Based OP. Can’t wait for my bottle to arrive.

Anyone ever drink their cologne?

>>15545054
Fuck that is sexy bottle

I’m obsessed with this lately, bought it a week ago

le labo is the essence of everything that's wrong with modern american perfumery

BLOODY VAGINAL BELCH?

what do you do if your gf has shit taste?
my last gf wore avignon
i worry my future gf won't be as based

>>15545215
You buy her based shit

I think I'm addicted to oud bros

>>15545116
>can't sample le lesbo because their stuff is "freshly bottled and blended at the point of sale"

...the fuck?

>>15545215
you show her or buy her the based stuff, einstein

>>15545054
That's a really nice looking bottle

Mysore Sandal soap is B A S E D

>>15545236
It's yet another marketing gimmick of Le Labo. Can you imagine leaving blending scent in hands of 20-something ex-Starbucks baristas? The expire date is yet another. All to give middle class target some illusion of buying precious apothekary goods.

What's a good, entry level fragrance brand to explore? I use Polo Blue currently but want to explore more

SOTD: Sel de Vetiver. It's accomplishing precisely what it says, it smells of Vetiver and Salt. Snice smelling and unusual vetiver frag. What are you wearing lads?

>>15545623
I would say that >>15545056 give you quite a good overview of what is possible in modern perfumery. What is your budget? Overall I think Atelier Cologne, Acqua di Parma and Tom Ford are good entry level. The first two do many amazing citrus scents and the other is a bit more experimental. Acqua di Parma is the cheapest of three. If you need something even more affordable let us know. Cartier, Lalique are consistently pulling of great cheapies. You might also want to look at the list from OP

>>15545635
Guerlain Vetiver. I had a meeting with my boss a few hours ago so I had to dress up a bit with a shirt. The fragrance kinda comes with it since it's my usual office scent and it's been a while since I physically went to work.

>>15545342
Frosted glass (or whatever the right term is for that) isn’t used nearly enough in perfume bottles

>>15545635
L'Artisan Parfumeur Tea for Two, my favorite autumn scent right now. I'll have to get a bottle soon

>>15545699
Do you have any other tea frags you like other than that? I've been wanting to explore the scent.

>>15545706
Not really in the same style, no. I have tried Floraïku One Umbrella For Two (which is more of a black currant pastry with a little tea), Margiela Under the Lemon Tree (which has a base of green tea) and Voyage d'Hermes where I don't get much tea at all.

Tea for Two is a smoky tea, if you've ever had lapsang tea then you know kinda what you're getting.

>>15545645
> Tom Ford ia a good entry level and a bit experimental
I almost piss myself. Please give more advice here.

>>15545726
Have you tried Bvlgari Pour Homme/Extreme? Someone was shilling it in the past thread and it's got my attention as well. I've tried the Margiela one and it was eh. I liked Voyage d'Hermes but it was more cardamom for me. I'll take a look at the Floraiku one.

>>15545236
I have a sample of Santal 22 but it’s just a tiny glass vial with no atomiser. The stingiest fucking thing imaginable. Not even a dabber.

Which three frederic malle fragrances should I order samples of besides the ones in the discovery sets for him/her (i.e. the green ones in the diagram)?

>>15545749
No, haven't seen many Bvlgari in stores here except for the marine stuff and I really don't like that. I've really been wanting to try Eau Parfumee au The Noir, have you tried that one?

>>15545667
I really like Guerlain Vetiver. Perfect frag for the setting you're talking about. I only wished it lasted longer than 2-3h on my skin.
>>15545699
I got it among 3 free samples that LAP were sending couple weeks ago. Still waiting for my samples to arrive three weeks later.
>>15545706
Lutens Five O'Clock
>>15545731
Yeah mate, for people who were wearing Polo before or smelled only Sauvage and its clones in mall perfumeries for sure smelling Oud Wood or Tuscan Leather is quite something. It's one of the best niche gateway houses imo that is available almost everywhere. There's also no point of using the word 'niche' if they don't know what it is in the first place hence experimental.

