Could we have a fragrance thread that's focused on actually smelling good and attractive rather than obsessing over painfully dated stuff that smells like what your grandpa wears?I'm trying to find a good fragrance for this winter, something that's versatile, sweet and sexy. I used to wear Noir Extreme but finished the bottle and am looking to try something new.

>>18559713YSL La Nuit De L'Homme Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Le ParfumDior Homme Intense Dior Homme Parfum Givenchy Gentleman Reserve PriveeTom Ford Noir (not the extreme)Chanel EgoisteI would generally recommend you to avoid niche fragrances. It's mostly a cash grab and if you've ever visited a fragrance exhibition, they'll literally tell you that they mark up the price because of marketing and not because they spend particularly more on the juice from a raw ingredient stand point. Getting the ingredient can be more costly because they won't get the same bulk discounts as say Prada or Dior. There are some phenomenal niche fragrances though, but they're few and far apart. What's your budget?
>>18559713My wife likes Guerlain Vetiver and Guerlain habit rouge.
>>18559713Red TobaccoArgue with the wall
>>18559713H24, I've bought like hundreds of samples and it turns out this is all you need.
>>18559713
Ignore the suggestions in this thread. I have smelled every single fragrance suggested in this thread thus far. Get Noir Extreme Parfum. It is the one in the solid gold bottle; it is a marked improvement over something you already like. Manlier, bolder, longer lasting — but still sweet.
>>18559894Disregard this. I meant to say you should get Spicebomb Extreme, not this faggot shit.
>>18559713Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, all you need.
>>18559915Spicebomb Extreme takes the original Wpicebomb (which is good) and covers it in cheap vanilla frosting. It is trash for idiots. If you wear that slop then please slit your wrists.
Creed Adventus (Club de Nuit too) and most of Tom Ford
>>18559894NE is better than NEP
>>18559894it's literally made with horse manure
>>18559721>Chanel EgoisteNigga is crazy for other things but mostly for this. No one irl will think you smell good if you wear that.
>>18560186It smells good in the air.
Just buy Creed Aventus if you want compliments
>>18559713>>18560223Question for fellow europoors.What's the deal with the listings on Vinted? There's listing for like Creed and Tom Ford, 100ml sealed.. 35€ . AND the sellers have good reviews.Where's the catch? Is it counterfeit or is it stolen?
>>18560245Counterfeit
>>18560248Ok, so they get the packing right but the juice doesn't smell like the original?
>>18560250How retarded are you? Do you think you are getting what's in the photos? They take pictures of the real thing and send you fakes.
>>18560252Those sellers get good reviews, so yeah, they must send something that seems original.
>>18559759Do you prefer the EDT or EDP?
>>18559716my pick would be NV or Exterme. the whole line is good imo
Why does this note make everything smell worse? I think maybe because I smelt it a lot in oldschool British perfumery and associate it with old but I'm really not sure
Anyway some current faves I recommend>MFK L'homme A la Rose Fresh green masc rose, only rose frag I really like apart from Ultime which is now discontinued>Torino 22 XerjoffAiry tea-saffron-eucalyptus over wood, v versatile yet heavenly and well complimented>Tom Ford Black Orchid Parfum slightly masc version of the OG, decadent gourmandy floral women love this shit>Lorenzo Pazzaglia Black SeaIt's a sexy salty dark marine that doesn't smell like a fish market, probably the only niche marine I ever wore in public>D&G The One Intense for menThis is in the same ballpark as Noir Extreme, OP, except its citrusy and more leathery, not too unlike NE Parfum imo>Kilian Smoking HotSmoky mysterious sweet apple hookah, would not call it versatile though, probably more for a fun night out
>>18560254Club De Nuit is 99.9% the same. Normal people can't tell the difference.
>>18560351>MFK L'homme A la Rosesounds good but how do people pay so much for fragrance
>>18559716Extreme is my favorite
>>18559713Try initio paragon. It's very unique. Sweet, woody, aromatic. Beautiful scent. Or try mfk gentle fluidity silver. Smells like gin and tonic but in the best way. Similar to aventus in dry down.vvery unique as well. You definitely don't want to gay shit like sauvage and bdc
>>18560388do you know what a chav and a pajeet is
>>18560388I'm not wealthy at all but some tips are>try samples of things that are intriguing/have notes you like>buy only a handful of the absolute best you find>buy the smallest available bottles or used bottles online
>>18559713Brother, I also had Noir Extreme, PLEASE go try this, spray a couple of times on your wrist and WAIT FOR THE DRYDOWN, its Fucking Magic. This is your next natural step. It needs a bit to Macerate, maybe a few weeks to a month.Sexy as fuck, date night, women will go crazy im telling you (From experience)
>>18560455I've heard that this is the only PdM worth getting. Is it true?
>>18560462you're being trolled, you moron
>>18560472So they're all terrible?
