What the fuck is going on?

Effay, I sweat a fuck ton just in general. Not enough for hyperhydrosis but enough for me to be self conscious. Anyways to stop or minimize sweating in the day?

>current cologne is John Varvatos USA
>don't hate, my ex girlfriend picked it out because she liked it.

>>8289828
Helium.

I use L'eau Par Kenzo
perf for hot days

>>8289793
you'll have to go out and try them.
there's no point in telling as different scents work for different people.
just go out to some store, try a ton of perfumes and keep in mind the ones that you like, then find them online for cheap.

>>8289758
>eating cigarettes

>>8289839
Oh, I thought the girl is smelling Odeur 53's foil
wrapping. Silly me.

Best deodorant ever.

>>8289812
Tell me about the dreamer, I heard it dries down very nice, how long does it last for?

mont blanc legend

Brut is p nice

odourless deodorant and dior homme usually

>>8290014
not that guy

I love the smell, but it seems to wear off pretty fast on me. Must be my skin, since most perfumes do this

my spring/summer daily

Just got this in yesterday, I'd been wearing a sample of it I picked up at the mall for a couple of weeks and got a lot of complements on it.

For summer:
Diptyque Philosykos EdP
Terre d'Hermes EdP
Diptyque Tam Dao

Fall/Winter:
Comme de Garcons Man 2

>>8289786
did she die?

>>8289793
If you go to the mall, I know Sephora will let you take home little spray bottles with each scent you want. Go get those and try them on. Each last a few days. Pick the one you like the most.

>>8290454
I copped this myself a few weeks back.
What does /fa/ think of it?

>>8289580
I'm alergic to Green Irish Tweed.
Feels bad man.

>>8290454
that's toilet cologne for your toilet

HUGO BOSS or Issie Miyake

>>8290454
I use Montblanc Legend too. I picked it up at an airport in the Winter of 2012 and i've gotten nothing but compliments. Good purchase

all day everyday

>>8290748
how's it different from normal Dior Homme?

Last ones I got were Terre d' Hermes and Voyage d'Hermes and I think they're both pretty great for the summer. If you want to pull mad bitches, try Versace Eros.

>>8290764
never owned normal, sorry.

>>8290765
>If you want to pull plebs, try Versace Eros.

fix'd

>>8289389
same here

Wonderwood. Best perfume I've had.

>>8289331
found this stuff in my car after my dad drove it and took it since he never asked for it back.
might be a little plebby but i like it a lot

>>8290786

Plebs are bitches too, anon. D-Don't be so discriminating.

But you're right, the only time hookers tell me I smell nice is when I wear the Versace.

No way my dad also gave me Polo green.
Polo green confirmed GOAT dadcore cologne.

>>8290822
aww twins :3 <3
really though, shit makes me feel like an 80s businessman or something

>>8290816
Are you 16?

>>8290839
Yes

>galbanum, aldehyde, black musk, labdanum, smoked cedar, benzoin, just to name a few notes

Anyone else hyped as fuck?

>>8291262
Now I am. My 2 man is about half done.

Currently wearing CB Beast
I smell like cured meat
I love the smell, but I really have no concept of what other people think. No one's commented on it yet =]

acqua di gio, pleb as fuck but I love it.

>>8291262
>labdanum
love that note

not too much hyped on the rest but interested to see how they work together

gonna try some cologne. What's the most popular for men and what's the best first timers buy?

I don't want a few choices, I want one answer.

>>8291465
then what's the point of trying some?
Every cologne smells different on each individual.
Someone will probably tell you to get One Million.

>>8291465
Axe Body Spray

where can i find a cologne that smells almost pepperminty? I want something different

>>8291465
If you're gonna be a pleb, then be a real pleb and stick to perfume. You'll also get 3 choices.

Paco Rabanne: 1 Million is the most popular (has been since early 2013), It's great for night events, clubbing etc. But it's to overwhelming for everyday use unless you're a nigger. Notice if you wear this you'll smell like pretty much everyone else, but it's a safe card.

