Nishane Colongise by a landslide. Prade is too sweet,creamy and powdery for the summer heat and humidity and it turns cloyingly soapy.

If you like Nishane try Acqua Di Parma Intensa.

>>17638113
No it isn't. Zoologist is the most over rated house out there, they churn out "artistic" fragrances that are over priced and just don't smell great, and then people hype them because it's the cool thing to do. They are the emperor's new clothes of fragrance, and they are incredibly useful because anytime someone fervently praises them I can disregard their opinion.

>Niche fragrances are for the more experienced fragrance enthusiast who wants a richer and more complex scent profile. They are made by fragrance houses that exclusively produce perfumes and use higher quality ingredients. And of course with higher quality and exclusivity comes a much higher price tag than the designer fragrance lines. But be warned, Niche fragrances are not designed with mass appeal in mind, they are made for someone who wants an experience out of their fragrance's scent profile, which means they are much more likely to use scents that have a limited appeal to many people. Always test Niche frags before buying. Avoid blind buys of Niche frags if at all possible.

they're good enough for 10$. you're never going to get a fragrance with this profile that's beastmode, even the Tom Ford has meh performance. Neroli and citrus notes are volatile and the lack of base notes keeps the fragrance light and refreshing, but brief

Hey Anons, I'm looking to up my fragrance game and was wondering: what's the best fragrance to wear when you want to smell wealthy? I want to smell like I just stepped out of a luxury car or a high-end boutique. So far I’ve been utilizing bdc and aventus. But now every normie has them.
I'm open to any suggestions, whether it's a classic fragrance or a newer one, I want something with crazy silage and projection that can fill up an entire room, like zyklon B.

Either way thanks in advance for your help!

Anons, I need your advice here. My dad's turning 42 next week, and I want to surprise him with a cologne for the summer. I've got a budget of $75, and he's not a fan of sweet fragrances (I wear to wear some mainstream blue scents that he can't stand).
I stumbled upon Polo Cologne Intense, which is the 2021 flanker of Polo OG. It's described as wearable and not overly sweet. I haven't seen much discussion about this frag on /fa/. However, I did come across Gent Scents review, where he praised it as a good wearable modern interpretation of the OG.
So, my question is: Have any of you tried Polo Cologne Intense? What are your thoughts on it? I need to confirm it's a good fit for my dad.
Thanks!

My father actually has a collection of colognes that he has received as gifts (or maybe purchased) over the years, but most of them are still full except for Beau de Jour, Farenheit, and Ombre Noire.

With a fragrance name like "Sundowner", it becomes very apparent that it is supposed to be worn on summer evenings. Fragrantica reviewers just never test fragrances in the summer once they have decided they are for the winter. Some stuff gets straight up awesome during the summer and is absolutely worth wearing, even though the average fragrantica user would get an aneurysm if you told them that.

I'm not hating on your choice but I really don't get Eros. Every youtube frag vid is hyping it, 9/10 times it comes out on top of every other frag, women love it, etc. I think these tests are flawed however, because 1) women don't know what the fuck they want, 2) fragrances smell different on paper and skin (not to mention various skin types), 3) on these tests the fragrances are smelt immediately upon spraying, without drydown. Everytime I go to the store to try out fragrances it's always an 'eh' reaction from Eros. It's nothing interesting, nothing stands out and I think Dylan blue is a lot better. I'll give it 1 more try and I'll literally go in there and try just Eros EDT, Eros EDP and Eros Parfum (3 sprays each) on different spots of my skin and walk around the mall a bit to test it out.

This hobby is dumb as fuck. If you have 4 bottles you have enough smell to last a lifetime. I bought pic related. It's good. Its smells like rubbing alcohol, then mint, then coconut, then some other shit. It's $30. Dorks that collects dozens of bottles need to stop jerking each other off about how smart they are. Stop watching youtube video about it; it's the same as the magic the gathering dorks, or the fantasy football dorks. If you want to feel good about yourself, so exercise and lose weight.

It hurts because it's true. Recently, I decided to sell off my collection and now I'm left with just 8 bottles. While I adore the experience of smelling different fragrances, I couldn't justify owning over 4 liters of cologne.