>>18560474They're not terrible, really, but for the most part you're buying just above average fragrances and charged premium for le royal french heritage mythos and fancy bottle
>>18560462Listen, go try it yourself. Im not trolling at all, Yes this is 4chan and everyone is a fucking moron and argues, but please if there is a retailer near you where you can test these then please do and judge for yourself. Its the Drydown thats incredible, so spray shots on your hand and go for a walk then smell it. The opening is rather metallic and sharp for the first few seconds, but the drydown is beautiful. You said you wanted Sexy? You fucking got it. No, never Blind Buy any fragrence, these arent cheap but theyre worth the investment. Also, try Sedley while youre there. >>18560474No, theyre not all terrible.
>>18559732Based wife
Any scent that smells like teen girl socks?
>>18560789Why don't you just get a girlfriend?
Androsterone is the only answer
>>18560474PDM is like the indie band that went viral and is now considered cringe by the same people who liked them initially after they blew up. They're still good but don't expect brownie points for liking them is what it all boils down to
>>18560351Is the Tom ford black orchard good?I’ve been wearing Paco rabanne 1million for the longest and need a switch up.
Thoughts on LMLP vs Elixir vs Absolu?
>CarlisleThe only good part of Carlisle is the part that smells like Herod, and Herod itself is inferior to Side Effect.SE > Herod >Carlisle
Ombre Nomade is the best winter fragrance for men and if you disagree it's probably because you're a coping poorbrown.
>>18560869LMLP > Le Male Elixir > Absolue Absolu smells terrible idk why these frag women on yt keeps chilling it.
Nothing (and I mean nothing) has given me more compliments from women than Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce.
>>18560854>Tom ford black orchard
>>18561011The plum note is pretty good and the drydown is absolutely magnificent
>>18560884Thats an interesting take, ill go try Herod again and see what youre talking about. The notes are super different though. Side effect is fucking good, so is Psychodelic love, but bother can lean a bit feminine. OP has to be a stud for it to work I think.
>thread with sane discussion about frags that actually smell attractivethis should be more frequent
>>18561092I second this.
>>18561092>still no girl’s used socks fragrance
>>18560854Yes, Black Orchorde parfum is great if you can tolerate something that's unisex. It's nothing like 1 million though other than being good for social outings, so sample before buying like always
>>18559721>YSL La Nuit De L'Homme>Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Le ParfumYes but you will remind women of their abusive exes immediately>Dior Homme Intense>Dior Homme ParfumYes but people reading this should be aware these can be reminiscent lipstick/women's cosmetics due to prominent iris>Tom Ford Noir>Chanel EgoisteGrandpa frags
>>18561298absolute dogshit taste
>>18561097We could start a /asg/ - attractive scent general or something of the sort
Tried Scandal EDT at the mall today. Really good stuff especially on the drydown. The caramel top note is kinda annoying but it smooths out into something that's both fresh and cozy, leans a bit juvenile but it's still goodI don't understand why people cream themselves over SWY Intensely though, it just smells like sugary chestnuts to me
>>18561372>Scandal EDTI woman I know go crazy for Scandal on the dry-down. I don't get it.
>>18560351Throwing in some bonus all-time faves but discontinued so only if you can get a good deal on them>Valentino Uomo Acqua watery green tomato stem + iris, unique for a designer and versatile, twas the best from that line>Armani Code Absolulike wearing a smooth suede coat while a spiced vanilla dessert is being served, def my most complimented
>>18561300He's right. Noir smells like a grandma actuallyAn elegant old woman
>>18561794Yep, could be an old lady too if you get facets of Shalimar or any number of past eras frags, but the powder and geranium reminds me of this mens one from 1877 called Marlborough Cologne. Pretty sure Ford himself said he took inspiration from old world old timey shit and you can see/smell it in releases like this and Violet Blonde
Which current designer scents (not clones) are the "beastmode" meme? Or at least have very good projection and longevity? Aside from LM Elixir/Elixir Absolu, Sauvage Elixir, SWY Intensely
>>18561849Boss bottled absolu is up there. BdC EdT projects and lasts like mad on me (incl. clothes). Hmm, what else. Longevity on current LNDL batches are mad. They last for up to 48 hours, seriously. The scent will be in your bubble for the first 12 - 24 and resign to a skin-scent after that. Worth picking up now 100% if you love the dna. Same goes for Prada Luna Rossa Black. I wish the original L'Homme from YSL had that kind of longevity, women love the smell itself. Versace Eros EdT/EdP and Boss Bottled Elixir is also up there, come to think of it. Beastmode or just shy of beastmode performance.
>>18562045LNDL lasts now? It used to be The One tier
What's that typical JPG note I get every time on the drydown of almost every JPG frag (all Le Male flankers except the OG, and Scandal)? It's sweet and sexy but doesn't seem vanillic to me
>>18561849Sel D'Issey
>>18562048Tonka
>>18562056Man I don't care if this is basic normalfag taste it's becoming my favorite noteWhat are the best tonka frags with that kind of smooth sexy drydown?
