I need something similar to Spicebomb, SWY Intensely, Eros Flame but for daytime use and fresher and cleaner and less sweetness. Any ideas? Probably not going to get a chance to try stuff in person until next week but I'm thinking Montblanc Explorer Platinum maybe.

>>17627277

lmfao, that's a list of disgusting fragrances (unless you are truly under 16). anyway, if you want to stick to designer frags, try YSL L'Homme or Hermes Voyage, those are the two only tolerable designer freshies

Is encre noir still good?
On fragrantica people cry about bad performance

>>17627352
Told you already. Caron pour un homme leau or the original, maybe a classic edc like eau de Guerlain or eau sausage. If you want something cheap and similar to eau de Guerlain or eau sausage try op pic related Hattric classic. It’s an aftershave but performance isn’t bad.

>>17627381
I got mine a few months ago and yes it's good and has good performance. It's pretty strong actually. Not sure what people are talmbout, but me personally I only trust people itt about fragrances and nobody else. Fagnatica sounds like reddit to me.

>>17627316
SOTD: Kouros. Weather's been shit, cold and windy, so I get to wear it every day without choking on it.

again wit dis cracker bitch...put her 5 minutes on the sun and she will turn into an indian...LOLMFAO

>>17627277
it's a bit hard to give stuff similar to those, but not sweet because they're all so sweet
for some reason I think you should try Versace Blue Jeans

>>17627381
from my experience the Extreme has okayish performance and the Sport is weak indeed. not sure about the original but I think it's closer to Extreme from what I recall
they're cheap enough and good enough that they're still worth it though

Still have these 3 hidden away. For special dates and such. I think the youngest bottle is definitely the old spice in the middle. It's from like '99.

The other 2 are from the 70's.

Do fragrances degrade over time?

>>17627439
they can degrade, but if they're stored out of sunlight they can be fine even after all that time
if you don't want them anymore, there might be some vintage autist willing to buy them

I tried my Orto Parisi Terroni sample and bros I don't feel so good

My head is spinning. Wtf did they put in this shit

>>17627439
can’t think of a better way of guaranteeing you smell like someone’s dad than wearing old spice

>>17627439
I've some Escada Pour Homme from 1997, and it still smells fine. Pretty much what
>>17627445
said. Sun and heat are the enemy of frags, but if you keep it in a climate controlled dark place they'll last a long time. There are of course exceptions (bad/contaminated batches).

>>17627429
The whole point is not to see what you're picking.

I keep my fragrances on a shelf next to my window. I have no AC. Summers get real hot. All of them are in their boxes, so sunlight is blocked but heat is free game. Are my babies safe?

>>17627482
They're already gone

>>17627482
trash them while you still can

>>17627487
No they're not because I started buying them this winter and we still haven't seen temparatures above 20C.

What do I think of this?

>>17627495

>>17627452
I am somebody's dad. I bought them when I was much younger and they were all that were really available where I lived. The wife quite likes the smell too. I've tried other colognes and aftershaves and she has openly stated that the MUSK by Shulton was her favorite scent I wore. That being said, I am running out.

>>17627454
>>17627445
Makes sense. They're kept in my closet, in a storage box, and never get above 68° f.

>>17627610
not sure, we’re still trying to figure out what the best fragrances for niggers and spics are. we’ll get to chinks right after.

>>17627610
IDK, you're the one who should know what people in your country like. I know the japanese stereotypically dislike strong perfume, no idea how it is where you live

Tom Ford Grey Vetiver. also my SOTD, as it is every weekday because I work in an office. It's not a loud fragrance at all and the few times anyone else but you can smell it, it's very pleasant and clean. my wife always says I smell super clean when I put it on after my morning shower

>>17627642
Kenzo is from Japan, you as an asian it's good for you, Kenzo Homme good for me(i'm not asian)

What fragrance gives off the vibe of "maximalism"?

Yeah ok thanks for the advice.