>>15545773

I’m confused. Do you mean the green ones are the ones you want us to choose from?

If so, I’m not the biggest fan of many of those. However, if you have a deep enough interest I recommend “Le Parfum de Therese” simply because it’s a “hidden” Roudnitska fragrance. I think it smells great and somehow feels like a privilege to be able to smell it.

I guess Music for a While could be appealing, but to me the pineapple is way too dominant for far too long. It’s the only fragrance I struggle to wear for long because of how heady it is.

Lipstick Rose and Rose et Cuir are snice but obviously both Rose. Promise is good, but I would never pay for a sample because it’s so expensive.

I realise this is a bit of a non-answer but I hope it helps a little.

Kind of a pleb question, but how much fragrance should I be using? Like how long should a 2.5 fl oz bottle last me?

>>15545843
Depeds on a strength of a given fragrance. There are some that I spray 10+ times and there are some that 2-3 sprays is enough (Black Aoud, Interlude). On average I'd say that I spray 5 times, 2 sides and back of neck and 2 wrists. There's around 10 sprays in 1ml of fragrance, so yours should last ca. 150 days of continuous use.

Is Prada Luna Rossa Carbon any good?

>>15545843
It really depends. I have 125ml of Dior Homme Cologne and it will probably run out five times quicker than my 100ml of Interlude Man.

>>15545883
A smoother sauvage edt. Like a syrupy beach aquatic

>>15545777
I have tried (well, not really. just sniffed but never worn) The Vert but not The Noir. The latter is on my to-sample list which I haven't gotten to just yet. I'll post a review here when I get a chance at it.
>>15545794
I hate ginger as a note but I'll grab a sample maybe. Thanks.
>>15545883
I've said this in a previous thread but it's a non-obnoxious alternative to Sauvage. Sweet metallic shower gel that is masculine. Great cheapie for younger guys, maybe below 35. Easy to wear and very likeable.

>>15545800
I meant to say that the ones highlighted in green are currently available through their sample service and are not in either of the 6x1.2ml discovery sets (for him = highlighted in blue, for her = highlighted in red)

Thanks for the tips

>>15545918
That’s what I assumed. I guess it depends why you’re sampling too. I sampled them out of curiosity (like I said about Therese), not with the intention of buying a full bottle. That said, I’m seriously tempted by a bottle of Lys Mediterranee.

What are decants?

>>15545794
6 sprays (back of neck and both ears) is enough for me. Have you tried wearing them in colder weather? It lasts around 8 hours for me, though it only projects for about an hour. I think it's supposed to be a very soft scent, otherwise it smells very sharp and off-putting.

>>15545941
is google blocked in your country or something

>>15545941
it's essential a large sample (5ml, 10ml) of some fragrance, usually made postmarket by some jew on ebay trying to turn his $200 bottle into $600

>>15545964
I would say that 5ml is still a sample

>>15545915
Thanks man

Kek, it's real and soon to be released

>>15546012
Wow. The notes are different too. Melon, green accord and and Ambroxin listed.

According to fragrantica records I’ve smelled 421 fragrances. What about you anons?

Talking about ALD6.

>>15545623
I just buy cheap meme shit I can find. Want to try everything cheap first
versace dylan blue, eros, burberry weekend, ck one, polo green.

If there is something cheap that lingers well that I enjoy, then I will be content, even if I am considered a pleb here. Might get into the more expensive selections one day when I try all the basic stuff

>>15546116
they sound very unimpressed

>>15546212
I haven’t seen it yet but Fragranceview didn’t like them much either. Seems like ALD are running out of ideas.

Hey, after advice from here I got into fragrance this summer with the lovely L'Eau d'Issey, the smell is amazing. Autumn/Winter is rolling around and I'm wandering what first fragrance to go with for this season?
Been considering shelling out extra for Chanel Blue since it seems like something I'd really like and also a safe bet. Any reccs from some more experienced people?

>>15546228
dior fahrenheit

>>15546228
Rochas Moustache. Basically a clone of YSL Tuxedo. Not quite as good as Tuxedo, but pretty close and it’s quite cheap.

