Not sure. A while back tspencer was inquiring about the opaque gold trimmed cap ones. Ive never tried it, just original and current. I like both. I think the concensus was it is a middle gound. From...

In the drydown its close. Habit Rouge is true though. Im no expert on Shalimars, but have thought about getting one, and reading this will help me eventually pick a version.

This is the opening sticky of the Just Starting Out forum. It is great. This will give you an idea of different categories, different choices, and cheap options to get your feet wet. Really...

nice! I agree, definitely not a power frag. class and smell goodery though.

I will sample Lumiere Noir. Love MFK.

Welcome back! Whoa, Roja, 125 for 7.5, too rich for my blood!

Rock on.

Creed Viking. 9ers saints, wow. I choose to watch vikings lions and pats chiefs. Both were boring.

It is awesome. Im a fan. Should probably back it up. Lol.

No experience with the new version. Sorry.

New digs. Decided to take over the bar. Scent bar!

The aftermath.

I remember that. I was thinking we'd see a grey market surge. Obviously i was wrong.

I personally dont find Zino and Heritage to be very close in smell. Rose/patch vs tobacco/patch/sandlewood. The florals are just so strong, like Black Aoud, that it tips the feel to a very different...

Mega dittos on literally this whole post. I may have as well written it.

Most ive ever worn? Ugh, maybe 6? Busy summer day with yardwork, gym, multiple showers, couple samples, and evening activities. Maybe 5?

My general schedule is 1 at 11pm, 1 at 8 am, 1 at 4 pm. So...

Im gonna wait it out. We'll see.

Some funny things here, lol. Concerning humidity, it prevents evaporation, leaving the fragrance to languish on the skin. Sweat slowly washing it away. The wetter it gets the drier i like em. I wore...

TRex is ghastly, all respect. Couldnt wear that. Super happy to have tried it though. Definitely a memerable experience. So interesting.

Never tried Yuzu, L'anarchist is a strange thing. There is some toothpaste feel to it. I thought about buying it, and still might just because of my Caron love, but just wasnt crazy about it. Tried...

Yea, Zealot mentioned it. First id heard. Started zooming around the ol interweb and couldnt find anything about it beyond the normal rumblings. But the market seems to have dried up lately, as it...

10 sprays of Aventus is definitely there. People are smelling you. Especially if it is a newer bottle. Those sprayers are fire hoses.

I was just thinking about this yesterday. I usually only sleep 2-4 hours at a time, but when I sleep more than that I struggle to fit more than 2 a day. That seems to be my limit.

Hm. The mentioning apple pie is often foreboding.

If I hear corroborating evidence I will be buying a bottle. If I could get 5 hours it'd be worth it.

I would think MN would be in the same regional advertising district as Chicago. Maybe I'm just not seeing them. Like I have never seen an ad for Jeremy Fragrance videos. Granted, I have never seen...

edit: fragrance related. I do not plan to ask for a fragrance. That is all.

For posterity's sake, im uploading a picture of my interlude color, since it was mentioned.

hm. a cross breed of Interlude and Meharees might get you something. I wonder why it is such a unique fragrance, in why hasn't anyone else done anything like that? In the dearth of blah blah...

Yeah, zealot says he smells it all the time too. It must be huge on the west coast of usa, and in the uk. Heck, I see ads for AdG more than dior as well. I've seen more ads for Armani code in the...

I've smelled AdG in the wild probably 3 times for every one time of something else. It baffles me it is not in the top ten. Still haven't smelled Sauvage on another human, or Aventus. Le Male,...

Interesting perspective. I would have said maybe mislabeled, maybe not. The real test I suppose would be whether you think the Reflection man you got was a smoky incense monster, then it would be a...

Some fragrances macerate after they sit and age, sometimes they blossom once they get some air in them. Loosing notes would be associated with aging and going bad/old. I would doubt that your...

ive tried as far as I remember

sauvage
donna born in roma
le beau
beau de jour
explorer
dodo
fougere l'aube
k

ugh. that sucks. those bottles would be nice with a magnetic cap. Guess if it is not in the pipeline no need to wait.

