I asked last thread but it was pretty close to bump limit.
Is there anything wrong with me using Dior Homme Eau as a date/casual frag round my gf?
Meeting her for the first time next month for her birthday, I feel since she's a logical bookish girl that she wouldn't be best pleased if I was dripping in Gucci Guilty or something like that.

>>14877429
no die

Review anon here. Confirming whether or not I’ve got plans going out tonight before I spray on trex. It smells like slaughtered animals and it’s a little too hard of a sell to normie friends

>>14877434
Ultimately just go with whatever you're most confident in, because that'll be most important. Personally I'd go for an ol' reliable for a first date, i.e. Bleu de Chanel. Women are simple creatures.

Share what you've bought in 2019 anons.

What's the consensus on Quorum?

Is it better than Yatagan?

I was just passing by this store that has all the alternative type of Fragrance and i tried the entire replica line by Maison Margiela and i actually liked whispers in the library, is it actually good or am I getting tricked by clever marketing ? the sales assistant also recommended me bibliothèque by byredo, can i get any recomendation ? My current fragrance are dior homme sport and l'homme idéal de guerlain

Whatever cologne I can get at any gas station is good enough for me.

did the other anon cinemaniac get shipped today? I ordered Dec 11th, and just got the text it shipped.

New thread was made at 306, m8.

Zoologist Trex review video is up if anyone wants to see it. The fragrance is an absolute monster the strongest I have ever tried. It’s stronger than honey apud my whole place smells of burnt lizard from one spray. It’s the true vision of zoologist. This and bat are they most pure zoologist of the line, encompassing the life and death of the animal. Only a man among men can wear it only alphas need apply I couldn’t pull this off. It is loud, unbelievable, and unforgiving. Smell it if you ever get the chance this is what nasomatto duro wanted to be. Aggressive mean masculinity, hard, abusive, drunk malice.

>>14877730
T Rex is amazing but utterly unwearable to me. It’s not a matter of needing to be alpha enough, it just isn’t anything people will find pleasant. Simple as. But it doesn’t need to be, it fits the “wearable art” concept of Zoologist. Just very interesting stuff. Might cop one day, but I don’t see it getting much use.

Liquid faggot*

Asked last thread but no one >pls responded. Gonna get an MDCI sample set. Aside from CP, which should I get? Already tried IB. Like it, but not enough for a full bottle I don’t think. Some of the women’s scents look interesting, particularly the “Asian-inspired” ones. How feminine are they? Fairly unisex or will I smell 100% homo?

>>14877812
What’s wrong? Faggot?! FAAAAAAAGGOT!!!

>>14877730
Wtf, the zoologist chink commented on the video. Does he lurk here?

>>14877730
Honestly very solid review. I’m seriously considering co-ping T Rex now. I have sampled it before, I know it’s basically unwearable, but I kind of want to own it. Also might be kinda fun for Halloween parties or something. Or just in general when you just want to fuck with people for a bit of fun.

>>14877543
The line is decent in general, but a bit gimmicky
Jazz club is one of the only ones I'd consider worth buying a full bottle, but I sold mine after it stained a white shirt of mine with coloring

>>14877979
>Also might be kinda fun for Halloween parties or something. Or just in general when you just want to fuck with people for a bit of fun.
Could be interesting. I am seriously considering buying Secretions Magnifiques for that same niche.

Does anyone have any scents similar to this? I'm
ready to move out entry level and really step the game up

are deodorants like this worth getting or are they a meme?

>>14878100
They are much better than drugstore Old Spice $5 deodorant sticks anon, not a meme. Take the plunge, spend that extra $30.

>>14877865
Yes #1

>>14877851
Thank u for posting this each and every thread. I love you

What are some mass appeal male edps which would be a good choice for gifting? Maybe something on the slightly less common side? (No bdc, sauvage, le male)
I try to avoid this as much as possible so I don’t even know what most people would be happy with.

Also, thoughts on explorer?

>>14878236
Just go BdC. It's likely not as popular as Sauvage and Chanel is somewhat more exclusive. You say you want to avoid those frags but those are the ones that normies want.

