Christmas SOTD Divine L'Homme Sage

https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Divine/L-Homme-Sage-43.html

I swear there's a rubbery leather note when you first spray that reminds me of Xerjoff Homme or Parfums D'Empire Cuir Ottoman.

Fun mix of fruit from the litchi, a phantom leather note, cold piney woods, smokey incense and a chocolate patchouli.
A very classic smelling fragrance,if someone said this was a classic Guerlain scent or a Parfums de Nicolai fragrance I wouldn't be surprised.

Can a man wear cape heartache?

>>17410652
What are some good subtle colognes that can be worn at the office regularly?

A friendly reminder:

Ganymede is really good.
Ganymede = Akigalawood + fruits.

Kenzo Homme (Intense EDT and EDP 2022) are good.
Kenzo Homme = Akigalawood + aquatics/blue.

Bois Imperial is fucking garbage.
Bois Imperial = Tom Ford Grey Vetiver + Akigalawood.

>>17410683
Yes, but it's more suitable for females because of the strawberry. Just go with Tom Ford Vert d'Encens or Bois Imperial for a photorealistic take on woods.

>>17410686
Colognes are not for wagies.
Use any, spray less.

>>17410686
Absolutely. The strawberry is deep enough that it doesn't smell feminine at all, and the woods over power it anyway. I've worn it, I prefer Every Storm though

>>17410693
I really appreciate the thought-out answer and recommendations, I'll check those out. Thank you and Merry Christmas, good sir!

>>17410696
I make a salary dumbshit lmao

Yesterday I tried Bois Imperial 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 that this fragrance evolves a lot and noone was saying anything even remotely similar that that 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 Bois Imperial.

Now I think she was making fun of me.

>spend 100$ on good fragrance
>Squirt on skin squirt on clothes
>25 mins later no one can smell it
What is the point of the cologne jew scam? My deodorant lasts longer

I have the option to get two other samples with my purchase of BI, what are some other good scents from Essential Parfums

>>17410766
Bro you're sharing a singular experience in an ongoing thread of hundreds of anons talking about frags that last for hours.

There's no scam. You're just a noselet.

In all seriousness though, there are plenty of fragrances with certain aromachemicals that cause you to "nose blind". Basically you can't smell it after 30mins but alot of people can smell it on you after six or eight hours. This shit is what causes Cologne guy stereotypes, people can't smell what they are wearing so they just spray more but that ends up gassing everyone around them out.

Why yes, I wear Davidoff Cool Water 365 days a year. How could you tell?

I just want a reasonably priced manly fragrance that's rather unknown and underrated. Not something that every guy has...

>>17410805
Bois Impérial or Kouros

>>17410805
be more specific

>>17410805
Bois Imperial

>>17410805
Kouros

>>17410778
>there are plenty of fragrances with certain aromachemicals that cause you to "nose blind"
Bohemian Lime is a funny one for me, I can sniff it once and then it's gone, instantly noseblind every time

>>17410778
Never knew that, should explain this to my mom since she reapplies her perfumes too much and gives us headaches. Does it apply to female perfumes?

>>17410704
Good taste, mate

>>17410805
Encre Noire Sport

>>17410652
thoughts on givenchy gentleman reserve privee?

>>17410825
Yes, mens and women's fragrances are literally the same thing

Some of you fags need a reality check, you've gone too far down the rabbit hole. You autistically obsess over fragrances and label them as being either good or shit (no middle ground), as being for summer or winter, for this occasion or that occasion, etc. The fact is 99% of fragrances smell nice and for the most part it doesn't matter what you spray on yourself. If you're attractive then smelling good is just the cherry on top (pretty much any fragrance will do). If you're some ugly loser it doesn't matter if you're wearing a ridiculously expensive niche fragrance or a mass-pleasing compliment-getter, ultimately you're still an ugly loser.

>>17410853
Not true, Bois Imperial got me laid

I bought a set of samples with these ones:

Interlude by amuage
Oud for greatness
Parfums de Marly Layton
Au Coeur du Désert Tauer
Pardon Nasomatto

What should I expect? Im in the search of a really nice niche fragrance for special occasions

>>17410776
divine vanille is supposed to be good. their musk scent is alright too. dont bother with fig there are betters
actually dont order BI. order the sample set. you will get a coupon of the same price that you can use on any full size bottle. then you'll get the discovery set for free

>>17410892
boring
good but overpriced
boring
great
alright
any upscale fragrance store should have amouage, pdm, nasomatto and initio. i dont really like them because of that, same applies to montale. babbies first "niche" but they're as boring as designers. okay maybe i shouldn't lump nasomatto together with them

How is the projection and longevity of santal 33?
Is it worth it or a meme?
What are some alternatives?

the dreamer or blue jeans? which one to cop?

>>17410896
Wtf Layton is awesome it's like an apple pie

>>17410853
Is this /frag/'s greatest in-joke?

>>17410811
>>17410814
>>17410821

The three stooges

>>17410893
but Fragrantica says those two lean towards female-smelling

I saw a Jeremy Fragrance vid where he recommended spraying onto leather products (belts, dress hoes, watch bands, etc.) because they act like skin with fragrances. Is this real? Does this really achieve better longevity and projection or is this just a meme?