Snicebomb Extreme and Mugler Pure Havane are both solid cool weather sweet tobacco scents. Either one is a good choice. 1 Million Prive (and ONLY Prive, forget the other 1 Million frags exist) is a snice spicy/peppery tobacco frag too.

anyone ever try mandarina duck black? quack

>>15546212
From their videos and activity on different fragrance groups it seems that they're getting bored with all the drama and ALD reusing his ideas over and over again and going in some weird directions. I think they also didn't like ALD5.
>>15546228
Glad to hear that. First of all I'd recommend smelling what you can in person or sampling online. You can do much better than BdC for F/W season. These are all way better (and cheaper) choices for FW :
>Chopard Oud Malaki
>Rochas Moustache (I agree with what the other anon wrote)
>Mollinard Ambre Lumiere
I had tested all three of these cheapies and loved them despite being a nichefag who has bottles costing 5x these.
Other cold weather affordable choices are summed up in the pastebin in OP:
>https://pastebin.com/qReuXttj

any thoughts on this for the winter?

did Jeremy explain why he had problems with the gay community?

Always had a hard time finding a signature scent and it wasn’t until a couple years ago that I finally found something that works for me.

>>15546334
I really dislike the Luna Rossa line, but if it works on you, it works on you.

>>15546261
>>15546291
Eau de perfume or toilette for the Rochas? I'm guessing EDP since it's for colder weather?

>>15546323
It’s not really a very wearable fragrance. It’s not like it’s a smoky fragrances that may resemble smell of matches to someone. It literally smells like burnt matches.
>>15546365

>>15546377
Thanks for the information!

is this legit? people on the internet say this fragrance is sold out but I think I found it

what does 'botanical' mean in this context?

>>15546334
your signature scent is GENERIC

Can anyone reccomend anything nice and smokey from the cheapo F/W pastebin? Would be much obliged

>>15546414
If it works for him it’s fine. It’s nowhere as popular everywhere as Sauvage.
>>15546419
Eau des Baux.

>>15546414
>your signature scent is GENERIC

>>15546431
Pretty sure it’s one of the coomers trying to cause some controversy again

>>15546492
Yup. Kinda hilarious how that one schizo coomer kept claiming it was the oldfags ruining /frag/ and how there was this whole conspiracy against him, yet the second the coomers self exile, frag gets like 300% better.

>>15546410
Yes, it’s a really cheap fragrance. Can’t believe in anyone having financial incentive to fake it. Not sure about botanical but it seems that the brands’ philosophy is to use as many natural ingredients percentage as possible. So perhaps it’s a way to relate to it

I NEED A COOMBROXAN BOMB TO HAVE SEX??? HELP ME???

Give it a rest. No one here is really looking for any drama. Everything was explained already in the last thread.

>>15546526
https://boards.4channel.org/fa/thread/15541654#bottom

does smokey necessarily = tobacco

>>15546585
No, birch can be smoky, labdanum can be smoky, different kinds of incense can be smoky, oud can be smoky, castoreum can be smoky.

>>15546593
This, and tobacco isn’t really smoky. It’s tobacco leaf or dried tobacco, not tobacco smoke. Tobacco in frags is usually more dusty/earthy/spicy than smoky.

>>15546610
>>15546593
Really helpful, cheers. Buying some samples

>>15546498
Funny how you're framing it as a coomer problem, i don't remember that plotline, maybe it's you.

Is there a frag that's warm and spicy and smells how ginger cake tastes?

>>15546614
Make sure to go on the fragrantica page for the scent you're considering and doing a quick Ctrl+F "Smoke" or any other note you're looking for.

>>15546705

Only asked like that because i'm too embarrassed to ask sincerely

>>15546705
Don’t respond to coomers. If they’re serious, they’ll ask politely. If they’re shitposting, they’re trying to stir up shit. They have their own thread now, don’t let them shit up ours.

living in coastal california, was on a run the other day and stopped to pick some rosemary and sage, rubbed the leaves on my hands, i love the smell so much.

