I've been on the quest of finding a realistic coffee scent for years. For some reason everything I tested was either a sweet-syroupy gourmand with a hint of coffee or this strange mix of hay, tonka and some other ingredients that people believe for some reason smells like coffee. Apart from designers that are all very off from an actual coffee smell, the best were: Carthusia Terra Mia, Keronese Follow, Piotr Czarnecki Shihan, Black Phantom (and it's clone Faviol Seferi Insomnia that people rave about), AKAF Mukhallat di Corleone. None of them were realistic, ground coffee smells (but if you're looking solely for a coffee-based fragrance then try these). The best was Piotr Czarnecki Shihan.

[Anonymous No.15791563]

Anyone has any experience with deodorants from the designers fragrances like, like Lanui De L'homme deostick etc? I'm asking in general. They are surely overpiced but I might get a montblanc explorer or something. How good are they as deodorants, how much resemblance do they have to the fragrances smell wise?

[Anonymous No.15791585]

tested my sample of nawab of oud intensivo
it's awesome, creamy, masculine rose, it's definitely an oriental, but without the heavyness, strongly considering buying it

[Anonymous No.15791601]

I've just tested my Elephant and Roses Maria Candida Gentile sample. It parallels in many ways Rose Cuir by FM that I was writing about last time. It's not green and woody but rather a dried roses scent with (slightly) animalic leather. Everything done in the typical MCG way, i.e. it's quiet in a classy way. Most of her scents sit close and definitely don't last an entire day but give you this aura of wearing something of exquisite quality for yourself. I also tried her Lydnon Barry and Lankaran Forest and all were like that. Something that a person coming from old money who prefers to stay quiet about his wealth would wear. It's like wearing a classic Cartier watch instead of a flashy Rolex/AP.
>>15791585
Glad that you liked it man. Have you tried other other OJs? I like almost everything (but the newest oriental line) from them. Black Gold is another 10/10 for me that is as dense as Nawab of Oudh.

I got this from a fragrance swap and plan to buy more from her, if i know what fragrance of her fits to an 25 year old guy.
The fragrance beginns with Mulled wine untill the orange note fades away, after that it will become a slightly sweet cinnamon rose scent, it sits close to skin up to 1 meter and has a 6 hour longevity then it becomes an skin scent, on my skin.
In my opinion it is one of the best winter fragrances, but pls don‘t blind buy it, or any other fragrance.

I’m going through the set for the third time now and as much as I love Lover’s Tale it’s too powerful. Black Knight is big and bold but so elegant with it. If I don’t get Black Knight it’s going to be either Sticky Fingers or Angel’s Dust. Or maybe Under My Skin. Fucking hell, it’s too difficult to choose.

Has it ever occurred to you that you can just put coffee beans in your pockets? Nobody wants to smell like lunch, why the fucking fuck, for what fucking reason to reproduce a photorealistic smell of the coffee if every person in that solar system might just have it all day with them in the cup.

[Anonymous No.15791809]

>>15791752
You misunderstood me. I want an AUTHENTIC coffee smell not smelling like ground coffee. The thing is that typically everything happening around the coffee note is there to hide that it’s not really anything close to how the coffee smells like. That’s why every time it’s subdued or otherwise smells blatantly like a weird mix thats suppose to mimic the coffee note. Perhaps there’s some technical reason why one can’t really extract the coffee note we’ll just like with grapefruit as we talked in the last thread

[Anonymous No.15791815]

>>15791636
Probably note. All Zootopians are very unique scents. Perhaps there are some qualities/notes you can abstract and we can find something else implementing them instead? I think it’s way more productive than looking for a smellalike of an ultra niche brand.

I believe the fragrance apprentice mentioned at a point a realistic coffee fragrance, maybe it shows up if you search for it. I'm pretty sure there has to be one with a coffee accord that's not overly sweet or chocolaty, but I'm not aware of it. Not sure how much wearbility it would have but it would be cool indeed

I think it’s a very good scent, but in a completely unremarkable way. It’s good in all its forms, albeit overpriced as Parfum. I’ll never own it and find it quite boring, but it manages to a lot for a designer scent without being a mess.

le labo
bergamote 22 - definitely love this one, fresh bergamot with the le labo musk backdrop works great (looking forward to spring)
the noir 29 - kinda sickening fruit/animalic opening for some reason but i like the drydown a lot. Definitely get the black tea and wood, like wet tea leaves
gaiac 10 - this one isn't what I expected, getting incense and very soft wood.

cdg
blue santal - pine/sandalwood/juniper/mushroom? something weird in this one in addition to the woody smells which i love. i kinda wanna cop a full bottle and go with this as my signature. love it for southern california

ds & durga
cowboy grass - thought this one would be grassier, it's got grassy but kinda on the powdery side instead of herbal
debaser - love this one too! wood, coconut, and fig. A little too sweet, wish it went harder on the wood and less on the fig.

You can either buy the deluxe spray samples directly from Zoologist or buy 0.7ml sample vials from Luckyscent. The spray samples are a better deal per ml and let you get more of a feel of what the bottle would be like and have a better resale value if you do that sort of thing, but they do cost twice as much as a Luckyscent sample. If you've got a short list of Zoologist perfumes you really want to try I'd go with the spray samples, if you want to try everything I'd do Luckyscent.

Do keep in mind that Zoologist is heavily overhyped in this gay fag general.

[Anonymous No.15793037]

I've tested all of the Papillon perfumes and I've got some thoughts on them.

Bengale Rouge - Smells good, a little too heavy and sweet. This would be the perfect perfume for a mother because it smells very warm and comforting.

