dont front.

Mymickers had a health condition that he spoke about in a video or two. He’s also too dumb to self reflect enough to self loathe. He had zero self awareness

>>14808626
yo gimme the rundown on that leather-wrapped bottle

>>14808626
Somehow Colonia Pura is the only one I have tried but I really liked it.

>>14809482
effay but also too expensive and kinda cringe

Lads i got some samples and i need help deciding on what is redundant im trying to keep my bottle amount below 10 i currently own luna rossa sport, and the one EDP and zara 9.0 although the last one is so cheap i dont consider it to be full bottle. Bottles i want to cop

>mancera aoud lemon mint
I want to make this my dumb reach for spring/summer/fall its just amazing and i love it still have to go all the way through my sample so ill see if that changes

>zoologist squid
i cant get enough of this i want to use this in the summer and fall i def want one i probably wont wear it as often as aoud lemon mint but i plan on wearing it in the same situations as aoud lemon mint and date nights in S/F

>Zoologist chameleon
I want this but not as bad as squid i could turn it into a daily driver for S/S but the price of doing that seems too much imo and im worried its use would be redundant with squid

>zoologist camel
I like it but probably not full bottle worthy for me but i also havent sampled it a ton so i will see if this changes over time

>zoologist civet
Very nice but i feel the same as camel towards it

>lubin akkad
I havent sampled this one too much but it smells very snice overall one im the least convinced about i would use it as my F/W daily driver i want to sample idole before making a decision thinking of asking for christmas

>mugler pure malt
Dumb reach in the F/W i also like it a lot

>tea for two
Dont know when i would wear this but going to a coffee shop or staying at home reading seems pretty comfy to me

Out of all of these im only ALMOST completly sold on squid and aoud lemon mint thoughts?

What the fuck is even happening right now? I couldn't smell anything for the first hour, but now it's so strong it slaps me in the face from two feet away, but if I stick my nose in it I can't smell it at all.

>>14808159
yes

What are some other scents that are heavy in the black pepper area? I love the smell of this.

>>14810353
Might want to try black by CDG

>>14810360
Seems like that fits the bill, thanks. Any others I should sample?

The gf wants to get me a /frag/ for Christmas which means something that can be found in Sephora. I told her not to waste any money on Sauvage or Eros and of course those are the ones she was shown by the sales rep. Please give her some suggestions.

>>14810382
Maybe this is pleb tier but I really like this and Coach Platinum. Both great winter scents

>>14810394
I already have coach platinum and I don’t really think it’s a winter scent, pretty pineappley. But I’ll check out Legend.

>>14810400
I've seen people describe it as pineapple heavy too, but I honestly think it's more peppery than anything. At least give the Legend Night a shot, it's vanilla heavy but masculine

>>14810382
Anything from Hermes or Tom Ford.

>>14810253

I heard it was a very weak performer

>>14810238

Your the second person to say squid is based I am so tempted to get a sample

>>14809663
I know EXACTLY what you mean and it's hard to describe. But in a nutshell it's that most frag reviewers are likely complete losers/nobodies in real life but in their knowledge of fragrances combined with trying to get YT views they kind of find something they might be good at. It gives them some confidence to be a big member of the "community".

Does it count as a blindbuy if I paid $8 for a 5mL Wonderoud decant from Surrendertochance, despite only having smelled Zagorsk by CdG?

Also, is CB I Hate Perfume any good?

>>14810382
Maison Margiela - By The Fireplace or Jazz Club
Acqua Di Parma
Chanel (simply because Chanel is not easy to get cheaper than retail)
Gucci Pour Homme II if they still have stock

Don't care if this is for females. This is a 10/10 perfume regardless.

>>14810495
Acqua di Parma is ludicrously expensive at Sephora. $165 for 100 mL of Essenza.

Every self-respecting fougdaddy needs to walk into their closest Walmart and buy a bottle of Preferred Stock this instant. It’s the first thing I’ve smelled in a while that actually blew me away and I got a bottle on clearance for $9. Fucking do it.