>>14878236
I am wearing Dior Homme Eau right now and it might be decent for what you're looking for.

>>14878238
Oops I mean the person already had these frags so something mass appealing but still slightly less common would be good.

What frag would suit the feeling that someplace in Italy like Venice or Sicily would give off?
My only "venture" into this sorta thing is Mandorino di Amalfi, and i adore it, if only it was a little cheaper for the longevity I get.... Stuff like ADG doesn't really count imo

>>14878316
I've tried out the Le Male and it doesn't smell like 'Italy' but rather like something people IN Italty would be wearing, if that makes sense

>>14878332
I sorta see what you mean with the kinda vibe, like modern day Yuppies wearing Santal 33 and Aventus?

>>14877816
>>14877830
>>14877847
MDCI anon here, I've been traveling a lot for Christmas so didn't see your posts. Get CP, IB, Fetes Persanes for sure young king. Cuir Garamante seems to be another popular choice but I've never tested it because on paper it seems like something from MFK. Actually I know some women frags from MDCI as I wanted to buy one for my gf for Christmas. Peche Cardinal is fucking goat and if not turberose I would sample it myself. Promesse de l'Aube is good (and loved by LT) and can be used by a men if you're not afraid of white florals. Un Coeur en Mai is quite unisex if you're into bitter greenness.

>>14877870
It depends on how do I feel like but between 3-12. I apply it behind my ears and on my wrist. If I feel extra then on back of my knees on top of that.

>>14878236
i love explorer, its a great fresh scent. one of my best buys.

>>14878066
well, bdc is pretty sweet but its not really 1mil
ive heard spicebomb gets close to 1mil

>>14877870
2-4 depending on the perfume and occasion. directly on the chest, then rub a bit on my wrists.

>>14878316
Try the Aqua di Parma range

>>14878382
speaking about the acqua di parmas, if you're getting 'di Gio', get the parfume and not the original. the original lasts literally 2-3 hours

>>14877405
Bump, looking for some ideas

>>14878388
Not sure if you're getting mixed up or not but Aqua di Parma is an individual brand. Aqua di Gio is an Armani product.

They're two different things.

Not sure what to get next?

>>14878529
The founder is a piece of shit racist that said mean things about niggers

What’s a good alternative to Dior homme cologne when it’s a little cooler out? You know something just as mouthwatering but maybe a little warmer with some spice or something?

>>14877764
The intense is quite a bit cheaper and not offensive. I personally like it but could understand if somebody says it's basic or boring. To me I get whiffs of wet road and like a clean man muskiness (not musk - like "good smelling b.o") sometimes. Regardless of what else you have it would be an easy frag to burn through if you don't want to wear anything more costly that isn't a fresh shower scent. It's honestly nice. More masculine than PH so if you want a deeper, spicey leaning rather than outright yuzu it's a safe blind buy.

>>14878354
Thanks. I’ll take a look at those and see what I think.

Trex smells like the burning mound of dead Uruk hai in LOTR two towers. Aragorn and company just come up to this 200 body stack that the rohirim just wasted and set ablaze.

Out of the 80s meme scents like Kouros, Anateus, Cool Water, Fahrenheit, and ect which, if any, haven't lost anything worthwhile in reformulations versus a vintage offering?

>>14878762
If you're a sperg, all of them have been completely neutered. However, I love current versions of Kouros, Cool Water, and Fahrenheit.

>>14878807
I originally posted about the canvas and concrete. I’m the review anon and I’ve worked to re-establish credibility on this board. It works but nothing profound. I said you can expect a 20% increase in performance. It’s basically repackaged liquid bandage if you’ve ever used it. Keeps your skin from absorbing the fragrance. Holds top notes longer and improves longevity some. Like I said about 20% so expectation management here. I got 100ml offered for 20 bucks so I said sure I’ll try it as an experiment. I only use it for my expensive frags. It improves zoologist because it’s base notes are all the animalic aspects of it so holding the top notes keeps it more friendly. The primer helps keep it linear. I have noticed if you want to improve projection spraying ISO-E on your application point helps. These are just my findings and personal anecdotes though so your mileage may vary.

