How does Rien Intense compare to just Rien? I like just Rien a lot. It's godlike, but Intense has a cooler bottle.

I'm not buying frags for their bottle, but if a bottle is ugly I'm not buying.

>>17656579
That's one reason I hate Arab frags, their bottles look so stupid.

I got my hands on an Light Blue Italian Love flanker and now I'm dumbfounded to why they won't make this a permanent in their line

Ive smelt it here and there whenever Ive gone frag shopping. Right now don't want to spend too much on a new bottle, or samples. Feeling sad and need a dopamine hit

has anyone here tried to make their own frag?

>>17656819
I just made one as I read your post but it only lasted like 30 seconds.

Looking for a frag that is cool and fresh, expensive smelling but with a darker edge. Black linen, summer night in a lounge bar kind of vibe you know
Not EN Sport, something with longevity and sillage please

>>17656827
>darker edge
what do you mean by this, can you give an example? amber? leather? spicy?
>something with longevity and sillage please
montabaco intensivo, r'oud elements (very underrated), m7 fresh come to mind

>>17656827
unironically sausage elixir since you intend on larping as james bond

>>17656841
idk, some frags just smell dark to me and some smell more luminous and airy. Like L.12.12 is very "light" fresh while something like philosykos is also fruity but darker. Hard to explain, it's a vibe
>montabaco intensivo
I like the tobacco note in this one but the overall frag isn't for me.

I live on the riviera so it's ok

what frag if i want to smell like a filthy semite?

>>17656623
Same. God bless you.

>>17656827
Not one to shill it usually, but Bois imperial sounds like what you want. It's a "dark green woody spicy" sort of fragrance that is still fresh and it's very strong

>>17656827
Guerlain Heritage EdT if you have the balls.
Beau de Jour if you want to play it safe.

>>17656873
I actually got a BI decant a few months ago. It's interesting, but not something I want to smell on myself. It's too "asexual" to me, the sparkly, spicy woodiness is not my thing. I think akigalawood is a note that smells good but I get bored of it when I smell it all day

>>17656874
Green frags with mossy notes and such end up smelling medicinal to me but I'll try both of those anyway

>>17656878
Based decision, because they aren't that green. Also test the regular Egoiste, I know that sounds wild because people will say bs like "it's a winter frag, you can't wear that in the summer", but the spicy sandalwood is very creamy and dark without being too powdery or sweet, fits black linen in a lounge perfectly.

>>17656852
>Hard to explain, it's a vibe
try r'oud elements if you can, it's god tier

>>17656886
Yeah I don't really care about the summer/winter distinction as long as it doesn't smell overpowering and overly thick in high heat. It gets hot here
>>17656892

No I haven't tried that yet. Shall I give it a go?

>>17656827
Eau Sauvage Parfum sounds like something you'd like

>>17656972
Yeah you should. I was asking because I was wondering how 05 would compare to Rien Intense if you're saying it's stronger on the incense, and more natural whatever that means.

I wanted to buy Hermann but then I found out that it's allegedly their most sold fragrance and now I'm put off.

>>17657001

>>17657102
yes, but only if you see a good price

>>17657104
I'm not like that. It's important to understand that these stigmas matter. That's exactly the reason that d'orange changed the fragrance to clean suede and gave it a non homo design after the previous iteration's license ran out. To profit. So people like me that didn't buy it before would buy it now.

>>17657126
My favorite is Percival, among those is the most appropriate for summer. I honestly wouldn’t spend 130€ on that kit. My advice is to buy the discovery set that comes with 2ml samples, and invest the money in a full bottle of the sample that you like.

>>17657116
Ok I am not every poster in here clearly and a couple of those are insulting to me so please refrain from calling me those in the future. Thanks in advance.

holding the 5floz bottle right now. Iris&Lavender+Suede powdery fresh. This can be considered a 'blue', and it's very easy to wear, but If you have Prada L'homme already then I think this is fairly redundant. It takes the L'homme, beefs up the lavender, puts a bit of citrus on top of that and adds a touch of salinity to create the 'oceanic' effect. I think I got my big boy bottle at a discounter for fairly cheap on a sale.

