Can I get some fragrance

>>18042008
>>18042009
Do you realize that literally no one in the world uses or has ever used these meme pics to choose their personal fragrance?

>>18042014
i used the guide and read the OP
you are just a bitter noselet (ywnbaw, keep on malding, etc.)

>>18042014
this general is his only claim to relevance in life

>>18042014
Right, those perfumes all look old and strange.

>>18042019
I know, it's sad, but I just couldn't resist to tell him the truth.

Man, stop posting this Nicolai shit. Post a real frag like pic related. Still unbeatable to this date and got me laid 2 months ago

>>18042025
mid

>>18042025
Citrus slop

I really hate BLACK PEPPER in fragrances

>>18042030
that's too bad
>SOTD: Lorenzo Villoresi Piper Nigrum

AVE LAPIDVS NOSTER

How similar is Naxos to JPG Le Male Elixir?
i tried a sample opf Naxos and really liked it, but i hear it's quite similar to Elixir, which is quite cheaper than Xerjoff

>>18041940
nta but here warosudotorg/fa/thread/18040300#p18041756

>>18042039
if you're poor and want a honey fragrance and you don't know any but those two then le male will be a good alternative yes

>>18042030
Lel, yes one of the few notes that i love in fragrances. Nice taste in women.
Sotd His Highness Green

I don't like jpg bottles anymore :/

>>18042045
any other good honey frags you'd recommend trying out?

>>18042056
reyane insurection II wild
ted lapidus pour homme
even cheaper than the le male but better

>>18042056
Try Steading from Pineward

>>18042014
I did.

>>18042019
Who is he? And do you really think it is a single individual? How long have you been here to not know the various OPs? Can't have been that long.

>>18042061
don't give him attention, it just makes his schizophrenia worse

>>18042061
>I did.
You dumb lol

>>18041992
Why would you step down from the edp to the edt

>>18042061
>>18042066
>>18042019
at this point I'm inclined to believe that it's two brothers running this general on alternating sleep schedules

My current all seasons rotation, from spring to winter. Not my complete collection, lots of crap and misfires left out. Where do I go from here? Late 30s dad, in a STEM field in academia.

>>18042071
nice, any old man scent that gets recc'd in the thread

>>18042071
You get a slowly creeping-in middle age syndrome and end up clubbing while wearing PACO RABANNE 1 MILLION EDT or DIOR SAUVAGE EDT.

>>18042007
>>18042008
>>18042009
How is Guerlain Vetiver? Is it any good?
QRD on it?

>>18042079
it's good
somewhat earthy fresh vetiver,
more for older guys if you care about that

>>18042071
Nice collection. You could go for NYI or Jaipur Homme.

>>18042082
>NYI
wouldn't it be redundant in his case though?

>>18042056
Boss number one. Noselets will be filtered.

>>18042093
didn't it get reformulated to shit? it's why I haven't gotten it yet

>>18042080
More for older guys as in a sleazy bastard in a stuffy bowling alley in 1986 kinda way or a "heh, played college ball ya know" kinda way?

>>18042071
Bijan for men
Egoiste

>>18042097
not sleazy at all

>>18042097
more like your grandpa working in the garden kinda way

>>18042071
Not based on your current collection, but just as the stereotype of the frag, TdH EdT seems like a clear cut choice.

>>18042061
nice try schizo

>>18042087
NYI smells more like an old lady's purse desu, they should rename it to Connecticut Intense.

>>18042173
notto disu shitto agen

>>18042025
I’m going to Japan for business. Any other good nip fragrances to check out?

>>18041554

Shill is a strong word but he has certainly advocated for some old school guerlains that's for sure.

Perfection.

Brothers in Christ, what's your frag for wearing to church? I usually go for ELDO Rien or Guerlain Habit Rouge Prive

>>18042209
Kouros, 10 sprays

>>18042195
You’re probably talking about me then.

>>18042097
More like a based grandpa that casually drops nigger with epic stories from a better America or Europe

I'm one step away from buying lalique pour homme because of you all. How does it compare to APH or Paco Rabane Pour Homme?

>>18042236
it's more powdery than fresh

What's the best perfume that will undo my avoidant personality, autism, anxiety and or depression?

>>18042209
>Wearing Rien to church
Damn that's a bit much, do you want to gas your fellow churchgoers? That thing is nuclear and very smoky-animalic, crazy pick for an enclosed space with crowds of people.