>>14810541
>fougdaddy
You gotta stop this.

>>14810519
fag

>>14810538
ah skip those then I think they can be had heavily discounted on ebay

>>14810546
Yeah everything else just seems to be typical retail markup but AdP is crazy expensive. Further evidence that if you actually buy perfume in a real store you’re retarded.

Rate my lineup, im just starting

For summer/spring: GIT, Acqua di gio, encre noir sport, bleu de chanel
For fall/winter: encre noir, ultra male, bentley intense
For going out: aventus, la nuit dlomme, dior homme

Ferragamo f black

Hey guys, maybe someone can help me out.
An anon here advised getting CH men privé, and though it sounds really great I am afraid of blind buying it for a couple of reasons:
Heard some yt review descriptions like its boozy and bad boy style of scent. Though I get drunk very regularly, I don't want to come across as a club guy or something like that. I am a sort of cashier, so I can't really be too in your face. I was looking for what you call a signature scent.
Second thing is I live in a country with a warmer climate, so I am thinking this is many times sold as a Winter fragrance... Might not work.
Can someone reassure me of this frag or director me to something better?
Thank you!

>>14810063
1920 Classic is god-tier if you want a simple, fresh citrus.

OH MY GOODNESS MY NAME IS ASIAHLUCY TALITHA AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE PERFUME THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL THREAD!!!

>>14810693
Don't blind buy anything. Always sample first.

>>14810890
I don't have a lot of shops nearby. Anyone knows a EU website that ships samples to you?

What's your word..for me it's my pre-reformulation TFTL.

>>14810895
The sticky has some. Perfumista and bloom perfume are the most notorious of the bunch. The manufacturers themselves sometimes sell samples too.

>>14810431
Probably this, but I think there's something about this hobby that brings lots of socially inept people with issues. Maybe the fact that it's classically feminine thing to do is the first filter. The other is that you must be quite sensitive to appreciate things like abstract scent compositions. Then there's obviously the internal longing for fame that you're speaking about. Weird stuff.
>>14810165
The newest series gets very mixed reviews. If you want something else than the classic fougere-chypre IB-CP duo by MDCI then try Fetes Persanes. It's the smoothest oriental fragrance I've tried.
>>14810238
Good stuff, thanks for reporting. Have you tried Cedrat Boise by Mancera? If you're really sold on aoud lemon mint then I'd suggest you looking up some deals on facebook groups. You can get genuine new boxed Mancera/Montales really cheap (at least here in UK). I was also impressed with Squid, that's some really nice and standing out fragrance. For me Civet smells way better than Camel which is a bit skanky. I'd go for Zoologist Squid and something for colder weather like Tea for Two.
>>14810360
Seconding this
>>14810620
It's quite random desu. If you didn't buy these bottles then hold your horses and try to get 5ml samples of each first. You've got snice things here but I get you'll eventually grow to hate half of your bottles. There's no point at rushing at the beginning. Don't do the mistake that these redditors do and end up with 20 bottles of mediocre fragrances.

It's not a problem. 99% of population can think about fragrances only in categories 'nice' 'not nice'.
>Second thing is I live in a country with a warmer climate, so I am thinking this is many times sold as a Winter fragrance... Might not work.
This might be the issue though. If you want something reasonably priced for warmer climate try: Cedrat Boise, Bright Neroli, Lalique White

Eww

>>14810945
Im sample anon, i git a sample pack from mancera which had cedrat boise, aoud lemon mint, aoud blue notes, wind woody, black gold and black line in it but of them all i like blue notes and aoud lemon mint the best, but i also havent worn cedrat boise too much mostly black gold lemon mint and blue notes. Blue notes is the best stereotypical "blue frag" imo cause it does what a blue frag is supposed to do but smells unique wind woody smells like every other fresh woody frag imo.