SOTD: Un Jardin Sur Le Nil

>>17657290
Based DHI enjoyer. Actually wore it yesterday (28°C).

>>17657346
I can see both of them working, too, but I mostly focused on the darker edge/black linen/expensive smelling thing, because cool and fresh sounds like dull and boring to me. Habit Rouge might actually fit very well, while 3e smells like the "same situation, but white linen" to me.

>>17657512
No. You just like other things (or maybe picked the wrong ones).

>>17657552
"Overrated" is a weird concept. It used to be a powerful sweet masculine fragrance. That is what made it popular. Easy to like on the first sniff, easy to project it around you, easy to not get confused for a feminine fragrance despite the sweetness. If they amped up the leather and toned down the sweetness in a flanker, it would probably be well received. It was a good fragrance for its price point if all you wanted to do was to smell good at a club. Other than that, it is a great litmus test. The worse smelling clone of it - Halloween Man - gets better ratings across the board. That's because people don't actually hate the smell, they hate the fragrance (for its popularity etc). Based on its ratings, it is therefore criminally underrated.

>>17657661
You have allergies, my friend.

SOTD Giorgio for Men. Actually applied it yesterday evening after the gym, and since it's a holiday today I haven't been in the shower yet, and since it's Giorgio for Men, I still smell strongly of it. Eternal beast mode cheapie right there.

>>17657713
he is right

>>17657716
>The worse smelling clone of it - Halloween Man - gets better ratings across the board. That's because people don't actually hate the smell, they hate the fragrance (for its popularity etc).
sounds more to me like people tend to overrate obscure things and 1 million is correctly rated.

>>17657716
>You have allergies, my friend.
I don't have symptoms around trees or something like that.

>>17657726
Allergies don't just manifest around trees, it cannot be understated how the fucking plant cum is EVERYWHERE in the air for months straight every year. You can't run away from it unless you hole yourself up in the LA subway or something.
Although none of this really matters because you've probably just got a cold and the guy you're replying to is an ESL who didn't understand what you said.

>>17657732
I based my allergy comment around
>always fucked
Colds tend to last 2 weeks. Any longer than that and it's probably an allergy.

Loewe Solo Cedro is so fucking good. It satisfies my need for a fresh, musky masculine fragrance similar to the Aventus drydown. But with Solo Cedro you skip the pineapple and go directly to the powdery, musky drydown with some dry cedar.
Makes me wanna to have sex with myself.

I refuse to be a normalfag.

My new bottle (refillable) bottle of Bois Imperial requires a lot more "pushing" to get a spray of the fragrance, and the spray is slower than in my last bottle. How could I fix the sprayer to be quick like in the last bottle? Idk if this is a common issue in frags in general?

>>17657815
I think I heard someone say they changed their sprayers some time ago

>>17657815
this is what you deserve for falling for meme fragrances

>>17657824
Kek, it is my 2nd bottle already, and personally, the most enjoyable fragrance I have ever used. Plus, I have never gotten as many compliments with a fragrance ever. 8)

>>17657821
Now they have the refillable bottles so it might be that, but honestly, the old one's spray was much better

I fucking love the drydown of Aventus. Musky(like a second skin), oakmossy-green/fresh, slightly fruity. I salute to the Avenuts shills, it's one of the best fragrances ever made.

SOTD HoM Albatross. Finally an aquatic that rivals Kenzo Homme EDT. Pretty good, not a beast or anything, but very pleasant. Going to see how long it lasts.

>>17658028
i fail to see how shitty fag music or fashion has any relevance to fragrance.

>>17657979
Got some nice stares and smiles. Probably because of lifting and the epic musky drydown of Aventus.
>>17658116
Have a sample of Albatross, going to check it out later. Kenzo homme edt is unrivaled.

Yeah Clean Suede aint it. I got hit on by two twinks, three daddies, and one tranny. One goth bitch, but she was obese. The one cougar wasn't interested, so this fragrance is a fail. It's been decided. It's not that good on skin anyways. The vanilla ruins it too. Leather plus vanilla is such an overrated combination. Rien it is. Now I gotta decide between Rien and Rien Intense. I went to the new fragrance store which had it so I can test it out, but they closed like 10 minutes after I got there. So gay.

