>>18165526The Fragrance Flowchart for Beginners
You don't need more.
>>18165530Parfum is way better
>>18165528It's a good one. Wore it all spring
What would he wear?
>>18165530The EDP is absolutely peng.
>>18165567Davidoff Cool Water
>>18165567Seinfeld originally debuted in 1989 so do you think he'd wear Aspen by Coty, or would George be more of an Elizabeth Taylor Passion kind of guy?
>>18165527>>18165531garbage as always>>18165530actual trash
>>18165600Did you actually post your collection yet, mowgli?
>>18165600>garbage as alwaysno u>actual trashactually yes>>18165601take your meds
>>18165567Zino
>>18163685The goatfucker juices have arrived today, man.. supremacy incense is just ridiculously good. I wonder if it'll macerate and change over time>>18165548garbage>>18165567Polo green
>>18165601did you actually take your meds yet, schizo ESL?>>18165567i don’t know about george, but i find it very funny that kramer’s whole “cologne that smells like the beach” thing is basically just taking the piss out of aquatics. and there’s something funny about him pitching it to a brand that never ended up making an aquatic either.
>>18165660hahaha really funny o am i laffin
SOTY 2024
>>18165674t. has never watched seinfeld
So you're telling me Jeremy has now resorted to making posts about how amazing his ear hair is. Bad enough the guy coughed up a tonsil stone, now he is showing everyone how long his ear hair is and taking multiple pictures to show everyone how cool it is? baka
>>18165693how is any of that NOT based?
Are these worth discovering?
>>18165702nope, all PdM frags are slop, no exceptions
LET ME GUESS, YOU NEED MORE?
>>18165702haltane, carlisle, greenly and herod
>>18165698I'm starting to understand why he doesn't have any of the female guests on his channel anymore.
>>18165725yes
What do I wear at the gym that will smell nice mixed with my sweat
>>18165713I got the ELDO discovery pack but im a bit disappointed. Even the ones I really like are not really that wearable its more of an experience sampling them, but i cant picture myself wearing them maybe except frustration, spice must flow and someone like you
>>18165790Well they are approaching perfumery as an art form not just as a pleasant diversion.This thread could learn a lot from that approach...
less smelly boy formerly known as smelly boywhat is the difference between water of toilet and other spray thingys
What's the verdict?
>>18165814slop
>>18165809Yeah, when you read about the inspiration behind the fragrance things start getting interesting.Its just I think that when it comes to utility designer frags are usually the way to go.That is also why i am asking about pdm, as to me they seem more the creed type of niche rather than the artsy type like eldo and imaginary authors.Never smelled any of them though so im curious because im looking for something that I can actually wear on a semi daily basis
>>18165814great fun fragrance
.
>>18165825PdM is unironically overpriced slop and nothing moreread the OP, check the charts, lurk moar - you can find actual good frags in every single thread>SOTD: Nicolai Odalisque
>>18165530OG Kenzo is the best>>18165814I recently enjoy fruity scents, could be fun>>18165774Aventus with the musk
>>18164324of course it's fresh, it smells like green tomatoes
>>18165774Guerlain Vetiver.
Do Loewe have any frag that's good? I know they make an Aventus clone
>>18165860oil house farmed LVMHslop
>>18165774Allure Homme Eau ExtremeKouros if you're a real man
these'll do for a while
>>18165877What's the leftmost one
>>18165879one spray of it into a pillow stunk out an entire room for 12hrs
Best fragrances for a manlet?
>>18165903see:>>18165837
>>18165903Armaf CDNIM LE
>>18165910lol, lmao even
>>18165910>>18165928Ill just get sauvage then
yeah, i'm calling based
>>18166002>inb4 it's the usual arabslop she's been pushing for some time now
>>18165810eau de toilette is lower concentration than edp and parfum, but higher than eau de cologne
Opinions on dupe/copycat/inspire by fragrances? I never buy the real thing because it's always very expensive, where as with inspired bys you can get let's say 100ml of sauvage with 17$.Bulk fragrance baby, cheap and smells great.
Which one would you is best for attracting college girls?
>>18166026probably BdC. I like TdH more, but it's not known for being thot magnets
>>18166024i like them because they rob cut throat perfume jews of their profits
>>18166026BdC by a mile.