>>17627703
maybe Black Orchid? Psychedelique? makes me think of heavy, in your face perfumes with complexity and gourmand elements
>>17627710
I can see it. it's very rich and heavy and sensual and decadent

>>17627730
Bro, i'm socially ackward and still get laid regulary on dating apps. How old are you, race, appearence, do you lift weight? Also get unto fresh fragrances, literally girls love them, especially Kenzo Homme.

fucking stop

>>17627743
if his goal is to make everyone hate some mediocre aquatic fragrance it’s working

>>17627746
he did the same thing with bois imperial before
it's too bad because I kind of like that fragrance, I'd rather not associate it with some smelly coomer

>>17627738
I wont use dating aps. Not saying my age. I'm white. I used to be an amateur powerlifter before I got injured 10 times in a row and quit. Fresh fragrances are trash.

which is the worst?
i want to buy one and get the full experience

>>17627757
Hyrax is usually considered the most hardcore. some people also say t-rex

>>17627757
t-rex is the epitome of smoke

>>17627757
i know people love this brand but i will never buy from them because their bottle art is so tacky

>>17627757
is this a meme house? are they supposed to smell bad, or are any pleasant? never tried em

I heard mont blanc explorer is a good copy of adventus, is this true?

>>17627415
2nd from the right

>>17627805
I think Explorer smells like shit, but i've never smelled Aventus. maybe I just don't like the DNA

>>17627764
it's not really a meme house. some fragrances are more daring than others. some are boring. but at least they're daring sometimes. although the reformulated bat is the only prin that i didn't like

>>17627495

any inoffensive everday scents to check out? doesn't necessarily need to be generic. unique can be inoffensive too.

>>17627324
smart move. it will project up the elevator to the board room and they'll be demanding to meet that man who smells so chad

>>17627831
i found bat to be very inoffensive. i dont remember what anything else other than that and t-rex smelled like. but i find them too expensive to wear daily. canuck cunts could've at least put in 50ml

>>17627834

Good taste. It's funny how much something like Dior Homme Parfum performancemoggs Oud Wood. I put it on yesterday, took a shower and still got occasional whiffs of it 24 hours after

>>17627929
This will be a blind buy. It's online only store. It's not specialized in fragances, I just don't want to lose a coupon they gave me.

>>17627939
all garbage

>>17627334
>lataffa asad
Very good

>>17627929
idk about le beau, but coconut is cheap smelling bath and body works lotion tier to me. Eros is a good fuck boy scent. It is very generic cologny and unnatural. I'd get BdC over eros, but eros is a crazy projector too. You can try them on Macys website and return them opened btw

>>17627929

people are genuinely retarded. how could they think LNDH has poor performance? same with aventus. I own new bottles of both and they're both prominent in the air

SOTD for the past two days. Dior homme intense

I don’t care WHAT you guys say. Girls melt when they smell it. The fags too probably

>>17628307
Nice. I also wanted him to try that as well. I hope they deliver and timestamp.

>>17627757
Elephant or Koala. Reviewed them here forever ago. Haven't tried the latest few.

>>17627764
It's a meme because they're not necessarily wearable, but the creator takes himself seriously in commissioning those scents, lucking out on a few. Will eventually buy Musk Deer as it's one I return to.

>>17627859
It's an experience, but not a "I like a bunch of these" experience.

Just blind bought for really cheap at my chemist but I sprayed it on myself and it's pretty mid. I wish I had just saved the money and invested in a niche perfume because every time with these cheapie perfumes I'm just underwhelmed.
I think I'll have to gift this to someone.

>lavender, bergamot
>cappuccino, raspberry, jasmine, cedar, lily of the valley
>vanilla, amber, sandalwood, patchouli

What kind of dude would you gift something like this to? The notes are deceiving, it's definitely a masculine fragrance.

>>17628490
Rochas frags tend to be excellent, so most people would enjoy the smell, but boy is that 'bottle' stupid looking.

pic related: excellent Rochas

>>17628495
I'm a fembot so i thought it would be wearable for me, I actually really like masc leaning fragrances usually. This just is sickly sweet masc, the box is making me really convinced they were just trying to do a Joop Homme moment. I heard good things about Rochas Femme but I'm a bit worried it'll smell tooo old lady, so I'm steering clear. Moustache does look good though.