Giorgio Armani: Acqua di Gio is also very popular, Me and people I know prefer this during summer since the smell is pretty much non existent when it's cold outside, the wear stays for just an hour or less if its cold. That being said it's an awesome perfume for summer day/night and ladies love it. If you want a perfume only for summer/spring, go with it!

Jean Paul: Gaultier Le Male used to be the thing 10 years ago, nowdays it's not as popular but still remains one of the more common ones. If you're in still in college or under 20, I wouldn't recommend it. Got a strong spicy smell to it and unless your alpha as fuck people will just mock you for wearing it.Can't really tell you much about it since I've never actually owned it myself.

She just took a full dose of A*men mixed with kouros. And ya she died

>>8289793

>plebbing it up.

eau de perfume/cologne keep for a very long time, so it's like "hm, should I buy this for 3 och 5 cents a spritz"?

Pic related. The one I use most often.

>>8291546
>paco rabanne 1 million

>>8291465
L'Eau D'Issey and Aqua di Gio are relatively cheap and get recommended a lot. I personally think that they smell cheap.
Some "classics" that I like: Terre d'Hermes, most Dior Homme perfumes, YSL La Nuit De L'Homme, Burberry Brit.
You should definitely try them out first, though.

>>8290014
On me it lasts for like 2 days
The dry down is worth the rough opening

>>8293123
Thanks a lot. Do you find people complimenting it? Also some people describe it as sexy, is that an accurate description? I know I could find this info elsewhere but everywhere else is a bunch of faggots when it comes to fragrances

>>8293341
> I know I could find this info elsewhere but everywhere else is a bunch of faggots
you mean basenotes and fragrantica? in general, they know more than /fa/ when it comes to scents

>Do you find people complimenting it?
>dressing for others

full pleb

i like to wear whatever is on sale at bed bath and bodyworks, so that it smells like i just fucked a 19 year old whore.

>>8293649
not me

>>8293341
Yeah people compliment it pretty often, considerably more often than more niche type stuff. It's not an intimidating scent. Pretty deadly for nightclubs etc.
I really love the versace rose and tonka bean combo, had people say it just smells like cherries for some reason though.
Also its really cheap, bottle looks decent; overall a pretty square 7.5/10 for me

Chanel Allure Homme Sport almost always.

Occasionally Platinum Egoiste.

>>8293656
nah u just smell like a flaming queer

>>8289793
>Which one do I pick for this summer:

Pick something else.

Most of those you list smell cheap, and are Axe with nice bottles.

Avoid anything that's "fresh" and aimed at your men.

acqua di gio is fucking amazing

Old spice Wolfthorn

>people compliment the way i smell all the time
>ask what cologne or fragrance im using
>say i dont
>no one believes me
>gf complains whenever i wear cologne
>says it doesnt smell like me
>proceeds to get wet just smelling me
>i cant even smell myself so i have no idea what in the fuck

help

>>8293915
There are medical conditions that can make you put off smells other's might confuse with a fragrance.

Diabetes is one that can in certain individuals. But if you really want to know, you'll have to give a sample of pee to a doctor.

>>8293933

im fully aware that i have no health abnormalities

>>8289331
My day to day office is Giorgio Armani Code Ultimate. I got a bottle of Code Black from my then girlfriend in 2004/5, and we both loved it. But then they changed to just "Code", and it does not smell the same.

Ultimate comes the closest.

On weekends, it's either Emporio Armani Diamonds Summer, or Hugo Boss Orange.

Any recommendations on what else to try? I've tried a bunch of the fresh or sporty ones like Ralf Lauren, Lactose, but they all smell like the cheap stuff we drowned ourselves with in school.

I really hate the Issey Miyake for women family, if that helps. Something about it just gives me a headache if used too much... which my now girlfriend does.

>>8293940

As long as you've got yourself checked out, that's cool.

Other than you are one of the more novel X-Men, you're on your own.

i never used perfume in my entire life

i am also a virgin

comme des garcones sequioa

some shit french connection one.

bitches always mire simply because i don't smell like deodorant and BO.

>>8291546
>Paco Rabanne: 1 Million

I'm not gonna lie to you, that smells like pure alcohol.

A friend of mine loves it, but eh, you like what you like.