>>18166030That's the spirit, I totally agree with you Dior has a market cap of $128.98 Billion.Creed was acquired by Kering for €3.5 billion.Versace currently valued at $1.7 billionDolce & Gabbana at currently $5.3 billionGiorgio Armani net worth of $9.6 billion,Tom ford 2.8 billion Prada 4.8 billionPaco rabbane 28 million poor babiesI have 3 thousand, no home, no car. Thank god I have parents.
>>18166029>>18166039Is BdC better than Sauvage by Dior? Whats the best cologne as a thot magnet?
>>18166041>Paco rabbane 28 millionno way, that basically makes pr an indie house
>>18166026Apparently Terre d’Hermes is for attracting men. Kinda like Aventus, you wear it to make twinks blush at the idea of you domming them.
>>18166045>Whats the best cologne as a thot magnet?StercusSecretions MagnifiquesNekro Dellamorte(in no specific order)
>>18166056>inb4 no cologne in the listgo fuck yourself
>>18166045BDC is the better frag, Sauvage is the better magnet
>>18166026holy fucking ESL>>18166041>>18166049all those other brands (excluding creed which is an outlier) have huge luxury fashion businesses. half of them outsource their perfume and cosmetics operations to loreal, estee lauder, etc. paco rabanne at this point is purely a perfume house and it reflects their ownership (puig). of course they’re not going to have as high of a market cap.
>>18166061Didn't know that about L'Oreal
>>18166064L'Oréal are an astronomically large business
>>18166064didn’t know what about l’oreal, that they own the perfume license for every brand owned by kering (YSL, gucci, balenciaga etc.) or that they’ve consistently bastardized the legacies of every perfume house under their stewardship?
>>18166070stop being such a dramatic cunt for 1 sec
>>18166075stop sobbing and bitching and moaning at my every word for 1 sec
>>18166068230 billion it looks like
>>18166070I didn't know either
>>18166084well now you do, and now you can boycott them like any rational informed person should.
>>18166085Boycott? That's extreme, how would I even do something like that? The most I can do is buy dupes, and that's not really affecting them but I sure do enjoy spending less
>>18166093easy: buy vintage and secondhand only. not like anything in their current catalog is good anyways.
Just got this and I like it
>>18166026TdH is great if you wanna attract bitches with daddy issues.
wtf I love fragrantica now
more stuff>Dior Jules 2016Reminds me of Kouros in the beginning, but overall less powdery and doesn't have the civet tinge that vintage Kouros has. Kouros goes more in a musky, slightly powdery direction, and Jules moves more into greens. I think Jules is easier to wear (at least compared to vintage Kouros), but still has that classic 80s powerhouse smell minus the animalics.>Lomani El PasoI enjoy Lomani PH, so I couldn't resist getting this. Citrus and lavender blast accompanied by some spice and nutmeg with some light woods in the back. A familiar everyday fresh smell. People compare this to Platinum Egoiste, but it lacks the squeaky clean almost metallic sheen that PE has. Atomizer kinda sucks, but it's a fun wear.
>>18166152never thought i see a man admit to wearing a perfume from a stiletto heels brand
looks like Zoologist has restocked samples as they said, outside of a few (Chamelon, Dragonfly). Doubt I'll find anything bottle worthy but my interest has been peaked by marketing. Thinking.. T Rex, Harvest Mouse, Squid, Penguin, Macaque Yuzu, Koala .. any suggestions to finish an 8 pack? Sloth, Elephant, Cow.. all the Green's sort of seem similar. Scarab could be interesting. I've already sampled Civet - it was lovely.
>>18165790>>18165825Not sure if you were looking at them due to my post in the last thread regarding good discovery sets, but like I mentioned, ELDO gets a lot more experimental with their frags. Naturally this results in some really interesting frags, but also a lot of flops.The ones you named are definitely very wearable, but Ghost in the Shell is also VERY wearable and great, Filipino Houseboy is wearable albeit a bit light/weak but it’s a hot weather frag anyway. (Side note, I never realized rice had a smell until I recognized it totally unprompted in Filipino Houseboy.) Fat Electrician is pretty unique and situationally wearable, 500 Years and Soul of my Soul are slight variations of Spice Must Flow which is fantastic btw. Hermann is a bit different but wearable, imo. I Am Trash and to a lesser extent Exit the King are also very popular if you like fruity/floral.Then you have the stuff that’s just a little weird but usually interesting, not full bottle worthy, but worth experiencing. Fin du Monde, Jasmin et Cigarette, Attaquar Soleil… etc. Dot not get shit from PdM or Creed though. The ones that aren’t total trash are still wildly overpriced for what they are. >>18166002As if it wasn't already blatantly obvious that she’s JUST a shill and not actually any kind of fragrance reviewer, she just hops on the band wagon of the latest trend just to try and drudge up any attention she can get, even if it’s completely unrelated. That’s the kind of shit that reminds me of when cryptocurrency was first starting to make it into the public eye and everyone would just slap the words “block chain” at the end of their product to try and get sales. >>18166026TdH is traditionally an adult/mature fragrance, not for attracting girls, but neither is BdC. BdC is just a generic, safe all around frag. >>18166189Yeah, apparently Fragrantica was started by a… Russian(?) woman, and thus carries some of their ideologies if you’re looking for them.
