Frag Lovers and Scent heads! (Cologne and perfumes) đŸ„°

Lol
 well, ‘stealing’ was honestly prolly the least naughtiest thing I did as a kid lol. But yeah, I caused my mom as much stress as she did me haha. Also bro, I tried Kilian’s, ‘Black Phantom’ on skin and wow! I love it better than Killian’s, “Angel Share” I think. It’s my first ever gourmand I ever worn
Usually I’m not into gourmands. Ima try and get around reviewin it later. But it smells soo amazing! :smile:

A really popular fragrance, but been enjoying jpg le male le perfum recently in the colder weather

An interesting detail I noticed about scents (or maybe something everyone knows but I just discovered):crazy_face: is that advertisements for scents with different emotional effects evoke exactly the same feeling. In other words, the emotional effect of the scent on the brain is the same as the emotional impact of the commercial. I am very curious about the people who can reflect the feeling reflected by the scents to those advertisements, really good job

Don’t judge me @Xavi , but I still needa to get my nose on it. :smile: Last couple of years my mind has been just on gettin my nose on mainly unknown niche scents amongst the frag com(Not to mention I was incarcerated for 15 years lol), so i overlooked alot of the one’s that are considered great and more hyped. That is why I am only gettin round to “Angel Share” and “Black Phantom” now


Somethin to think bout bro is
 Yeah, it’s popular to people who actually are into ‘fragrances’ and who actually wear them them consistently. But how much of the general population, actually uses fragrances like we do? lol 99% of the time, when I go out, I do not smell anything on anyone. And that’s including bars and clubs
 Would be nice if more people wore stuff, but they don’t. :man_shrugging:

*I got a decant of ‘Summer Hammer’ from Lorenzo Pazzaglia on the way. I been wantin to try out this new Niche house so bad

It’s a nice fragrance but it’s one of those fragrances that smells quite artificial so I now spray it as far from my nose as I can lol

True, not many people are informed on fragrances and don’t really distinguish when to wear what.

I think I might order some samples of a few i’d want to test out like Initio side effect

I think that’s a good way to imagine it, for fragrances I noticed they like to advertise the scent like some story so that scent makes you think of a certain scenario

Btw have you tried chanel allure homme sport eau extreme?
Many people mentioned it’s got problems with performance but with this French perfumery I think it’s quite normal for the fragrance to not last as long

Can I ask you a question? Have you ever gotten that feeling from that smell ?

Never smelt so can’t say but I really like fresh fragrances and this one seems to be one of those which are up there in terms of getting compliments.

Yeah, or what kind person who would wear the scent. Or what occasion or season.

I know some people have have like a bottle but don’t even use them lol. Tbh, I think most people either just don’t care bout how they smell, or just aren’t into smells all that much.

I heard of lots of positive things bout this scent bro, but for some reason I just felt like it’ll be another underwhelmin letdown for ya boy :smile: I dunno though
 Lately I been having really good luck. I LOVE ‘Violet Sapphire’ DNA from Boadicea The Victorious, and Angel share and Black Phantom were also very lovely to me as well. I even seen a bunch of reviews of women sayin they didn’t like the smell of Black Phantom on paper lol, but I don’t give two shits. I still love it lol. I ended up buyin Alexandria’s version of it, which I heard many many good things about. Most of their inspirations are dead-on, but with better performance than the originals
 Nowadays, even some niche houses like “Creed” are startin to water their shit down. Such a shame.

Bro! Initio’s got many many wonderful bangers, and this is one of them. I actually like them a lil more than their sister brand, “Parfum’s De Marley”. It’s actually a bad idea to start smellin them at the mall :sweat_smile:. They have so many good ones like “Mind Games” Niche house and I be stuck their all day lmao
 I love “Narcotic’s Delight” and the new “Oud for Greatness” flanker Neo version. (Although it was not what I expected but is very good. It veers from the original OfG Dna. A fresher take of the original. Nothin groundbreakin, but nonetheless very pleasin)

I actually have this and revisited it yesterday to see if I would somehow magically like it more now that it’s been fully macerated lol and
 Okay bro, it’s not a bad scent by any means. Spicy and fresh. Mass appealing. But it’s just not for me. And that’s not because of the lack in performance. I just find it boring and the scent profile is underwhelmin for me. Yes you will get lots of compliments with it. And while I do enjoy compliments, I don’t reach for this one too much cuz I have others I can wear that I LOVE to smell in my scent trail more the Allure Homme Sport Extreme, that others love too.

That’s a big factor for me. I need to enjoy the sillage for me to thoroughly love it. Cuz I am the one stuck wit the smell all day lol. IMO, if I had to choose, out of another fresh frag that I got but don’t reach for either, though many people rave bout it and always love to smell it on me, is Rasasi’s ‘Hawas’
 But maybe it might be for you bro
 get a decant
 Bro, one time I had sprayed on Hawas and was at a Wal-mart, and I swear on my life I gotten 3 compliments that day. One from a guy, and two from girls. They all loved the smell lol. It’s nice, but I find it kinda plain. Still got a half bottle left. I just use it when I am in a rush and need a good versatile scent and don’t have time to pick and choose

Yeah, I think that’s on point bro. lol It’s a very very sexy scent imo. Only thing is it’s bouta get pretty hot, so
 I will be prepared next Winter though. But out of all the bottles I got, (I got alot of unique ones too) it’s one-of-a-kind and very complex. Very pleasing to my nose too.

Yh, one of those hyped up scents.

I think liking the fragrance you wear is no.1 priority because there’s no point to wear a mass appealing fragrance if at the end of the day you dislike it lol

Yeah, I heard Initio is a house with many great fragrances, want to test out side effect first as I heard it’s a beautiful fragrance

When I reach my first million dollars and become an A-LIST celebrity. I will have a perfume called “GoodBoy” produced by CH. I will also be in a commercial video clip. There is no one more sexy and attractive than me in that video. Just a few years

On another note, reddit has some niche frags there that are great in price. :sweat_smile: Lol You just needa to be clear from who you’re buyin from and if they legit or not

Also, I sprayed on Dua’s version of ‘Violet Sapphire’ from Boadicea the Victorious on one arm, and the OG on one arm, and smelt one, then the other, and they are 100% identical lol. Crazyy Lmao
 And 7+ hours later, I can still smell it pushin off my skin. The projection and sillage are also insane. It’s best you go lightly on the trigger wit this one or you gone drown people out. lmao I’m so glad I bought this and didn’t care that lots of people were sayin the DNA was ‘feminine’. It turns into a masculine/unisex scent if it’s on a man’s skin usually. Just like "Delina’’ from PDM. Damnnnn and I only sprayed literally 3 half sprays (Such a powerful atomizer lol) This shit is sexy af and I can’t take my nose off of it

Mancera’s ‘Red Tobacco’ is such a beautiful/sexy spicy and sweet scent. It’s not expensive either and I swear, cuts through the cold like it’s nothing. One spray is plenty dependin on the weather. 3 sprays you might be chokin people out lol. Such a good investment :heart_eyes: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