>>17410899
le labo is a meme
>>17410912
just buy the discovery set and when it arrives use the coupon to buy BI, get 2 more samples of whatever you like from the discovery set.
if you want to buy BI anyway, ordering the discovery set makes it literally free
>>17410916
spraying alcohol on real leather sounds like a shitty idea

>>17410896
Au Coeur or l'air du desert ? Which one is more versatile or wearable?

old thread is dead oops, i never got to smell noir anthracite, did i miss out? I love concrete, wet type perfumes
>>17410003
this usually gets recced here so i'll try it thanks
>>17410570
I'm not a big fan of soapy stuff. YSL Jazz was great when I tried it though and I wanted to get a sample and then I never did so maybe I'll get that
>>17410788
how based i purchased cool water wave yesterday to see how it goes, its kurkdjian after all so it should ok.

>>17410940
theyre quite similar. acdd is easier to approach because it lacks the strong cumin note, lddm is more unique and special. both are great

>>17410950
why are you getting rien after the last thread roasted the shit out of it for smelling terrible

opinions on fragrance clones?

>>17410713
get in cagie, faggot

>>17410972
majority of people cannot stomach fucking montale and mancera, let alone some of the arabian cleaning supplies that armaf and the rest of the clone houses cook with

>>17410940
anything with cumin is going to smell like BO on skin.

>>17410652
Is Macys good, or is it for poor people?

>>17410652
I have tried countless mens fragnance and the only ones I like are Boss EDT and Armani Code (because its similar to Boss), also Boss edt in round bottle.
I also tried Guerlain coconut fizz and that was nice but it was for women and it got discontinued

>>17411035
I like Boss EDT a lot too, it was my second major pickup years ago.

Got Burberry Hero EDT for my birthday, absolutely love it. Hope you guys got some good stuff during Christmas!

>>17411064
I have this fear that it might actually get discontinued (very unlikely in this case but you never know), I am thinking of buying like 50 bottles to last me a life time

>>17410652
>didnt really want much for christmas
>parents pressed me
>asked for Bleu de Chanel
>got other random stuff instead

Not mad at all, just thought it was funny. Ill get that frag eventually

Mancera Hindu Kush safe blind buy?

>>17410686
Givenchy gentlemen only is such a great office scent and if you want to go niche try Eight & Bob the original

>>17411122
It smells like banana bubblegum there is no skanky weed note

>>17411030
wtf are you talking about is it for poor people? its better to buy the stuff elsewhere unless its Chanel, which is usually more expensive on discounters.

>>17411122
DONT BUY MANCERA YOU FUCKING RETARD

>>17411122
It's very smoky. Smoky fragrances aren't generally blind buy safe. A safer option is probably Nuit D'Issey Parfum. The smoke pairs amazingly with the smooth vanilla note. Hindu Kush is good but it wouldn't be my first or second smoky fragrance. CH Bad Boy Le Parfum, Z&V This Is Him, and Nuit D'Issey are better smoky options that're also cheaper! - AM

What is similar to gucci pour homme ii? About to finally run out and it's hard to get nowadays

>>17411122
The skankiness is there but it also smells a bit herbal
Absolutely despise the drydown as it smells like cheap soap

>>17411232
WHY? I have mancera sahariand wind and montale patchouli leaves. They are fine. Very POTENT, STRONK KRAFT

>>17411273
maybe not dead on, but Guerlain Neroli Outrenoir is the benchmark for a tea scent. Nothing comes close to the quality and blending of that one.

>>17411273
get armani's eau de cedre broski - cheap, under the radar, underrated

Nothing better than a free day, while wife is out and sitting on the PC searching for anal porn with whites blondes on Pornhub and listen to this so loud even the neighbours hammered against the wall: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KVjeheaFfsM
What fragrance would you recommend me for this?

I think I have finished the fragrance game.
>le male le parfum
>luna rossa black
>bois imperial
>musc ravageur
I don't need anything else do I?

>>17411601
Need a blue scent, get cool water or kenzo homme intense

>it’s just a fad
>it’s only shilled in this thread by three-four people
>it doesn’t smell good!
>it never gave me any pussy
Perfume rating 4.26 out of 5 with 1,380 votes
keep seething uggos

>>17411601
get some proper fougere and something you non-juvenile you can wear to festive occasions

>>17411678
Grey Vetiver has 4.30 out of 5 with 5,696 votes
I guess that means it'll objectively get me more pussy than BI by your logic and should be more popular in this thread too...
and yet I don't see the same ugly brown shithead shill it in 10 posts in every thread along with pictures of 3/10 white girl asses... how curious

>>17411646
I would say bois imperial counts as a blue scent, unless by blue you mean aquatic.
>>17411685
Whats wrong with wearing musc ravageur for christmass and bois imperial for other ocasions?? I am not an office worker so I currently have no need for more formal scents.

>>17411685
Fucking this. I stull search for a terrific fougere without shitload of sweets or citruses, but bombastic green aromatic. Bon Monsieur is high up there, but my journey goes on.

>>17411715
*still

>>17411710
>Whats wrong with wearing musc ravageur for christmass and bois imperial for other ocasions?? I am not an office worker so I currently have no need for more formal scents.

i would personally never wear musc ravageur to a strictly formal setting (say weddings and a like), especially during the summer. but if you see no problem with that, then all good!

>>17411715
ah, i'm also a chronic bon monsieur wearer. it's hard to find a better aromatic fougere but try to get your hands on a gucci nobile/vintage ysl jazz. foguere l'aube is also nice but not as aromatic

>>17411706
its a b8

>>17411735
I would wear bois imperial, I think it's clean and fresh with just the right ammount of woods and vetiver to make it acceptable for more formal occasions

Decided to get ask for some discovery sets instead of specific fragrances. I got pic related.