A true German philosopher.

>>14877389
Why do niche perfumes cost so much damn it

>>14878316
Tom Fords Amalfi Coast line do a pretty good job in smelling like the two sicilies. Personally I just buy a €20 clone of neroli portofini and will buy mandarino di amalfi when I have the opportunity. Acqua di Parma’s Blu Mediterraneo line also follows the same idea, although I have heard that some of them are not very summery.
Venice would smell quite different. Not citrusy, but still aquatic with a slight fecal note.

I think I gotta take a break from posting here, bros. Last night I had a dream my neighbor had a bottle of Norne in his bathroom. And while trying to sneak a spray of it I ended up shattering it on the ground.

Fougeres aren’t panty droppers

>>14879160
Cmon, everyone loves spores

>>14879157
It will help. But if you’re expecting night and day you won’t get it. Depends how much 20 bucks is worth to you. If I knew what I know now I would still buy it. To me the 20% and improved clarity is worth it. I would suggest forgetting/memory holing la nuit and move on to something else though. It lasted maybe 45 minutes on me. Try Armani code Profumo (not regular code, code Profumo), I’m the only one who shills it here but for mainstream designer “pantry dropper” it’s pretty good. Unironcally has gotten me compliments

They just de-odorize. You'll still sweat bullets and get pit stains.

Matching aftershave lotions and balms don't provide much benefits either. Unless you mix them with witch hazel, that is.

Go with a good unscented.

>>14879319
Unscented basically doesn’t work.

This is the best of them, but it’s only slightly better than wearing nothing.

>>14879243
The “daddy” smell only helps if you have the appearance to back it up. If you are congruent. If you’re a string bean sperg wearing kouros it will work against you.

Wtf I love Guerlain now

>>14879432
Mr Guerlain, now retired, caused offence during a TV interview in October 2010 in which he was asked to explain how he created the Samsara perfume.

“For once, I set to work like a Negro. I don’t know if Negroes have always worked like that, but anyway,” he replied.

Mr Guerlain, who claims to be able to identify 3,000 different fragrances, took over the family perfume house from his grandfather, Jacques, in 1959.

He is considered one of the great perfume “noses” of the 20th century, concocting famous scents including Samsara, Nahema and Jardins de Bagatelle.

The perfume house remained in the Guerlain family for five generations and has created over 300 fragrances since Pierre Francois Pascal Guerlain, a doctor and chemist, opened his first perfume boutique in Paris 183 years ago.

>>14879455

I’m the one who said hot shit baking on a stone. That’s literally what hycacium (however it’s spelled is). The hyrax takes a shit in the same spot every day like clockwork. The sun bakes the shit into the stone. I give absolutely as much credit as I can to zoologist frags, but when I say hyrax blew my fucking olfactory system out I’m not kidding. It was unbearable and wafts shilled me into getting a sample. I intend to do a review of every zoologist eventually but I’m dreading smelling that fucking hyrax again. I can lounge around in trex, I had to scrub hyrax after 10 minutes. Don’t waste your money if you even have a hint of doubt just avoid it. Sorry guys I’m drunk I wore a sample of “Suma oriental” out.

>>14880180
Go to Sephora or the like and sniff around with the testers available, and/or ask for samples (Sephora lets you have 3 for free). Also those common designer ones are common for a reason. People in general will like those, meaning you will too. You can go full autism with $1,500 diarrhea essence after you get your feet wet. Personally I just blind bought cheapies that had notes that sounded nice and that worked out fine.