>>18042074
Zino, perhaps? I see it pop up from time to time.
>>18042077
Not pictured, the bottle of Y edp that I got a few years ago when starting down this path. Fine, but cloying, especially as my taste has changed.
>>18042082
Jaipur sounds interesting, how does it compare to Egoiste? I see a few similarities on paper, and I wasn't totally sold on Egoiste after trying it at the duty free.
>>18042100
Bijan sounds rad. Thanks!
>>18042141
I got samples of it, the parfum, and eau givree. Kinda liked the parfum best. By far the least projection, but seemed more 'complete' than the edt.

>>18042236
I can’t wear it because the first time I wore it after sampling it I got the phone call that my dad died. I could smell it while driving to the hospital. It brings back bad memories. Should I just throw it in the trash?

>>18042236
Fuggin do it, man. Dirt cheap, comes in 4.2 oz bottles (which are themselves gorgeous, great shelf piece).
Powdery and laverdery at the top, and settles into a very subtle woody-mossy heart. Overall, punches way above it's weight.

>>18042254
Jaipur is not all that similar to Egoiste. It's more floral, more powdery-ambery and has the citrus barbershop top notes, doesn't focus on sandalwood either. I think you might enjoy it

>>18042189
Comme de Carsons 2 Man (japanese designer)
Le 3e de Caron (perf: Akiko Kamei)

>>18042030
Why do they all have the same face?

>>18042236
Lalique PH is great. not really similar to either of those though. more of a creamy woody powdery take on the fougere. a bit like NYI, Bois du Portugal or Heritage
>>18042254
Zino is good too. heavy patchouli on indolic florals and dirty vanilla. I find it a bit more "fun" and casual and less formal than something like Lalique PH. maybe a bit more likely to offend, but there is something to it that some still love, as seen by the success of Beau de Jour, which borrows from this DNA and smooths it out for modern tastes

>>18042253
I wear a few sprays under the shirt. I wear it to the office too. Once it dries down a little it just gives off a nice amber aura I think.

To be honest I've never smelled it on another person so I don't really know what it's like. Maybe I should get my wife to wear it so I know what it's actually like...

>>18042025
>his frag costs as much as Axe bodyspray
couldn't be me

>>18042283
>To be honest I've never smelled it on another person
might be a good idea to keep it that way desu senpai

>>18042025
mine arrived today, it's alright

>>18042285

Awww shit, gonna hit on this feminine boi
Probably wearing Duc de Vervins L'Extreme to it.

>>18042307
>Bon Monsieur but worse
>Drakkar Noir but costs 100 EUR+
great choice, faggot

>>18042268
I have Caron le3 and it’s surprising to me that the nose is Japanese. It’s a loud frag. I’ll check out cdc 2 man

>>18042025
Undefeated undisputed

opinion in louis vuitton fragrances?

May your signature never run dry

>>18042316
Baby's first frag

>>18042328
Based but not for beginners, noselets or poorfags.

>>18042328
this is the 10th time you've asked that question with the same picture, LV is still masstige slop. your implicit shilling won't change that
>>18042209
i wear musk and ambergris to fridays prayer, just like the prophet pbuh did

>>18042329
May your nose smell good scents

>>18042331
That was actually club de nuit

>>18042345
it was my first time posting this i was just genuinely curious

>>18042350
then i'm sorry. LV is still shit though. maybe passable if they were 0.5€/ml

I'm going to do it. I'm going to fucking buy La Yuqawam Homme Rasasi. I'm just going to do it.

easy to wear compliment puller/monster

>>18042353
tuscan leather with raspberry?
if you want to, go ahead

Is leather notes good for you

>>18042366
It tricks your neanderthal brains into believing you've been hunting or own livestock.

>>18042370
I'm thinking based

>>18042354
Ultra male, eros, dylan, BdC

>>18042357
I hate that I really, really do. I need to stop buying bottles. Tuscan leather is too good

>>18042389
I wasn't asking, just spewing some shitty fragcomm buzzwords like last thread

>>18041796
What are your favorite Nicolai fragrances overall?

>>18042393
how many do you have?

>>18042357
It’s rasberry retart

dumb reach oud panty dropper?