>>14810541
It’s trash, and stop calling yourself a “fougdaddy” you fucking autist lol, you guys started wearing fougeres two weeks ago ffs.

should I cop a 2ml sample and test it out in the winter some?

>>14811379
Fragrance one smells pretty good. Not $120 good, but definitely better than shit like YSL Y in the same price bracket and style. It's a meme but atleast a better one than Eros or TdH because if you think about it, Office is pretty much created randomly by Alberto Morillas' AI fragrance algorithms, making it a creation of chaotic Kek energies.

As you can see I have plenty of cheapo drugstore frags and there's a reason I don't have preferred stock. No reason for it when things like Drakkar Noir, Cool Water, AQ or even Sung Homme exist.

>>14811337
What’s your favorite fougere from your collection?

>>14811447
Rive Gauche is one of the best smells ever but it's unfortunately discontinued now. Azzaro PH is pretty similar but not as clean. Cool Water, Pino, and Kouros are all tied for being the most technically accomplished. L'HOMME INFINIMENT is my favorite out of all my frags but it's not a fougere, it's a chypre.

>>14811337
if any femanons are lurking, if you go to a guys house and he has more than 3 of these frags, he's going to murder you.

>>14811677
Really good just get it

Thoughts on pic related?

Fairly interesting release in that it's a fresh daytime winter frag, not something very well represented as a genre. Very light and smooth, no idea what the performance and longevity is like so waiting on a sample in the post.

>>14811682
a family member is in spain right now and gets it for me, hope its good

>>14811688
It’s a lavender and ambroxan scent. Smells like Sauvage but a lot better

>>14808626
Is this a good, stronger, alternative to AdP Colonia?

Are there any good cheaper alternatives to Montale's Dark Aoud?

>>14811684
Very snice stuff. Wound up copping at the airport a few weeks back. Very floral, sweet, but not overly. Fresh, but has sort of a slight bitter and resinous facet, probably the carrot seed and benzoin. Performance is pretty good on me, 6-8 hours or so. Not crazy projection, it’s a bit more soft, but it’s not a skin scent either. Great release from the house in my opinion. Definitely worth a try.

>>14811668

You can get it for around 50GBP for 100ml.

>>14811784
Hahahaha I see that dude and this same post all the time

>>14811760

Simlar to Rive Gauche but with less of the creamy barbershop feel. Slightly spicier and sharper on the opening but overall just as smooth and even better performing in terms of projection and longevity. One of the best Private Blends to come out in years.

>>14811805
Well that’s good to hear because it’s still a lot cheaper than vintage RG.

Any fragrance that smells like Ice?

>>14811828
Silver Mountain Water is the closest thing I know of

>>14811835
I second this. Also YSL Ultime

>>14811828
What does ice smell like?

Whats a cheap fragrance that smells like the beach/ocean?

>>14811902
I cant tell you enough, save up some cash and buy Imaginary Author's Every Storm A Serenade. Its like 95 dollars but if you want good ocean smell then this is the one. I love it, you will love it.

>>14811924
>Imaginary Author's Every Storm A Serenade
how about Acqua Di Gio? There's a very good deal on it on a site im on.

>>14811792
Unfortunately it got badly reformulated. Get yourself Les Liquides Imaginaires or Carner Barcelona if you want something close to old BA.
>>14811795
Based retard.
>>14811828
Tough question. But if you think mentol-ice then Carven L'eau Intense comes to my mind.

>>14811928
I dont think Acqua Di Gio smells like the ocean specifically. Its like if you took a small bucket full of ocean water, some oranges, bergamont, and italian herbs and spices then boiled the bucket the fumes would be what you would get from AdG but if the deal is very good then go for it. Its not a bad scent. But Serenade is the exact ocean smell.

>>14811962
thanks, I looked into serenade and it seems like a good cologne, just would rather pay $30 less for ADG. I also threw on a Silver Water Moutain sampler to see how that goes. I bought Club De Nuit as my first cologne but smell seems to fade away after an hour; hopefully, my luck goes well with these.

