How many of your frags will you definitely purchase again?

post #1 of 63
Thread Starter 
I guess this a pretty good barometer of how much you like your collection. I surprised myself when thinking about this, because I can only really say two that I will absolutely, 100% purchase again, those being Fahrenheit and Gucci Pour Homme II.

I would repurchase my whole wardrobe and plan to if any of them run out. I only keep what I love.
post #3 of 63
Hammam Bouquet, Mouchoir de Monsieur, Terre d'Hermes parfum, Back to Black.
post #4 of 63
Perhaps a few from my massive collection.

Would not want to be without:




And, one that couldn't be more different than the other two...



Go figure
post #6 of 63
Out of my 30 bottles, I doubt I will finish more than 1 (Creed Aventus in the 1oz size). That's based on real life usage.
post #7 of 63
Maybe some, especially if they go on sale.
post #8 of 63
Most of my collection, in an ideal case scenario, all of it.
post #9 of 63
There are a dozen or so core staples that I wouldn't want to be without and either re-purchase or already have back-ups if they have been discontinued or reformulated.

Sous le Vent
Eau de Guerlain
L'Heure Fougueuse
Granville
Tiffany for Men
Philtre d'Amour
Shalimar etc.

Fahrenheit
Millesime Imperial
Murdocks Black Tea

of what I have right I would buy again

A* men
Declaration
Rose 31
CH

I like them because they are all different
post #12 of 63
Aventus, Have 2 DHIs, Have 2 GPHIIs, VIW, GIT, Pure Malt and Havanne. That's the first ones that come to mind.
post #13 of 63
Maybe 5. Not because I don't like more, but it's unlikely I will finish more that I love than that.

A better indicator would be which bottles, if stolen or lost, would I wish to replace. Please don't make me contemplate that.
post #14 of 63
Rochas Man.
That is unfortunately it.
post #15 of 63
Default re-purchases are Eau de Cologne Imperiale and Eau du Coq, of which I go through a few bottles each year. Mouchoir de Monsieur and Blenheim Bouquet are a few other certain re-purchases.
post #16 of 63
I think I'll buy at least 40% of my collection, I like many of them.
Infact I should say how many wouldn't be bought!
post #17 of 63
...ca. 50% of my wardrobe...!
post #18 of 63
Hmmm. Tough one. I cannot be without Jub 25 even though I wear it only a handful times a year, the rest can go.
post #19 of 63
I adore Boucheron Homme Jaipur EDP and Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan.
post #20 of 63

Égoïste
Antaeus
Sycomore
Fahrenheit
Dune pour Homme


I'd maybe repurchase 50% of my collection,
but especially the five mentioned above.
post #33 of 63
I too only have what i love. I do love some more than others, and those are the ones i wear regularly. I have had quite a few throughout the years that i have purchased, used up, purchased a 2nd time and then couldnt stomach them.
i have a bottle of Emporio HE from 1999 or so that is my 2nd bottle. I can't stand the smell anymore. I go for the bottle now and then, because the memory of when i did wear it is was great. But as soon as i take a wiff, i back off.

Now my main frags are Aventus, Terre d'Hermes, Voyage d'Hermes, Dior Homme (sometimes Intense as well), Prada APH

And on occasion, i spray on some of my vintage D&G PH. Only 2 bottles left.
post #34 of 63
I try to keep updated a top 40 of my collection, so the new 'very most wanted' entries have a place in it. I noticed that in the last couple of years I've bought much more than I expected, so in reality I use only small fractions of the entire collection.
Short answer: about 70% of my wardrobe.
post #35 of 63
Tough call. But I probably wouldn't want to be without Invasion Barbare, Sartorial, 24 rue Cambon, Noir Patchouli and Tubereuse Capricieuse .
post #36 of 63
I think Ungaro III vintage, because i don't have it more than 2 bottles. Memoir Man as well. I guess i have enough of all the rest in my collection so i won't run out off them.
post #37 of 63
1 Million, Angel Men and Mont Blanc Legend.
Not sure if I would purchase Allure Homme Sport again.
post #38 of 63
I'd honestly purchase quite a few of my frags again, but the couple I am gonna need to restock pretty imminently are :

Creed - Aventus

The Different Company - Sel de Vetiver. I absolutely love this stuff, smells really different, unique and amazing.
post #39 of 63
GIT, MI and LIDGE for definite re buys.

Aventus and pure havane maybe..
post #40 of 63
Boss Bottled. Although I still have about 175 ml left.
Possible GPH II
post #41 of 63
DH & DHI, Prada amber ph & Prada Infusion D'homme, Gucci p2 & Armani diamonds.
post #42 of 63
My favourites.
Egoiste, Rive Gauche, 1881, Live Jazz, Kouros, Bulgari PH, Dior Homme, Michael Kors and Nina Ricci Phileas. (If I can find any)
post #43 of 63
Probably all of them, as and when I run out of them. But I reckon that what I have will pretty much see me through until I have to don the old pine overcoat..
post #44 of 63
Kouros
Antaeus
Aramis 900
HdP 1740
Encre Noire
Cuir De Russie

That was surprisingly simple.
post #45 of 63
About of 90% of the fragrances I bought bottles of.
post #46 of 63
Aventus
Dior Homme
YSL L'Homme
Maybe also GPH2 even though I have some longevity issues..

Tuscany by Aramis, have two bottles
Guerlain Vetiver, have one bottle but I will buy again when I run low

Probably about 40 out of my rather large collection. Some of the essentials that I cannot be without are: Bvlgari Black, Burberry London, Eau des Baux, Paul Smith Man, Fahrenheit, Body Korous, Vera Wang, Dunhill Pure, Corduroy, Live Jazz and more.
post #55 of 63
Aventus (30ml) and Chanel PE are running fairly low. I'd buy them both again immediately.

That's a better question. Probably 20 out of my 30.
post #57 of 63
I continually rotate about 70% of my fragrances. Therefore I would purchase them again. The others I will keep for collective purposes.
post #58 of 63
Of the perfumes that I have collected so far, it would be easier to say which I wouldn't buy again. There are really only four that I find either overpriced and underwhelming, or, I just don't like the juice:

Navegar(L'Artisan) V8 anyone?

No. 68(Guerlain) Kitchen sink concoction

Cool Water(Davidoff) Not my cup of juice

Bois d'Armenie(Guerlain) over/under.
post #59 of 63
Fahrenheit
Tonka Imperial
Prada Amber Pour Homme
Tobacco Vanille
Tea for Two
Menthe Fraiche
Pure Havane
Rive Gauche (+1 back up bottle)


Those are fragrances I would definitely purchase again.
post #60 of 63
I think my taste is constantly changing. I can say now I cant live without Odin 01, Allure Edition Blanche, and Pure Havane, my current favorites. I dont love them as much as I did a few months back so I can assume I wont love them as much by the time I ever finish. My collection is constantly growing so I dont see it happening anytime soon. If there was a timeless fragrances I had to buy only due to my work it be Boss Bottled.
