SOTD Al-Rehab Silver
I want to smell like an abbatoir built from logs and which is burning; with a metallic accord; any suggestions?
Thoughts?

>>18573937It is Beaufort like >>18573956 sugguested but not R&R, it's Tonnerre.

>>18573956>>18573962Yes please. Will buy Tonnerre. Thanks.
Is Grand Soir that polarizing? I see people sing its praises and then in another line complain about it smelling "old".
I hate oudIt overpowers everything else in a fragrance and smells like burning tires

>>18574003I might get the parfum version as my first AdG rather than the original edt, not sure though
Can people actually tell the difference between colognes if they just sit beside you or go past you?
>>18574110Tonnerre is an absolutely amazing fragrance but it can be pretty far out there, it would also feel absolutely vile and disgusting if you can't stomach harsh smoke. Due to circumstances, I ended up with two bottles of it, which is pretty unnecessary considering it's the kind of frag I'd wear only once in a blue moon. Also, fuck it, SOTD R&R
>>18574161most of them can't
imagine samefagging to shill beauslop and thinking people won't notice

>>18574161Sometimes a foid would be walking 20 feet away, and I would get a whiff of her god awful EDP.But then again, I can also smell it if someone nearby, like few buildings down, make one of them artificial tomato soups from a package. Am I a dog?
>>18573800I’m a fan of a couple Zoologist frags, and Bee is their most popular, but to me it’s the most synthetic, fake, unnatural sweet smell I’ve encountered. The same way artificial sweeteners are “sweet” but taste terrible.

sotd amyris hommegod i love mfk
Tempted to buy Orpheon special holiday edition because its a pretty reasonable price and is pretty>>18574218How is it compared to the EdT? I love the former but lasts about 2 hours on me...
Well, what do i think of these?
hi /frag/,give me some winter frags.regards,anon

>>18574260ayo hol up
>>18574110Everything in >>18574162 is pretty much spot on. Great frag, either love it or hate it depending on how you feel about smoke, almost no circumstances that call for it. Personally the thing that fascinates me the most is there’s a very light but unmistakably distinct aquatic top note to it that they list as “sea spray”. I’ll be wearing it to work this Friday on Halloween. That, and the occasional Friday the 13th are the only occasions I break it out.
>>18574245There is only one Angel's share. Anyone who says otherwise is a poorfag
i blind bought montblanc legend spirit cos cheap and heard good things but it literally smells exactly like deodorant leloh well
>>18574161As >>18574168 said, even with the most acoustic guitars it’s a maybe. People will claim up and down that they can smell stuff on the street or tell when someone is wearing this or that, but it’s bullshit. They convince themselves they know what it is and then just speak confidently on a Taiwanese scuba diving forum that they know for sure what it is they smelled. >and then when you call them on their bullshit they defend themselves by calling you a noselet
>>18574170>Letting go of this gay shit hobbyLists more than a single fragrance>taken the chadpillAsks for other peoples validationAnon. You downsized but nothing has changed.
Why does honey often times smell like ass in fragrances, like in boss no 1 and Kouros. If i rub myself in honey i dont smell like piss and ass.
Most masculine gourmand?
>>18574223sorry i meant to post the edt version, but i don't have that problem - i did one spray of the edt on my neck at 1 pm and it's 7 pm and i still smell it>orpheonget it, i love orpheon it's a powdery sophisticated clean frag, shame you're too late for the limited edition blue bottle, that one was peak
>>18574300They tend to pair it with animalic notes. Purely speculation on my part, but I think it’s a chicken or the egg type deal, where to get the ‘honey’ scent they either need other, animalic type materials to make the honey accord, or whatever they use that smells like honey also has animalic facets.
>>18574223>>18574304>Diptyque tranniesYou know their entire catalogue leans feminine, right? Except for Tempo. Only women and fags wear Diptyque. Except for Tempo.
Went to a huge perfumery today and smelled alot, but was disappointed:>new Prada-ParadigmeStarts like Y-YSL = ambroxan-grapefruit, yeah, fuck off.>Habit Rouge edtLiterally like 4711, but dusty patchouli. Smelled too "indian".>Guerlain HeritageSmelled like an indian doctor, sterile but with heavy, earthy orientalic spices.>Some of the new Hugo Boss scentsAll similar, nothing special.>Kenzo - L'Eau Pure Nice 90s floral aquatic, but redundant.>almost disappointed of the usual slop in the shop>smelled some Tom Ford, some Calvin Klein, here and there Prada>literally slop after went through many niche and designerThe scents that make me happy nowadays are drugstore, cheap scents, something like Waidmanns-heil edt oder my SOTD Bruno Banani Energy(Ice candy with musky tonkabean in the drydown). Love it.
>>18574318Same for me, tried xerjoff PDM and Tom ford, out of them the tom ford lineup was the Best imo, but all of them just arent worth the price, was really dissapointed. Now i often buy obscure not expensive stuff no one really cares or knows about.