Does anybody have any recommendations for an airy rosemary and sage or herbal scent? Trying to find something that fits that same feeling but without smelling like a spice cabinet. Think coastal california - rosemary, sage, eucalyptus, pine and cedar...

>>15545964

what do you recommend? it looks like it pretty much nails what I was asking for.

>>15546978
Just look at feedback. Most decant sellers have thousands of positive feedback.

>>15546991
OJ Black Gold is a great perfume but it's extremely expensive for no reason. I think the brand's justification for it is the real sandalwood but that's a bullshit excuse.

>Meander explores the exhilarating feeling of happiness in a land of fog, lush green mountains and running streams.

>Drawing inspiration from the Sultanate’s southernmost Governorate during the monsoon (Khareef) season, Amouage creatively translated the surreal fog using Frankincense and smoky Vetiver, the rich greens with Cypriol and Jonquille, while its caramel-coloured mud is brought to life with earthy Sandalwood, Carrot Heart and Orris root notes.

>As the last sun rays bid farewell to the fjords of Musandam, Enclave sophisticatedly portrays the freshness trapped inside a rich, earthy warm hideaway where land meets the sea.

This one and the both the other 2 ones you inexplicably left out sounded interesting, especially the rose one.

As much as I believe Jeremy Fragrance's frags will be very suitable for getting pussy dripping...I just don't want to pay niche price for it. I rather get Sauvage or Bleu de Chanel.

The different theories of sexcore fragrances:

Jeremy Fragrance theory:
Women like 2 things, fresh clean soapy scents, and sweet scents, men just like ultra ultra sweet scents on girls.

Gender swap theory:
Fragrances are made to smell good to the gender they are marketing toward, so to maximize SEX you should wear a women's fragrance.

Daddy theory:
Wear vintage smelling barbershop fragrances so she will associate you with older, more dominant men. I'm somewhat skeptical of this one because 1. no one really wears frags where I live and 2. dads are not really that old, many dads are wearing Bleu de Chanel and Acqua di Gio.

Hookeranon theory:
Girls are actually humans and can appreciate more complex and interesting scents. Avoid loud, potentially annoying scents like 1 million that might remind her of someone she doesn't like.

Let me know if you are aware of any other theories.

>>15548515
Daddy theory is legit, although think Beau De Jour, not Quorum. Funny that you attribute the humanist approach to hookeranon

>>15548524
Do you think that the reason it works is because it reminds them of older men/their dad, or do you think they just like the smell of those style fragrances in a vacuum?

>>15548515
I get most of my compliments with daddy fragrances like Habit Rouge and Kouros. For some reason, Dylan Blue is the exception to that rule though.

>>15548527
I think it's more of a generalized daddy thing, not specific to the chicks actual father always. Some frags smell powerful and authorative, and hooers dig that. Only works on masculine men though. Gotta have some forearms and a chin

>>15548524
Hookeranon is legit the Lawful Good anon, ironically.

>>15547978

Is there any fragrance that smells like musky black men?

>>15548594
I’m not a fan of Lyric either. Definitely a very boring scent. I don’t see too many people discussing it, though. Maybe spergs of Fragrantica, but it doesn’t seem to get much buzz otherwise.

Bros I got GIT for the first time and I love it. I need ysl la nuit and I’m done. The only two frags I will ever need.

Anybody tried this? I remember being interested when there were only like 3 notes listed.

In the market for a nice incense frag but not really interested in boozy/sweet. Would also go for a patchouli that leans incense-y.
Probably going to sample Nuit du Feu and Arso, hit me up with other recommendations. Have tried the CDG series. Kyoto and Zagorsk were aight.

>>15549365
Also, a smokey sandalwood would be very interesting to me, or a smokey guiac.

>>15548422
Rent free.

Just buy Zara and get over with it.

>>15549365
You need to try DS & Durga Amber Kiso. It's heavy on patchouli and incense.

Armani Code? Does it stink for riding? I hope it staaaaanks of fuck.