I really want to get pic related cause I've been looking for a good quality, realistic coffee scent. But I've just wasted $40 on this dumb rochas shit and i'm cranky with myself.

hi jc penneys sephora outlet shills yeah im lookin for a smell that fits a young man in an office job that might hint im goated with sauce in a way adult men understand without dior sauvage versace eros sex desperation smell. something to let people know im an alcoholic faggot but already in a committed monogamous relationship. thinking a grapefruit rosemary smell do you have anything like that?

>>17628500
powerful coffee:
https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Bond-No-9/New-Haarlem-3258.html
the coffee is blended with other shit so sample first.

>>17628510
too sweet. I want a really bitter, woodsy coffee. Thus the interest in the gallagher fragrance, includes some cypress and myrrh.

>>17628507
the answer is simple....DRAKKAR NOIR

I've finally tried Bois Imperial and this shit sucks. Reminds me of CdG Sugi which also does this synthetic-detergent-wood thing but CdG is so much better. Anybody who said this smells like photorealistic woods hasn't been outside since 1997.

>>17628500
are you the techwear tranny?
i'd recommend you a good coffee scent but it's not available in the usa
don't try the ted lapidus coffee scent, it's shit. SM cafe is good but becomes a bit too sweet for me later one, a real shame because the opening is very nice. J.U.S coffeeze is a nice, spicy coffee but too expensive for what it is.

>>17628526
finally someone who agrees

>>17627757
T-Rex is very intense smoke
Elephant (green) and Cow (musk) are pretty good btw

>>17627805
CDNIM EDP is they way to go if you are after a good Aventus clone (or just a good pineapple frag in general)

>>17628507
No, but just thinking about rosemary immediately bring Beau de Jour to mind. Very much the fragrance of a high-functioning alcoholic. During his fall from grace, he will switch to Zino at some point (for monetary reasons) and then start groping teenagers on the subway until he gets arrested. But as long as you can afford Beau de Jour, you're doing fine.

>>17628638
agreed. Beau de Jour makes me think of Don Draper from Mad Men or some other high class alcoholic

Had the chance to test some Rojas, Apex and the new Eau Elysium. Are niche faggots serious? There are designer fragrances that 100% can compete with them.
I'm surely done with going niche exclusively, except for some foresty fragrances. But the famous shilled niche fragrance are def not worth to pay 300+ bucks for it.

>>17628500
you like masculine leaning fragrances because you’re a fucking guy in women’s clothing

>>17628692
roja is not a representative of "niche" in any sense, it's literally the rolex of fragrance market. his only good fragrance is amber aoud.

>>17628725

They're all enjoyable. The Kenzo edt is originally a 90s scent and since i'm a millennial it's nostalgic to me. Similar like Cool Water.

>>17627269
I know /frag/heads don't believe in signature fragrances, but after four years spending lots of money in this hobby, I'm not buying more full bottles. I kept these three frags after selling 27 almost full bottles (cheapest was Cool Water and the most expensive L'Oudh by Andy Tauer, all sold together for almost 2500€):
>cold weather
Polo OG
>hot weather
The Dreamer
>Holy Mass, Easter and Christmas
Eau des baux
What do you think? There were obviously better smelling scents, but I fing these small selection ideal (price/quality) for my age (almost 35yo husband and dad). I kept more than 200 samples too and I'll keep buying decants and tiny amounts of ouds, but I cant justify full bottles that never get empty anymore. The hobby was almost becoming an adiction.

From that pic I'm guessing EDT and Intense are the best for summer?

>>17629281
Yes the edt and intense are perfect for summer. The edp is a bit sweeter and has some soft leather going on
>>17629325
Nah, the edt(90s) is very aquatic, woody, with a little creamy sandalwood. I would say 80% aquatic 20% woody, nothing like BI.
>>17629338
Yeah, cooming to white Barbie girls makes a man happy.

>>17629384
every time you post this garbage people hate the fragrances you shill more and more just on principle.