Dryad - Very natural, very green, not my style, and I try to avoid "oakmoss" perfumes from IFRA compliant companies

Anubis - Great, love it, I'm buying it. The dry but smooth leather with subtle incensy and floral notes is really nice.

Tobacco Rose - Smells kind of sour to me. I much prefer Kazimi by House of Matriarch for a high quality natural rose perfume.

Salome - Very sexy, very complex, I love it. However, I think it fits a woman more than a man. Not because it's slightly feminine, but because it's so bold and sexual that I don't think a man can easily pull it off. Like it or not, women have a much larger range of what they can get away with.

Angelique - Very feminine, smells very nice, incredibly weak projection and longevity.

I keep seeing this but to me Colonia Essenza smells like the first soap ever made, indeed I've never smelled much luxurious hotel soaps. It is probably the most outdated smell I've encountered, and I've tried some Azzaro Pur Homme, etc.

It probably was groundbreaking when it was released and soaps started to copy the smell, it's not a bad smell but it reminds of soap too much. At least for an European, maybe American soaps are different. I just can't see this being pulled off by someone under 40. Possibly that this association is not made by everyone and it's just me, anyway. But do try it if you feel like it, I also ordered a sample.

Nothing against ADP, I like a lot ADP Oud, and will try some more from them.

I know what you mean and agree, I adore the regular Colonia but Essenza is too much soap for me.
The "soap smell" is generally made up of aldehydes, white musk, and white florals (jasmine, neroli, lily-of-the-valley) which is all present in Essenza.
Essenza was released in 2010 though so classic soap companies definitely didn't copy that one ;)

Testing J.F. Schwarzlose Berlin Leder 6 Fetisch. I think one of these times when the producer had a marketing brief ready for release before the fragrance was ready. It should be named 'Styrax 6 Softy'. It opens with smell of warm saffron milk with a sprinkle of vanilla. Soon after that dry, resinous and woody styrax comes out (it reminds me a lot of how Francesca Bianchi is using this this ingredient in her fragrances or how it smells in Arquiste Nanban) and remains the dominating note for the rest of the lifetime of this scent but the perfume remains soft and 'round' as in the opening phase. You can pick up some honey and incense nuances are showing up but if you don't focus really hard you won't pick up any leather. I think that it's just a leathery nuance of styrax and there is no actual leather here anyways. It's funny how off are votes on the most prominent notes both on fragrantica and parfumo.net on this one. Autosuggestion is a powerful really thing if all of those people think that there's any leather note here. Perhaps people confuse it with styrax that most of people don't know the scent profile of. Projects really well. Overall a very nice crowdpleasing scent for those who would like to anyway smell a bit unique.

Blind bought Bianchi's Lover Tale for my gf, what is she in for?

[Anonymous No.15796720]

>>15796685
Something she doesn't like with high probability. I love bianchi but I am not sure why and how it happened this gets thrown around here as default suggestions.. unless she is into fragrance this thing will likely be too strange for her.
I like it though, great perfume, but would never blind buy it as a gift for someone not interested in perfume

Fucking hell. I’m on the fence about buying it after 4ml of sample. Undoubtedly a beautiful scent, but difficult to pull off.

Ok well she's in for an incredibly dense leather with some both some dirty animalics going on but also some florals.. and it lasts forever, my shirt from weeks ago still smells like it..

They love it, and Dan touched on my thoughts regarding ordering from Europe. It’s going to get very complicated ordering from Europe to the U.K. and it seems like if I don’t order something now it’ll get insanely expensive very soon.

Have fun with it! I’d be interested for others to do what I did and do a side by side comparison of Sex and the Sea and the Neroli. My two least favourite, but still great in a more objective sense.

Waiting for delivery as they didn't have UAE in stock, but just pulled the trigger on these three. Did I fuck up?

I decided against Engima despite really liking it as it's a little too safe/generic/bland. It's a nice scent, just not sure it makes sense to buy a fragrance like that from this brand.

[Anonymous No.15797429]

both gave me a fun day at the beach feel, It reminds me of sunscreen, sweet drinks and they have a salty sea note. But with Neroli I felt more spices and like a pepper-carrot thing going on.
And holy shit! Lover´s tale feels like the female version of zootopian´s trex

Fruity Aoud is the best of the Tutti-Fruity line. Not sure you can still get it, though. It’s almost like a much better, fruitier Joob.

Ti Amo is good, but I liked Amore Mio more. Again, though, don’t think that one exists anymore. Ti Amo is more powdery, Amore Mio has this really snice almond/heliotrope thing on top of the powder.

Get something more obscure if it bothers you. Most guys where I live don't wear fragrance, so overlaps are rare and my signature stays relatively secure.

I have a decant of this, it's a very good scent but unfortunately it is still a a bit too sweet. Here's my review from when I tried it:

Another fragrance I got because I wanted to try some coffee fragrances, and this one is sooo yummy. It opens with some heady rum notes but quickly goes into something that smells like a sweet hazelnut and caramel latte (not much espresso). The further it gets towards the drydown, it gets more and more burnt (in a great way) and ends up smelling a lot like gingerbread and coffee in the end, which makes it a perfect Christmas-time gourmand where everything smells natural and does not come off as cloying at all (and I'm not a big gourmand fan!). If you like the notes, then it's a safe buy, because that's basically what you get.
VERY oily fragrance that lasts a long time too.

We've been through this before when Igor tried to ride these threads by creating new ones with a baity picture and they were always filled with shitposts. I don't have anything against others creating new threads but let's don't encourage pointless shitposting from the beginning (I must admit thought that apart from the Jeremy picture he actually did a perfect job). After one of them reaches 310 we'll create a #495. No need to overthink it.