>>18042411
with monster projection and also comliment puller?

that's a tough one, gonna have to recommend montale/mancera oud slop #3847

>>18042328
Orage and Pacific Chill are fantastic.

>>18042438
It's orange retart

>>18042393
Tuscan Leather is based. But do you really need woody version of tuscan leather?
Get Ombre Leather instead. It is Tuscan Leather with white flowers.

>>18042337
still designer trash

>>18042439
>retart

>>18042472
Grow up nigger

I think I've finally found my signature scent bros. I can't stop wearing this stuff and everyone around me absolutely loves it as well

>PECTACULAR

>>18042507
Doesn’t this guy only review the absolute most mainstream designer and massitge slop? He’s literally a perfume salesman.

Opinions on this?

>>18042562
opening: wet concrete
mid & drydown: thinly peach? woody aromatic

it's a conceptual rather than natural frag. it is meant to smell like something that is not "of this world"
it is well balanced. it is interesting. but it may be that it is more of a fragrance exercise than a fragrance for use. it smells interesting, but not like what you would like to put on yourself for an event.

i don't think it is office safe. I don't think it is date night safe. I don't think it is public space safe. I think you put this on yourself and think about how good this is in a room alone.

>>18042567

Maybe my best option is to buy just a 5ml decant.

Thank you anon.

Is the ThePerfumeBox a safe place to buy fragrances?

LAYERING:

My signature scent: I'm gonna start this off with my current signature because maybe it will inspire someone to start layering
layering is the one thing that perfumers cannot do - no matter how good they are
all layering is up to you

My current signature:
Base: PdM Herod (sweet tobacco leather)
Mid: Dior New Look (aldehydes, sharp spice, black pepper, thin vanilla)
Top: Pour un Homme de Caron Parfum (lavender and vanilla bomb)

This is a magnificent combo in my opinion. it's always interesting and complements all the sub-components wonderfully.

Layering idea #2 (easy)
base: Encre noir sport (or any deep vetiver)
top: Moschino Toy Boy

deep dark green with the light green and rose of Boy Toy up top. The layers evaporate in order and as the rose and light greens disappear the dark greens of the vetiver start to come out. The layering can be done in reverse to have it become softer, but I prefer this way.

So I'm thinking of buying an everyday frag for whatever. Shopping for groceries or the gym etc. I was thinking of getting a clone. Thoughts?

>>18042616
Ok

>>18042405
current top3 is Iris Medicis Intense, Cuir Cuba Intense and Amber Oud

>>18042209
Murkwood, Mortel, Full Incense

>>18042616
Get Kouros.

>the scent of incense, green pine sap, dry woods, vetiver
Gets me everytime

>>18042025
Based and underrated. I have the discontinued summer 2010 version (green bottle with stripes). Smells a touch more greener and more masculine. L'eau dissey is a great fragrance, my only problem is it doesn't smell masculine enough.

>>18042189
Keiko Mecheri
Di Ser
Hanae Mori
Kanebo
Zoologist
Miya Shinma
Parfum Satori

>the scent of incense, green pine sap, dry woods, vetiver
Gets me everytime

>gets a 1.5ml unofficial decant
>loves it
>thinks of buying a full bottle but decides to take more time with it

>buys a 7.5ml official bottle unopened but secondhand on ebay with the receipt and all
>smells totally different, like a way downgraded version of it
>debates if I should even get the full bottle now

why does this happen? did the seller I'm buying from sell me an expired product or something? should I keep with the decision to get a bottle?

>>18042678
>>gets a 1.5ml unofficial decant
from where?

likely one of the two is fake.
"Official Bottle" - never seen Etat selling a 7.5 ml bottle.
Their samples are 2ml, not 7.5ml.

>>18042616
I'm not gonna give you a recommendation but so far I've talked to every gymfrag wearer and managed to stop them from either wearing their shit ass citrus slop frags to the gym or to tone it down to a single spray underneath their clothes. I have yet to choose the nuclear option where I make the entire gym smell of my strongest frags so I don't need to smell 20$ freshie slop while lifting. That shit is for weak people.

That being said, the only acceptable one so far was a cute girl wearing Let The Good Times Roll, because it made the gym smell like popcorn and I really wanted to lick her.

>Jus De Rose - future baby daddy
>Curly Fragrances - this smells like SEX
Is it really the GOAT fragrance?