Who are your favourite fragtubers?For me:1. Mr. Smelly: great taste and funny British jokes. 2. Just Boz: interesting to hear some opinions from the absolute fringes of society. Sometimes you can hear an old woman cough during his reviews, I assume it's his mom.3 Cubaknow: He's a funny whigger4. The Scented: She's some wop from Canada, I'd put it in her mouth5. Greta Bath: Botox milf from the US, same reason as above
mm mm MMM
why is this almost only reviewed by black youtubers? I cannot trust their opinions, as I know they're only buying this for the flex of the price tag
>>18166233If Harvest Mouse interests you I would recommend Rabbit as well. The other 5 you mentioned are also pretty good/interesting (I full bottled Penguin), but I found Fuji Apple better than the Yuzu. Cow is also pretty unique, Sloth was good but Elephant didn’t wow me. If you’ve ever smelled ELDO’s Spice Must Flow then Camel is very similar. If you liked Civet I would recommend Beaver, perhaps Musk Deer. Personally I -hated- it, but Bee is unique in that it has this very weird, synthetically sweet note which after you recognize it you see they use in quite a few of their frags, (Chameleon, Nightingale, Hummingbird, Moth) Bee takes the note up to 11 though, where the others are like a 5-6. They’re all very open to interpretation, but I would avoid Cockatiel (the worst), both Dodos, Hyrax, Rhino, Bat, Tiger, and Snowy Owl. They’re bad for different reasons, but they were all pretty terrible. If you really only have two spots and like Civet I’d suggest picking between Musk Deer and Beaver, then… probably Cow… but frankly I think there are several more with trying.
>>18166189Unfathomably based, do you think the owners of fragrantica wear Kouros?
>>18166342Seeing how based they are, they probably wear Encre Noire.
>>18166342>>18166387>poorly programmed website compared to Parfumo>lacking fragrance database>muh le based
>>18166393>>poorly programmed website compared to Parfumo>>lacking fragrance databaseSounds pretty based to me.
>>18165882Is this another Angel Share clone?
>>18166393not true>>18166412obviously yes
Educate yourselves
120 seconds into fragrances and I'm already sneezing, itchy and everyone telling me that my scent is not unique and I smell like everyone else.
>>18166479KWAB>SOTD: EP Mon Vetivermy current favorite of their lineupgreat dumb reach frag for summer
>>18166455Everyone complaining how sauvage will remind her of her ex. How about trying to date a virgin and avoid ex havers?
>>18166302I like Ramsay and Varanis Ridari the most. Joy Amin, MrSmelly, UrbanDweller, Scentsofsouthjersey, ScentZatura ar also finethe biggest fragtubers suck though
What does MFK Amyris Homme smell like? Does someone here have it?
>>18166217agreed. sotd jules
>>18165877What is l'eau d'issey like
>>18166393Spotted the tranny.
>>18166393>>lacking fragrance databaseJust scrape it
>>18166393>poorly programmed websiteat least the programmer never irreperably broke the site, like what happened with Basenotes, lol
>>18166489My only problem with Gay Dragon is how he sometimes goes on such a long tirades about fragrbros or expensive brands that it kind of overshadows the actual review. And I fucking hate fragbros and find houses like Initio funny in their made-up luxury image, sure, but every time he goes on a rant like that, I feel like I’ve seen it a dozen times already. Preaching to the choir etc.
>>18166556yeah it's true he gets ranty sometimes. on the other hand, the youtube perfume scene is so dominated by luxury scams, paid shilling and fragbros that I get his need to vent