Jazz club is nice i can see why it gets the hype. Oud wood is very masculine but i don't understand why its so pricey

>>17411742
i find BI way too casual for something like that, it's more of a freshie better of. by something "more formal" i mean maybe grab a 5-10 ml of something that makes a bigger statement than BI, think of emiro moresque and a like. but again, you asked for recommendations and i'm just giving you input/alternative pov

>>17411749
fuck i cant type complete sentences, meant freshie better for casual settings

>>17411749
Would you consider Hacivat, Moustache EDP, Etruscan water, Ganymede or b540 to be statement making fragrances? And would you want to make a statement on someone elses wedding day? depending on how close you are to that person it may seem a bit fucked up

>>17410847
It smells like Dior Homme intense and CH prive, so make up mixed with whiskey and leather. If you can pull it off it's a really good scent.

>>17411762
>Hacivat, Moustache EDP, Etruscan water, Ganymede or b540
all but moustache sound pretty good to me, i think it's a little too peppery and synthetic. also br540 might be associated to a lot of other things though depending on where you live

>And would you want to make a statement on someone elses wedding day?
great point! sorry, this was a poor choice of words, and wedding was just for the sake of example. to be more clear: i would like to have something distinctive to wear for formal situations where also other parts of your appearance might be considered more formal

>>17411780
I understand what you mean, I think whilst b540 or b540 extriat might have a lot of conotations to casual wear by females, the b540 dna is a spectacular choice for males when it comes to black tie.

I remember hating Eau Sauvage EdT when I sampled it about a year ago.
I now tried the same sample and loved it, but am too scared to buy it since people might react to it the same way I did last year when I wear it.

I got memed. This smells like an old woman

>>17411888
>lavender, cardamon, vanilla
>smell like an old woman
filtered, and sentenced to death by 100 sprays of red tobacco delivered via a gasmask

>>17410805
Eight and Bob.

>>17411895
>cardamon and vanilla
>smell like a sweetened vagina

>>17411907
>200 bucks

Thanks for the rec but I'll pass.

>>17411946

https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Mauboussin/Private-Club-for-Men-51867.html

Try this then. Excellent frag, highly rated but not completely unknown, easy to find under $50.

>>17411986
I appreciate the reply, but those scents are not gothrock enough.

>>17410652

>>17411678
It has already reached mainstream popularity and sits between mainstream designer frags on the fragrantica awards. Sure, inbetween mediocre flankers of popular designer frags, but mainstream nonetheless. Le Male Essence de Parfum is even made by Quentin Bisch.

any other frag which makes women involuntarily do this?

>>17412003
My armpit smell.

I really like Nishane Unutamam. Once this thing dries down it smells like the perfect pussy. That rare kind of pussy that doesn't stink like tuna. Just stinky, sexy, vagina juice.

What other frags be like this?

>>17410899
santal has nuclear projection and lingers for a long time after youve left. smells great imo but also very recognizable. one spray is more enough if you want to be "more subtle" but even then it has great performance.

>>17412003
Chanel Antaeus, Cool Water, the list goes on.

>>17410899
santal 33 jumped the shark when the ny times wrote an article on it

I still rep it. RIP Miyake

>>17410899
>>17412078
>>17412048
I'm so fucking sick of Santal 33 bros. Just get Cremo Palo Santo, literally identical smell for 1/10th the price. My gf has Santal 33 and we compared them side by side, they are indistinguishable

Are there any good Christmas deals right now online at Sephora, Macy's, etc.?

I'm new to /frag/ and was wondering if Dior Homme EdT is a good place to start?

>>17412218
The new Dior Homme 2020 is a good place to start, albeit a bit boring. I'd suggest going to a store just to smell multiple frags and then decide which one you liked most (so far). Dior, Chanel and Guerlain fragrances are great starter picks and widely available.

>>17412218
the current one? it's fine if a little boring. a very safe woody scent. if you like how it smells, buy it. don't blind buy, go to a store, spray some on your wrist and see how you like it
the old one was very different, closer to Dior Homme Intense. you can still get it as "Dior Homme Original"

>>17412218
go and smell shit, 4 at a time casue paper strips lie only skin tells the truth.

>>17412223
>>17412226
>>17412255
I'm too much of an agoraphobic to go to a store.

>>17412259
order some samples then
but know that no one's going to judge you for testing frags at a store. that's what they're there for

>>17412263
You don't feel weird going to a store to test frags and ask for samples without buying anything?

>>17412265
no, you retard overwhemling majority of their business is online anyway.
>>17412259
grow a pair sissy, if the clerk is asking if she can help with anything, just smile and say no thank you, nobody gives a fuck

>>17412265
no. you've got to realise that that's what 90% of people are there to do and the clerks know it well. many people nowadays realise they can get frags cheaper online. retail stores make their money off the few dumb or rich enough not to look for a better deal

>>17411481
>>17411528
Thanks, will give both of those a try

>>17412272
>>17412277
Ok, i'll go to Sephora and ask for 10 sample vials of popular frags.

What the fuck is his issue?
Currently testing carbonara and for the first 30 minutes it had the strongest most photorealistic scent of black pepper I have yet to witness, and it indeed brought memories of grinding freshly roasted black pepper into cacio a pepe, then it turned into his signature lovely cold vanilla that lasts forever. But like really? why did this autist have to make this black pepper note so strong? It's so weird.