>>18042680
>from where?
from a seller where I live. They're usually legit and by the fact it's the better one of the two means the 7.5ml one is the deficit one

they do sell 7.5ml bottle.
is it possibly because the reseller bought the bottle way before and with bad storage method?

>>18042692
forgot pic like a tranny

>>18042680
>Fake

I don't think you understand how counterfeit perfume works. No one is counterfeiting obscure niche stuff, there isn't enough ROI. They're counterfitting the designer blockbusters

What fragrance would he wear?

>>18042678
Probably stored incorrectly or a bad batch. I’d just go for the 100ml from an official retailer, it has a great bottle and you’ll get the right fragrance. Sometimes samples do smell a little different though, and you might need to just leave your official open for a few weeks then try again because of alcohol levels etc.

Blind-buy worthy?

>>18042705
Bois Imperial

>>18042691
no, it's slop

>>18042562
Surprisingly the most photorealistic beach scent I’ve tried. More so than oud minerale and bvlgari aqva. It’s the mineral note that smells oceanic. And I grew up and live in a mid atlantic beach town.

Is it the best cheapie?

>>18042749
no

>>18042749
No

>>18042749
no

>>18042678
My bottle seemed a bit weaker the first week, was exactly the same after.

>>18042749
No

Normies eat that shit up in rl. Check amazon.

>>18042776
prive and lucky

>>18042678
Probably due to an untinted bottle. And maybe heat that fried some of the dna. There's a big thing about maceration/maturing bottles. It's so wide spread that there has to be at least a little something true there. Imo, the consumer is mostly noticing a difference in parfum that has sat in the little tube on the atomizer. Perhaps this is why a fragrance smells different after 10 or so sprays. Not the "maceration".

>>18042786
Wet paper with saw dust sprinkled on curry Ketchup

>>18042691
>Is it really the GOAT fragrance?
yes
>inb4 nichefags seething

>>18042749
no. Get Versace Pour Homme instead

>>18042825
>Versace Pour Homme
Goat'd. Definitely not unique, though

>>18042546
Right now he just shills his cologne brand

Anything worth testing from Blaise Mautin?

>>18042678
>>18042680
>>18042692
>>18042697
Even with the pic, I have to agree that the 7.5 mL is likely fake.

I think the only time I’ve seen them “advertise” those travel sizes was back around Christmas as a “Buy a full bottle, get two travel sizes free” promotion.

Regardless, GitS is a great frag and you should buy a full bottle from a trustworthy source.

>>18042859
im reluctant to get GitS due to it's seemingly lackluster performance. what did you think of it?

>>18042909
nta but if you care about a fragrance's performance you are likely poor and if you are poor you shouldn't be getting niche frags

>>18042920
Nta, but it's the mental capacity of reapplying, carrying/refilling a desecant, and timing the reapplication that is the hassles. Also, more alcohol drying out your skin.

Is effort-posting encouraged/appropriate in the current state of the fragrance general?

Any niche alternatives to Boss Bottled?

>>18042939
the og apple one?
layton I guess

>>18042930
>Also, more alcohol drying out your skin.
is this really a problem?

>>18042933
Cliche, but I believe the way you do one thing is the way you'll do everything else. Excellence, then is a habit. So it depends what kind of standard you're able to hold yourself. And this doesn't mean shitposts are discouraged, but there is definitely varying degrees of shitpost quality. What I'm trying to get at is, do it for yourself, as with every worthwhile endeavor.

>>18042944
Hand sanitizer dries out your hands, so I'd say it's a factor as negligible as it might be.

>>18042942
Yes, the OG. Recently searching on Fragrantica and it's in the same group like One Million, woody spicy with that cinnamon backbone. Never made that connection. Thanks for Layton will try it out.

>>18042950
yeah but hand sanitizer is like 99% alcohol no?
but on the other hand frags also have chemicals
but on the other other hand who gives a shit I like smelling nice

>>18042952
I should also propose layton alternatives because screw giving money to pdm so lalique white in black and al haramain detour noir

>>18042948
I suppose anons will read reviews of frags even if not particularly interested in them since the threads are kinda dead

>>18042955
Eau de parfum is traditionally 15-20% fragrance, with the rest being alcohol

>>18042705
Anything a real rich man wears, something you can buy at a mall like Chanel Pour Monsieur or Dior Eau Sauvage. I think rich people don't wear niche perfumes, these are only perfumes for autistic people.