Srsly tho. I quite like it. Is it too basic bitch?

>>15549365
Overture is legitimately really good. It’s kind of like Amouage’s take on Enigma. Sort of an Enigma x Joob crossover. Boozy, smoky, resinous, a bit spicy, a bit woody. Honestly maybe Amouage’s best frag to date.

Just copped a bottle, still waiting for it to arrive. I’m pretty hype.

alright source?

>>15549365
Good stuff

>>15548998
I went through a 10ml decant. Not a safe blind buy at all. It's really, really smoky. Olympic Orchids Woodcut could be a better bet: it's very similar to Arso for the first 10minutes in its smokiness but then mellows to a photorealistic woodsy scent with some comfy caramel.

>>15549858
Thanks for a recommendation. Isn't it too powdery for a guy?

>>15549858

Look up the pastebin here >>15545056 I tried to make the floral section quite masculine

>>15551041
doubtful, my dude

This smells surprisingly ok for how cheap it is. The opening is quite harsh but once it's settled in it's quite enjoyable.

Boys I’m sold on this shit. Fuckin proper mint shit. Deffo better stank that that Armani code wank. Will be picking up a 200ml tester bottle!

Anyone ever tried Ecre Noire? How is it? Cheers

>>15551210
The worst of the three

>>15551210
Sharp, dark cypress and vetiver with a big dose of ISO E Super if you know how it smells. Quite gothic and austere scent id say.

good diffusers?

>>15551308
thanks. is it a good choice for a cheap vet iver?

>>15551144
Nah, it’s a different guy. Probably that sad Persian kid who was larping about how many white models he was totally fucking because of Layton. Just call him COOMsWIPE because it kinda fits.

>>15549308
update: tested it and it just smells like lyric man. disappointing fabric softener harsh rose fades slowly until the end into shower gel

perfume equivalent of fresh linen?

>>15551364
Amouage Reflection if you’re willing to spend. Otherwise, Montblanc Individuel.

>>15551326
Yeah, quite good. You basically got Guerlain Vetiver, Encre Noires, Carven Vetiver and Mercedes Benz Cologne when it comes to cheap vetivers. I would say that Encre Noire stands out the most out of these.
>>15551363
Thx anon. I will probably also receive it at some point as I was buying from the online MFK shop.
>>15551376
Byredo Blanche

>>15551055

>>15550813
Monsieur mon Amour by Atelier Flou is literally what you are looking for. Fresh, zesty and bright ctruses over smoky incense and woods. Beautiful fragrance.
>>15550906
Not really fresh.
>>15550923
I used to have a bottle and that's one of the most disappointing fragrances I've tried (I recon it's also discontinued now?). It smells very flat, incense is one dimensional and of poor quality and the yuzu-papyrus accord just smells weird.

>>15551062
Idk man, even after the harsh, nasty opening it smells just like a shower gel with the difference that most of shower gels actually smell less synthetic than Nautica.

>>15550813
Honestly DH2020, but maybe I'm just telling you that to justify the fact that I received it when I was hoping to order the original.

>>15551210
I have the sport version, so I can only speak to that. Very nice and unique for the price (it's like $20, so just get one of the versions). We were discussing the sport version in the last thread if you wanna wade through the archive.

Anyone remember the lofts video where he says Black Knight by Francesca Bianchi smells like Batman? I’ve been searching for an hour because of my autism.

Have you guys smelled it? A dark leather and rubber Batman scent sounds cool.

>>15551452
god DH 2020 is so bad. I paid full retail for it too.

>>15550235
>Olympic Orchids Woodcut
I think I tried this a while ago becuase I wanted something that smelled like Ponderosa Pine Bark. I remember being extremely unimpressed. Just smelled like an amateur composition, no finesse.

>>15545342
>>15545695
it's almost tempting to drink out of that bottle

>>15551746
You must not have looked very hard. It's probably the one with 'Black Knight' in the title, dude.

