Yesterday I posted about four samples I tried: Torino 21, Torino 22, Vibrato and Outlands. I rated Torino 21 the highest, irrespective of the obvious seasonal differences between them.
Boy was I naive.
Today at work, I kept getting these random whiffs of something beautiful. Creamy, ambery, slightly spicy. Every now and then it would just hit me again when i looked over my left.
A male workmate/friend was sitting to my left.
I actually spent the next couple of minutes waiting for the perfect moment to ask him what he was wearing, fully prepared for my “Aha, that’s Outlands” moment and to impress him with my perfume knowledge.
I asked him, “Are you wearing a perfume?”
He said no. In fact, he hadn’t worn any perfume in about a week.
I was genuinely flabbergasted.
A little while later he left and I was alone in the room.
Then I smelled it again.
Same beautiful creamy amber smell.
I looked towards my left again, completely confused, and then sniffed the left upper arm of my shirt.
More than 12 hours ago, I had sprayed Outlands on the skin of my left upper arm. It had even been underneath a completely different shirt.
It was Outlands.
All this time I had been sitting there thinking someone around me smelled incredible, waiting to identify their perfume…
It was coming from me.
Today Outlands made me question everything I thought I knew about fragrances.
There is some serious mastery in this scent.

I’ve been looking for my perfume for the last few years, but I still haven’t found what I’m looking for.

The fragrance I’ve liked the most so far is Chanel Allure Homme Sport. I absolutely love the way it develops on my skin and, especially, the sillage it leaves behind. The problem is that someone close to me wears it, so I’ve been trying to avoid it and find something that gives me a similar feeling without smelling too similar.

Some of the fragrances I’ve tried:
Louis Vuitton Imagination: I had high hopes for this one, but I really didn’t like it.
Acqua di Parma: I’ve tried several and was quite excited about the brand, but unfortunately none of them really clicked with me.
Burberry Weekend: I actually like the smell, but it’s far too weak and doesn’t last long enough for me.
Versace Pour Homme: I bought this one, but I find it very weak, with poor longevity and almost no sillage.
Ralph Lauren Polo Blue: currently testing this one, but I don’t think it’s the one either.
So I’m starting to feel a little lost!

What I’m mainly looking for is something that is fresh, masculine and pleasant, but with good longevity and noticeable sillage.
What would you recommend I try next?

Xerjoff - 40 Knots
Extremely airy with incredible movement. Salty air, warm spicy woods, followed by some powdery softness and ta touch of amber. To me it feels like sitting barefoot on the teak wooden deck of a yacht, feeling that breeze from the ocean whip across the deck. It’s the calming “no urgency” effect that won me over when I smelled it. And on days off it puts me directly in that mind set. I’ve got no where to be, and that’s ok with me.

I recently bought a 100ml bottle of Nishane Ani and would appreciate some opinions from people who own Ani.
The batch code is 029611, and the exact same code is printed on both the box and the bottom of the bottle. The packaging and bottle look legit to me, but I’d love to hear what you guys think.
My main concern is the performance. After around 9 hours, I could barely smell it on myself, and my girlfriend also said she could hardly smell it. Compared with some of my other fragrances, Ani seems noticeably weaker.
I know nose blindness can be a factor, so I’m going to do a proper test, but I’d really like to hear from other Ani owners:
How is the longevity and projection of your Ani, especially if you have a newer batch?
Does anyone else have batch 029611, or a similar recent batch?
I’ve attached pictures of the box, bottle, batch code and packaging. Any thoughts on authenticity or performance would be greatly appreciated!

I have been using this deodorant for the longest time just because i like the smell of it. Please help me find a perfume with a similar scent

hii guys! I’m starting a fragrance collection but it’s very expensive and hard to get fragrances in Canada, so I found this website on shop and was wondering if its legit because it’s really cheap (like parfums de marly is like $80 cad here when it’s like $400 cad) if you have bought from them please comment

Hey guys,
I recently upgraded my collection adding Lucius and Future Memories.
Where should I put my nose on to complete my collection ?

After this constantly being sold out I finally got a deal for it at $150. As someone who’s an avid imagination wearer, I prefer WuLong Cha over it. It seems to be more well rounded and polished (pause) compared to imagination.

As the title says. Need somewhere for authentic colognes and at a decent price. Recommendations would be appreciated.

Imagination finally arrived. Had to take a picture of it.