>>17658278
Hm...true. Maybe it is just the ever on-going reformulation woes of every house, which combined with the high price of Creed stuff cause a certain worry to get sub-par batches, and due to marketing as the ultimate masculine compliment getter, it just happens to be Aventus.

>>17658290
aventus came out in the 2010s though, i doubt it’s already been IFRA’d so soon, so any reformulation would be down to cheapening material cost (not out of the question for a company like creed). i still have trouble wrapping my head around how aventus specifically turned into the closest thing there is to a hypebeast fragrance, but i digress.

>>17658287
I'll permit you to post your fragrance collection now.

Kenzo Homme Intense and EDP are shilled so much here that the normal EDT (which is really just the 1990 version rebottled apparently) flies under the radar.

I wore my sample today and man, I'm quite surprised by how good this is. It smells masculine but not in an in-your-face way, it's understated, very fresh but with no hint of sweetness, just water and woods. It's different from most aquatic frags, there isn't an obnoxious watermelon or cucumber note here. The vibe is more of a rocky cliff with firs and pines getting battered by waves, rather than the usual sweet citrusy aquatic.

Only thing I dislike about it is that both the projection and longevity seem very poor. I had to splash almost the full sample on me to smell anything more than a faint watery note.
If anyone knows of similar frags with better performance, please do tell

>>17658301
sorry, i’m not interested in unsolicited requests.

>>17657547
My only other fragrance in pre 2019 Dior Homme , I was looking at Ocean because I wanted something more summer appropriate.

>>17658305
>ducking the smoke

Yeah that's what I thought, pussy.

>>17658309
try this on tinder and see how far it gets you with the hoes. or i guess grindr would be more your speed.

>>17658195
It certainly is so radical it almost seems like reverse psychology to make you hate it that's for sure.

>>17657290
Looks like the kids are having fun. Nothing inappropriate happening. Why would republicans be having an aneurysm over this?

>>17658313
I don't use tinder. You're clearly underage. Finish high school. Get a job. Save up some money. Buy 3-4 fragrances. Post your collection here. Until then you're just some kid.

>>17658317
Why would you bring republicans up all of a sudden?

>>17658331
>I don’t use tinder
that much is obvious, hence my correction shortly afterward. we all know you don’t swing tinder’s way.

>>17658336
You are a literal child. You haven't even seen tits in real life yet.

>>17658343
mantits, as appealing as they may seem to you, generally don’t count as tits to normal people. so unfortunately for you, your own words apply to yourself moreso than anyone else.

>>17658347
>his gay brain hears tits and starts thinking about men

You haven't even posted a fragrance yet.

>>17658364
what can i say, i’m just catering to your tastes. can’t fault me for trying to be relatable, can you?

Ok guys I get that it's gay month but go find a closet. What's your sotd? I sprayed some Byzantine Amber on my wrist, it has a bit of a Play-Doh opening which is odd but the drydown is pretty nice and smooth

>>17658293
Creed use the finest ingredients which explain the variety of smell in the batches. Heard that batch 2022 & 2023 are performance beasts again.
>>17658303
Indeed, the edt is the best. Just spray more.

>>17658367
Stop the damage control kid. You can get like 30 bucks from your mom for a cheapie. Just do you a few chores dumbass.

>>17658382
damage control for what? if i’m not doing a good job relating to a homosexual feel free to let me know how to do better next time.

>>17658385
>feel free to let me know how to do better next time

Post a fragrance.

>>17658386
but i don’t have any homosexual ones like le male or kouros. i doubt anything in my wardrobe would appeal to you.

>>17658390
Yeah you clearly don't own any and are just some poorfag kid that browses fragnatica all day.

>>17658394
sorry my fragrances are all geared towards heterosexuality, you might have better luck with someone of similar sexual appetites instead.

>>17658376
apparently creed’s ingredients are so fine that their devoted following regularly has to vet their fragrances for them, rather than it being done by QC at the factory. truly, quality beyond what even the like of chanel or guerlain could imagine.

