i mainly am into designer fragrances and the reason for this is due to thier versatility. most designer fragrances are meant to appeal to a broad range of individuals and situations while most niche frags and made to appeal to a certain few. for example, i wouldnt wear tobacco vanille due to work because its too strong, doesn't go well with warm weather. it imo just doesn't go that well with lots of situations but for the few that it does, it works excellent. musc ravaguer would be perfect for a date, but i wouldnt wear it to work, its too much for warm weather, and overall for me just wouldn't work for most situations other than dates or a night out of town. aqua di gio on the other hand can be worn anytime, so can boss bottled, la nui de lomme, bvlgari aqua, etc...the only niche frags which great versatility i have found are certain creed(GIT, Millesime Imperial, SMW). which niche fragrances offer the best versatility? im not talking about something thats completely out of left fields(i.e something incredibly unique), but rather something that would appeal to the masses and be wearable all year long like the designer frags i mentioned.