>>17412291
Where do you live retard? sephora does not carry samples in europe anymore. Thats why you need to make multiple trips, you cannot test more than 4 at a time. And you are just dipping your toes meaning you don't know shit and are as green as they come. But thats ok designer frags are meant ot be pleasant, so it's not like there is many bad choices. You could get samples of those frags from facebook groups, but no fucking reason to pay for shit you can test for free

>>17412218
Yeah I’ve been using it for about two months. I like it a lot. I love the way it smells later in the day especially. Definitely inoffensive and good for any occasion. I know some people dislike the reformulation, but I think it’s just as good as the original although they are entirely different scents imo.

Redpill me on club 75

>>17410899
santal noble
no pickles
>>17411780
i have renaissance, i wear it when im feeling like more formal or just more put together in a casual situation,but in the spring summer

how are you able to post funny pics in the frag threads now? Did an old mod od from sauvage fumes? They used to get so butthurt and were so gung ho on posting a gay magazine frag pic for the thread. Keep it up hot shot

>>17412298
Pls respond

>>17412329
that butthurt janny "doesn't care anymore" as in he lurks every single thread, and will make 1-2 posts every few threads that are quality, and shill his blog.

These aren't the same type of tea as in Gucci 2 but they are all good tea frags that highlight different facets. You should try them

Fragrance noob here. I've been researching fragrance reviews/stats for a week now and I'm thinking of getting one for each season, namely Blue Dylan and Luna Rossa Black, are these good noob choices?

>>17412329
what are you even saying

>>17412342
Nowhere but you should have been knowing already because I'm that guy. I'm him.

>>17412298
Mediocre, but wearable. That's a compliment for a Bogart. As with most Bogarts, it is impossible to pick out notes and it's just some sweet ambery stuff.

Yeah those are wearable and not even bad.

>>17412415
whats wrong with Dali, its pretty goth to me, much more then fahrenheit and antaeus i reckon. a lot of people say van cleefs pour homme is really goth as well but it didn't do it for me.
>>17412402
how does fahrenheit count? Fahrenheit Absolute hits the goth spot for me but that shits too expensive now. can i add Amouage Figment Man though? Narciso Rodriguez for Him? Ungaro Pour Homme III? But they border on depressing. Heeleys Cardinal and L'Artisans Timbuktu and Passage d'enfer are along the lines of Avignon.

>>17410805
Hey anon I just bought a bunch of frags from Luckyscent. I'm not going to touch some of the other replies here but apparently you want unknown, underrated,gothrock (???) and less than $200

If you're actually looking for something and not just being an asshole I strongly suggest this:

https://www.luckyscent.com/product/22713/lhomme-sage-by-divine


https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Divine/L-Homme-Sage-43.html


Check it's scores our first. Released in 2005, 4.29 out of 5, 200 votes. So it's well rated but compared to scents with thousands of votes from this year, it's very unknown
Go to the reminds me of section and it's blank. For good reason. I have never worn anything quite like this. It's got smoky elemi, cold snowy woods from the pine and leather but also a floral heart from immortelle and a pinch of ripe seductive fruit from the litchi. The reviews are glowing and for good reason.

It smells great, it performs well, it's rich,dark and seductive so it would fit fine in a goth setting, it's well under $200 and it's in stock.

>>17412450
Fahrenheit is literally gasoline,leather and flowers. To me that's goth as fuck.

Figment is over rated and over priced. Ungaro 3 is only good if you get the old formula. Look for bottles with the red cap on eBay. New batches are piss.
Timbuktu isn't anywhere near Avignon but forget that. If you want goth get Voleur Du roses and Passage D'enfer. Both are goth as fuck, slight edge to Voleur because it's goth that fucks, Passage is just more dry.

Narcisco Rodriguez is over rated shit for people who won't wear better musk scents because they are labelled unisex.

>>17412298

As someone who loves Bogarts, it’s a solid offering. A crisper version of Le Male, in my opinion.

>>17411888
Strongly disagree with your opinion here. It's the cardamom of YSL La Nuit mixed with JPG. Smells great, I'm a man in my 40s and it's gotten great feedback from women. So far I've gotten compliments from black, white, latina and Asian women, ages appear to be 25-50.
And no I am not a handsome man, I've said this in previous posts but I'm a bald Jew who height maxed, I look like a much taller but still fat Les Grossman, so if I get a compliment on a fragrance, the fragrance smells good.

>>17412298
Candy sweet, loud, cloying, it's a miasma of copied notes that smells like something a pajeet cab driver would spray on himself with pride before shitting in front of a train station. It's not good, it's not good at all, and the only people who say that it's good are the ones that have convinced themselves they've found a hidden gem because they lack the impulse control needed to save $20 more to get something much much better.

I know some ass will call me a pretentious snob,and that's fair. But I'm not wrong. Some cheap frags smell amazing, I'm a huge fan of Azarro Visit for instance. But this just smells so fake and sweet that I question the taste and integrity of anyone that hawks it.

>>17412360
Dylan Blue is fine enough for a standard every day blue frag. Not challenging or interesting in the least as an object of art if you're more into frags, but fine for normies. I'm not too crazy about the Luna Rossa line, they go even further into "shower gel" vibes which is just not for me.

>>17412360
>Dylan Blue

Huge fan, absolute banger of a frag. It's the best "blue" fragrance out there. Combines the smoke and incense of Bleu de Chanel, the Ambroxan of Sauvage and a sort of marine woodiness of AdG Profumo.