>>15551771
The opening is like a much worse version of VPH. God I hate that inescapable pink pepper opening you find in all major men's flagship releases. To be fair, I think the dry-down is quite nice, but obviously it's not worth it when VPH, Eau Fraiche, and others exist at half the price if you just want an inoffensive freshie. BUYER BEWARE, fragrancenet still has the picture and description of the original, but you will receive the 2020.

>>15551898
it's not

>>15546982
>you can buy samples of expensive frags and have them last months.
this is probably good advice. I really don't mind spending if I end up liking the scent a lot. What's the best place for reasonably cheap samples?
>What do you want to smell like?
no idea

>>15550923
This

>>15550923
Ma Nishtana, smells like smoky pool water to me. Like, if someone built a bonfire next to a swimming pool. I know that doesn’t sound good, but it really is.

Has anyone tried female line of Amouages? Some of them have quite masculine/unisex notes. For example Beach Hut Women seems like a really interesting aquatic with nothing inherently feminine about it. It doesn't have any sweet or floral note etc.

>>15552064
>What's the best place for reasonably cheap samples?

Art theory: the fragrance should complement the style and personality of the girl. I wouldn't mind the right girl wearing my fragrances.

>>15551383
Is the Mercedes Cologne decent? Like a Bright Neroli type deall where you wouldn't expect a car manufacturer to make a nice frag?

>>15552719
One of the best grapefruit openings and then you get a huge punch of vetiver and ISO-E Super. If it sounds good to you, then it might be a deal of Bright Neroli kind. I’m not very kind on vetiver lately so it was a pass for me.

>>15552816
For me vetiver is a kinda eh territory. I like Tom Ford GV, disliked Guerlain for the soapy smokiness it had that felt too mature for me, otherwise vetiver tying together other scents I'm fine with.
I tried Encre Noire on card some time ago but I can't recall it smelling anything other than a dark mossy smell

>>15552719
i wouldnt exactly agree that it has the best grapefruit opening like the other anon said but for the price its really good. i still prefer dior homme cologne though

I think, if lockdown doesn't happen this winter, that I'll go full douchebag mode and use a lot of Joop to make sure people can smell me, mask or no mask.

Funny coincidence that the self-proclaimed Layton tripfag's activity in these threads ceased to exist the moment the 'anonymous' coomer wave of shitposters happened soon after he was exposed as a cumbrain for 6/10 white chicks. I guess it must consume a lot of time to write these coomer posts anonymously and try to destroy the thread to keep up with his trip posting on top of that. Not that I'm very surprised that this is the same person but mildly amused how the target of Layton are always cumbrain shitskins.

>>15552905
Same but with Hiram Green Hyde. Everyone will be asking themselves 'what's the thing on fire?'

>>15552976
No one cares,it's probably you doing both, drama queen

>>15550237
i don't think it's very powdery, i mostly get the rose and oud, and the powder comes in on the drydown. not as powdery as valentino uomo intense

>>15549858
Damn, I'd love to start getting into the Arab houses like Ajmal, Lataffa, Rasasi, etc, but their catalogs are so fucking massive I have no idea what to sample. Anyone have a quick lists of recs?

I posted in the other thread, but was advised that this thread would help me more. I don't know much about fragrances, but I'd like some help finding a signature scent. I usually wear a somewhat traditional style, or minimal and clean, with the occasional slightly grunge fit. I'm looking for something earthy and warm, as I think it would go well with my laid back demeanor. Something that is inviting and masculine. Budget is $100, which I will move laterally on. Other thread recommended me Dior Homme 2020. Any other opinions?

>>15553471
DH 2020 is pretty bad, honestly. It’s a reboot of a classic fragrance that has not been well-received. If you can find the original Dior Homme, that’s probably a decent choice, but the 2020 version just isn’t good.

For earthy and warm, maybe look at something like Spicebomb Extreme or 1 Million Prive (but not the original 1 Million, it’s a Pajeet-tier coomer scent). Maybe even give Terre D’Hermes a go. It’s a bit dryer and more vegetal, but some people like it a lot, and I’d consider it warm and earthy. Rochas Moustache EDP is another very good inexpensive warm, cozy scent, though I wouldn’t call it earthy.