Glad to see someone else with the same feelings about it. I kept reading that it was a good natural approach to aventus DNA but with a new direction and if they told me it was another cheap aventus clone I would have believed it

In fact, I own club de Nuit limited edition and I think its actually the better fragrance of the two

Musc Ravageur (2000) is an interesting and very successful attempt at making musk without a typical white musk molecule, removing the “laundry” aspect of most modern musks and creating something oriental, fatty, and animalic like the musks of old. Having smelled deer musk, this is by no means that kind of smell via vegetal proxy, but it is a wonderfully sensual musk in it’s own right, full of the loudness and performance all the “beastmode” power fragrance fans crave. Due to it’s aggressive nature, Musc Ravageur leans very much male, despite being genderless in composition, and this is due to sociological conventions. The average self-identified CISHET woman would likely find Musc Ravageur too rich, overtly-sexual, and lacking subtlety; that’s not to say there aren’t some ladies who love headstrong fragrances (they were the rage in the 70’s and 80’s, with fragrance gender lines blissfully blurred back then because of it), but on average, strait guys looking to troll for dates at clubs and bars seem the likeliest purchasers of Musc Ravageur. The biggest obstacle to this being made reality however, is the prestige price point of the average Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle composition, which rival Creed at MSRP and keep Musc Ravageur from stalking all but the most exclusive night clubs. The notoriety of Musc Ravageur is also a bit undeserved, as it’s not the horniest animal in the woods, with stuff like Kiehl’s Original Musk (1963) or Serge Lutens Muscs Koublaï Khän (1998) flogging it senseless in the virility department, for those who care about such things.

It’s probably for the best that only the “upward mobility” segment would dare drop cash for this, because I can see Musc Ravageur becoming suffocating in the way Jovan Musk for Men (1973) used to be due to it’s former ubiquity in social settings. Malle making this a pricey rare bird ensures that instead, Musc Ravageur is always a pleasant, if provocative surprise when encountered in the wild. Technically speaking, Musc Ravageur is an oriental, and not a musk, since it contains none, but the immense impression of musk it leaves is far better than most things containing the actual molecule. Lavender and bergamot are very expectantly the top here, but in moments they give way to a huge clove and cinnamon tandem that is the heart and shapes the rest of the experience. If you don’t like either of these in abundance, then Musc Ravageur is not for you. Heaps of vanilla and tonka in the base do the rest to shape the “musk” accord of Musc Ravageur, flanked by woods like cedar and sandal which dry it up just enough to keep it from smelling like dessert, which it almost does anyway. Gaiac wood and linalool add the final touch of woodsy floral spiciness which “browns out” the dry down of Musc Ravageur to an aura of thick bakery spice and sweat combined with an aromatic untreated wood finish. Sillage and projection are on levels you’d need Neil DeGrasse Tyson to figure out, and longevity is “until you wash it off” levels of good. I’m saying all this from just 2 sprays, so if nothing else, Musc Ravageur may actually be worth it’s price just for sheer performance, and a 100ml/3.4oz bottle of this should provide a lifetime of bakery meets jock strap next to a lumber yard ambiance.

I like Musc Ravageur, but similar to most scents in this category, I don’t see myself aligning with the Type-A personality and blunt intent needed to enjoy what this offers more than once or twice a year, meaning that for me, this isn’t a full bottle purchase. I do give this a thumbs-up as one of the better musks in the game (even if it doesn’t contain a musk molecule), and certainly one of the few Frédéric Malle releases that doesn’t feel like an outright fleecing for its price tag, since performance is even greater than what the usually-impressive Creed ambergris bases offer (for comparison), with a drydown of spice-laden vanilla and tonka that never ends. Penhaligon’s Endymion (2003) would offer a lighter, more manageable version of this experience, with much less projection and a more finite lifespan, at less than half the cost to boot, so if you feel Musc Ravageur is a bit too much, then that is the route to take. As for everyone else, if you’re looking for a high-end, over-the-top sweaty oriental cream chowder parading around as a funky musk, this is the dog that’ll hunt, just be kind with your sprays, as a little goes a very long way. Keep this one to winter time and do not torture your coworkers by showing up to the office smelling like a musky husky pretty please, although if you work outside, I guess it’s okay to wear, I just definitely see this as a fragrance meant to help you “score”. Some say original 2000 vintage is even stronger than the better-mannered new production I’m smelling, and that’s a legend I frankly don’t want to test. Hats off to Maurice Roucel, you got us real good with this one, and you would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for those meddling kids and their dog.
Thumbs up.