I’m a bit biased towards Fahrenheit since it’s my all time favorite frag, but to me it’s a perfect representation of the 90s aesthetically, particularly a summer day where you can hear insects everywhere and smell the sun beating down on the pool equipment containers or sheds releasing that almost BO ozonic smell, as the smell of fresh cut grass and lawnmower fuel mixes in with florals and burnt, tarry woods, a campfire or something in the distance. It’s the best shit ever.

roja elysium- lemon pledge+gin hard pass
nishane hacivat- i might like this one, will try later. Synthetic opening has me not wanting to come back tho.
nishane ambra calibra- very green scent, like cut aloe or when you rub plant leaves together or something. Not horrible, Ill try it again later, but not what I'm looking for. It smells familiar, like some type of soap or bodywash something Ive smelled before. This one might be ok to wear for me after the super green opening.
montale intense cafe- i cant even get over the opening, disgusting. rose+ coffee thats come back up in your throat after burping. Quite the mistake on my part.
moth and rabbit single man- bought it for the memes to see how a faggot smells, its ok, i actually put it on enough to see how it did, and I like 75% of whats going on in here, the style perhaps? but theres some sharp note that stands out to me, (maybe oakmoss looking at fragrantica? im a noselet) that keeps me from buying a bottle. It smells a bit like that sharp note in liquor or something. Not horrible, compared to whats coming, but it didnt scream at me to buy it.
MPG ambre precieux- this one has grown a bit more on me the powder is toned down but its total grandma. Ill try it again later.
MPG ambra calibra and profuma anbra aura inspired the silkwood shower. This stuff is fucking disgusting, Ive come back to it this morning, I can still smell it on me from last night and its offensive.
Most of all of these amber/gris scents are very disturbing to me. I thought I liked it after coping some Dior amber nuit, which I didnt like at first scent, but it super grew on me quick and I want a big bottle now.
I have noticed for years now a scent I get around older women in stores. I refer to this as "pussy powder" smell. I thought it was the smell of depends, or some type of feminine covering scent for lady parts. Id have to hold my nose walking by, its old lady.

>>14880500
Based mild stroke poster, thanks for the reviews

>>14880500
Come to find out, there is a chemical that you produce after 40 that does smell like old people. All the MPG and amber scents had this, maybe Ive found the absolutely rank scent Ive just thought was incontinent old women. Mybe that is what amber smells like. Ive decided most perfume smells like shit, all of these samples smelled fucking rank. I didnt like many of the scents at the department store either, Sauvage is very offensive fake smell at opening, horribly synthetic and cheap smelling, scratchy peppery lavender accord as its heart note that dominates the majority of its life on my skin before i have to scrub it off. all the ysl homme line didnt appeal to me except Y parfum which was my favorite of 20-30 scents at the dept store. 1 million smells like shit as well, I am really having a hard time reading all these glowing reviews, and then actually smelling them. This hobby/community is probably not something I can get very far into. Which is unfortunate, because I like nice smelling things and want to like what other people like, and experience the same joy they do. Seriously, Tuxedo, hombre leather and Amber nuit are the only ones that I would buy after trying dozens. Some of the blue scents are nice, but way overplayed and generic, and I totally understand the body wash aspect of fragrance now. Im not sure which direction to head off into in the frag world, maybe a sheep or something is what Im looking for. Thank you for reading, and I would gladly give these samples away if someone were actually retarded enough to post an addy here.

Got Dior Oud Ispahan yesterday, been feeling cute and offensive all day

>>14880522
That’s a lot of words to say you don’t like designer and want to be recommended some niche

>>14880177
Xyrena og kush

Is Fragranceview also releasing frags now? Did any of you see anything about it? He’s been posting about it on his Instagram.

>>14880559
I dont have the vocabulary or knowledge to fully express what I'm feeling in the perfume world, I'm very sorry. I thought I was getting the best of the niche world, all the samples I picked out had very positive reviews, and appeared on "the best" amber reviews, like on the kafka and perfume shrine sites. Im not really sure its a designer vs niche thing either, maybe im just too autist to like a plethora of smells. Im really over reviews also, its such a personal thing, scents, and this has solidified that idea in my head. Im soooo tired of "compliment beast" or "what this one random female im friends with thinks about perfume" videos I see on ytube also. I really dont care what you think, its on my body and its for my pleasure alone, not everyone else. Going around trying to please people is just revolting vs wearing something because it smells snice. I like that conservative frag queen that was posted a few weeks ago, the one that likes to offend liberal white women in movie theaters by wearing perfume. I identify more with that than with what "the in-crowd" likes. And I'm not one to wear funky stuff for the sole purpose of offense, or to get a reaction either. Many of the scents I strongly dislike do dry down to something more tolerable, but theyre just not for me I guess. I also would like a little discussion of nose blindness, how to recognize it, and discern it from the "performance" of a frag. I get that with ambre nuit very quickly, and its a real bummer, I love the scent, but I think I have worn it all week and Im used to it. I read amber scents were more prone to this than others, and am curious to hear what others think about nose blindness.