>>18562046It lasts. Even the projection is way, way better than before. They discontinued the EdP and Le Parfum, but buffed up the EdT in return. I can even smell it on my clothes on day 3.
>>18562087You should check out Allure Home Sport Eau Extreme if you're fond of tonka-drydown.
>>18562103I tried it but it smelled like lemon pie to meI didn't get the JPG-style tonka drydown from it either
>>18562110>lemon pieSure you're not mixing it up with Edition Blanche?
>>18562114No I distinctly remember trying CAHSEE, it smelled like a very sweet citrus
>>18562055Can second this, and it lasts very long for something Issey Miyake and cheap, think I got at least 24 hours on my sample
>>185620871725 by Histoires de Parfums
>>18562124>No I distinctly remember trying CAHSEE, it smelled like a very sweet citrusIt smells like orange in the opening but it leaves after 30 minutes and the scent eventually dries down into an aldehydic tonka that is creamy and fresh.
>>18560245Fake, last few years i dont buy parfumes and luxury brands at Vinted at all.. All of them are fake
>had analsex with my GF>came in her ass>afterwards she went to the toilet>alot of cumfarts>a whift of Drakkar Noir came to meYup, my SOTD
been wearing this clone of tom ford's tobacco vanille, I love it
>>18562987How similar is it to the real TF tobacco vanille?
>>18562994no clue (I'm poor) but it's smokey and heavy on the vanilla and it's like 30 bucks for a 100ml bottle of it
>>18562987The names for their dupes>Aqua di Giorgi>Spicebloom Extreme>Egoistic Platinum>Greenish Irish Tweed
>>18561101Salome Papillon smells like used panties but I guess this is the basic bitch perfumes thread so maybe I shouldn’t have told you that
>>18559959Based
>>18559959That's a little too old school for most. That's like suggesting Duc de Vervins or Drakkar Noir. Smelling like an 80's or 90's man will make OP seethe. Didn't you read the post?>>18559713You know there's a reason the old school stuff is still among the most popular fragrances, right?If you want to smell like a highschool boy because you're trying to get bisexual chicks who never emotionally moved past highschool by all means go for something like Aventus or Ultra Male.One of the most popular right now is Lattafa Asad which is a knock off of Sauvage Elixir which ripped off Drakkar Noir.
>>18563208>the old school stuff is still among the most popular fragrances,Only boomers wear stuff like azzarro pour homme or whateverThe most popular stuff is blue frags and gourmands and they are by far the most liked and attractive
>compliment getter
>>18563333checkedIt annoys me how most brands have 36 flankers for their flagship fragrance, it's impossible to test all of them
Ive never gone wrong with Dior Sauvage Edt. Women will say that they don't like it, it's too mainstream etc. but whenever I wear it the reactions tells me otherwise. Even the female niche snobs yields.
>>18562045I have literally never heard of existing fragrances increasing in performance. Big if true. I always wanted LNDL, but only heard bad stories after reformulations. Smells fucking amazing tho
>>18563341A&F Fierce and LNDL have better performance compared to 5 years ago. The LNDL change happened this year though. It's amazing now.
>>18563335Sauvage EdT and Le Male Elixir/Le Parfum is as safe as it gets if you want pussy.
>>18563362Has Fierce been reformulated since the 2010s? I remember it was an amazing scent around 2012-2013 but I haven't tried it since
>>18563368Le Male Elixir has a top tier drydown but that honey note is kinda overbearing in warmer weather (and even in colder weather honestly)On the other hand LMLP is lighter but not as sexy especially on the drydown
>>18563410I feel like it has been reformulated like 4 times since 2009.
>>18563412>LMLP is lighter but not as sexy especially on the drydownI beg to disagree. It's the smoothest, sexiest and most elegant of all the Le Males in the drydown.
>>18563311I don’t buy that dudes are wearing gourmands, that’s wildI don’t live in a big fragrance area though, so who knows. >>18563063These are hilarious, hope the scents are actually good/accurateTo answer OP question - favorite mass appeal designer fragrance is Eros Flame, but idk if it’s been reformulated, my bottle is from 2021 or something. What are anybody else’s thoughts? I don’t have niche fragrance taste or niche fragrance money, but I want to smell good. Only problem is that I unironically like stuff like Drakkar and Jovan Musk, or Cool Water in the summer, so I’ve always gotta fight my instincts to smell like an uncle lmao
>>18563500>What are anybody else’s thoughts?Versace Eros and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male DNA are the two safest in the whole fragrance universe if you want to smell good to your average normie woman. Just get the original or one of the flankers, it doesn't really matter. Dior Sauvage dna would be up there but it can be a bit "mature/adult-like" for girls/women under 20. JPG Scandal dna is in the opposite end of Sauvage with respect to age. Normie-proof between ages of 13 - 45 but then becomes a bit too sweet and juvenile to be considered normie-proof on average for women over 45.
