Hey everyone,
Seeing as I've been lurking here reading reviews and posts for some while I thought I should take the plunge and register myself, the main reason being that I'm a little lost! I do realize you get the question rather often of "hey I want a cool fragrance, can you help me find one?", which leaves me hesitant to write this. Yet I still hope some of you might understand the feeling I have of being a little stuck and are willing to offer me some advice!
I'm looking for a scent suitable for autumn and winter weather which is prominently woodsy and perhaps a little dark in nature if you can call it that, I'd like it to be present but in an inviting/intimate way, not loud and strong. Definitely masculine. I do not mean to come across as full of myself but I think for a 22 year old I am mature and somewhat out of the crowd. Thus my unwillingness to buy a fragrance everyone already wears like the Armani's and D&G's. I already own JPG Le Male for years which I still like but I smell it everywhere, Paco Rabanne Black XS which is alright but too sweet for me, Canali Men which is good but a summer scent, and Hugo Boss Dark Blue which is too synthetic smelling but hey it was a gift anyway.
Now I perfectly well realise I need to go out and test a couple of fragrances myself which I have already done a couple of times. I just feel a little lost. Though you probably understand that after testing a few your nose goes numb and there isn't really any point in continuing. What I hope for is a few good recommendations so next time I go out shopping with my girl who has a very sensitive nose, I can try a couple with a little more accuracy.
If you made it this far, thank you for your time!