Sorry,guys I had to.Of course tested on my skin

>>14880338
Never going to try a YouTuber brand. These people rub me the wrong way and always have ulterior motives. I liked most of his channel/taste but haven't been back.
>>14880486
Don't finish them. Store them away somewhere to sniff later on in your journey again. This is like starting with the pro gear before you get good at something. Or ur a noselet lol kek scrub
>>14880587
You need to go try different houses/different notes and find stuff that speaks to you. There are thousands out there, you'll find something. Maybe give Diptyque a try?

Step aside, plebs.

>>14877405

Would also add Tom Ford Tobacco oud to my rotation if I were rich.

>>14877778
eros is shit bro

Would you rather have a very basic mall tier designer rotation of frags (The One, La Nuit, YSL L'homme etc) with a unique and flashy wardrobe, or would you rather dress very basic and safe but have a whole bunch of niche to liven up your otherwise simple clothing choices?

>>14880770
i mean i already do that so second option

>>14880770
Option b describes me perfectly. Wearing a white Hanes undershirt, blue 5”inseam running shorts, and wearing a cdg

>>14880794
Fuck this guy, I cough everytime I get close to a frag that's too loud. Most of the time it's female frag too

>>14880486
Unironically honey aoud is the best montale and although I’ve used it as a meme most times I’ve said it I’m being very honest. If it makes you feel better in jeremeys montale video it was his favorite too.

You don’t like anything because you’ve started too niche if you’re new (to second what another anon said). Start with Tom Ford private blend (it’s not niche but it’s a niche gateway drug), some Imaginary Authors (just not fucking garbage telegrama), and creed. Creed is also a niche gateway drug because despite fedoras on high horses saying it’s the best niche, it’s rather that it’s mass pleasing niche (generally speaking, some are exceptions)

Throw me some every day summer frags.

>>14880743
burberry london would be in my top 10 of all time if the performance was better. Three sprays and I could hardly smell it on myself after 2 hours. Also the trail note isn't as strong as it should be. Still an amazing scent if you're cuddling or close to someone.

>>14880816
its not about the particular scent, but about personal space and like he said, control. Don't like my smell? go away and get out of my personal space, problem solved. I probably dont like your face but you dont see making stupid theatrical gestures about it.
>>14880819
thank you, this is encouraging

>>14880177
How long does the Pino last?

Also, consider Lalique Encre Noire.

Do I cop a sample of Interlude? The heavy incense/amber combo sounds like it'd be right up my street but there's something stopping me from testing it out

>>14880842
Just get a 1-2ml sample. It will be more than enough. Not gonna lie I considered throwing it away after spraying and scrubbing it the first time. I’m very glad I kept it however. I really like the smell of the atomizer and I’ll get around to wearing it some day

What are you getting with xmas money, anons?
For me it'll be a 75ml of D&G PH for a winter/spring beater frag, a sample of Lyric Man/Oud Wood and the rest is going towards getting a pair of Gucci Aces.

Got some samples from Fragrantworldshop.com, really cool store for anyone in the EU for design and niche frags. They ship very professional and secure from Portugal.

I got 250$ what should I get?

>>14880886
Groceries for a month or two

>>14880794

La Nuit de L'Homme is still one of my favorites. Wish there was something similar with decent performance

>>14880988
I think its real, if you listen to the podcast, it is very memey and pushes things too far perhaps through the lens of one ideology in the hopes of laughs and entertainment. He is unusual in being a conservative faggot, its like a SA member was resurrected that loves fragrance. Not too horrible opinions either.

