Got samples coming :partying_face:

  1. Boadecia the Victorious’ ‘Violet Sapphire’ (excited to try this one, thought I heard it leans a lil feminine, but unisex :grin:)
  2. Clive Christian’s ‘Crab Apple Blosson’ (Lmao, super excited to try this one too :sweat_smile:)
  3. Killian’s ‘Single Malt’
  4. Killian’s ‘Black Phantom’ (Yeah, yeah, so I am late to the party. So sue me :smile:)

-I remember my ex used to wear ‘Delina’ from Parfum’s De Marley, and thought they say it’s a fragrance marketed to ‘women’, I used to love the smell and would spray it on myself lol. And I would get soo many compliments. I even asked some females of what they thought of it, not one said “Oh, it’s feminine.” Or “Oh, it’s girly.” I just remebered comments like, “Ohhh you smell sooo good.” “What are you wearing??” “Wow, you smell very nice.” lol Like different scents mix wit different chemistries, so even if it’s marketed towards ‘women’ (It’s a scheme really, wear what you want!) , men can pull off(and vice versa) using ‘women’s’ fragrance too, without smellin like a girl. I think they marketed Delina as a ‘women’s scent’ just cuz of the rose note. But if it’s usually too sweet for me, I will usually pass :sweat_smile:

Another example is, D&G ‘Light Blue’. The homme version (Male) smells so generic, plain and like a typical blue frag. But the Femme version (Women) smells waaay better, and more beautiful. And it is not feminine at all, but more 'unisex’ish. I thought I was the only straight dude that used this, but there were alot of other’s that do it too lol.

Lmao
 Someone even sent me this pic. I had no idea Snoop wore “Delina” too lol. (He must be on top of his frag game) It smells really good. ‘Atomic Rose’ is lovely too.

All my samples came in today! :partying_face:

-Killian - Angel Share :white_check_mark:
-Bond No. 9 - Andy Warhol
-Clive Christian - Crab Apple Blossom
-BDK - Rouge Smoking
-Killian - Single Malt
-Boadecia the Victorious - Violet Sapphire :white_check_mark:
-Killian - Black Phantom

Haven’t tried any of them yet, but I did spray Killian’s Angel Share and shit man
 Now I know why people go crazy over this scent :laughing: Might have to get a whole bottle, or at lease wait cuz Winter bout to be over (Can’t wear this in the Summer) It’s like a boozy cinnamon apple pie smellin scent. Very Divine. Single Malt also smells lovely, but for some reason reminds me of Dua’s Blackberry Brandy, which is another one of my favorites for Winter and Fall. The others are lovely as well, but will have to use them first to get a good feel of them

Okay, man man MAN! I sprayed Killian’s ‘Angel Share’ on me today and the cognac note in this fragrance is soo beautiful. (Nothing like the cognac in Roja Parfum’s “Creation-E” :face_with_hand_over_mouth: :laughing: ) Smells heavenly and perfectly blended wit the cinnamon, sandalwood, and vanilla. Creating a beautiful sweet, creamy and kinda spicy scent. Very, very sexy. Imo, perfectly unisex. Great performance (Big scent bubble, great sillage, and longevity is a beast lol) and best suited for fall/winter weather, and nighttime preferably. (But would defintely rock it in the daytime if sun is not too bright, then it would be cloying) I would say this is a formal scent, and suited better for special occasions, but man! I love this smell so much and prolly would rock it at other times too lol :+1: :+1: 10 out of 10

I am a male stripper and circus performer as side gig :laughing: Hahaha Bro, but I accidentally put the laughing face before, when it shoulda came after this statement

Bro, I better not pay no got darn $400 plus for no fragrance :laughing:. Not even wit a gun to my head man lmao
 I don’t care if I was a millionaire
 I’d rather give the money to charity. :100: I usually just like to get samples bro, to see if I like the DNA. Use it up til it’s all gone. Then I do some researchin, and find a clone that is better than the original. Good quality wit good peformance. Dua, and Alexandria makes awesome and very accurate clones. Most of them, side-by-side, you would not be able to tell the difference. @Maoshan_Wanderer will tell ya. And I stay getting compliments wit em cuz they be so strong and of high quality. But if they are cheap enough, and I love the dna, take “Valentino Uomo BIR Coral Fantasy” or ‘YSL Myself’, I will buy the original. But man, I be so picky lol
 It’s rare I find a 10/10 fragrance. Yeah! Black Phantom smells lovely bro. I haven’t given it a full wear, but from the atomizer it smells like amazing Boozy Chocolatey scent.