>>14811973
Silver Mountain Water is awesome, fun fact it was Bowie's favorite. My suggestion would be to order a sample of AdG, A sample of SMW, and a sample of Serenade. Then see which one you like the most. Always get samples.

>>14811902
Perry Ellis 360

>>14811979
oops already purchased the AdG bottle + mountin water sampler ... =( o well

>>14812004
Its fine dont regret. You will love it because you bought it, enjoy it. AdG is a very safe and good fragrance. Its easily one of the best entry fragrances.

scale of 1-10, how retarded am I?

this is so good

>>14812062
What's the closest fragrance that smells like this?

>>14811828

Glacialis Terra. It's a bit heavy on the absynth though

>>14812082
Closest thing I own to it is Chanel Pour Monsieur. Chypre Palatin is much warmer and richer.

I was at a party and a sorority girl identified my Club de Nuit as Creed Aventus. Did I fuck up by saying it wasn't Creed?

>>14812208
Depends on the person you want to be. A liar getting more pussy or a honest person getting less pussy

>>14812208
You should have turned the music off at the party and announced to everyone that she was a noselet and that you were taking your ball and going home

how do you clean your decants? i want to put different frags in them but im worried they will get contaminated and want to know the best way to clean them and make sure that doesnt happen.

just blind bought a 30% full bottle of Lonestar Memories what am I in for

>>14808124
Today's scent is Paco Rabane Pure XS Night. It's strongest note is caramel by far and is not that bad.
Would not buy, though. Only have it because it came with a bottle i bought.

>>14812208

Girls are noselets more news at 11. Do you understand why your special batches are a waste of money yet aventus fags

>>14812295
Ah, well then 1. The whole line is fairly decent, actually, though I’ve only copped Tuxedo thus far. Vinyle is like a better Akkad IMO.

>>14812390
I bet you wouldn’t talk to a doctor, or a scientist, or an engineer like that. Don’t talk to a genius like me that way either, pleb.

My first frag was Drakkar Noir when my deadbeat gifted it to me when I was 11 or something. I dug it out when I hit 9th grade to try and get laid, but the school was an inner city shithole that had metal detectors, and they saw the shape of the bottle. They didn't allow frags because supposedly you could break the bottle and use the shards as a weapon. I was supposed to come back for it but I never did. I wonder if the security guard was doing me a favor and didn't want me to smell like a boomer.

Okay zoomer

Alright which one of you wrote this?

>>14811700
Not really. They’re not too similar. ADP is better in almost every way

I know there are a bunch of Japanese inspired frags like Issey Miyake, Kyoto, L'eau par Kenzo etc but what of some Chinese inspired frags?

Starting to come around to this.
But is it an EDP? I found one online seller selling it as an EDP but I was sure it was EDT.

Anyone else have tried it?

Hello guys can anyone reccomend me a nice lovely fragance for the january and februray months particulary for an art student? nothing to boistorous.

I feel like if I wear a manly smell it does not reflect my boyish nature?
Anything that smells young free and reflects the 'in lots of student debt' would be optimal...maybe a smokey drop back with notes of stoicism too if I might add.

This week I made 9 perfume sprays out of perfume oils. Tested a couple today, they're ready to use and for under 10$ for a 50ml bottle. Why are you still buying 100$ bottles?

Probably you yourself. Here’s your (you)

Any Noir De Noir fans here? I’ve always said it’s too feminine but I love it so much. Are there any fragrances you adore but will never buy? And I don’t just mean because it’s too expensive.

>>14812994
Quite snice. Whatever fits your budget. I see there APO’s BdC what are the other oils? I’m a bit skeptical about your ratio oil:alcohol as it seems that the oils are 3ml and will be extremely diluted. Look up the wiki in sticky. The recommended ratio is around 1:4. You shouldn’t be suggested by EDT concentrations as oils have many other fixatives etc other than essential oil in them

Going on a date lads wish me luck, will be wearing Black Phantom

>>14811784
BASED

>>14813100
Yup, APO's BdC, the EdT, I thought it was the Parfum, so I'll give it away for christmas. The others are not by any particular order: TF Black Orchid, NdN, Mandarino, White Suede, Noir, Neroli Portofino and Amouage Reflection, Interlude.