>>18563507>Scandal, Sauvage, Le Male flankersYou forgot the SWY line. And Le Beau arguably
>>18563509Le Beau is a Le Male flanker and SWY isn't normie-proof for teens. It's definetly mass appeal though. It's the sweet-warm version of Sauvage with respect to mass-appeal and age-range.
>>18563511>SWY isn't normie-proof for teensHow so? It's an extremely sweet syrupy frag>sweet-warm version of SauvageI don't really get your nomenclature to be honest
>>18563514>How so? It's an extremely sweet syrupy fragYes, but would you agree that it smells more man than say Le Male Elixir. Does that give you an idea what I'm going for by saying that?>I don't really get your nomenclature to be honestIt has the same mass appeal but it's not a fresh, spicey fragrance.
You guys actually want a looksmaxx blackpill mass appeal fragrance that works for anything from the gym to a wedding? Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce. It's still insanely mass appealing despite having been reformulated throughout. The longevity is great and it's really just the projection that has been nerfed, but I don't mind and neither those your friends because it is now a "being discovered in your personal space bubble scent" and not an "offensive loud coping mouth breather scent". No offense to mouth breathers (you should have that checked and fixed at the doctor's office asap though, - love sincerely yours).
>>18563518I don't get that at all honestly, I always thought the SWY line especially Intensely was pretty juvenile
PDM freshies ranked1. Percival2. Galloway3. Sedley4. Greenley 5. Perseus
>>18563524Hmm, I'll have to test them again.
>>18563507For reference, I’m late 20s but immature, if that changes up the vibe recommendations at all. Sounds like I might just keep rocking the Eros Flame, desu. I love the scent, the only reason I don’t wear it daily is being a little shy about if it’s too loud/young for daily use. Definitely will check out Sauvage Elixir and the other flankers, I’ve never been a huge fan of the base model. It’s not bad, it’s just a little plain. Never tried anything from the Le Male line, although the fact that the bottle is a little French sailor is hilarious.Any specific recs from either line, or just buy some samples and try em out? I assume they’re all crowd pleasers. >>18563520Might honestly buy this lmao. I have the Azzaro Sport EDT that people say is a knockoff of Fierce, and I like it pretty well.
Not really on trend at the moment but Aqua di Gio holds up, imo
>>18563529Not him but>Le Male OG: fresh, masculine, a little dated>Le Male Le Parfum: very smooth, sexy vanillic iris, the most classy of the line>Le Male Elixir: gourmand honey tonka combo, very attractive (Absolu is even better imo)>Le Beau: similar tonka DNA but with added coconut, great for summerHaven't tried Ultra Male
>>18563529>I’m late 20sAllure Homme Sport Eau Extreme or Bleu de Chanel EdT. Don't let the memes about taste get to you, these mog all and everything niche including Aventus. Alternatively just do this >>18563520
>>18563535Not him but these supposedly more mature crow pleasers come off to me as overly businesslike, sure I'd wear them if I had a white collar job and had to appear serious while still smelling good but I like stuff like the Le Male line and Scandal precisely because I don't have that obligationThat being said BDC Parfum is an exceptional fragrance, if it could be found on discounters I'd buy it again
>>18563538>crow pleasersbased typo
>>18563538>more mature crow pleasers come off to me as overly businesslikeBleu EdT and AHS and AHSEE is the way around this dilemma. I totally get your point though. Truth be told, you're going to smell great with either of the fragrances that we've mentioned thus far.

>>18563688The only Pajeet are the ones pushing Dior Sauvage. Does anyone have that top 25 Indian reddit fragrence meme? Its literally just a screenshot of their favourite perfumes. Great way to avoid fragrences.
>>18559716Infrared EDP is underrated. Smells like big red chewing gum. Love that shit
>>18563500They're not. They're wearing oriental spicy or fougere fragrances that have hints of vanilla.>>18563560Holy shit you're retarded. Having vanilla doesn't make something a gourmand. Maybe if it smells like vanilla cake or French vanilla coffee.Otherwise Azzaro Pour Homme is a gourmand because it contains that amber note is made of vanillin and resins like benzoin.
Not gay but what are some frags that make other men go "oh yeah" like gigachad meme face. I don't give af what women like or don't like but if I can make a man think of me or my frag then I'm basically intimidating him.
>>18559713Most Indian thread in a while
I love when people suggest clones. The quality is not there. What makes niche fragrances worth it is the dry down especially the musk. It's my favorite part about wearing fragrances. I may have a sensitive nose because I'm East asian but truly after wearing something like aventus or br540 the next 12 hours are the best part to me that u just don't get from designers
>>18564024Yeah, I've bought a few clones and you can just tell something is off. I don't know how any can sing the praise of Asad, for instance. It's just.. not good. It has a FAINT resemblance, but it's just not near the quality.