>>8290795
Polo green takes its man to rock, but it's a very classic scent. Way too powerful for me though.
My gf is very sensitive to cologne so i rarely wear it. When i do it's usually RL nr. 3 or Boss bottled.

>>8294178
Personally I don't mind the actual smell of it. I've been told females love it. But it is ridiculously long lasting and heavy, it would be an alright fragrance if people applied one spray. My friend wears it, I picked him up one night, fucked around for a bit then dropped him home, I went into my car the next morning and the smell of one million was nearly unbearable

>>8294192

Yeah, I think with a lot of scents, the men wearing them are to blame.

They havn't grown up much since their days in school, so they drown themselves in it, and think you're meant to only smell of that one smell all day.

EDT and others are meant to mix with your own body odor to create something pleasant and unique.

>>8289331
Spring/summer: Creed Green Irish Tweed, Tom Ford Violet Blonde (I realize it's a women's fragrance. I give zero fucks.)
Fall/winter: Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, L'Occitane Eau des Baux

>>8290795
What is this?

>>8294421
>I realize it's a women's fragrance. I give zero fucks.

Amen, bro. Most of my fragrances are unisex or women's, and they definitely seem more appropriate in warmer months than most male scents (especially since most warm weather male perfumes are citrusy, and I'm not a big fan of that)

didn't like it at first whiff but its growing on me quick. check out my cool photography

usually use hugo boss executive, what do you guys think ?

>>8289332
unscented and aluminum-free is the only way to go

/fa/ what's the best CdG cologne with good longevity and projection? I hear them hyped up here a lot and wanted to add one to my collection

>>8298830
theres no single 'best' cdg fragrance, they do a lot of different styles really well. unfortunately in my experience most of the cdg line is poor on longevity and fair on projection (though i dont like fragrances that project like crazy so this is ok to me).

my personal favorites are avignon and 2. avignon has basically become the reference fragrance for all incense perfumes. 2 has a wonderfully warm and fuzzy, sort of cloudy presence and the note profile is relatively unique.

that said, wonderwood and 2 man are their most popular, i think. wonderwood is a woodsy fragrance and 2 man is the 'manly' version of 2.

>>8298901
>>8298901
Thanks, are Wonderwood and 2Man decent on longevity at least? I care more about longevity than projection. Also, thoughts on Standard by CdG?

bump

/fa/, what do you know about olfactory fatigue? I feel like I get olfactory fatigue only to certain notes and it skew my perception of how I smell.
example: sometimes when I wear givenchy gentlemen only, it just smells like pure incense to me. other around me say they get an incense note, but it's not very strong. when I spray it on a shirt and come back later, it doesn't smell too strongly of incense either.
another example: I tried a sample of polo blue, which I thought smelled great for about 20 minutes then just smelled like minty basil to me, but people around me said they didn't really smell that.
what's up with this?

>>8291405
Can we make a updated version of this, its been 2 years...

>>8298680
Does that stain shirts?

>>8298916
longevity on both is moderate to poor in my experience. ive never tried standard.

>>8289331
Lately ive been using a really old cologne i bought years ago in france "paco ruben" its really nice

is it bad that I like how Nautica Voyage smells?

>>8302835
It smells decent. But I think its what alot of people in hs wear.

>>8289331
Arabic EdP Insight

>>8302406
I haven't had any problems. It's usually the aluminum compounds in anti-perspirants that cause the worst stains

>>8289331
I WANT TO BY MOLECULE 01

AND
CHANEL BLUE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

Currently though, I wear Very Sexy for him by VS. It has alot of citrusy stuff and smells so good. but it lasts like an hour or two. So i'm thinking of keeping it for dates or something

what does /fa/ think of bang? tested it today and it's kinda peppery and woody

>>8294458
Polo by Ralph Lauren, they may have finally changed it to the more descriptive Polo Green (which is what people call it anyways)

>>8289331
Jazz Club by MMM.

>>8296380
my nigga
got the same
loving it so far, but it really is a dark scent.
dont know if i can wear it during summer
fits best with dark layered clothing in winter imo

>>8306494
that's Encre Noir Sport, not original Encre Noir. Sport is much lighter

>>8302058
Either olfactory fatigue, but could also be skin chemistry
