Could you rate my wardrobe too, please?

Thread Starter 
Hi,

I'm a 22 years old student not trying to make a balanced wardrobe and I dont see myself as a collector. I just try to have the ones I like. I dont have that much experience as you do. So dont be so harsh Also I don't easily reach and try out niche fragrances. Will sell some of my colognes(maybe keep 10ml). The ones I might(probably will) be selling are below the line.

Any recommendation are welcome. Thanks.

Dior homme intense
L'instant de Guerlain Pour Homme
L'instant de Guerlain Pour Homme Extreme
Costume National Scent Intense
Pure Havane
Pure Malt
Aventus
Bond No 9 New Haarlem
Chanel Allure edition blanche
Midnight in Paris
Gucci Ph 2
212
Bvlgari extreme
Versace pour Homme and Eau Fraiche(I will give one of them to my brother)
Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme
----------------
Armani Code
DG The One(will get rid of because I got bored of it so easily)
Ferragamo Bergamotto Marino
Ck One Shock
Burberry London
Le male
Hanae Mori Hm

You seem to have a good choice, and already enough if you're really not a collector. It seems you don't like much fresh stuff. If not, have you tried some vetivers, like Tom Ford Grey Vetiver?

I think all of these are pretty good, and a few are really great (like Scent Intense).

You might like to try out a few incenses and a few heavier hitters. Try these out:

Jubilation XXV
Absolue Poir le Soir
Noir de Noir
Kyoto
Royal Oud
L'Air du Desert Marocain
Gris Clair

(Sorry, they're all niche, but you should be able to find decants or samples online for a decent price)

Actually, this is a great collection. 9/10

I would add a Creed to it. And if you like L'Homme, maybe try La Nuit. But overall, solid. Good job man.

I might be mistaken, but isn't Aventus on the original list?

Some nice ones there. Down the road, think about adding YSL La Nuit (as a complement to l'homme), VanCleef and Arpels pour homme (clean, masculine powerhouse scent), and/or Prada Amber (great frag).
All much cheaper than the over-priced, over-rated Creeds.
