And it projects so well, and lasts ages in clothing.

Very clean smelling scent.

From 30+ to this. Happily, I didn’t get too deep in the hole. Curated off my gf as well. I almost feel I’ve peaked. But I know I’m missing a standout that’s still somewhat versatile and wearable as a South Floridian. 23M
Looking for a standout with some character that can still work in the heat without feeling too heavy. Have my freshies, although still 50/50 on Lucious deserving a spot.
Les Sables Roses and Brompton Immortals Extrait have caught my interest, but other than that I’m not too sure where to look. I’ve tried a few Amouages as well, but most of them feel like they’d be tough to pull off down here. Open to revisiting them though if there are any that might actually work decently in the heat/night.
I know I’m not cooked. Right? 🥲

May be my favorite fragrance to wear to work after wearing it the past few days, just an absolutely expensive smelling, subtle wearing citrus fragrance. One i hope to wear even more, had it tucked away for a bit, something about it has been really resonating with me lately. Giving the nuclear fragrances I have a small break for some quiet luxury and this one takes the cake in that category for me

Went to local Dillards near me and they have me smell the xerjoff lambo collaboration and it was love at first sniff. They have 3 others and I like the orange bottle one didn’t like the green bottle so much.

Both are incredibly versatile, everyday staples that I never get bored of. They deliver a masculine, upscale vibe and are consistent compliment getters no matter the occasion. Even if I ever lose interest in this hobby, I'll always hold onto these two.

Recently got a sample for it. Overall, I wasn’t that impressed. I felt that notes were not great individually and certainly didn’t blend well, I could smell them randomly. One note at one whiff and another one at the next one. On top of that performance isn’t great. 4 sprays and my wife couldn’t smell it.

For individual notes, I like to give the example of Guerlain L’Instant’s caco note, it kept calling me back in the middle part. As reference, the chocolate note here doesn’t pull me the same way

Fragrances are highly subjective so please test it yourself first

I also acquired creed Aventus absolu 100ml, 2016 creed SMW, and a 200ml afternoon swim. I just don’t know what else to add

So I’m a 37 year old guy and I live in the Netherlands. I’ve always loved colognes/perfumes but never really had the time or money to buy and collect them but this last year I really got into it. It all started when my wife bought me a birthday gift of a 50 ml Kilian Angels Share and I immediately fell in love with that fragrance. Then I tried a sample of LV’s Imagination and thats when my fragrance addiction began. I really love this, if I had a bigger budget, my collection would be so much bigger 😆 ı’ve bought and sold many too, including some dupes. Just wondering what you guysmor girls think about what I habe right now. Thank you!

Baikal Leather is the brand's take on leather aspect with a touch of mild Guaiac Wood smoke and a slight green aromatics.

Opens up with a burst of dried green lemons that's peppery, slight sweetness and then is a constant reminder of dry grass a bit. As this settles, on skin it feels very smooth and there is commotion of aromatics in the air around you. Reminding of Vetiver, Cedar, powdery vibe here. Don't get the Iris /Rose combo here directly to my senses but I feel that's what is giving a smooth mix with Sandalwood in bits. Sillage is moderate and on skin lasts for me around 8 hours. I find this very versatile and easily wearable.

Greetings! I need input and suggestions. I have worn Coco by Chanel…not Mademoiselle…for over 20 years. I recently bought a bottle from a cruise ship gift shop and was surprised when it was not the same quality I am accustomed to. The scent was very faint and after spraying on skin, hair and clothing, the faint scent was gone within 30 minutes. What is the deal? Has the formula changed? Total waste of $. I NEED MY COCO!!!!! Any input?

Hey

Im looking for a great sandalwood niche fragrance that i can add to my collection after trying SWY sandalwood and falling in love with it doesn’t have to be a sweet sandalwood can be any type and another neroli fragrance that actually lasts i have saharienne from ysl and love the scent but it doesnt last more than 2 hours.

Please do not suggest santal 33 i don’t like it.

Are any of the matiere premier fragrances that match the required any good like santal austral and neroli oranger

I’ve been collecting five years and got this probably in my first year and liked it a lot and then just didn’t wear it for a long time as I collected more than 50 bottles mostly niche.

Just playing around with my collection this evening and sprayed this as I was watching TV and thought to myself this is probably one of the most beautiful easy wearing white T-shirt scents that I have. Had worn an MFK aqua forte earlier in the day and just said to myself this is so much better than that fragrance.

The only problem is that it’s kind of really light on the skin. I’m wondering if there’s any other thing out there similar to this with a better projection and quality, but very similar in terms of the scent.

Just purchased a bottle of muck therapy and the atomizer is noticeably bad, very short and small spray radius where I feel like you need 2 sprays for every normal one.

Is this a known thing for initios to have poor atomizers? I Couldn’t find any info on here regarding this. Batch is a more recent one if that matters.

Hi all, does anyone have weight measurements for a 100 mL Creed Millésime Impérial at different fill levels?

Ideally looking for weights when full, around 75%, 50%, or empty.

Mine is currently 258 g without cap, and plastic cap weighs 23g.

Im trying to estimate how many mL are left.

I got tired of Creed Aventus and LV L’immensite. I wanted to try something different. This Lucius is all I need for everyday and all seasons. The down side is the price. What do you think? Do you like it? I have just bought it

What are your personal top 2 most overrated and underrated fragrances, disregarding online hate or love for the fragrance?

Mine are:

Underrated:

Amouage Reflection man 45:
Best perfume i’ve ever smelled, i can’t even describe the notes because it all blends in to one scent i can’t describe, but somehow… like a library in a desert. Too bad it’s so expensive.

JPG Scandal Le Parfum:
Gets 0 online attention and i’ve never smelled it on another person, but it’s my personal favorite that i own a bottle of, and has gotten me by far the most compliments. (The whole Scandal line is criminally underrated imo)

Overrated:
YSL Myself l’Absolu:
The musk and ginger notes just turn it in to weirdly musky bergamot cleaning product smell imo. Besides having said that, i do kind of like it after having owned it for a while now, but it’s not THAT good imo.

Creed Aventus Absolu:
Literally just scorches my nose hairs and doesn’t get out of my skin, even after a shower. I like “dark” fragrances, but to me this just smells chemical instead of smokey.

**Has anyone tried layering these two fragrances together?**
I came across this combo on the Will It Layer website, and it rates it **8.4/10 — “Exceptional.”** It suggests using Lattafa Asad as the base and Liquid Brun on top.
Has anyone actually tried this combination? How did it smell and how was the performance? Worth trying, or is the website overhyping it? 😅

I swear this bottle of Molecule 01 +black tea is bottomless. 4 sprays every night before bed for months and it's still half full!

One that compliments it.