>>17658404
Official statement from Creed:
"As you’d be aware all Creed fragrances are made from the finest available ingredients, sourced and selected from producers around the world by the Creed family. In every case each perfume will be composed principally of natural oils. These will account for around 40% of the ingredients, in some cases more. Traditional methods of infusion and distillation are used to process them and much work is still done by hand."

>>17658398
proof?

>>17658417
because creed is the only fragrance company in the world to source and use natural oils. surely not total hogwash.

>>17658418
well, it only makes sense that a fellow homosexual would own perfumes designed to appeal to other homosexuals. i doubt i’d need a source for such a simple train of thought.

>>17658417
A fancy way to say "our fragrances are 40% natural just like everyone else's and also we have no QC"

>>17658428
although this is the fashion board, a fragrance thread is a bit of an odd choice for posting selfies.

A fragrance thread is a bit of an odd choice for not posting fragrances.

Can you two get a room already? Jesus why have the last three threads beenderailed by some two insufferable faggots having a heated domestic dispute.
Take this shit to /LGBT/ already.

>>17658441
indeed, which brings us back to the topic of an intensely queer subculture called gothrock having no bearing on fragrance.

>>17658166
Better than Guerlain? Which house are you referring to? But these are my reasons for Guerlain
>I like the history
>I like how they smell
>easy to differentiate vintage bottles from now jew owned and manufactured bottles
>not popular so inexpensive to buy second hand.

>>17658443
This is my first time arguing with some faggot in here. Had to stop replying because he has no perfumes.

>>17658457
hard for me to be a faggot without any homosexual perfumes. maybe look inward for the source of your woes.

Lil bro still hasn't made a single post about perfume.

>>17658465
please, reserve the nicknames for your rentboys, they’re very creepy in any other context.

>>17658390
Kouros is probably the most aggressively straight cologne ever made.
Not sure what I’d say is the most stereotypical gay fragrance, but it’s not gonna be an ‘80s powerbomb haha

>>17658485
kouros, especially in the marketing, has always been intensely homoerotic, not outright homosexual like le male but clearly implicative of unusual sexual proclivities. surely you didn’t think that buff nude men everywhere was a symbol of heterosexuality, right?

What are fragrances I should sample that are /fa/ apptoved, I've heard people like Bois Imperial. Any others?

>>17658491
you seem to know a lot about homsex

>>17658501
it is only wise to learn thy enemy

>>17658498
Bois Imperial, Aventus, Kenzo homme Edt

Is it true that Aventus is only hyped by men but that girls don't give a fuck about it
What about CDNIM though

>>17658513
if you have to ask…

>>17658498
BI was mostly posted by one guy here, but I like it too, it's nice. Just wore it on a date with gf today.
There is also Neroli Intense and Kaszebsczi Mech as far as oddly popular fragrances on here go

>>17658513
Just buy Aventus. Heaed recent batch are sexy as fuck. Don't trust clone brands, literally using cancer causing ingredients.
>>17658517
A man of culture.

This hobby is such a scam deodorant is fine you guys are like definitely the generation in the rich family that loses all the family wealth lmao

Which Pineward fragrance is the moth gothrock?

>>17658551
I know perfume is overpriced but just get a job bro. Deodorants are trash.

>>17658551
Jokes on you I'm already poor

>>17658551
Kek I am like that

Damn bros I think I'll really just end up dropping 200 bucks on ELDO.

>>17658557
Don't be poor.

how do i actually buy a perfume? every single one that gets suggested i check reviews and theres always a bunch of people saying it sucks. yes ive sampled popular designer frags in stores and nothing really impressed me.

>>17658566
Buy tiny decants online or go smell more and more. And if you don't like anything it's time to move on from perfumes

>>17658491
I haven’t seen the ads, just going off of the stereotype of who wears it.
I’d assume a gay frag would be something like Ultra Male, very sweet and kinda whimsical. Might be biased because the bottle is a literal gay sailor though lmao.

>>17658592
i mean, le male is just outright a homosexual signature scent, no way around it. kouros is not nearly on the same level (what else is, honestly?), but it was still marketed in a very homoerotic way. the other fragrance that strikes me as being surrounded by homosexuality is antaeus, since that one has historically been worn by gays before le male existed.