>>17629222
I haven't read it, but The Ghost Perfumer sounded alright as well

>>17629263
>normalfag
Yep. I have a wife, three kids, a job and also get along with people who aren't into deer testicles smell.
As said, I keep my ouds and other edgy scent at home in small amounts.
>>17629274
>too powdery
Idk... Not on me. Maybe I don't spray much (3 to 5 spriz), but after 30 minutes it's just a subtle soapy bubble
>>17629285
I like your suggested signatures, specially H24. It's the clean scent of our decade and people don't know it. The Dior I didn't tried and Tobacco Vanille is one of the bottles I sold. You would't believe how many men of my age wear that Tom Ford in Italy. It became the Sauvage of the oldfag here.

>>17629436
You can have all of those things and not be a normalfag.

>>17629438
Idk anon. I'm maybe a bit of a coward, but in the life I chose there is no space or time to let the autist me go out smelling like vintage Kouros. I need to place my family and myself in the best possible place. Fragrances are just a hobby.

>>17629443
Dad, you can't place your family in the best possible place while also having a cool little swaggy fragrance collection at the same time?

>>17629377
I fucking love Drakkar Noir, in my book it's the best fougere ever created. Sad there's no improved, niche version of it, it would be my signature.

Cartier Declaration is pretty good bros

>>17629436
>get along with people who aren't into deer testicles smell.
uh anon Polo green has musk notes in it

>>17629450
It's such a nostalgic scent, I don't even know who would've been wearing it around me when I was a kid but it sticks out in my mind.

>>17629358

>>17629452
Right?
>>17629453
Bon Monsieur isn't exactly like DN. Longevity isn't all that good too.
>>17629461
Yes, everytime i smell DN it's like a gateway to amazing days back then in my life.

>>17629017
new york intense
>>17629436
h24 is pretty bad desu, hermes has a lot of better clean/fresh fragrances
>>17629450
bon monsieur?

Imagine buying anything with New York in the name. Like New York intense lmao? Sounds like something that would smell like weed and literal piss.

>>17629473
try duc de vervins l'extreme then, although my bottle seems to have performance issues. it's warmer, slightly less green and more woody than drakkar noir

>>17629476
that's irrelevant because you don't blindbuy like a retarded mfer and sample before you do. it could be called eau de pissandcum, if it smelled like nyi i'd still buy it.

>>17629473

>Bon Monsieur isn't exactly like DN. Longevity isn't all that good too.
I am talking about vintage Caesars World

>>17629446
>little swaggy fragrance collection
I'm talking signatures, but I'll bite.
What would you wear If you were me?
>181cm, fit and preppy middle class clothes (RLPolo, Gant, Camper, Ray-Ban etc)
>work in the health industry (8/10 clients are women from 30 to 70).
>I drive picrel and family car is a V90 from 2020.
>Family guy and Catholic
Which frags. Enlighten me.

>>17629479
Samples are not free and if a sample has New York in the name I'm not buying. No cool name, no cool bottle design = no buy.

>>17629480
Yes, Ceasars Man smells really good, 'bit greener and fuller than DN. Made the mistake to buy a reformulated bottle, last only half an hour.
Al Rehab Dakar is good too, but it's not that refined. But a good alternative.

>>17629487
I'm 190 and fit. I drive a cupra which is basically a golf gti and work in the health industry as well. Hey man if you work on clinical trials we might me colleagues even. I'm also catholic technically even though I'm not too religious. Difference is I'm not a family guy and I don't dress preppy. You and me are almost the same person. Doesn't stop me from wearing Beaufort London, A City on Fire, Rien, Tauer 2 and 5, and a couple of others. Why are people so obsessed over "signatures".

>>17629458
>musk
Yeah, among other 20 notes. Polo never was like Kouros. Also compared with the vintage version (Owned and sold a Cosmair bottle), today's formulation is more balanced, tamed if you prefer. It's still strong by 2020s standards, but nothing offensive.

>>17629487
caron pour un homme and caron yatagan and stop buying VWAG cars

Thoughts on picrel?

Was in a beauty store today and tested some stuff. Just picked this one randomly, and was pleasantly surprised. It is not very daring, but I wouldn't say it's your average blue fragrance.

Also, I once again found out that I generally hate going to beauty/fragrance stores, as I always get a rancid aftertaste in my mouth from all the vapours.