Few reviews for the new Dior Homme formulation on Fragrantica seem positive. Looking forward to trying it in the new year

>>14881002
I don’t totally hate him or his opinions on film/fragrances, but god damn is he a seething /pol/tard. He sounds like De Niro in Taxi Driver and has formed his worldview over reactionary journalism.

The dude clearly doesn’t have control or authority in his life if he has to act out by overspraying in theaters and the attributes his bad reactions to SJWs. It’s akin to not showering and passive aggressively making people deal with your stench.

>14880794 >be based and redpilled frag literal autist >acknowledge the theater is empty but sit in assigned seating anyway >start gassing out the people nearby with animal piss instead of my own musty clothing and bodily fluids like every other middle-functioning autist because I took the chad miasma memes literally >get offended when called out >sit in the theatre thinking about shit I wished I said the whole time >can't adequately disguise my own butthurt when I blog about it later crying about how gassing out people already in the theater when I sat down were the ones invading my space >also start crying about the libs because my other autistic special subject is online fringe politics Brave AND powerful.

Sorry I mentioned it, please get back to your trex and xyrena thread, thats so much better.

Kinda hate that my autism is making me really eager to seek out what’s probably gonna be something I’ve smelled 100 times before

>>14881078
NOOOOOOOOOOOO YOU CANT JUST TALK ABOUT PERFUME I DONT LIKE. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

>>14881083
Same, I was never overly fussed about the original compared to some people but I hope they haven't followed the Sauvage route for mass-appeal too much.

>not smellmogging everyone within a 10 yard radius with your favorite civet frag

NGMI

>>14881098
xyrena bases their entire business model after tranny degenerates, truly a /pol/ brand, and please find me one person that would wear trex anywhere. Wearing burnt lizard is truly the passive aggressive behavior vs. wearing some floral women's perfume to a theatre. But im not going to get into that review, and how it differs from some of the more "seasoned" ytube veteran shills.

>>14881114
AHHHHHHHHHHHH HELP MEEEE THEY LIKE SMELLS I DONT LIKE AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

>>14881118
Occasionally, youll find one brave soul that admits to liking smelling their own farts, but really, can you say someone really enjoys that scent enough to purchase it for anything other than the meme value? Im not sure about that.

>>14881049
I don’t know if I’m convinced people have really smelled this yet. No one has said where they found it and there’s still no information on Dior’s site

>>14881078
Interesting you'd choose to bitch about niche in response when wearing something like T-rex around would show as much disregard for other people as bathing in a women's frag before sitting next to somebody in a theatre (I didn't even touch on the bit where he acted more camp to avoid further confrontation before seething the rest of the film).

The only reason why you fags ride this cowardly bitch-bois dick is because he is le redpilled like me XD, but he appears to live his values about as much as he has a spine- doesn't at all.

>>14881149
He was living his values when he sprayed it on before leaving, and he was also living his values when he refrained from commenting. Chimping out in a theater is never in fashion. Hes opinionated, and I appreciate the honesty, but he'd be the one riding my dick in your fantasy situation.

>>14881149
Y’all are annoying me but the second paragraph is the truth

>>14881195
maybe you can tell us what his values exactly are, instead of deploying your strawman instead. Be specific please, and maybe show some examples?

>>14881198
Listen to his podcast. Read his blog. It’s not hard to figure out the type of person he is

I’m not taking up the time to right an essay for your autistic dumb ass

>>14881177
Overspraying a women's frag would be an alpha move if he didn't immediately bitch out of the inevitable confrontation by doing a little light Mr Humphries roleplay before spending the rest of the film replaying the scenario wishing he'd said something. It's not about avoiding confrontation but asserting his deliberate decision to be obnoxious. He's an alpha at home in front of the mirror or keyboard but a omega cuck in public.
>in your fantasy situation
Crippling autism must be another thing you have in common. When I wrote "dickriding" I did not mean you are literally on his dick.