The oils are 6ml, bottles are 30ml, the concentration is 20%, I found that to be good enough.

>>14812310

Spices, smoke

>>14812774
It’s awesome just cop 5ml

>>14813116
Ah fine then you said 50ml. You should be fine with 6:24 ratio. The sad thing is that many oils are a miss for me. There are some absolute stunners from APO though. TFOW and TFTL are 95% on point and I can’t tell a difference between them and original. Then there are some that smell just cheap and wildly different. I’ve tried over 50 of their samples I think already

>>14813218
Sample bro! I got 30 of them. This is the christmas order, I got into this in September and my father wanted me to give them as gifts to the senpai. I went with Perfume Parlour's. Honestly, good or not, most of these are not easily available in any store, and since they're so expensive, people don't buy them, thus it's sure to be a scent that both the senpai and the people around them won't recognise.

Have you tried Universal Perfumes? They're known to be the best in the game, especially the Luzi oils. Expensive, especially the Luzi ones, but if you buy the 12 packs and use the code UNI30, they become the cheapest (non luzi).

>>14813220
Yes, I was playing with oils for long time. In general avoid anything but APO and Universal. Perfume Parlour and the rest is couple levels below in terms of quality and perfromance.

As I said, I was really impressed with APO's Tom Fords, some Amouages and Rojas. Their Amber Aoud, Aoud and DIaghilev is almost undistinguishable from originals. Then some other things are just hit&miss but AdP Leather, Green Irish Tweed, YSL Tuxedo, CdG 2 & Floriental, Black Afgano, Montale Wild Pears & Honey Oud, Guerlain Santal Royal & Neroli Outrenoir, By Kilian Black Oud & Sacred Oud are all really good and close to originals. Performance is sometimes an issue (especially when diluted in alcohol) but for this pricetag you can just reapply it when you feel like it.

>>14813220
>>14813242
And what did you try from APO?

>>14813242
>>14813243
I have actually tried a LOT from both APO and PP. I have not had any bad experiences with PP thus far, especially after waiting a couple of weeks, the oils are alright. Especially for the price, I don't mind.

Regarding performance, I have been using a 20% concentration Aventus Creed from APO and it lasts. I remember using it one day and two days later the clothes still reeked of it (in a good way). Anyway, this week I'm going to get a Uni order, I'll see what's up with them. Btw, I have been building a wiki for everything perfume oils, maybe you'd like to contribute? perfumeoils.miraheze dot org. Open source, hosted on a non-profit company, no ref links, just pure info.

>>14813247
Forgot the pic

So, just a follow up to a post I made many threads ago:

I ordered a sex doll (pic related) and wanted to get some perfumes for her that would complete the experience. Alcohol will straight out melt the material these dolls are made out of, so I started looking into knockoff oil perfumes, both because they're cheaper and because they should be safer for the doll to use.

The thread I was in before mentioned not to try the oil perfumes, but I did anyways. I put an order of 13 1ml bottles of various feminine-ish perfumes from APO, and so far I really am glad I did this. They weren't all winners, and I knew they wouldn't be -- Musk Rose and Baccarat Rouge 540 were absolutely disgusting to my nose -- but there were some great standouts. Do Son and Coco Mademoiselle smell just like what I thought I wanted, girly, fresh, a bit sophisticated, but active and energetic. Ambre Sultan blew me away with just how fucking COMFY it was, and I'm honestly considering buying a bottle of that on my next order just for personal use because goddamn that is maximum overcomf. And Boadicea's Empire... that, let me tell you, that makes my peepee the big peepee. That shit just drives me wild.