Maybe it's old news now, but Eau des Baux got renamed and shrinkflated, sad to say. It's now a 50 ml bottle and called Cèdre Encens. I'm sure some overpaid consultants helped them reach this decision.
what are some white-coded frags?
>>185743524711Thats it
ok i get it now. perfume should not come in dabber form. i first tried this as a dab and literally all i got was make up. i was disappointed. now got a spray decant and its totally different. its beautiful it really is
>>18574359It pales in comparison to the OG Dior Homme
>>18574362this?
>>18574359im actually kind of emotional right now. its such a nostalgic scent, i dont know where i smelled it but its hitting me hard
>>18574366no offense but you sound very homosexual
>>18574356isnt that sold at gas stations in europe?
>>18574370none taken :|
>>18574371Yes>>18574364Yes (as long as thats the 2005 formula)
>>18574349News to me, thanks for the heads up. Also shitty bottle from the look of it. I love that the old was practically a hip flask and took up so little space. Oh well, I don’t reach for it that often desu, even though I do like the general profile. I’ll have to cherish it a little more.
>>18573915Post discontinued frags that need a re-release
Eau des baux is so good bros. Smells almost like the holy ketoreth incense.
>>18574302JOOP! for men and you’re still a fag
>got a decant of GOTSPretty good. Fresh pear, milky creamy musky fresh out of the hotel shower scent. A hint of something fecal. Somehow airy for being so embodied
>>18574366nigga its only smellz lmao chill tf out
>>18574420There is, 100%, nothing fecal in this fragrance my dude. Maybe wipe better next time?>good taste otherwise
>>18574399>Le Feu d'Issey>Mugler Cologne>JPG Fleur du Mâle
>>18574439im sorry. im just so lonely. i dont have any friends and never had a gf
>>18574316I'm non-binary so I dont care :)
>>18574316You know NO ONE cares whether the perfume you wear "leans feminine" or whatever? I've tried Diptyque stuff twice with my gf and she would give 0 shits if I bought and wore something off there.
I feel like it's inevitable that this blows up and stops being $40 so I'm glad to have it before it's a meme
>>18573915SOTD pic related
>>18573915Why does this keep happening to me. I just bought the sandalwood perfume like two weeks ago I haven't bought a fragrance in 20 years. Not sure I like the smell.
>>18574173>autistic hobbyist seething that it's not whatever boomerslop that the lifelong bullying victims, incels, and brown people of /frag/ are memeing this monthpredictable
>>18574468I care.
>>18574316>falling for marketing schemestry lurking some more until you lean straight, newfag
I will continue to wear Coach Platinum
>>18574500because you're a tranny?
>>18574441>mugler cologneNever smelled it, but it's been on my radar for a long time.Has anyone smelled pic related?If so, how close is it to the original?Im thinking about buying, but if its bad, id rather try to get a vintage bottle.
>>18574517Mugler Cologne is called Mugler Cologne again. Come Together was identical to the original since they only changed the name when they added new products to the Cologne line.

The chatroom has been rather quiet these past few weeks, so I’d like to propose a fun game to liven things up once again. Give me an idea for a fragrance, it can be something absurd, or relatively simple, yet still within the bounds of pleasantness. I’ll create a fragrance according to the most intriguing suggestion and maybe share the formula here for any who wish to recreate it. I’ll do it when I have some free time at the lab. If the result is good enough I might suggest it to one of our clients
>>18574576A female friend of mine said she'd like something that smells like Cadbury Mini Eggs. I guess that would be milk chocolate and a subtle powdery but sweet vanilla?
>>18574576Honestly, what can be made that doesn’t already exist?You can do iterations on tropes or themes, but it’s all been done. Honestly the first thing that came to my mind was Creme Brulee, but if you search any of the fragrance boards you’ll see like 7-8 exist already (if not more).
>>18574576Spearmint, Cacao, and Ambroxan
SOTD interlude black iris
>>18574636why is kali wearing colored contacts lmfao
>>18574567Pic related is who actually owns Volutes. If you look at the majority of what you mentioned your "unisex" is mainly women, the "masculine" are closer to unisex. Your faggy nose contradicts the people who actually own and wear these scents.
>>18573915
>>18574732i havent smelled any of these
>>18574738try Jubilation Man and Reflection Man when you get the chance
SOTD: Club de Nuit SillageThe weather is hot today. Is this the best Silver Mountain Water clone? No. Al-Rehab Silver performs better.
>>18574218Do you like BR540 anon?
>the weather is hot today>don't have enough money>can't go outside to check out a perfume shop near my neighbourhood
>>18574218I put Grand Soir and Psychedelique along with some other bottles in storage a few years ago when I started working from home and now I can't find them. They're here somewhere...t. hoarder
>>18574769Does grand soir has sandalwood in it? Because mine has a bit of that milky wood (not pickle-y) sandalwood drydown but I can't see it on fragrantica notes and on the main website as well.
What are some good Pacific Chill and Imagination clones? I don't mind Arab clones.
>>18574798No, I don’t pick up any sandalwood from my bottle at all
>>18574349>Maybe it's old news now, but Eau des Baux got renamed and shrinkflated, sad to say. It's now a 50 ml bottle and called Cèdre Encenswhat?eau de bavx got reduced from 100ml to 75ml a few years ago and l'occitane always had like 2 or 3 other masculine fragsbut I looked on their french website and found picrel?what are they playing at here
>>18574507isn't that like a sausage analogue in a blue bottle?
>>18574576dzing! + timbuktu
>>18574161Yes, up to a point.Smell is the sensory modality that elicits memories most strongly, so if someone smells a frag they're accustomed to they'll recognize it easily enough, be it because it's a characteristic smell like BR540 or Ganymede, or because it used to be their bff/partner's signature scent like Sauvage or Coco Mademoiselle.Practicing (with frags, wine, tea, ...) makes it much easier, but telling two similar frags apart can be difficult for a variety of reasons, so it's unlikely that even a frag enthusiast will be able to tell two similar frags apart when smelling them on someone if they're similar, like TdH edt and parfum, or BR540 and one of its many clones.The less experienced and """trained""" someone's nose is the less they'll be able to tell similar frags apart, so every blue ambroxan-base frag will effectively smell the same to them, or, even more, most frags will smell like talcum powder, which is the reason why some people replied "no" to your post.