>>14880539
Did you buy a current bottle? How is the preformance?

>>14880834
3 hrs on clothes

>>14881308
>3 hrs on clothes
oof
and to think that somebody has been shilling it, pretty sure it's quorumnigger

>>14881319
Yeah
Smells kinda like some kind of bugspray too.

Like Aqua Brava but more herbs and lemon
if anybody has ever smelled that one.

>>14881319
I don't have the original Quorum but I was shilling Pino pretty hard during the summer. It's a nice summer Italian barbershoppy cologne, it's not meant to last a long time. The main draw is the mentholated/eucalyptus feeling it gives on freshly shaved skin, hence it being a literal barbershop scent. If you want beastmode conifer try Drakkar Noir or overspray Yatagan

>>14881319
Quorom's alright.
If it didn't smell so "barbershop-y" tho.

Cutest things ever. Giving these minis as stocking stuffers for Mom and Sisters.

75ml bottle for scale.

I like coromandel a lot more than I thought I would. It isnt as sweet as I expected and has a awesome, bright, citrus opening. The patchouli is vibrant green.

1957 is a little mainstream but smells great, exactly what I would like to smell on a girl in her 20s. Super well blended, cant really pick out notes. Floral with a clean, musky touch.

N22 is my least favorite. Mature white floral with a powdery nuance from the iris. Still has a sparkly, aldehydic DNA though, I think my mom will like it.

Also grabbed samples of Cuir de Russie and Bois des Iles for myself. Not in these bottles.

Bois des Iles has a strong baby powder and citrus opening that im not crazy about. The woody mid with a hint of vanilla/tonka is really nice. The powdery-ness and weak performance havent sold me. I want to try egoist.

Cuir de Russie likewise starts a bit powdery on me for some reason, and there is a little funk I cant pinpoint, but I like it. It isn't super leathery to my nose. Its like a suede waller rather than a leather jacket. The deep dry down seemed clean and floral on me, which is something I actually love about Sycomore - smelling it on clothes the next day is awesome. Weak performing but the one I can most see myself wearing.

>>14881147
I can believe it. People can usually find pre release of things through perks or error.
New bottle looks like a big downgrade.

>>14880587

People like you who believe there is some tier list make me laugh. Cheapies < Designers < Massage < Niche

>>14881430
i was looking for amber/gris scents as I wanted to explore the range of them. I picked out a soliflore, a green one, and a more floral one. As I had sampled many designer scents in store, I was also looking for something more than they were offering. Moving up a tier makes sense, no?

right now there are probably only 3-4 niche brands producing perfumes with wearable and unique smell that are full bottle worthy because of their quality/price ratio. anything more than £2/ml it's a fucking scam

list em, bitch

>>14881583
im not worried about cost, im looking for the experience. Im too new to be some kind of genre or niche snob, but I know scents from Target dont smell as good as from Neiman Marcus. This whole frag thing is a scam, they are selling ephemeral dreams in a bottle. But some do smell good, and I would just like a half dozen or so I could grab without thinking. The whole $300 bottle thing obsession Im really not interested in. I would like to learn some of the notes, or chemicals used so I can learn to identify which frags smell good to me. 50% of the population is anosmiacs to certain chemicals, they simply cant smell them. So how are we to trust any of these reviews when taste is personal and subjective? You can't and shouldn't, I have found.

Can we put an end to the myth that people only wear fragrance for themselves? 100% of people wearing perfume want other people to smell it and spray it to that other people will smell them

What are your thoughts on Chanel Egoiste?

>>14881647
wrong, i would have just blind bought some top 10 list, but here we are with me smelling like whale shit and lemon pledge

>>14881647
Stop projecting

>>14881662
Do you wear it in public or wear enough that other people can smell it?

>>14881673
Not him, but I have many frags I only wear at home because they’re “challenging”, and I’m not autistic enough to go out smelling like ferret piss and burnt wood.

So that kinda fucks your theory right there.

>>14881669
I can’t. I’m wearing interlude

>>14881583
Like whom?