Preliminary tests indicate that the oil perfumes are safe to use with the TPE material dolls are made out of, too, which is good. My doll isn't here yet (tracking info says she arrives Wednesday), but I have a sex toy made of the same material and putting a liberal application of oil on it did absolute bupkis to the material. I'll repeat the test on my doll when she gets here, and if I get the same result I intend to put another order out, probably from APO, with a bigger bottle of Empire and Ambre Sultan, and a bunch more 1ml samples to try.

>>14813251
What feminine-smelling scents would folks recommend I sample? So far I've tried APO versions of the following:

Empire by Boadicea (10/10)
Do Son by Diptyque (9/10)
Coco Mademoiselle by Chanel (8.5/10)
Ambre Sultan by Serge Lutens (9/10)
Ambre Nuit by Christian Dior (8/10)
Chance Eau Fraiche by Chanel (7/10)
No. 22 by Chanel (5/10)
White Suede by Tom Ford (8/10 until it overloads my nostrils and then 1/10)
Highness Rose by Montale (6/10)
Musk Rose by Montale (3/10)
Angel by Thierry Mugler (7/10)
Baccarat Rouge by MFK (1/10)

>>14813247
>>14813249

Well, I haven't created a database for how good each oil is, since there really isn't a way to do that other than by hand for every perfume. Right now, you can just review the stores.

>>14813252
Are you going for 20yo girl or something more sophisticated? I hated Eau Fraiche and loved White Suede, so our noses might differ. Nonetheless, you NEED to buy their Givenchy L'interdit. It's floral but sweet, girly but fancy, the type of perfume you give to a girl that just entered the workforce. If you like roses, TF Noir de Noir is a popular choice among women as well (it's a unisex fragrance)

>>14813257
The fuck is a catposter?

>>14813260
Nah. My life is better now than it was a year ago, and I expect it'll be better next year than it is now.

>>14813261
I just wrote it, so, no.

>>14813262
I liked the APO White Suede I got a lot, until it, for lack of a better term, overloaded my sinuses. If I put my nose in it and hold for 2 seconds, the first two seconds is very pleasant and I love it, but after that it's like my smell receptor for something fills up and it spills over to something else and I get slammed in the face by something I can only describe with the word "ashtray". Given that half the point is to cuddle with the doll to sleep, not being able to put my nose into her scent is pretty much a straight out disqualifying factor, sadly.

I am primarily looking for 20yo girl though, yeah. But I'm open to trying anything, considering how cheap these things are.

I will look into Givenchy L'interdit, that does sound good. And I had Noir de Noir on my list, but APO is currently sold out of it, so I couldn't order it. I've heard good things, yeah.

>>14813265
My gf who actually is 22 loved the L'interdit. She has used Chanel Chance Eau Tendre, La Perla Divina, Givenchy Play for Her, and now she wants this one (already coming to me via Universal). I tested it at my local Sephora, it's a fantastic release. I would advise you to try other Chance releases, I've worked with Chanel in the past, that line is the "gateway drug" to the brand.

where did you get the bottles and oils

>>14813296
Bottles came from aliexpress. The glass work is ok, the paint not that much, as well as the plastics. I paid about €2 per bottle, I wasn't expecting a good replica of the original anyway. Looks nice nonetheless imo.

Oils came from Perfume Parlour and Arabian Perfume Oil. If you're looking to start, APO offers 1ml bottles for £1, perfect if you want to start and see how good these are.

>>14813322
Thank you!

>>14813322
Could you give me the name of that seller or what do I have to search to get refillable bottles of popular fragrances--I only see a bunch of plastic bottles.

>>14813408
They're not easy to find, I agree. For example, I can't find Tom Ford ones, only Black Orchid. The Sauvage ones - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32944928345.html . This isn't the listing I bought from, I got 12 for ~20€. What I 100% advise you to do is to take a photo of the bottle you want and use image search, it's the best way to find all the listings.