>>17629474
>h24 is pretty bad
I like Voyage too, but h24 is a modern mainstream scent. In that context, I find it more than ok. Not sweet and original, besides being too minimalistic and linear.

>>17629491
your loss

>>17629017
Quorum, but most of us don't know it yet.

>>17629506
didn't really care for it or the extreme flanker. i really like the original pour homme and noir ambre was decent

>>17629510
Call me Mr. L then.

>>17629512
everytime i wear it i'm surprised by how good it is

>>17629520
>>17629512
Don't the citrus notes ruin it or do you guys just like citrus? Maybe the citrus isn't that prelevant or blends well? I am extremely biased against citrus. I hate it.

Fell for the meme, one of the bottles I sold. Too much

Yo my nigga how else am I supposed to know if I've never tried it??? That's why I asked in here but you guys just had to get on my dick about it instead of answering the question. I wasn't mad before but now I am. It's not fair that you did this.

>>17629575
>I wasn't mad before but now I am
You are not prelevant or blend well here. You are extremely biased against us.

>>17629585

Well you shouldn't be here then. Not my fault I'm a homophobe on the homophobic website.

>>17629506
There is a Vetiver note in this really turns cloying and somewhat sour on my skin. I love the original and the Boris Arctic flanker, but ths one didn't do it for me at all.

For me its Yatagan

kenzo homme edt vs edp vs kenzo pour homme?

What are some fragrances that would be appropriate for a summer night wedding, but wouldn't be too "formal" to wear casually on other summer nights too? Something not too common.

I really really liked Paco's Black Xs L'Exces from some 10 years ago, the one with a skull pendant and an ad with Iggy Pop. Where can I find something similar nowadays?

>>17629645
leather sole will always be more formal, get the leather soles for the occasion, then get a cobbler to slap a topy on

>>17629648
Lmao, gotta consoomer spam for the occasion

>>17629645
Caron L'eau Intese

>>17629645
Acrasia?

>>17629645
dont stink up a wedding

>>17629645
For more context I liked Roja Elysium, L'air du desert Marocain, New York Intense and I think Mefisto Gentiluomo when I got some samples years ago.
>>17629659
>>17629660
Thank you
>>17629665
Can't stop me plus I'm a very light sprayer

>>17629690
Don't listen to that littleass kid. Spray big and make a statement. Fuck everyone else at the wedding. Just don't wear some cringe normalfag shit.

Blind buy

>>17629712

>>17627696
Kenzo Homme smells a bit too unisex.

>>17629712
can't see what's blind about buying flankers of one of the most endlessly rehashed fragrances in existence

I am wearing the original spice bomb

What do you guys think about chanel allure edition blanche edp or tf mandarino di amalfi?

but after reading that I suggest you attend the wedding entirely fragless
unscented shower gel, shampoo, all of it
just your pheromones and personality anon, that's all you need
just be yourself and have a good time

>>17629905
Thank you anon, we will certainly have a good time

Does Bvlgari just not do samples? Cause I swear this and the tea ones I want. But no reputable place has them.

Not worthy of the name. Depressing liquid for the Jeremy fragrance contingent.

Perfumery is not for you. Never post in these threads again.

>>17629690
LDDM and NYI are both great choices for your use case

>>17629645
>>17629690
Go with New York Intense. In general, don't mog the bride and groom. It's their wedding. Technically, it's the best if you wear your second best suit, a watch you'd wear to the office and a designer fragrance. NYI still fits well enough, especially if you go light on the sprays.
Gonna wear half a bottle of Chypre Palatin on my own wedding just to make sure nobody can mog me.