>>15553471
Traditional as in /trad/ or /tip/? How’s the climate at your place? You got proper winter and summer or it’s mild through all year? Fragrances are quite seasonal, you may want something fresh and uplifting for warm weather and deeper and complex for cold weather. Also how old are you? All of that will help a lot to suggest you something.

Do people *really* get headaches from ambroxan and iso e super or is it just attention whoring hypochondriacism?

His reviews are almost useless, he just describes in painstaking detail every super subtle note to make himself look smart and sensitive. At least Jeremy has the decency to tell you if a fragrance smells good or not!

Also I am not going to take the opinion of a mentally ill person (a hysteric case of trump derangement syndrome) seriously.

>>15549171
Soleil Blanc? He’s a former banker so he prolly will appreciate the „sophisticated luxury“ meme of TF at the same time he’s highly educated and certainly a notch above his consoomer banking bros with oud wood + not afraid of appearing feminine.

>>15553648
He really is a shitbird, isn't he
>>15553654
Oud wood is so passee

>>15553648

I get the annoying scratchiness from woody-ambers when other people have over sprayed them. But this tweet seems to be a REEEEEEaction to something they saw online. Note that they are specifically saying that the sensitivity is why people prefer "rare naturals" as opposed to bog standard? naturals?

Did someone attack their favourite brand or something?

Another thing that annoys me is that they had some kind of breakdown with the attar maker Sultan Pasha but they used their coined term "ISO E supercrappy" a lot. Just a little thing but it annoys me for some reason.

Hello, I am a first timer on this thread but I think I just struck gold. I was wondering what fragrances would you recommend to a guy in their late 20s. The last bottle I tried that was really good was Legend by Mont Blanc. Please educate me

What''s the difference bwtween the black orchid edt and edp?

>>15553471
LOL people are reading your post and offering your the old Dior Homme. That's how incredibly out of touch they are with what people actually want. They literally tried to discontinue the original Dior Homme since nobody was buying that shit that smells like a woman's makeup bag.

>>15553547
LMAO you're recommending sugary sweet fragrances for someone who is trying to be minimal, grungy, and warm. How out of touch are you?

>>15553592
Now you want this dude to buy more than 1 fragrance? Do you know it is normal to just wear 1 fragrance? You're trying to convince other people that hoarding fragrances like you is normal.

>>15553766
The best tip is to go smell a bunch of fragrances and build a profile to understand which genres you absolutely hate. Just because you like Legend isn't sufficient information to give meaningful recommendations. The best I can do is recommend fragrances similar to Legend.

- Chanel Platinum Egoiste
- Parfums de Marly Percival

You’re not even good at being a coomer, coomer. Everyone knows MILFs go crazy for the old DH.

Just how out of touch are the people in this thread. Your shit recommendations are fucking laughable.

>>15553824
Ok, what’s the best frag for preying on younger females?

Just got pic related as my first cologne. I fucking love how it smells but this is more a question of how others will smell it.
If summer scents are for the summer (obv) does wearing them out of season some how noticeable to others even on a subtle level?
Because i want to wear this shit everyday atm

>posting a new question @ 290+ posts

>>15553830
Depends on how you dress. Fragrance should harmonize with your style and personality. Having an overweight nerd like you wear Eros would be disgusting to everyone around.

Man, can you guys imagine getting so upset because some people don’t like your shitty overpriced horse water that you try to split the general into two threads just so other pathetic coomers will give you attention only to come back and shit up the place because even coomers don’t want to talk to you?

What a sad existence.

Unending compliment train. That's the power of the coomdesigner perfumer himself. Francois Demachy gave you Sauvage, now he is giving you Dior Homme.

At least Laytonfag vouches for a fragrance with some redeemable quality
DH2020 is literally bootleg BdC, it gets so fucking shit and synthetic when it dries down you might as well wear one million

>>15553879
The dry down is what does the magic that makes girls wet