I honestly don't know why this fragrance isn't crowned as King of the genre. It's not juvenile, it performs well without being loud, it's recognizably a blue fragrance while still smelling unique. Love it, 9/10.

>>17412513
>not juvenile
its a cute twink perfume

I sampled this and I'm kind of lost for words. What are the thoughts on this? It almost smells moldy or musty in a negative way.

>>17410652
Have my girlfriend bought me some kind of a faulty batch or it was always that bad? It didnt really smell that "distant" like a year ago. Idk what to do

>>17412546

>>17412546
there is a possibility she bought a fake that was passed off for the real deal

>>17412546
What the fuck do you mean it smells "distant"? Do you mean it doesn't last long, it doesn't project, it doesn't evolve as it dries down, etc. Distance isn't a smell .

If it's a smell and not a performance issue please tell us what smells bad about it? Also where did you smell it a year ago , and have you considered that maybe what you smelled a year ago was the bad batch and your bottle is how it's "supposed" to smell. It's very Cypress heavy which can be sharp and almost piss like in odor.

>>17412551
She bought it in notino, never had problems with them

>>17412553
I remembered it being a bit intense, maybe i didnt spray it that much or im not used to it. I have so many beast mode edps that a more delicate frag feels underwhelming to me.

>>17412462
How is Farenheit, actually? Could be a fun pickup but I don't want it to be overpowering.

What do you guys think of this fragrance?
Is it a normie fragrance? It was the only one I smelled that I liked because it seemed sexual so I want to buy it bros

>>17412689

>>17412689
I think it's great and a little underrated, probably because it's not really a normie frag. it's more like a take on Shalimar with less citrus and vanilla and a bigger emphasis on patchouli. it's very rare to see a noticable civet note in a modern designer frag. unofortunately it wasn't a hit and its more generic normie flanker, "noir extreme" has overtaken it

be sure to try Guerlain Shalimar too if you like this, the EDP especially. it's a women's frag but it smells quite similar to Noir and smells fairly unisex by today's standards (many women nowadays wouldn't touch something so heavy with smoke and animalics and all that)

>>17410652
Good morning sir. Suggest me some perfume under three thousand rupees sir.

Please recommend something that combines the wormth and comfort of vanilla with earthy and leathery saffron notes. Basically like a more versatile Noir Extreme.

It says Sweden on it so I'm saying it's shit.

What do you think of my frags? I use 'CH men' as my signature scent and 'Bleu Électrique' as my special occasion/date fragrance.

>>17413058
Imagine being a yuropoor lol, those guys ship from one state over from me. After I finish my Dakar bottle I'm gonna buy like 10 backups, why don't you just get 10 bottles to make the shipping worth it?

>>17410805
>Not something that every guy has...
Are you kidding? Most guys don't own a single fragrance, and if they do, they wear the fragrance on very few occasions. I would guess that 10% of men regularly wear a fragrance and 1-5% of men own multiple fragrances and own one of the many 'popular fragrances' (of which there is ~ 100). What are the chances that these 1-5% of men own the same popular fragrance you are interested in AND actually wear it? The only fragrances that I would be confident norms are familiar with are bleu de channel, one million, and maybe a select tom ford.

>>17413095

>>17410686
Grey vetiver

>>17411064
Got the EDP for Christmas. At first I loved the smokiness of it. Then I looked at its fragrantica page and saw one guy complaining about a rubbery scent — now I pick up on that every time and can’t unsmell it. Don’t know if I should be more pissed off at internet fragrance snobs for ruining my blissful ignorance, or at Burberry for using shit quality ingredients

>>17413019
Got a bottle of PR Pour Homme right here and I'm way over 18.

>>17413082
start using bleu electrique as your signature, throw ch men into the trash bin and buy something better for special occasions

>>17413175
Care to elaborate? I like using CH as a signature because it is light and not especially 'sexy' (but I quite like it), so it feels more appropriate to wear in an office environment or elsewhere. While bleu electrique is a fragrance that I associate more-so with intimacy, so I like to wear it when I am looking to make strong impressions (dates, award ceremonies, etc.)

>>17413182
what strong impression? blue electrique is fresh cardamon on a powdery base

>>17413172
Ah yes. Fabuloso and cigars. An exquisite aroma (not joking)

>>17413204
Perhaps my justification is fairly arbitrary, but what I mean to communicate is that I feel more confident while wearing that fragrance and that is why I wear it when I am looking to "make a strong impression". What was your thinking behind "throw away CH men and adopt blue electrique as your signature"?

Where do y’all go for savings? I used to just grab shit from Ross but, now I’m stationed overseas and everything sucks.

>>17410652
bros what is the better buy bleu de chanel parfum or sauvage

>>17413210
wasn't me never smelled ch men so I cannot say shit about it, but blue electrique is a daily scent, it's nothing special. It fits perfectly as a daily driver

>>17413221
That only depends on which one smells better to you.

>>17413221
bdc by a mile

>>17413019
I just can't have that gaudy shit in my bathroom. not that I really like any of it anyway. some of the early 2000s stuff is okay

>>17413238
I can't decide between the edt and the parfum. I sprayed both on me and the edt is basically already faded but I think i slightly preferred that scent. I don't know.

>>17413254
If you like the edt just get it. Subtlety with frags will always mog the persian guys who stink up every room they enter.