I feel like his estimated dates of release are coming and going. I saw something on Instagram about like "3 weeks hopefully", but don't remember the exact date. No snag I hope. What is the brand...

ive been holding off on buying some manceras because of the cap issue. Anyone know about their magnetic caps, years issued, and such?

Always wierd to me to ask how many sprays one should use. There is no proper amount. Though i do understand that fragrances can be overapplied. Smell how many you need id say. Its different for...

Never owned the original, but smelled it a bunch. Intense i used up an 8 ml. Kinda boozier. Different smell. I prefer the intense.

I agree that bad marketing can kill, or at least hold back a decent fragrance. Ck One Shock was completely mishandled, and really seems like something that a real brand should be selling for way more...

I disagree that Sausage was such a huge hit because of marketing. I think that helps, but it is a super likable fragrance. Solo, the Star Wars movie was marketed like crazy, but when the reviews...

I was reading some of Colins reviews, and came across his LDDM review. It said something about being fairly simple and unique. Got me thinking, this fragrance does not remind me of anything else,...

Yeah, there is lipstick in there. Iris. Its great though. I like it a lot. I thought DHI was harder to wear. It is sweeter, and shading toward gourmand, though they smell similar.
Prada and Eau...

I can just scroll through and make mental notes of things not to try. Covenient.

Epic has been on my test list forevor. Itll be interesting to hear your thoughts.

Had to stay away til i wrote my review. Now reading, im glad it suits you! You sound like i feel about Yatagan. Extention of self is awesome to find. I only wish there was a pinch more patchouli and...

I was watching this too. I dont think i can continue. The game is great, but Charles Davis is the worst. Just so bad. A bad color guy can ruin a game.

Well, no Vikings today, so dealers choice! Flipping Sunday Ticket and Ombre Leather. :coolold:

Id get 3rd man and yatagan. Id bet youll like them. But if i had to pick one id say yatagan fits in better.

I find this list somewhat suprising. 1 million number 2? Le Male, not Ulra Male? No AdG? I dont know.

I think it is your nose and brain sorting it all out.

If this is a real bottle Id wager olfactory fatigue. I admit, I used to think my bottles lasted less than they do. Take a towel, spray it 4 times, put it in a closet you never use, and go back to...

I saw this earlier and decided to come back when I had more time. I think the big question is where you wish to purchase these scents. If you are wanting to purchase locally that will be the...

I quite like Habit Rouge. I prefer the edt to the edp. I've never tried the edc. Lemonade with a soft vanilla leather drydown. I'm not much for vanillas, but even so it teeters on fbw. Handsome...

I think you should give us a broad breakdown of the cereal market. Id like to know the dichotomy relating Fruity Pebbles to Cinnamon Toast Crunch. :laugh:

I smelled vetiver on a female at work the other day. We were in passing, so I just got a blast, but it was quite strong. Quite nice smelling on a woman, it actually made me double take whip my head...

I did not get a trace of animalics from CPH. CPH and 3rd Man share lavender, and have more similar scents, but 3rd Man seems closer in construction to Yatagan. Heck, Id prefer L'Anarchist in the...

Ooo. Super good deal for me. Ordered 11 samples. Yass! Come on guys, anyone curious about these, shipping was only $2.95 for it all!

Thats silly, I thought. Then finished reading it. I use aftershaves every day, as well. Maybe i should purchase a few. My aftershave game is Brut, Aqua Velva Musk, and Gillette Cool Wave. Maybe a...

Barbasol foam with aloe.

smells like playdough.

I'm simply. not. there.

I think that they will. My thought is that with the gender identification and such, more young men will want a scent that portrays their preferred gender identity. This will lead them to wear...

Naw, man. Youre fine. Stand up of you to apologize when you feel like you crossed the line. Shows charector. Groupthink is real, though. Pressure of the mob can influence opinions. After I order a...

Id say Roja Haute Luxe

Or vintage Patou Pour Homme might work.