>>18564043If you expect Asad to be exactly like Sauvage Elixir of course you're gonna be disappointed. But Asad is good as a spicy barbershop fragrance. It's certainly better than the current version of Drakkar Noir, and that's really all I care about.Though I think I'd pick One Man Show Emerald over either.
>>18563533>fall/winter: Elixir>spring/summer: LBLP>daily year-round: OG Le Male >dates and special occasions: LMLP>nights out: Ultra MaleNot memeing when I say the Le Male line is all you need
>>18564043Makes it worse now that every frag YouTuber is a complete shill for the stuff. Really irritating
>>18559713A girl I was dating only told me several dates in she hated basically any scent I would wear, even ones that women typically really like, Aventus, Xerjoff Naxos etc, think I eventually found one that she thought was acceptable.
What are peoples typical office/ everyday fragrances? I usually go with Prada L'Homme, Allure homme sport eau extreme, BDC. Need something else in that realm.
>>18564390I alternate between percival, imagination, and grey vetiver.
>>18564390>>18564398>Prada L'Homme, Allure homme sport eau extreme, BDC>percival, imagination, and grey vetiverGuys, you're set. You don't need anything else. That is perfect. Seriously.
I was browsing fragrances at a mall with a girl I know and she went feral for Sauvage Elixir
>>18564389That’s because the Aventus scent profile is for impressing other dudes lmao
>>18564390I’d honestly just pick one of those and rock it daily Minimizing the number of bottles is good, no matter what youtube dudes say
>>18560455>>18560462>>18560481>>18560572This is the most easily duped fragrance ever. You can buy fragrance that smells EXACTLY the same as the real thing for a fraction of the price. Perfume parlour, oil perfumery, whatever, just get a cheap dupe of this there is absolutely no piont in paying hundreds of pound for something you can get for a few quid.
>>18564390TF Oud Minerale and Beau de Jour, Nicolai New York Intense, L'Eau D'Issey PH
>>18564494>>18564410I only have Prada L'homme now, the other bottles I've used over the past few years but run out, so I need a new one. I'm just wondering what new one to get like that though.
>>18564556Lol actually split a bottle of Oud minerale with a friend years ago, use it kinda sparingly.
>>18564568I have samples from the original 2017 release and pic related which came out in 2022/23? Not the exact same imo but good enough since it was cheaper than the Private Blend version. I've heard the Signature release is mostly similar, but the bottle is so ugly so I hope they re-release it again when I run out.
>>18564575Yeah we split it in 2018/19, so original blend. Idk the cheap bottle I have kinda sucks and I find its super super oily so its just messy applying it imo.
Le Male Le Parfum is actually a wearable fragrance from JPG. I would not be offended if someone wore it in the office, especially on the drydown. Just don't spray like a lunatic with such a strong fragrance.
>>18563893I've been to india and I smelled creed aventus a few times and I was wearing an aventus clone an indian recognised it as creed aventus.
>>18564676OG Le Male has such an offputting blend of sweet lavender I'm glad it's not popular anymore
>>18564478I ended up buying it, it's a great scent

Recommendations for a 30 year old white guy, cooked hairline, broke, 6’3, blue eyes?Here’s what I have/tried:>Eros Flame - love this, would wear it almost exclusively but idk if it’s that versatile, especially in warm weather. >Drakkar Noir - performance is bad, smells pretty good in a pine-y way. >Azzaro Sport EDT - I’m told this is a clone of Fierce, its a solid inoffensive clean fresh smell. >AdG Profumo knockoff - awful longevity, love scent, nice blend of freshness with some more complexity, creaminess, etc >Nautica Voyage - had some a while ago, smells like cucumber water, but in a good way, very one-note, but it’s $15.>Stetson - oddly unisex for something named after a cowboy hat company. Cold weather only, but a nice sorta warm smell.>Jovan Musk - way less stanky than you’d think for the name. Weird combo of like, orange cream, soap, and sweat. Love it in a weird way. Probably divisive, def smells old. >Cool Water - solid hot weather vibe, retro compared to my other warm weather aqua/fresh scents. >Brut - I bought a bottle of this in like 2017 as a joke, and it was so weirdly good. Grassy, creamy, sweet but also vegetative. Every bottle or related product I’ve tried since smelled nothing like it. I’ve heard the EU version is better, but that’s like $20 and that’s silly for Brut.Didn’t like Dylan Blue, smells way too much like body wash, VpH smells good, but also too boring plain lemony, kinda the voyage problem.Trying to cut down to at most 3-5I love the retro stuff like Jovan or Cool Water, but I don’t want to smell like somebody’s uncle. Or at least it’s gotta be a sexy uncle.Heard good things about the Le Male line, a few of the other AdG flankers, Sauvage, etc. obviously will hit up the store and try samples, but I wanted to know if you all had ideas.Not gonna spend niche frag level money ever.The dream is having a legitimate signature scent that I wear exclusively, but I gotta pick that myself

>>18565940>still smell it 6 hours after spraying twice on my chestLiterally how. I can't smell it afte an hour. I'm going noseblind.