More and more convinced that niche perfumes are for autistic faggots. Walk into any store in the mall, try any designer perfume like Bleu de Chanel, Acqua di Gio, Dior Homme Cologne, etc. and buy the one you like. You will save a lot of money.

>>18043066
people say shit like this and then you find out what they mean by "niche" is Mancera and Kilian. and then you agree.

what fragrance would fit this "dreamy" girl archetype
key words would be: joy, youth, dreamy, art, energy, pretty, magnetic, gentle, feminine

>>18042025
Should I go for this, or break the piggy bank and get Edition Blanche from Chanel instead?

What's your favorite frag you've sampled in 2024 so far? For me it's pic related.

>>18043087
do you prefer a sharp and tart citrus or a creamy vanilla citrus?
personally I think Edition Blanche is kind of boring and overrated, not to mention Chanel's prices have gotten crazy. if I wanted a gourmandish citrus I'd go for L'Homme ideal EDT or something. or Blue Jeans for the cheap sweet citrus fougere

>>18042909
>>18042920
>>18042930
Good lord. I make one post >>18042859 and leave the thread for a few hours and you all go off on a tangent.

The performance is fine, I would even say above average for such a freshy. Make your own decisions Anon, but if you want advice, you have it. It’s good and worth the cop.

i don't know who the longface is but due to her looks it would be a no.

>>18042725
Yes it's really good

>>18042920
yeah that's not my situation, i just don't want to bother with reapplication. i just don't want to carry a vial around just because it becomes a skin scent within the hour. i don't mind a 4-6h performance, but below that im more reserved.

OK lads I think I'm done. Just bought Boss Bottled Elixir. This one ticks all the boxes for me and I think I can put my fragrance game to rest. Going to sell most of my bottles saved about 4. I'll only buy another bottle when I finish one.

Anyone else have a minimalist fragrance collection?

no, quit shilling this mediocre trash

I'm on a dryspell now, while simultaneously being on testo maxxing. Spritzing Drakkar Noir and Kenzo Homme edt don't make it better.
Fapping keeps me sane for a while, anon.

You'd be better off not watching pornography. Stop hitting the drakar and go for something more sobering

Shitloads of iso-e super and hedione? You tryna make a new Amogus?

I can't imagine the fragrance any further because I lack references.

Gifting perfumes is risky and a bit inappropriate. Chances are you'll gift her something she doesn't like.
Just slap her ass and take her out to dinner.

Is that Napoleon cologne good or just a meme?

Why do you guys hate Montale so much?

>tfw yesterday I broke my Versace Blue Jeans

solid picks, though I think it's better to start with cheaper stuff and sniff the classics before going niche

>>18043714
good fragrance honestly. but only like 15$, I'm sure you can replace it

>>18043709

I found a replacement. I hope it's good.

>>18043810
pretty different fragrance, more sober and classy than the vanilla coke fougere that is Blue Jeans. remember you can just walk to a perfume store and try it before buying

Is this an Aventus clone?

>>18043563
GITANES smell horrible why would you want for your loved one to smell like a TZIGANE?

>>18043364
Yeah I might do. I still like having a small number of frags for diferent situations and moods.

>>18043224
Sounds cringe but yeah, I have 2. One is regular beard oil for men, smells cedar. Use it for most of my frags that smell traditionally masculine, citrus woods, most cold weather scents too.

I also have a body oil that is lavender jasmine grapefruit marketed towards women , got on clearance and use it for a beard oil. Anytime I wear anything super green, floral, or something that has jasmine I use this one. They also make drag free beard oils. Hope this helps.

>>18042007
Sweet Grass is mine. Now I shall smell like a sweet dry late summer field and an oncoming allergy attack.

buy a bottle of Zino or Lalique Lion instead
I don't really get the point of these 300$ fougeres

Last time I grew my beard I lasted 8 months or so. Quit doing it the day I realized my routine took longer and I was falling into vanity.
Beard oil sounds like faggot shit.

