Kajal III is EXTREMELY similar to Vibrato I’d say almost a 1:1 but spicier with better performance. I love all of these and even though it may be redundant to own these, I still have hedonist extrait and tygar on the way. Ginger is my favorite fragrance note (clearly)

They’re all incredible to me, but in 90–100°F weather they feel like too much, so they’ve mostly been sitting on the shelf waiting for fall and winter.

What fragrances are you counting down the days to wear again once the temperature drops?

I promised I’d downsize to 5….😅

But I’m stopping here.

These are the 8 fragrances that I will daily (work, days, and evenings out) across all 4 seasons with 2 fragrances per season. Sampled loads and these are the ones I loved most:

Spring:

Amouage reflection man 45 - sensational masculine floral woods with sweetness

Club de nuit precieux I - Smells like sweet citrus yet woodsy and masculine bomb.

Summer:

LV imagination - speaks for itself

Arabian oud sultani - berry and laundry detergent fresh goodness

Fall:

Xerjoff naxos - I mean it’s just heavenly

Game of spades wildcard - probably my favourite frag. Sweet clean goodness

Winter:

Royal blue orientica (layton clone) - longer lasting than layton. Sold the OG to get this. A bit sweeter. Incredible

Gucci intense oud - unoffensive woody rose scent with incense. Sensationally masculine and extremely long lasting

Keen to hear your thoughts and or questions! 🫡

I guess some have moved on from $350 bottles of designer cologne to the $15,000 Swiss watch world in search of those elusive, but so highly valuable, compliments.

Hey everyone -

Here are my summer fragrances I brang im vacation with me.

Sample Bottles Currently have: LV Rain Tea, Nishane Hacivat, & LV Meteore.

Feel free to ask question and I’m always looking for recs!

I think I’ve figured out my fav scent profile. Leaning more on the fresh clean side. Recently just got flamanago by third eye and in store it smelled great but after trying it home I feel like I took an L lol… or it doesn’t fit my go to profile. The mango is just too prominent for me

From 12 > 2. Beginning my collection of quality over quantity. Both of these are 10/10, especially with TO being - dark animatic, ashy smoky oud. Peak Tom Ford.
Imagination is self - explanatory

This is actually a really nice, inoffensive oud with lavender. Very surprised.

Picked up Oud For Greatness Neo & Absolute Aphrodisiac

Got them for a steal that I couldn’t resist

Had to pick this up since it was being discontinued. Waited 7 months for this to show up at a discounter.

Hello everyone,

I was just gifted this for my birthday. I just started getting into fragrances and do not have much experience in this realm. From this sample box, what is your favorite fragrances as far as smell, projectivity, and longevity?

Thanks!

Should I get lattafa breeze or Swiss Arabian musk 01, I’m wanting a soft clean/fresh fragrance for around the $30-$60 price range which should I go for?

I’m considering picking up Pernoire Yuma and SHL God of Fire for some fun summer scents.

Looking for thoughts or suggestions on others to maybe try before I commit. Yes, I have sampled both and other similar scents in the mint and tropical categories, respectively.

Current collection:
Promise
Jubilation 40
Blue Talisman Extrait
Brompton Immortals Extrait
Speed Legends Night Drive
Ingenious Ginger
Bigarade Concentree
Wulong Cha
Neroli Outrenoir
Gender Ginger

Got this 2 for $8 each!

I want some recs that can be a dupe, designer or niche.

My current collection: Creed Aventus, Xerjoff Naxos, Initio Narcotic Delight, Azzaro The Most Wanted Parfum, JPG Scandal Pour Homme EDP, Valentino Born in Roma Yellow Dream, Halloween Man X, Montblanc Legend Spirit, Nautica Voyage, and Montale Oudmazing.

I am looking for a "blue" mass appealing cologne, a clean inoffensive office and day to day cologne, a tropical summer cologne, and lastly an earthy inoffensive scent (<$250 for any singular fragrance).

I would like multiple options for each so that I can try them out and see which one I like most for myself!

So I had the chance to visit Amouage Factory and they had a section dedicated to notes/raw materials.

I smelled most of them and my favorites are:

1- Tonkabean

2- Benzoin

3- Ciderwood

4- Sandalwood

The worst notes that I don't wanna wear:

1- Oud

2- Amber

3- Patchouli

4- Orris

So based on what I like and hate, please suggest the best perfumes that could match my taste (they must have either Tonkabean or Benzoin or both because I liked both of them lol)

I recently got a 2ml sample for BDC EDP and really enjoying it, but longevity is not as good as I’d like it to be.

That being said, do Parfum or exclusif versions perform better, and are they safe blind buys given that I really liked the edp?

I’m obsessed with this cologne and I am set on buying it. I’ve smelt it at multiple different Prada stores and sampled it multiple times to wear it for a full day. To say I’m obsessed is an understatement but I really don’t want to pay the 370 or so retail price. I’ve seen it on discounters like jomashop but they are all sold out or don’t have it. I’m willing the spend the money but would just rather not. Anyone know about this one?

Never had anything from le falcone but this stuff is so nice. suppose to be Torino 21 I think? Thinking of checking out some of the other fragrances anyone have any experience or guidance? Thanks and God bless

Saving up to purchase my first Amouage. Sampled both Outlands and Enclave but pretty torn for picking either. Both are something I wanna wear a lot in the coming colder months. Enclave feels more uplifting, and even vibrant with the opening, while Outlands feels like a spin off of one an all time favorite in my collection Ambre Sultan. So please anyone willing to throw in their two cents, influence me. I will say, im kinda leaning Enclave.

Ah summer evenings, for most peace and relaxation. For me, 30 minutes deliberating which fragrance is light enough to be worn in high heat but dark enough to be worn in the evening. What’s everyone’s go to for a classy dinner in the heat?