>>17413254
You’re not gonna get that much more longevity out of the parfum in my experience, but I prefer the scent to EDT (and both to EDP) so that’s what I wear

>>17413257
I'm gonna go with parfum. It's a bit more sensual and less powdery.

>>17413019

>>17413247

I don't think you should be allowed to have any fragrance you retard

I'm wearing BDC Parfum this winter but I think it's too thick for summer
How is BDC EDT for summer? Is it really a lighter more airy version?

>>17412537
turns really sour on my skin

>>17413303
It's more powdery and has way less oil

>>17413323
>more powdery
Isn't that bad for summer

>>17413342
I don't know it seems more summery

I went to the store and smelled the free smells. I hated Eros, sauvage and BDC and loved Antaeus, Kouros, Jicky etc

Am I gay?

>>17413386
You might be suffering from arthritis and Alzheimer's

>>17413386
congrats you're not a zoomer sissy

>>17413386
not necessarily, you just have good taste

>>17413386
>Am I gay?
yes, flamboyantly

>>17413386
you either have godlike taste, or you deluded yourself into being a hipster, because kouros smells like used urinal cake, eros edp is really pleseant, BDC edp and parfum are boring but pleseant and sauavage should be ok for most unless they hate ambroxan with a passion

What should I look at next if I like all of these.

what is the best office winter frags?

>>17413434
What are you looking for though?
If I were you I would try out some darker things, some heavier things for winter and / or dates. If you don't need those, you can easily look into other sandalwood fragrances, and there is plenty of those since you like that floris.

>>17413457
>sandalwood fragrances
Can you suggest any? I am not really looking for anything desu just interesting things to smell I suppose.

I'm always looking for something new and special, the new GOAT. But when I smell Chanel Pour Monsieur EDT again, I wonder why I keep searching for the perfect scent.

>>17413459
As far as sandalwood goes I would recommend those:
Tam Dao Diptyque
Santal Blanc Van Cleef & Arpels
Radio Bombay DS&Durga
Debaser DS&Durga
you should probably try the classic Santal 33 Le Labo, and as my favourite I would go for Piano Santal L'Orchestre Parfum.
And as for darker, dirtier things check out Musc Ravageur, Grand Soir, Eau Duelle Eau de Parfum, francesca bianchi fragrances, african leather, black orchid, noir extreme TF, and jubilation XXV

>>17413482
Oh, and if you are just looking for intresting things to smell, you could test some samples of different incense frags to see if you like them, I would recommend to try those:
CDG incense series
Cardinal James Heeley
anything from Filippo Sorcinelli
La Liturgie des Heures Jovoy Paris
Fille en Aiguilles Serge Lutens
Timbuktu L'Artisan Parfumeur
Memoir Man Amouage
Interlude Man Amouage
Myths Man Amouage

>>17413482
>>17413496
Thanks bro

is Bois Impérial really just a meme, or is it actually good? was looking at its notes and it seems like it is actually something that can be really good.

>>17413512
It's great but I don't want to smell like it

>>17413512
get a sample and decide for yourself? I would say it's genuinly fantastic, easily the best fragrance you can buy within this prince range

>>17413512
it's a pretty good frag but it won't make women attracted to you. I don't think it's even particularly mass-pleasing, it's a bit of a weird frag

>>17413525
>it won't make women attracted to you
Which frags will? People say fresh and sweet but what does that mean for example

Any of them, but at the same time it’s not about the frag.

>>17413512
It's unironically an excellent fragrance despite all the shilling. Try Kenzo Homme Intense for a more designery take on the DNA

>>17411746
I got the TF pack about a month ago, my favourites are Ebene Fume and Soleil Neige. Oud Wood last like 2 hours on my skin and fades. so glad I bought the pack rather than taking a chance on a blind

>>17413527
If you are looking to attract a woman of quality, then I have found that advanced knowledge of perfume to be far more effective at attracting attention than any fragrance itself.

I suggest you pick up some books by Luca Turin and begin honing your nose and palate.

>>17413625
LMFAO

>>17413434

>>17413669
You should know that already since I assume you have smelled this for free at a store - it is widely available at every frag store.

for some reason the dominant note I get from Creed Aventus and CDNIM is cigarette smoke or even more precise a wet ashtray, it's really disgusting. I don't get this from Montblanc Explorer though
I have one other friend who thinks the same, we're both ex smokers
Anyone else had this experience?

>>17413635

>>17412551
>>17412547

>>17413672

I mean, do you need a frag to get fat chicks/hookers?

>>17413655
yeah buy a $200 tom ford candle instead of the actual frag

>>17413716
Get any chick you want with the magical concoction

>>17413095
i smell sauvage and eros every now and then, more than the others you mentioned

>>17413625
which Luca Turin book would you recommend?

>>17413737
Perfumes A to Z is a fun book that can be read in short bursts. It's a collection of his and his wife's perfume reviews.

Why do y’all wear cologne?
Inb4 >to smell good

1: Time for something a little different: Work scents for professionals and people in management age 25+. Let's be realistic, sometimes when you're in a high paying field there are rules and regulations and you can't express yourself as much as you'd like to clothing or scent wise. Especially if you're the boss and need to maintain a certain image of being approachable but also professional and in control.
What does this mean for your scents? Basically you're going to want quality scents that aren't as loud and don't have notes like cumin, heavy booze, heavy sexual musks, heavy smoke, rough ouds, etc. This may sound restrictive but as with most things in life its another change to be creative.