>>18565943That can happen if you spray a lot literally everyday. Also try spraying in spots further from your nose. I stopped spraying on my shirt collar and upper chest, now I apply closer to my sternum and wrists and it takes me longer to go anosmic for one scent.
this is all you need. what a beautiful fragrance
>>18565940Prob my fav currently. Only need one or two sprays cause it's powerful. Not sure if its a winter fragrance though
>>18565966Thanks, I'll try your approach.
>>18565976The tonka base makes it suitable for winter, which is interesting because many consider this to be a summer fragrance as well.
>>18565940Was able to smell this on myself in the air the other day and it smelled delicious. I get why people perceive it as fresh in the dry down as well now. Finally.
>>18565897from what you have in your collection you need to try this stuffits very fresh with that herbacious back boneonly $50, and the bottle and atomizer are better than a lot of designer brandshands down the best cheapie in my collection

>>18566298You're actually clinically retarded if you spend $500 on a fragrance.
Ex serial sampler here that's been away for a while. Are there any new releases (within the last 3 years) that are worth trying and fit the "attractive scent" profile?
>>18566330As much as I'm not a fan of JPG, Scandal Parfum was actually pleasing. It's JPG for a an adult man without leaving the DNA behind.
Chad here, I used to be an autist like you guys obsessed with smelly water until I learnt about pheromonemaxxing from this guy at the gym. Basically you wanna take a shower and then wrap a ziplock bag around your balls. Work out and collect the pheromone rich sweat and spray that on you. I got two ladies in one night that way
>>18566366>and then wrap a ziplock bag around your ballsActually funny.

>>18566581Dior Homme Parfum also got re-released and the leather and rose notes are not there anymore. Way bigger difference between that and the original DHP. Maybe that's what you're thinking of.

What's Jeremy doing these days? Just checked his tiktok it's just full of low effort trash
>>18566614his brain is friedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyvCsckhxxM
>>18566621He just gained weight and he's also obviously older than 5 years ago. People don't realise how lean he was to maintain that jaw in the first place.
>>18566624he's older but he's not 107 years old. why is there so little power in the spin?also he's still super lean yet his face is bloated https://www.tiktok.com/@jeremyfragrance/video/7522805442712571158
>>18566624lol it's not just from aging. dude legit needs professional help
>>18566624It's not about his looks, which can be a sad story of its own. It's about him genuinely degenerating and becoming very obviously confused and disorientated. Just look at the youtube video anon posted, the man is clearly disjointed and incoherent.
>>18566628Nah, he's kinda fat (in my BDD view). He is posing under excellent light. There is one of him dancing on the side-walk next to the beach and you can see that he carries some puppy fat.
>>18566628>>18566635>>18566638>>18566640He looks exactly like a man would look in his mid-thirties.
>>18566643i'm not denying that he looks age-appropriatei am wondering why he cannot perform a full spin in less than 10 seconds

>>18563954>They're wearing oriental spicy or fougere fragrances >Having vanilla doesn't make something a gourmandGourmand isn't a proper family like the orientals afaik, it's more like a descriptor you tack on, therefore Spicebomb Extreme is both an oriental spicy and a gourmand to a strong degree. Practically the majority of post-2000s popular designer scents with sweet-forward notes are gourmand eg most JPGs, Muglers, SWY line, 1 millions, noir extreme like in OP.
After all the hype I finally sampled this and, wow, it smells like smushing your nose against some creamy floral soap or a cinnamon beeswax candle. Very basic, I don't get it
>>18567638>that time of the day>that postFigures that some Vietnamese tryhard from Melbourne or Vancouver isn't able to understand Franco-British understatement.
>>18567642>seething because he doesn't have unlimited access to pacific rock moss
>>18567638PdM is a new money house cosplaying as an old money house, like Creed's schtick
>>18567687I have yet to find a frag of theirs that came close to justifying the hype. Still it's not bad just very basic
>>18567737I like Herod and Carlisle myself and probably Oajan, but none of them are paying anywhere near full price for. Thankfully they're still common at discounters everywhere.
>>18567638You should try imagination kek
Almost everything from Initio and PdM smells like cheap candles and soap.
>>18560809Have you noticed any emotional blunting from topical usage? Also, what sort of reactions to it do you generally get from people?
I work in a world class hotel, and my position has me everywhere. Anyways, can i get a recommendation? Currently I use Polo Blue by RL and i enjoy it, issue for me is it wears off quickly. Sometimes i dont have time to reapply it.
>>18568434What's your budget?
>>18568444Not really into fragrance so im not sure how high this gets. Probably like $100?