>>17658566
>he has no perfumes

lmaoooooooo

>>17657290
Jesus is this a special fag school that their parents sent them to or is this a normal public school?

>>17657597
Can you bitch about it if your kid goes there?

>>17657843
based

Mugler Cologne (now called come together) smells like a high quality version of 4711. It has shit performance obviously, but I really like it. Funny enough Neroli Portofino costs hundreds more and it smells just as cheap and shitty as 4711.

>>17658566
some people will talk shit about every fragrance out there. just sniff them and pick one you like, reviews are almost useless, especially the ones on fragrantica

>>17658607
That's a normal school, groomers have infiltrated schools all across the country.

>>17658622
This. People on the internet constantly give advice and opinions on fragrances they've never tried or even seen irl. A lot of these people also don't have any collection whatsoever.

>>17658622
ok yeah thanks, ill just buy a big sample pack and see instead of falling for memes

Any Canada anons know the best place to buy samples/decants? I know Etsy has decent ones.

>>17658026
I remember looking around for musk-styled scents in the fandom in 2020. I found a lot of "strawberry wolf" and "cinnamon fox" style perfumes that just had an unrelated scent and furry art on the label (which are cool!) and really wished there was something more for musk fetishists. Hence, HUFF was born! Our 2021 Kickstarter was funded in fewer than 24 hours! Our season 2 Kickstarter at the end of 2021 was also backed! And we've loved working with people to create unique scents.

HUFF is an erotic furry fragrance/perfume/aroma company, led by Thurston Howl and Yagi Badboi. Our season 2 saw us adding Negy to the art team, too. Weasel handles our shipping and packaging.

There are lots of fursuit perfume companies out there, but what we've noticed is that these companies don't appeal to those with musk fetishes! So these perfumes/aromas/colognes are meant to be used for erotic play.

Imagine if your fursuit's armpits could actually trigger some of that musk fetish?

Or if your partner's footpaws reminded you of a werewolf's?

Or if your underwear could have an all new layer of animal musk?

Each bottle is 30 mL and functions as a spray bottle. Each perfume is oil-based, so keep that in mind for your applications. Each perfume has a unique aroma combination, based on the character label, and each bottle has an NSFW label.

bro.........

>>17658069
Where do you people live for there to be gay guys hitting on you? I've never seen a real one in my life.
Asking for a friend.
Me

>>17658687
I'm obviously joking. Nobody is hitting on me.

>>17658692

frangrancebuy has some 10ml decants if the manufacturer makes them

>>17657238

Has anyone tried the ghost in the shell from them?

>>17658708

i'm not a furry BUT i kind of want to sample them
but you're right maybe i'll dm him that lol

>>17658711
it wasn't available for the cheap price on all notinos, iirc only italy and spain or something

This happens in both America and Europe, the difference is that Europeans who call trannies out on their bullshit will actually get arrested for it.

>>17658589
>And if you don't like anything it's time to move on from perfumes
I have the opposite problem. I like most everything have now I can't buy any new frags because I didn't really have room to store them anywhere in the first place.

I moved to Philadelphia recently and apparently there is some storefront here, Perfumology, that is chock full of niche fragrances, including 2ml and 2.5ml samples. Here are the brands they carry. Any additional brands they carry worth checking out in addition to:
>Escentric Molecules
>Etat Libre d'Orange
>Imaginary Authors
>INITIO
>Parfums de Marly
>Rogue Perfumery
>Tauer Perfumes
>Xerjoff

>>17658668
I don't know if they ship to leaf land, but I've had nothing but good experiences with fragrancesline, and I've got something like 30-40 decants from them.

>>17658995
Masque Milano is pretty good

>>17658710
>>17658998
Thanks for the recs

>>17658995
Ormonde Jayne
Marc-Antoine Barrois Ganymede obviously
Lubin has some good stuff

>>17658995
House of Matriarch: Black No. 1 (Leather), Eaglewood (Oud), Devotion (incense), and Albatross (Aquatic)

I got Cool Water like that one anoni said. Good stuff, but now I smell like literally everyone in the office. Any other recommendations for summer office frags? Want to smell unique, in a good way.