Greetings, esteemed fragrance connoisseurs. I am in search of olfactory compositions possessing exceptional potency that can saturate an entire room with their scent. Although I have obtained a diminutive sample of Sauvage elixir, its ubiquity amongst common individuals has caused me to seek alternative options. Despite perusing various virtual marketplaces my research of fragrances has mainly shown me those who haven’t appeared to align with my preferences. As a novice in the realm of perfumery, I would greatly appreciate any guidance or recommendations you may offer. Thank you kindly in advance.

I hold no desire to administer more than a limited number of sprays to attain the desired effect. Procuring a pair of fragrances and dispensing ten applications of each appears excessive.

I must, with the utmost conviction, reject the proposal to employ Joop as my olfactory signature, for it does not conform to the strict standards of opulence that I hold dear. To be sure, the mere thought of donning such a fragrance is anathema to me, as it is likely to evoke a malodorous odor that is unworthy of my refined sensibilities.

Nay, my olfactory aspirations are of a much loftier nature, for I seek to exude a scent that is not only potent enough to overpower my surroundings, but that also exudes an alluring and captivating aroma, one that is sure to enrapture all those in my vicinity and leave a lasting impression. Indeed, my quest for the perfect fragrance is a pursuit of the very embodiment of the sublime, a standard that can only be attained through a perfume that adheres to the highest echelons of olfactory excellence.

As I embark on my quest, I am reminded of the immortal words of Shakespeare, who famously wrote, "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." And yet, names do matter, for they carry with them a certain cachet, a certain je ne sais quoi, that can elevate a fragrance from mere scent to an embodiment of one's very essence. It is with this in mind that I approach my search, with an unwavering commitment to finding a perfume that is not only fragrant but also embodies the very essence of my being.

my pursuit of the perfect fragrance is a noble endeavor, one that requires nothing less than the utmost attention to detail and an unwavering commitment to excellence. It is only through such a commitment that I can hope to exude a scent that is worthy of my refined tastes and elevated position, a scent that is sure to captivate and enchant all those within my sphere of influence.

hey retard nice copy paste but people can't tell if a fragrance has " a richer and more complex scent profile" from looking at a picture of the bottle, and that description isn't a catch all anyways.

24 Missouri, I don't know a whole lot about scents but looking to up my game. I really like Graphite from B&B in terms of scent so I am looking for a good hanging out with friends on the weekends kind of cologne. Any help is appreciated Bonus points for a good daily scent as well

On Parfumo you literally can see 2 types of user. The old passioned community user who sell they used frag for a good low price, because of passion without trying to make money.
And the braindead hypebeast, fakery, rude(because they think it's cool), money making mentally. They selling they fragrance like Aventus for 850 bucks. If i would be admin i would ban such user.

What a fag this guy.selling old aventus for 850, like an ape. And then he complains about people messaging him.

By the way what is the site you utilize to buy the frags ?

It's still available in europe and elsewhere, just america has some stocking issues. I think you can just go for one of the ebay offers, it's a pretty cheap frag to begin with and a lot of people blind buy theirs and then want to get rid of it when they discover it's nothing like their favorite dior sauvage

You're at the point where it would be the easiest to just visit a store and sniff their selection. They have paper strips where you can easily test a fragrance and if you think you like it you can test it on your skin. Should be possible to find 3-4 interesting fragrances that you can then spray onto your wrists/elbows and wear them for a while to see which one is your favorite. Try to find stuff from the various categories of the chart/flowchart or the nice cheapies pastebin, even though not all of them might be available everywhere.

My apologies for the confusion anon. I was speaking from my personal point of view: I am a person who goes out, has family and friends, and works with other people. In my case, I don't see the point in whoring for attenton