Let's start with spring. My choices are:
Hermes H24 EDP. The smell of hot irons, fresh linen, steam and green bananas

Loewe 7 Plata: Pink pepper, smokey mint, cedar and green incense

Creed Himalaya Ice cold woods,juniper, pepper and light musk


Issey Miyake Bleu: Beautiful mix of pine, rosemary, amber, florals and a light aquatic musk

These will smell amazing on a crisp match day. They aren't your standard Sauvage or BdC but they're still accessible and will last

>>17413923
2: For the summer

Hermes Voyage EDP Pink pepper, tea notes, papyrus, florals,cedar


Les Indemodables Escale en Indonesie: A huge ambergris note, neroli and sandalwood

Goldfield and Banks Bohemian Lime: Peppery lime, Vetiver and cedar

Jourum Studios Gorseland: Gorse, Apple, neroli, green rose , lavender, coconut, grass


These four scents work well even when it's 95 degrees and you're sweating your ass off. They are light and fresh while still smelling mature, and they have echos of other more common fragrances. Escale is basically what niche Sauvage would smell like if it was good and well put together. Gorseland is the coconut from Virgin Island Water via gorse and with a more grassy floral dry down that smells like a Hermes Jardin fragrance.

These are fresh and captivating but still smell good with a suit.

>>17413930
3: For the fall. This is the easiest season IMHO, you have so much room to work

Histories Des Parfums 1899 Hemingway: An evolution of the original Spicebomb DNA. Juniper opening to keep things fresh,dries down to cinnamon, sweet woods and dry amber and a ghost of blonde tobacco


Prada Luna Rossa Extreme: Clean soapy Prada style minimalism with a contrasting note of a blast of black pepper. absolutely love the contrast here.

Terre D'Hermes EDT Dirty orange, dusty ground up minerals, Vetiver and cedar. I prefer the EDT because it's rougher but the Parfum works well too


Polo Cologne Intense: Criminally ignored fragrance and one of the best blue fragrances on the market. Marries the sweet herbal opening of the original Polo to the shower gel wood drydown of YSL Y EDP/Parfum. Under rated because morons expected Polo Green 2, which admittedly isn't help by the name. This is the closest I'll get to an Ambroxan dominant frag. The sweet green herbs last into the drydown so it's never just a blue fragrance.


The reality of office temps is they're probably going to be the same year round. 70 in the spring, summer, fall, winter. It's all the same in first world countries. So you could probably wear the same things year round,but people associate certain smells with seasons. Grass and flowers in spring, citrus and ocean in the summer, dry woods in the fall, and more heavy woods, spices and vanillas in the winter. I think most people's wardrobes work fine in the fall, you can have temps ranging from 40-90 so there's room for everything

>>17413944
Lastly, winter

Prada Luna Rossa Black: An interesting bergamot earl grey opening quickly moving to an arid and bitter green galbanum that turns dusty and blends in with a powdery barbershop dry down. Clean, sweet and powdery

Divine L'homme Sage: Smells like money. Syrupy immortelle blending with rich golden cedar, nutty cardamom, sweet cold pine needles and a slight fruity touch of orange and litchi. Every note is distinct, absolute masterpiece of a fragrance. This is a work fragrance that I love wearing outside of work.

Lalique Lion EDP: One of the best kept secrets in the fragrance world, poor man's Bois Du Portugal. Citrus melange opening turns into smoky lavender and powdery sandalwood along with rich oakmoss and vanilla. Punches well above it's weight when it comes to cost.

Caron Pour Un Homme: Chose it as the opposite of Lalique Homme due to it's presentation of lavender. Here the lavender is rich, regal,plush and velvet. Blends perfectly with the rich sweet drydown of vanilla, amber and musk. This is as sweet and rich of a fragrance as I'd feel comfortable wearing at work, it also works as a date fragrance. But in cool temps it's easy to spray lightly and keep it under control, especially the newer formulations that are less dense and rich.
This is the spiritual precursor to YSL La Nuit IMHO


So there you have it, four seasons of diverse professional work fragrances to have you smelling unique, classy and professional.

What's wrong with Parfums De Marly? I enjoyed their scents when comparing them to Tom Ford at the store?

I think Herod is a nice scent compared to Tobacco Vanille. Smells of cherry tobacco, leather, and vanilla. Girls like it on a cold winter day (if they aren't repulsed by sweet tobacco scents).

>>17413988
they are the most overpriced shit you can get, they are all about being "higher quality everyday scents" and they fail miserably at the higher quality part, and herod is the worst fucking offender of it, the tobacco in herod is the same exact combination of chemicals that is used in red tobacco by mancera, same goes for carlisle but it gets masked later on with the applepie theme it has going on there. Oajan is just the applie pie with even more spicies, really pleasant but fuck no for the price. Layton is good, it's the only respectable thing out of that house.

>>17414002
you really bought ath frags lol how are they?

>>17414028
Bro what the fuck? CPuH was only $30 when I bought it years ago in the US, shouldn't it be cheaper in Europe? Was it discontinued?

Regardless, if you like suave lavender frags that are professional but could teeter into playboy and lecherous if over applied you'll love Caron.

>>17414036
I am fairly sure it's discontinued, or sold out almost everywhere online here.