>>18568449Try Prada L'Homme. But really, if you don't know much about fragrances it's better to try different scents yourself at Sephora or a department store like Saks or Nordstrom and then buying off of discounters like Fragrancenet, FragranceX, Fragrancebuy, etc. Especially since you'll be wearing it to work
>>18568434Dior Homme EDT/2020 is the classiest work-safe fragrance you can get
>>18568799>Dior Homme EDT/2020i want you to know i bought this only cause you posted kira so this must be his scent
>>18568434>>18568449Versace Pour Homme (or Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme if you can afford it). No guest will ever be offended and a whole lot will find you pleasant smelling and those are 4 season fragrances, any occasion (gym, wedding, date, business, uni, hangout, you name it).
>>18568925The only reason why i dont wanna buy allure homme is cause its not on amazon for quick delivery. why is this one an alternative to the versace pour homme?
>>18568934I went for mass appeal non-offensive fragrances that literally works for everything, anytime. A lot of people say that they share a similar dna and I've read people claim a 90% similarity but I strongly disagree with that notion. They're both good and you won't go wrong with either. Both are compliment-getters.
>>18568939Which would you say lasts for much longer?
>>18568940Hmm, they perform pretty similar. I struggle to smell them off of myself after 6 hours but others can smell it on me after that, so I suspect noseblindness to base notes. I suspect that they'll last you a whole work day. They perform better on warm skin and your body temperature will rise in the evening which a lot of niche incels and other incels on here don't even think of with respect to how a fragrance is designed and then these subhumans will accuse you of being brown or low iq or something of the sort lmao. Point being that they'll perform even at the end of the day although mid-day performance might suggest otherwise. Also, nichecels belong to the rope - I can't detest them enough. Pretentious subhumans pretending to know what they're doing.
>>18568941Well i could get the versace 3.4 fl Oz for $50 and tomorrow, cant get the allure homme for another week. No brainer for me i think. Where do you spray with this one? I always spray behind the ear, one on my chest and one in my suit.
>>18568943I only use 2-4 sprays of any given fragrance because it's honestly more than enough. These only influencers who scam nichecels will tell you to spray 12 times and even more, it's ridiculous. They're surrounded by fragrance, fragrance bottles, residue, semen, they're by default somewhat noseblind to any given fragrance in that environment. You'll be choking people out with more than 5 sprays and get "compliments" masked as clues for you to spray less. They also want you to use up the bottle faster so that they can make more money and it's really a cynical business that only low iq jeb nichecels will fall for. I prefer to spray on collar bone and behind ears. Inside elbows is also great if you're wearing short sleeve attire, it creates this degree/angle when just naturally bending your arms while existing that projects whiffs in a beautiful way to the surroundings.
>>18568946thanks man. btw i went with allure homme sport extreme cause i found out i could get it overnight from chanels website
>>18568951Compliment beast. Remember, the magic is in the sillage in the air and not up close. It smells heavenly on people in the gym with warm skin while they pass by. You should also check out Allure Homme Edition Blanche. The opening is strong citrus but the dry down is top 3 of all time. Amazing fragrance as well.
Wear this if you date black women. Sensual cocoa butter
>>18567638I love this one but I'm worried it's too strong. If they made this in an EDT I would buy it immediately. Idk maybe I should just do one spray under my shirt? Why is it impossible to find a good vanilla frag? I like by the fireplace, but it's too smoky and gets annoying. Tobacco Vanille also too smoky. Stronger with you is ok, but it smells kind of cheap and there's something slightly off-putting about it. Grand Soir is objectively great, but it's too sophisticated/mature for me. Is vanilla diorama my last hope?
>>18570486Un Bois VanilleEau DuelleEau des Baux
Wear Platinum Egoiste if you date white women. Competent smelling fougere.
>>18570506Thanks, will look into these!
What frag family direction should I be looking into if I’m trying to appeal to quirked up gym chicks?>inb4 roids and a motorcycle
>>18570546Kouros
>>18570561Whenever people recommend this, I just assume they’re trying to mess with me, it’s such a meme on the fashion internet But I actually kinda see it in this caseReally should get a sample at some point, the notes pyramid on fragrantica looks legitimately good - always a good sign when there’s a literal picture of an animal lmaoClosest thing I’ve tried irl is Jovan Musk, which I legit enjoy, but idk if it’s a crowd-pleaser, or even appealing to anyone but me and old ladies lmao
>>18570582Do not fall for /frag/ memes, this thread is not about old man scents but about frags that actually smell good, and kouros is not one of them
This is the best freshie I have ever smelled. All the reviews for it say it's overpriced and you can get something just as good for cheaper, but nobody ever says specifically what. What can you get thats just as good as greenly but cheaper?
>>18571212Smell like homo-ass. Bruno Banani Only for Men is similar and better.