Has anyone tried Esencia pour Homme Eau de Parfum from Loewe?

why does this smell like piss on skin but heavenly in air

I’ll let you sniff my feet for ten bucks.

what fag, mad because ONE (1) spray of basic bitch eros absolutely mogs all of your "esoteric" $175 tobacco tweed virginity sealant? guess I would be mad too if there were millions of normies who smell better than me without even trying lol

>>18043962
idk but they sent out samples months ago. it's alright
>>18043980
neither

>>18044063
eros is on the shit side of mid and the only thing it mogs is your mother (as she has to smell it every day)

>>18044013
yes

>>18043640
imo it's a good start
find what you like from the bunch and go from there

>>18044077
>eros is on the shit side of mid and the only thing it mogs is your mother (as she has to smell it every day)
actually, my mommy loves it on me. coincidentally, your mommy loves it on me too. now that I think of it, "eros" backwards is usually how her asshole feels shortly after she gets skullraped by my massive sillage.

describe it, is it worth blinding it?

>>18043992
This. Lalique pour Homme specifically as I find it a far better fragrance than zino.

>>18044085
you're wrong but I would like to hear your reasoning please

>>18044079
>"eros" backwards is usually how her asshole feels shortly after she gets skullraped by my massive sillage
thanks for the chuckle
still not making you any less of a noselet tho
also not making eros any better than shit
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

what does she smell like

what do we think?

>>18044113
Kenzo Homme edt

>>18044118
Top tier fresh, skin, musk, a cold smooth synthetic note and bittersweet yuzu, everything from the scent to the bottle is gorgeous and unique.

>>18044085
NTA but I also prefer the Lalique. Zino is still an easy recc at its price point though and they're hardly redundant. Lalique is a bit more restrained and classy than the screaming patchouli, florals and dirty vanilla of Zino.

>SOTD

>>18044132
are you wearing TdH while robbing houses or something?

>>18044118
ghost in the shell, more like piss in a bottle

>>18044089
This anon >>18044131 pretty much sums it up. Zino is a bit of a mess to my nose. LpH smells far better put together.

Are Lalique PH and Bijan different enough to justify getting both?

>>18044141
Nothing alike.

What am I doing wrong? I layer 15 sprays of Dior Sauvage Elixir and 12 of Megamare and it lasts only 72 hours. Do you have a similar experience? How to fix

>>18044157
based retard
(btw the fix is to spray more)

>>18044157
add 20 sprays of Le Male Elixir into the mix. make sure to use the first batch for maximum performance, they reformulated it after 2 months and it lasts 47 hours instead of 48 now (literally unusable). get on it before it's discontinued!

Ard Al Zaafaran Al Dirgham
or
Armaf Odyssey Aqua
I'm leaning towards the latter as I love mint.

.

>>18043640
Don't feel bad if 3/4 of these smell like shit. You will definitely love one of these and wear it all the time.
I can recommend you lurk moar and buy maybe two batches of 5-9 samples from one designer in the future for 10-18 samples+the ones you already have. Go back and compare. And then graduate to buying 3x4mls on fragrance company websites (which usually gets you two 1mls for free and maybe 1-3 random for 4mls for free, too. Nicolai has a bundle on their site, and some other companies do this too, where you can pick from most of their fragrances 3 15mls for 80-90 bucks.)

>>18044118
It’s great. >>18044125 summed it up well.

>>18044118
its mid tier, amazing on paper but too subtle and synthetic on skin

smells like bath and bodyworks lotion for most of it

Do some people really trust recommendations on 4chan?

>>18044342
apparently yes
we should have the /b/ header on top of all boards for the newfags and autists but it's just too much fun to laugh at them

>>18044336
Kek, are you only friends with fragrance autists? Montale IS pretty shitty though. I thought Café Intense and Blue Matcha would be nice but they smelled like crap in the store.

>>18044348
Montale smells good but you have to let it dry down for MINIMUM 4 hours otherwise the tonka will annihilate every sinus within 100m radius

>>18044141
yes buy both

>>18044336
noone ever recommends mastige shit and if you buy it it's on you retard

What more do you need?

>>18044360
montale is atrocious chemical shit
in your scenario i should wake up in the middle of the night to spray it and go back to sleep so in 4 hours its bearable

>>18044385
yeah who would do that hahah that's so retarded haha

>>18044381
both the chart and the flowchart have M*ntale frags listed but you get what you deserve if you blind buy them instead of lurking and/or using your nose

thoughts?

>>18044396
good if you love tonka, less so if you don't, overpriced