>>14881669
Not projecting. If there are certain scents you like, and it’s just for yourself, there’s no reason for them to exist outside of a tiny little private box in your home.

>>14881679
I should have specified I’m talking about publicly wearing fragrance

>>14881673
Scents are personal, and I'm self employed and not around the general public, so while I do douse myself, it is for myself. You've set up this 100% standard that is easy for you weasel ass to argue around tho, so you dont really seem like youre trying to make a sincere post, just condescending and petty.
>>14881687
tell that to the aventus crowd plz

>>14881691
Well, I would argue that that’s moving the goalposts a bit, but that aside, I see it as another form of fashion. People view fashion differently. Some people do wear clothes to impress others, many wear what they like and don’t care what others think. I think fragrance must logically be the same, then. Some wear fragrances they think others will like, some wear what they like. You really can’t make a blanket statement one way or another.

>>14881647
>>14881647
It's complicated, I think you could make an analogy to a lot of things... fashion, exercise/sports, music...

Take music for example. Most of us listen to certain music because we enjoy it, because it revives memories, because its self expressive, etc. Most of use dont listen to the music that we do in order to please other. However, it feels good when somebody enjoys the same music, or compliments your taste.

I'd never wear a fragrance JUST because I think other people will like it. I wear a fragrance because I like it, because its self expressive, etc. But, if the people around me like it, it feels good... its a compliment like any other.

Furthermore, it feels best to be complimented on authentic, personal things. I would much rather receive a single compliment on an obscure scent that I hand picked for myself than 100 compliments on sephoras best seller.

>>14881717
No idea why y’all keep talking about top 10 complement getters. I never said anything about that.

>>14881732
>the one thing you took from that

>>14881717
This. A compliment has meaning because it’s someone saying they appreciate something about you. Getting a compliment on something you don’t like and only wear because you think it’ll get you compliments is meaningless because it’s disingenuous. Wearing a frag solely for compliments is a hollow affectation.

>>14881743
for example. a (you) followed by a "this." is a meaningful compliment.

>>14881732
its probably just referencing all the videos/reviews that deal with other peoples opinions about what smells good or is popular. Its people thinking that, "I sound like a johnny depp sauvage type of guy, girls like that, Ill get massive puss" thought process that goes with much of the frag community. Doing something others perceive as good and proper, wearing scents for others approval. Some of those people really do fit into your 100% standard perhaps, but I dont think theres many that wear a personally unpleasant scent for long, just for others approval.

>>14881743
I never said anything about only wearing pleasing scents for the masses so you get compliments.

I’m saying wearing fragrance publicly is about presenting yourself a certain way to the people around you. Fashion as a whole is the same, and your lying to yourself if you truly believe you only dress a certain way just for yourself.

Someone above likened it to music, but the equivalent would be carrying around a speaker everywhere you go so that everyone hears your music when you pass by.

>>14881739
Nothing else you said was against my point.

>>14881766
For me, it's Toy-Boy, the best scent

>>14881766
So what’s your point then? That everyone should be wearing nothing but baggy, shapeless, grey clothes because anything else means they’re insecure and trying to impress others? I think you just wanted to troll people and got called on it and now you’re dug in too deep and are just throwing shit at the wall in the hopes that something will stick.

>>14881780
My point is exactly what I said from the beginning

>>14881786
it sounded like a personal declaration of opinion, not really much of a point. What were you trying to convey with this "point," maybe being less cryptic would help us argue incessantly with you and stroke your ego, is that the point?

I wear Guerlain Vetiver pretty regularly. I think it's a zingy citrus heavy vetiver that smells fresh and soapy, others dislike it as being a bit more mature though, not sure if that's a difference in noses, tastes or just baggage from it being around so long.
Haven't tried it yet but Mugler Cologne gets rated pretty highly as a soapy freshie. Might try and cop a decant, couldn't find it smaller than 300mL bottles.
I'm about to cop Diptyque Philosykos, maybe in any potential boxing day sales, very green, very fresh.