I've made Sauvage Elixir my signature scent. I don't need anything else. Whoever said this isn't good for warm weather is wrong. Performance is off the charts and everyone loves it and finds it masculine and attractive. Perfect scent
>>18571034Don’t worry lmao, I wasn’t gonna run off and blind buy a bottle. I do want to try it, just because I read it was Burt Reynolds’ signature scent and I like Smokey and the Bandit, but that’s more of a being silly and buying an $8 decant type thing. It’s funny, the more you prioritize just smelling good, the less of a “hobby” this is. Idk if I need anything beyond eros flame and [fresh scent of choice] as much as I enjoy stuff like Jovan Musk or Drakkar.
I had a sample of "Le Male Terrible" I liked it and thought it was worth buying a perfume like this, no matter how expensive it was. It's true that I noticed how long the perfume lasted, and it even changed as it dried. Then I realized it's no longer available; it's discontinued and no longer sold. I normally wear cologne every day. Which fragrance would be most similar to this one right now? I'm thinking of buying a bottle of Le Male Eau de Toilette, which I think is what you call the original here.
>>18568946>it creates this degree/angle when just naturally bending your arms while existing that projects whiffs in a beautiful way to the surroundings.I wear a suit for work so cant do that, how about on both my wrists instead? 2 on each wrist and behind both ears is 4 sprays
>>18571225>cheap old man /frag/slopget the fuck out hobbyist, this thread is about smelling good and attractive

Office slaves, do you spray once in the morning? Or even once more before going home?

>>18572955>arm, armdo you wear a blazer?
>>18559713>fragrance threadDoes this also apply to deodorants? Need some recs if so
>>18573609Just get any neutral or lightly-scented roll-on deodorant like Vichy or Mitchum. You're not gonna find anything too good with deodorants no matter how you slice it
>>18571669you could try Luna Rossa Sport by Prada, is sort of same vibes as Le Male with added spice, which sounds like what Le Male Terrible is from reading it. Alternatively try Le Male flankers that still have lavender e.g. Ultramale if you haven't already
>>18573749>Luna Rossa SportI will ask for it.
>>18564556Love Beau de Jour. Just finished my 50ml bottle recently and got a 100ml one since I’m sure it’ll keep being my go-to. It’s also the one fragrance that has gotten me the most compliments, PdM Pegasus being second, and Dior Fahrenheit oddly third.
>>18571212Aether Extrait by French Avenue PDM is such an overpriced ripoff fucking frag house fuck them.
>>18568916Did you end up liking that anon?
>>18577219Yeah i did actually. Im literally him
>>18570508boring, only Egoiste
>>18577386Glad to hear. Stay fancy.
Wear Santal 33 if you want women to accuse you of non-consenting sex and be blackmailed by some gay guys.
>>18571212Its a Beautiful fragrance, very realistic crushed green apple off the top, not sure I like the price though and there is a dupe called Aether Extrait by French Avenue (more synthetic). But if moneys not an object, it Slaps. So does Sedley btw which doesnt have a good dupe.
>I am presently doused in Stetson. >I am a zoomer. >What will the fairer-sex do?
>>18578080Need feedback on this as well. I like it, but it’s definitely retro. Same for Jovan>>18577441Dill Pickle mode
>>18577441Santal 33 is so incredible -- but once these two sort-of metrosexual/performative rich boys walked past me smelling of it and I was instinctively so contemptuous of them. Why am I like this?>>18578080I wish Stetson's chypre opening stayed a little longer. This is easily the most budget chypre I know of. -- And it's originally by the house of Coty, inverters of the Chypre. Amazing.What I like about Stetson is that it is discernably comprised of only 3 smells at most. Chypre, shave soap, and toasted marshmallow. It's addictive.
>>18578188>rich boysObvious you was just well jealous, babe. Or you realised they bought and slapped on a 200 quid fragrance without a fraction of the thinking you put into it>>18578080>>1857816913 years ago I wore Pino Silvestre to HS for a few days until I heard a girl ask out loud "Who smells of old people?"

>>18579514You don't even need those. 1 scent from a good designer suffices.
>>18579967What’s your preference?
>>18579974I like Dior/Chanel, mostly from the 90s-00s. Among newer bottles, I'd get Allure Homme Sport (EE or EB) or Dior Homme Sport as a one-and-done.
>>18579998>>18579974to add to anon cause i agree with allure homme sport as an everyday (its really nice for that) tom ford noir extreme or tom ford noir extreme parfum are also really good options. the latter is subjectively better
I have been given a lot of compliments wearing this.
>>18579998Homme Sport over Sauvage? I like Sauvage quite a bit, but it’s definitely overplayedGotta be honest, I’m not that into this as a hobby, I just wanna smell good. There’s a part of me that wants to wear some old musky boomer shit, just because it’s funny, but I’d rather come off normal

So you guys are dunking on the /frag/ thread for recommending old man fragrances but are instead talking about and recommending frags for 14 year olds and "androgynous" frags for emo skinny boys? You can't be fucking serious