I've only tried Mousse Illuminee, Tabac Vert, and Fougere L'Aube. I would recommend all of them. Mousse Illuminee I've found a bit tough to wear, as it is quite strong. Tabac Vert has some sort of...

When are we gonna get the dude dropping 10 Aventus batches on here?

These are cool. Nice bottles. Im interested. Like new age drugstore. Pretty cool.

I hate all the secrecy. Can you imagine if movies did that? Dont let anyone know when anything is coming out. I dont like not knowing. Waiting is fine. Perturbed.

I didnt find the strength of the new one problematic. Older one was more potent, but they were both pretty thick. Both lasted well. Cosy is a great word for this.

I always just tell them what it is. Ive had some post office employees say uner 6 oz is fine for air. Others, last time i had to argue to even get them to take it ground. They wanted to reject it...

Eh. Nothing i wanted really. But at least it was well stocked.

Layton. Easy call.

Metallique! Awesome.

Im a bit suprised to never hear anything about filling a bottle yourself. If the bottle and contents are a form of art, i would see that as restoration. Like touching up a miscared for painting, or...

Fragrance free morning and afternoon so far. Stomach flu.

Herbal, yes. Animalic, no. Its in the same vein as Polo to me.

I feel like the sharp shrillness is part of the anise makeup of the nature of the frag. Its that bite that gives it charector. But take mine with a grain of salt. Ive only sampled it twice from a...

No. Same liquid inside of a bigger bottle. It can cause some nose blindness though. Ask those around you, even a store clerk, if they can smell a fragrance.

Maybe you need new antipersperant? Lol. I get that smell sorta from fragrances that have gone off. BO and feet.

100. I am boycotting umlats and tildes. You all know what i mean.

I totally get it. You can sell it with the caveat that you think it is fake, but I'd be hesitant. That is just putting another fake back into the market. That would be functionally the same as...

I'm so bad at this game. Lol. I have to pull up my tried wardrobe in another window and scroll as the other picture is up to match. I can't pull it off the top of my head easily many times. And...

But instead of adding drums you are adding another complete orchestra. Doubling the flutes and clarinets, if it was unbalanced initially, it will continue to be.
I'm glad it worked for you, even...

I often see things I can't account for on ebay. $130 for a new bottle of Yatagan? Why? $50 for a partial uncapped newish bottle of cool water? Who's gonna buy these things? Silliness.

But lets...

I'm actually the opposite. I feel like when I try a new fragrance before bed I can't judge progressions, and will miss the heart of the fragrance. I can get a feel for the opening, and the base,...

I keep checking. Id buy that pure malt for 40. No dice here.

You sure it was Anthracite you tried? Too sweet is not something i would consider for that fragrance. It has a complete lack of sweetness. The other two Noirs are sweet though, Extreme more than Noir.

Im not up on the youtube culture, if naming another product in your thumbnail is considered bad form, or misleading. It would seem to be using the other product for clicks.

I always think people should tote their own product. Any salesman who told me their product was inferior to their competitor for a similar price probably wouldnt get my purchase. You have to believe...

6 hours in its faint, but still present. Skin scent. It does feel of a fragrance with a bit of an empty belly. But i dig it quite a bit. Probably get one eventually.

Ive liked some of ALDs fragrances, even enough to buy them. I'm thinking specifically of Baikal Gris. It is still readily available, and I think it smells good. Its not the price, actually think...

Ill try it again. I dont think it was nose blindness, but im willing to give it another shot. It smells good.

Ive been wanting to try Nawaf, but cant find samples anywhere. Looking in to samples directly seems a daunting dive as id have to research more to try.

I recenly got a sample. So ill update when i try it out.

I got both from Macys, and I've worn both quite a bit. I can tell a difference, but I'd wager the average person cannot. In fact, if not doing a side by side I wouldn't be able to tell you which I...

This totally looks like this. Its actually nice presentation. I would have expected that though. That is one thing I will look to Redolessence for, is he comprehensively covers the presentation. ...