>>17413823
time to sample some new lavenders and irises, new sample order:
>Lavandeluce, April Aromatics
>Feb. 14. 1912, Rundholdz
>Thyina, Neela Vermeire
>Chandlery, Pineward
>Purpureum, Neela Vermeire
>Trimerous, Jorum Studio

>>17414028

I mean, the most expensive one I got was 200 dollars. Rest of my PDMs were obtained for 170-190 dollars on holiday sales and promotions. Honestly, they aren't overpriced at 170-200 dollar range.

>>17414035

Niche. Notorious smells narcotic and divisive on the opening to my GF, but she loves the same scent on the drydown.

I liked the sample of his Raw Cherry more than Tom Ford Lost Cherry. (think sweet oud, chocolate, cherry, vanilla).

Forbidden is his best one though. Dark chocolate covered orange with turkish delights and sweet cherry cake. Actually a unisex and can be used by either me or my girlfriend.

ATH fragrances are alright, but i'd order a sampler before you commit to anything or just buy his most highly rated frags.

ATH does best on drydowns and they last all day and nnight.

>>17414052
>>17414002
i _sincerely_ hope your fragrance collection is a product of youtube shilling rather than a production of your own sampling, which I highly doubt. remember that this industry runs largely on shilling, pr work in fragrantica/youtube and self-suggestive consumers

>>17414052
Its insane how you claim that pdm are not overpriced. You get hacivat in the 130€ range, and in terms of quality its 3 leagues ahead of any pdm, actaully insulting to say pdm is ok for the price. Its shit quality, with uninspired scentprofile at best and mancera-tier at worst. There is no way that given the choice between noir extreme, black orichid, tuscan leather, noir de noir and pdm shit in a side by side you dont go for TF. And if you really did that, you are paki/10

>>17413919
you're wrong

>>17414093

Don't understand how it is overpriced at 170-200 dollar range for full bottle compared to creed and Tom Ford charging 450 USD retail and discounters giving 300-400 USD pricing.

I enjoyed PDM and am trying to try some new things since I completed my collection with them, I am unsure why you are so hostile towards them.

Offnote, I bought Hacivat instead of Aventus because I couldn't justify the price tag for something relatively similar. Even though the sample of Aventus had a far nicer drydown than Hacivat, Hacivat lasted longer. I wish Hacivat wasn't so earthy on the drydown though.

I've been wearing D&G Light Blue for about a decade now, and I'm just branching out and experimenting with new scents. Any recommendations for where I should go next?

I don’t want to be on the /frag/ bandwagon, but Marley makes me want to chew my arm off. Just shit, even Pegasus.

>>17413988
Ford’s team actually crafts scents. Now most of then are fuckin unwearable, but they’re going for something. Marley is soulless, middle eastern throw everything in but the kitchen sink potpourri of nonsense. They don’t take you anywhere.

Herod smells like 10 Indians huddled together at the Clearance aisle of the Banana Republic outlet.

I'm on my 2nd eau d parfum bottle. It's really special. Don't let the shitters here discourage you.

You can't go wrong with Tom Ford

that’s such a dumb looking phone omfg immm

>>17413221
I have both. Sauvage is more of a nightly fragrance. I use it when hitting bars or leathery places. I'm gonna be crude here: it has some sweaty ass vibes. Bleu is a great all around for me. I feel comfortable with it everywhere. The only place I'd feel weird would be maybe in the office, but I don't work LMAO (office anons help me here).

Antaeus is not even half of what it used to be

>>17410652
I don’t like men who wear these colognes they just seem too try hard like I don’t want to smell you are you overcompensating? My legs are closed to you freaks who think you am an non-consensually assault my nose and literal sense of smell

I bought a bottle of eros eau de parfum the other day and got a free versace duffle bag with it. Feels good.

>>17413923
At last someone posts Loewe. You can add Esencia

Anyone with an opinion like this is disgusting, thanks for filtering yourself for me.

>>17414338
you’re the ones chasing and in need of pussy lmfao the mental gymnastics you’re doing is funny

>>17413921
i'm addicted to smells

>>17414338
femanon here
she has a point though
it’s basically assault because it’s nonconsensual
you’re violating our sense of smell, forcing yourself upon us
i don’t understand why everyone in this thread is supporting such disgusting misogynistic behaviour

is sauvage really that bad or is everything here lying

>>17414155
there's a difference between spending 300 on some niche shit that smells like nothing else and spending it on pdm which just smells like run of the mill designer shit

>>17414402

But if the guy only paid 150-200 dollars for it, which is what quality 100ml+ bottle designers go for, then stop fisting his asshole over it.

PDM is fine if you don't pay full price. Spending more than 300 dollars on a scent is fucking retarded.

>defending pdm
This is why the globohomos keep pushing the line
You don’t know when to fight back
Enjoy your substandard products, consoomer

>>17414322
Then I would love it even more

>>17414401
You should go and try it. You might like it.

Personally I find it pleasant but boring and it isn't really what I'm looking for from perfume. Same with most uninspired liquid hawked in blue bottles.

But if you just want to smell of citrus for 5 minutes then thin woody amber for the rest of the day, and not stick out it's fine.

>>17414455

What the fuck are you talking about? PDM, a house claiming inspiration from French Royalty is Globohomo?

Tom Ford is literally a homo and so are the majority of the other big brands.

Jesus Christ, if you don't like the scents or price performance/ratio, it's fine.

But get your mouth off Tom Ford's, Chanel's, and Dior's sasauges.

Dior homme intense is an easy blind buy, nasomatto black afgano and serge lutens ambre sultan have been my latest favorites

To a mall and smell all the other frags.
