fahrenheit has leather?

>> No.17353023

Yesterday I tried Dior homme parfum at work for the first time ( I work in a highway booth, a really closed and hot environment) and I was enjoying the fragrance a lot, but after a few hours I started to get some fecal notes and I was almost going to puke. I didn't even know where that came from, I went into fragrantica to see if someone even mentioned that because I'm aware this is fragrance evolves a lot and noone was saying anything even remotely similar so I assumed it was the mix with my body chemicals what was causing it (quite a hard pill to swallow as a frag head that your body chemistry has notes that makes you smell like shit) . The smell wasn't going away and I ended my shift thinking about swapping it for something fresher on Reddit.

Turns out I shat myself at work without noticing. My fucking chair has a big dent in the middle like a bad bicycle chair and it pressured my perineum area too hard that it got numb and it seems something leaked out by accident. One coworker when she came in the middle of the night so I could go to my break time asked me about my fragrance because the whole booth was smelling a lot and I told her it was Dior.

Now I think she was making fun of me.

If you are rubbing do not rub to hard. If by rubbing you heat the frag you'll ruin it.

I suggest you just browse through the sampler section on fragrancenet and order a lineup based on what you think the person would/could like. If you don’t mind spending north of 100 dollars you could probably put together a whole advent calendar of fragrances for somebody.

Me and my girlfriend looked at actual sampler sets recently and were disappointed with the selection. The top designers only seem to put their weakest EDTs in there for the normies, but there’s probably some okay niche sets out there if you look hard enough

The warm spicy opening of cinnamon is close to the powdery dry coriander of LADDM and ACDD, but from the tobacco I get sweetness of birch tar, root beer, that is in Lonestar and I think the other two, but only a hint of smokiness instead of overbearing leather. It maintains some of that sweetness through the drydown of amber that they all share.

The tiny dabber bottle is not easy to apply, but I'll have to give it a few more comparisons with the full bottle. I went with ACDD because I found the powderiness of LADDM a bit too heavy where ACDD has an edge. Don't know what I'll do with the $20 floral soap, however.

Sundowner is the best tobacco frag out there, in my opinion. It doesn't try to be straight tobacco only, but it adds just the right amounts of everything else. Some spices, some sweetness (but way less than e.g. Red Tobacco, Pure Havane, Naxos), beautiful sandalwood.

>>17355068
Maybe you should get something more intriguing or complex than a Roja offering to restore your sense of smell.

Common theme with all of Tauer's frags is the spice opening. All of them have that, including stuff like Une Rose de Kandahar. It sometimes doesn't mix well with the heart/base and makes the opening weird, but at least you know you got an authentic Tauer frag.

when i went to college and walked across the campus, it was filled with pretty women. i'd say a good 70% were fuckable. natural beauties of normal bmi. why am i going off on this tangent? because once i hit the "real world", where all the average people are combined, i realized that most people are fat or ugly, even women. it's just that at my college the women were from a wealthier background and therefore had an unfair advantage when it came to health, fitness, fashion and what not. the studies confirming a correlation between iq and bmi are also there. it all skewed my perception of reality and i always thought there were plenty of fish in the sea.

Anyone tried the new(?) one? I have a sample on the way.

>It all started when I visited the Louvre in Paris in 2020. There I stumbled over a section that I never visited before although I was in the Louvre a couple of times. The section was all about Persian empires and history. A revelation!
I was mesmerized by the grandeur, by the statues, and the cultural heritage, spanning more than 5000 years. I began to discover more, reading books and I ended up discovering the palace with the name of Golestan in Teheran in pictures. The palace, also known as the Rose Garden Palace, built in the 16th century, with its ornamental and figurative paintings on tiles, was pure inspiration. Golestan literally translates to city of flowers or garden of flowers.
Although I could not travel to Iran so far, I created a perfume that brings me there. It is an invitation to breathe the perfumed air of a flower garden, in freedom.

Reminder that when BI was first being shilled here they used they same shilling tactic and posted claims about fisting models thanks to wearing BI.
Reminder that every time this is pointed out the shill reverts to calling anons schizo to deflect.
Reminder that influencers are still using the "panty dropper" line to shill BI here.

First of all, bi was introduced here way before that. Secondly you get your panties twisted because one guy makes a funny post that gets memed later.

I might have been the third or forth person here to have bought bi, in august last year. The original bi anon bought and posted about it earlier in the year or even before that. Then there was sporadic talk and shilling from OG and maybe another anon. The proverbial snowball grew more rapidly in late summer/fall as more anons got it.

Which notes make them dated? Is it the tobacco in Guerlain vetiver? I don’t think you’ve tried Guerlain vetiver extreme because this one isn’t dated at all, but is mature. If anon wants something more youthful and simple he could try Guerlain homme leau boissee, similar to Terre de Hermes but uses like mint instead of burnt orange in the top.

I'm good looking, dress well and have good hygiene. But some frags are lauded by guys yet most women don't care. Prime example is Aventus. Frag autists need to learn that "complex" and "interesting" frags are mediocre when it comes to smelling actually pleasant to other people

We’re talking about two different fragrances here. Guerlain vetiver (classic from the 50s) and Guerlain vetiver extreme (2014) I don’t think Guerlain vetiver extreme is dated at all and I still don’t believe you’ve tried it if you’re saying it’s dated. Or maybe the mature notes are throwing you off