Wore the sample for ‘Violet Sapphire’ today from Boadicea the Victorious, and man! What a beautiful floral scent. It seems very similar to Xerjoff’s ‘Erba Pura’, but with a niche twist with the smell of oud as well. This oud is a very nice, smooth and beautiful oud, not animalic like some of the other oud fragrances out there.The projection is beastly, and so is the sillage and longevity. It’s not linear/2d like Erba Pura though. It opens wit a rasberry and other fruity smells (Says “Passionfruit”, but I don’t know what Passionfruit smells like from memory lol) mixed wit florals. Then dries down with florals, and a lil oud, to my nose.

This is marketed towards women I think, but I find it very unisex. Actually, I would say it’s 65/45 % feminine/masculine leaning, but today others said they didn’t agree wit me. Two girls kept sayin I smelt soooo good lol, and like kept sayin that mixed wit other compliments too bout my looks. lol (I founded out they’re spiritual, into meditation and energy work and prolly will go shroomin wit them while bar hoppin this Sat lol) They said it doesn’t smell feminine not even in the slightest. And this girl, Krystal said if she smelt it on me at the bar, she would approach me lol. Anyways, I love this scent. Smells great. Great contender for the “God of Fire” from Stephane Humbert Lucas 777 as well, which I have a version of from Dua.

I love Boadicea The Victorious’ ‘Violet Sapphire’ so much, that I had bought Dua’s inspiration of it. Was costly kinda, but still cheap af considering the OG is waaay more expensive. Well, I actually found a bottle for cheap on Mercari. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :+1: Dua has a high oil concentration as well. This girl told me that it’s a very accurate clone, so can’t wait to try it!! I’m also had went out this morning, sprayed it 3 times from the tiny atomizer, and hours later I could still get solid whiffs of it. I love it! Bout to go out again and it’s still kickin like Jet Li

I recently asked someone about his perfume. When I’m really curious, I don’t hesitate to ask. Ombre Nomade Louis Vuitton
 the man was a walking forest. It had a spread that I will never forget. I immediately looked at the price and it was $400. But it was a truly wonderful winter scent. When I reach financial freedom, I will definitely use this

I have smelt this DNA, and it’s a beautiful and unique scent. The oud in it is strong, and of high quality. The rasberry is blended very nice as well. It leans masculine. But the only thing is I don’t find this fragrance versatile at all, and more suited for formal events, special occasions, and cooler weather.

@anon59134499 But if ya already splurged on Imagination, why not get his cousin too? :smile:

I went to an amazing shop in the H (He said it’s the only one in Houston with BDK and other niche brands) and got to try out soo many awesome niche frags. :heart: :pray: :partying_face: :heart_eyes: The Mind Games Chess Piece set were my favorite, but so many were good lol. The guy was so nice (I think he was gay though lol) cuz he let me spray all that I wanted. I was in Heaven. No tester strips unfortunately, so I didn’t get to try them all. I also got some scents mixed up, which sucked. I loved Gambit, En Prise and Double Attack from Mindgames. There was another one as well but I got confused cuz was runnin outta spots on my body :smile: If ya’ll ever in the "H’', hit up “Kuhl Linscomb”. Although I was surprised as there were no Bodicea the Victorious frags there



I want almost all of the Mind Game ones. Some smelt meh though lol

Nasomotto’s ‘Pardon’ and ‘Black Afgano’ were just ‘okay’ to me lol

I enjoy reading your thread
@This_Boy_Here .

I always found it interesting how scent can smell so different on different people.
When I worked my former co-worker of many years and casual friend Gerri (female) used to wear different scents to work. If I liked the scent I would ask its name. (Also if I couldnt stand the scent, I would ask its name too, lol I’m looking at u Dior’s “Poison” or was it YSL’s “Opium”) Well one time based on how she smelled plus someone else I knew who also wore it I purchased Lancome “Tresor” in a store. Unfortunately, on me it didnt smell the same. Maybe its becasue I have oily skin and sweat a lot, I disliked it, too “stinky” on me, lol. I learned my lesson.