Let's have some brut love, anyone who knows it, always thinks of the green stuff. They have so much more in their range.

>How to describe this, it is a Spicy, Musky scent, makes me think of burning leaves and bonfires

This sounds bretty good, no?

>>17659009
Carven Le Eau Intense. Blind bought it because it seemed like the notes were what I was looking for. Very pleased so far. Bonus, it will layer with Cool water well, but don't overdo it.

>>17659017
wdym by layering? First I apply cool water and then I apply your recommendation? That sounds like an awful lot of perfume, no?

Newfag here. Can you guys explain to me why Dior Homme is the gayest fragrance ever made. You guys always call it Dior Homo.

>>17659038
It smells like lipstick.

Recommendations for someone who likes Spicebomb(EDT and Extreme). I like cinnamon, pink pepper, Orientals etc.

What should I try?

>>17659056
I think you should try Superman by Al-Rehab desu

>>17659004
oh and shoperfumes.ca has a bunch of samples you can order

You really start to appreciate Acqua di Giò Profumo when you smell all the shitty fragrances out there

>want to buy Acqua di Parma Colonia Intensa
>smells fantastic, exactly what I want in a summer scent
>sample doesn't last 10 minutes on me
Do I give up on it or did I just get a bad sample
I ordered from theperfumedcourt

>>17659116
it’s an eau de cologne, what were you expecting

>>17659117
Colonia lasts for hours on me. I was expecting at least a similar longevity.

>>17659119
well today you learn that AdP literally have one scent of value that their entire brand rides its coattails on

>>17659122
I like Intensa more though

>>17659124
sucks to be you i guess, there’s no way to make a fragrance last longer on skin than it already does.

>>17656569
Any recommended dupes to pic related? Valentino uomo born in roma yellow dream, I got a free sample when buying decants and god I love the smell but not ready to throw another 200 for a new perfume

>>17659116
put some vaseline on your skin and pray it on that

>>17659131
Buy a 50ml bottle from a discounter for like $70

>>17659131
I own this. Trade me something

a part of me weeps when i realize that, of the great houses of the 20th century, dior is the one that has done the worst job taking care of its classics. diorella and diorrissimo were apparently too beautiful to be kept as intended on shelves. what a pity.

>>17659020
sissy

>be me
>bought CK Free
>go to Fragrantica
>jackfruit, coffee
What an odd combination. It still smells good though.

>>17659038
mostly projection. same reason why le male and kouros are also the gayest fragrances ever, for example. with le male it is the bottle (make closeted faggots insecure) and the marketing and with kouros it's the smell (smells like public toilet homosex) and also the marketing.

>>17659056
Opium?

>>17659038
it's just a recent forced meme
historically we've long decided that the most gay fragrance is actually Ultra Male

>>17659038

Guerlain eau de Guerlain
Guerlain imperial

ugly watch, uglier fragrance. one of the worst aromatic fougeres, and that’s saying something.

Can I make a perfume last longer? I have been trying Terre d'Hermes Eau Givree, it smells great but barely lasts 2-3 hours. If this is possible, I'll get a retail otherwise looking for recommendations.

>>17659020
Other way around, but thats why I said don't over spray. 1-2 of each should do you for most of the day.

>>17659324
no, you got scammed by jean-claude’s watery shite lmfao

SOTD: Tauer Incense Rosé
awesome, main notes are incense+rose (wow) and tangerine (or something similar), unisex maybe a bit feminine
similar to quite a few other Tauer frags I tested (vertiver dance, rose flash, orange star), but this is the best of this bunch

Bought Replica LSM last week. Kinda mixed on it. I really like the scent but it has weak sillage and projection.
Clean + Musky is a niche I really wanted filled, and side-by-side I like this more than Skin by Clean because the musk is stronger and it has a bit of a dirty patchouli in the base. But I put on a pretty good amount last night and then just forgot about it.
Am I trying to have my cake and eat it too? Y'all know anything that's musky but also fresh and has good sillage?