>>17629882
Probably another Invictus bullshit

>>17629994
>>17630040
Just to be clear, I was talking about the NYI from Nicolai. Was checking the websites of some local stores and noticed that there's a much more expensive one from Fragrance Du Bois, which I haven't tried.
>Technically, it's the best if you wear your second best suit
The suit I will wear will be made by a tailor they picked, to their specifications, since I am a bridesman.
Honestly I might even get a pure oil mixture from a friend of a friend. They have relatively intimate silage but they last for days, which is what I prefer. His copies are good too, had a Mandarino di Amalfi inspired one that I preferred to the original.
>Gonna wear half a bottle of Chypre Palatin on my own wedding
Absolutely evil

>>17629949
>i'm bio female

>>17630051
I wasn't even aware that there is any other New York Intense other than the one from Nicolai. In any case, the point still stands. Don't mog the bride and groom.

what do I wear on my date today? it's 22 degrees celsius:
>H24
>Neroli Intense
>Voyage d'Hermes Parfum
>Carner Barcelona Fig Man
>Dior Homme Parfum (is it too hot for this?)

>>17630123
Kenzo Homme etd or Bois Imperial or Bogart Story Blue

>>17630123
oh wait I also have Versace Blue Jeans, forgot about that

>>17630123
Voyage or DHP. Would tread lightly with DHP, though.

I got a 10 ml decant of this and I feel ripped off

Just got JPG Le male, it smells a little bit leathery and its summer time here

Would you gus recommend wearing it in summer? To me it smells like it would be great with a leather jacket + tshirt combo

>>17630151
I think it's fine in the summer, just go easy on the sprays

ordered hawas for him im kinda hyped desu

>>17630152
Cheers will do max 2 sprays then

>>17630129
Yeah I think I'll go Voyage. Love DHP and my date likes it too, but it could get tiresome in this weather

>>17630169
It smells like a vanilla pie to me, no animalic at all

>>17630132

It's supposed to be good for the warmer seasons but personally I'd wear it any time I feel like.

>>17630127
retarded spammer

So I was sitting here and randomly I started wondering if there's a vagina scented fragrance. No I don't want to buy one. No I'm not implying it will smell nice. I am simply suddenly very curious.

Am thinking of blind buying Quorum since it costs the equivalent of 12 EUR. Is it comparable to something like drakkar noir? A lot of people say it's very smoky and leathery but otherwise it seems they could share something in common.
>>17630285
Secretions magnifiques maybe? I've also heard of some overpriced gay niche frag that's supposed to smell like a literal asshole (and apparently succeeds at it) so I expect pussy scented smelly water also exists to satisfy the curious virgin

>>17629989
Women outside this thread won't either.

>>17629993
Why? Is it a problem to buy and enjoy samples instead of collecting bottles that never get empty?
Get a life.

>>17630123
Voyage, but put a couple of spritz of Dior inside your underwear. Than me later.

>>17630151
To me it sounds like you will attract men with a leather jacket + t-shirt combo. Get ready anon!

>>17630293
>comparable to something like drakkar noir
It's comparable to Polo OG (same perfumer and year for both frags), but poorer projection and sillage and less "natural" if that means something to you.
Anyway, I own and use both and I will repurchase Quorum when I finish the bottle. If you like the notes, you won't get more for those 10 euros. It's an underrated classic.

>>17630313
I'm sold. Thanks anon

>>17630320
Enjoy it. God bless you.

SOTD H24 EDP
Gonna go run some errands with some friends, film content for them

Been addicted to wanting more frags but I got like 20 already and feel overwhelmed by choice. So ima hold off. Although I do have a le labo discovery set due for delivery today so my almonds are activated

>>17629474
Wrong about h24 TOILETTE. The parfum is a disaster and could hurt the reputation if not pulled.

What are some good budget friendly fragrances that aren't too overpowering? With budget friendly I mean <1 euro per ml, with 30~50ml bottles available.
I find that I get a little nauseous when I wear stronger fragrances. I really like the various somewhat subtle niche fragrances I tested, but that stuff was too expensive for me to wear every day.

>>17630285
Goop - This Smells Like My Vagina. Supposedly the smell of Gwyneth Paltrow's vagina, according to Gwyneth Paltrow.

>>17630370
<1€/mL is basically any designer, even the higher priced ones. You could go to a store and test the entire selection at that price.

H24 is mostly mildly unusual and not that interesting. galop and twilly are way more compelling.

>>17630372
You're incorrect, it's just a retarded name she picked for a completely forgettable normie frag because she wants to sound quirky and "empowered", it doesn't actually smell like a pussy

armpits and pussy are different smells anon