The strongest scent I ever purchased and loved was called “Cinnabar” by Estee Lauder. It was a late fall/winter and evening/nighttime (get) dressed up scent. I still have 3 drops of the perfume left in a small glass bottle. It was considered a spicy oriental fragrance. Apparently they bought it back and people who had the original say its NOT the same.
Others I have loved besides “Cinnabar”:

“Norell”- launched in 1968 - “The first fragrance by an American designer” (Of course thats not why I bought it) I bought my bottle in the 1980’s. Apparently they bought it back CHANGED in 2015. Found this on a search: Norell New York Perfume Review
I still have some of the original left.

Ralph Lauren’s original “Lauren” introduced in 1978 -alas my large bottle gone years ago and its no longer made.

Now since I’m older I mostly wear lighter scents like
Elizabeth Arden’s original “Green Tea” -its a shame it doesnt last longer when u apply it
Elizabeth Arden’s original “Sunflowers” -ditto
Bright, cheery and energizing.

And it all started for me with
Loves Lemon scent from 1969 and they also made a “Rain” scent that I had in gel form.

My mom used to wear for occasions Elizabeth Arden’s “Blue Grass”, but her favorite for daily use was “Jean Nate” after bath splash, which we would take turns buying for her in the 32 oz. sized refill bottle for Christmas. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

But the best scent my mom had, was just her normal scent. She was the freshest smelling person I ever hugged, IDk how she did it. :heartbeat: I think it was just her goodness coming out of her pores (plus she barely sweat, lol).

I’m glad you enjoy reading this thread @SilverZuzu. :slightly_smiling_face: Thanks for sharin haha. You wanna know what’s funny? There’s a random bottle of Lancome ‘Tresor’ in the restroom where I stay at. I think my aunt maybe left it over here when she visited some time ago, cuz I have no idea why it’s in one of the cabinets. I hardly talk to her much anymore, but I keep forgettin to ask her. I am smellin it now and it’s not bad, but I am not too crazy bout this scent. :smile: Yeah, that’s entirely true. Frags smell different on different people. Due to how they transform and mix with our natural body chemistry, pheromones and etc.

This part had me dead :laughing:

I loved how you described the fragrances you own as well. I have never smelt any of them though, besides Lancome “Tresor”. lol Who is “Green Tea” made by? If you like bright Tea scents, “Nishane’s Wulong Cha” is a wonderful tea scent. It does smell very similar to Xerjoff’s Renaissance, prolly why I love it :smile: I love Bright freshies. They’re the ones that usually garner me the most unsolicited compliments, but I love the ones wit a HUGE as scent trail that I can smell as I walk. lol I LOVE IT

I wish I knew what the others smelled like from the names you had mentioned. I also think I will take a break for the time being from fragrances. I realize, it’s really addictin, and costly lol. Plus I am already loaded to the gills and haven’t even worn all the ones that I have. :smile: I am like Beavis after he’s had too many cups of coffee and wants more and more TP
 (I love Beavis and Butt-head) :smile: And tbh, no matter how hard I try, I will never be able to have them all. It’s like Pokeman cards. It will never happen. I just wish I had some kinda radar that could weave out the shitty ones and keep the good ones :smile: Especially wit all these Youtube channels hypin frags up and then when I smell them I am like “Booo!” lol Sometimes I agree wit them though, but several times I was not impressed. “Chanel’s Allure Homme Sport” was supposed to be this almighty sexy scent. So many women, men, even people who have smelt it on me praise it as being so great but to me it smells bland and 2d, and linear. Somethin maybe even an air freshener can smell like. Some frags can be linear and still be great. Just because of how wonderful the DNA is. CAHS is not one of them. But I dunno, I have not worn it in awhile so maybe it’s macerated and now it smells better
 Ima try it out this week. You know, many fragrances morph into somethin even more beautiful during maceration. Some remain meh. lol

I have never smelt “Lauren” form Ralph Lauren, but I did have one I wore in the 8th grade I think. It was a very sexy and versatile Freshie. Very addictive smell. It was called “Romance Silver” from the Romance line of Ralph Lauren.

I forgot I never posted it, but that’s very un “Goodboy” of you :laughing: (Sorry for my bad joke) But I busted out laughin when I thought that when you had posted it. My older cuz was a bad influence on me as a kid. Bro, as a kid I used to 5-finger discount everything. I remember stealin toys from KB Toy stores. Predator, Baseball cards, Marvel cards, X-men, Aliens, games and etc. Shit you name it, I stoled it :laughing:.
