napoleon never wore 4711, common misconception. he wore farina, not 4711.
the reason he is associated with 4711 is because he made a law that all pharmaceuticals that are consumed need to declare the ingredients, up to this point 4711 was marketed as a "miracle water" that was to be drunk, together with wine or something similar. because they didn't want to publish their ingredients, 4711 became a fragrance.
also farina was the original cologne, there were many disputes with 4711 in the 1800s because 4711 opened their store next to farina with a very similar name.

I am entirely new to frag. Decided to buy the universally "hated" Chanel because it is apparently the best blind buy — not that I bought it absolutely blind — I tried it from a tester at my local retail. Although I think it was perfume or EDP.
To top it off, I bought it from some guy online offering it for 1/2 the price.
Now I am torn because at first, the smell feels really weak. Like I have to put my nose quite close to my hand to even smell it. I have read that some people can barely smell their own frag while they are suffocating others with the smell.
Also, the smell nearly dissipated afted 2,5 hours. Which seems short even for EDT.
The question is, did I get scammed or is EDT Chanel just as basic as they say?

Not him, and not talking about Kouros, but usually I’d just use test strips to figure out what to test, spray the best candidate to my hand or wrist, and then just leave the store to see how it develops in the following hours. It’s rare to see complete revolutions after 2 hours, even one hour usually gives a very good idea, but 10-15 min isn’t enough to figure out anything about the drydown unless it’s some ultra linear fragrance.

Ok coomer, the idea of most fragrances are to make you smell sexy, it's kind of the reason 90% of people buy them. If it smells good on you/her skin then it will typically smell better mixed with sweat. So to answer your question, find one that has musk in it.

Yes, Cedrat Boise always reminds me of older batches of Aventus with more musk and smoke. Recent Aventus is just thin fruit water.

I thought I liked the Dolce pour homme but now after it arrived suddenly it smells way too synthetic for me.
This is the newest 2023 batch. Did they change the formula or what?

Cecrat Boise doesn't have any smoke. Birch tar is what gives Aventus it's smoky quality. There is no birch in CB. Are you talking about Cedrat Boise intense? There's no birch in that either, but I don't own it so maybe it's smoky.

That being said, I prefer CB to Aventus. It's the best performing citrus fragrance I have ever owned. The longevity is fucking retarded good on that one.

I don't like it quite as much as the three I mentioned, but I think it's not bad. I have a decant.
I tried the herbes vives briefly and remember liking it a bit more. it has some of that greenness from the Jardin series to make it more refreshing

The edp lasts longer and has better projection. I would only use the parfum on formal events or date nights that won't last more than 4 hours because by then the scent is gone. Make sure to spray on clothes to make it last longer.

nope. wearing a nice smelly water is nice, nothing less nothing more. calling it a hobby is an indicator that you're living a failed existence and probably a terrible person to hang out with.
