Gay friend of mine literally spent thousands on perfumes. I got only this one yet everywhere we go people only compliment me. I will never understand the hate this fragrance gets. I had literally peope following me in a gas station store to ask me what I am wearing. Never happened with anything else.

Just received this and a bunch of samples from the house and it's a new favourite. It doesn't smell exactly like the shower gel, but it's a leathery, aromatic, marine , woody fragrance that teleports you into a coastal forest. The vetiver is present and gives it some edge without being intrusive.

I'll report back how it develops.

Does perfume matter?

I got the normal edt one and never really got compliments until recently when I went to a bakery and the cute cashier said I smell amazing. I was shocked because obviously the room smelled like pastry and coffee to me. It made me think it probably projects much more than I thought. In retrospect perhaps I wear it a bit too much and may have annoyed other students at uni with that smell. Oh well

this, I have much more expensive colognes that I've worn to work, not a peep. but I had two girls, one a 7 and one an 8, compliment me within a couple days of each other once I started wearing this one. the second, hotter one, even doubled back and wafted towards her with her arms and said "you smell REALLY good anon"

I’ve tried Aventus, CDNIM, Explorer, Cedrat Boise, etc. CDNIM smells like lemon pledge in the beginning, and dries down to something barely wearable. For a poorfag, it’s a decent choice though because it does last an extremely long time. That being said, it’s a cope for poorfags - they don’t have the money to even try aventus, so they have no clue they just say it smells as good to justify their own purchase. Explorer is the best aventus style frag of all of them, only 30$ and way better than that shitty Arab clone

Replace perfume with muscles/decent clothing. Unless its a gurl you personally know, men generally don't get positive compliments from women in public, even if they'll admit afterwards that they thought it was nice. Whilst dudes who aren't insecure tryhards will be the first to acknowledge you look good. Don't ever expect compliments from women, they seem to think the average man is one compliment away from raping them.

when i was 5 my dad explained "it should be enough cologne to affect her but not enough for her to recognize she's being affected"

someone isn't supposed to consciously notice right away... perfect indication you pile it on your neck or the scent is inherently too strong

I don't understand why frag fags care so much about openings. Unless you're literally spraying it in the same room as other people you're going to be spending your time with like some kind of fucking autist, the opening means nothing. The only thing that matters is the dry down and any weird smells in the opening should dissipate before you even walk out your front door.
