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

Yeah they got some bangers bro. Some are beast mode, but some are just moderate bro. I love Lorenzo Pazzaglia too but they are more expensive than Mancera’s. But they are beast mode
 As far as CH, I only got one I told you bout and I hardly wear it lol. But it’s got longevity and a decent projection, but not like beast mode or anything

Summer Hammer from Lorenzo Pazzagglia is so so very good lol I love this scent so much. It it just punches off the skin, and lasts all the way until the next day. Smells really sexy, sweet and of exotic fruits. I love it lol

I know this isn’t a summer fragrance question, but what is the best sandalwood you know of?

Also there is a light fragrance I love which is no longer being made. The ingredients are clementine, neroli, Tupelo honey, lily of the valley, Privet leaves and tonka bean. It was called Tupelo Lemongrass and was my absolute favorite. Any remarkable but light lemony and slightly sweet fragrances you know of?

I really really love D&G light blue (For women)
 I use it myself and think it’s waay better than the male version. It’s very very pleasing to the nose, and I am 95% sure you will like it lol. Others do come to mind but will have to get back to you. Along wit the Sandalwood one too. I do have some in mind, but they are not exactly ‘mass appealing’ lol

Hey @Rosechalice . I want you to trust me on this. Get your nose on Sospiro’s Vibrato. It’s not a particularly "Lemon’’ scent, but it’s a citrus frag. And it’s literally one of the best (If not the best) citrus frag I have ever smelt. It’s prolly one of my most complimented, but that’s not why I love it. it’s sparkling, long-lasting, addicting, effervescent, fresh, sexy, and extremely versatile. (Leans perfectly Unisex) When I can’t make up what to wear for the day, I usually just grab this one and go. And for a ‘niche’ category scent, it’s not too expensive. Lol Will get back to ya bout the rest. But this one will always be in my collection

@Rosechalice , here are some good sandalwood frags you need to try. I really enjoy them, but make sure you test them first.

  • Gris Charnel Extrait from BDK (But does not last as long for the price)
  • Layton from Parfums De Marley (I love this scent lol. It will forever be a staple in my collection as well. Iconic)
  • Santal Majuscule from Serge Lutens (Very creamy with chocolate and rose :heart:)
  • Santal Blanc from Van Cleef & Arpels
  • Sandalwood Temple by Sana Jardin (Very pleasant smelling and creamy. For women)

I also mentioned Vibrato cuz there are floral notes in it too. I wanna get another bottle cuz I founded one on sale lol. Lemmie get back to you for the lemon ones. These are pretty good though, but just sample them first. I will post more if I can think of them.

I couldn’t help myself, had to get me another 100 ml bottle of Vibrato just now lol. I have like 3 clones of this DNA, but none of them lives up the O.G. . “Black Panther” from “Alexandria” used to be good.

My new batch is not good
 It’s a shame cuz it was one of my favorite clones of all time. Now it just sucks. Lol Well, it’s actually not bad, but I want nothing short of great. It’s definitely 2d and flat, this latest batch.

P.S. - Technically ‘Black Panther’ is actually a clone of “Bvlgari’s Tygar” but it reminded me more of Vibrato. Which was inspired by “Tygar”. Brighter, more sparkly and more effervescent. Which was a plus in my book.

one of my favourite perfumes is Le Jardin De Monsieur Li, which is a sunny, citrusy and spicy fragrance that I adore. It’s like a garden in full sun, with all kinds of mediteranean herbs, and somewhere, for several seconds, the gorgeous fragrance of a true Lilium regale appears, then it hides, letting the juicy spices to keep going for hours and hours.
On fragrantica some people said it is the scent of happiness :slight_smile:

As for sandal perfumes, i am still hugely impressed by a pure essential Indian sandal oil, undilluted, that smells so powerful and gorgeous

Void my previous comment @Rosechalice. Lol It seems Vibrato has been reformulated. People told me to let it macerate for some months and the performance and etc should improve. Will let you know

Okay, so I used the “Summer Hammer” from Lorenzo Pazzaglia today and it smells a shit ton better at night time and in cool weather than what the name implies. I tried wearing it one time when it was hot outside and it didn’t smell anywhere near as good as it did today. Kinda cloying even
 But today it smelled so wonderful

Okay, so it’s Winter time, and you know what that means. Time to bring out the heavy, rich and dark scents. All the spicy ones too. And of course all the gourmands. I had recently gotten a bottle of “Dark Knight” from, Alexandria Fragrances come in. And I also had a sample of the OG, from Kilian called, “Black Phantom”. I sprayed one on one wrist, and one on the other. I shit you not, I absolutely COULD not tell the difference.

All the notes were there in Alexandria’s version, and so smoothly blended. It’s all there. The dark chocolate, the rich caramel, dense and creamy coffee note, the slight booziness of the rum
 It’s all there. Damn this shit smells so good :joy:
 I know it’s a really sexy scent but I am wearing it before bed now. lol If any of you are able to get your nose on the OG, and then try a sample of Alexandria’s inspiration of it, I shit you not
 I bet you some money you absoluteley CANNOT tell the difference between the two.

Thinking of getting Oud for Glory, anyone got any experience with this one?

I have not smelled this one, but heard wonderful things about it. I suggest DO NOT BLIND BUY. Lol Test it first. I only sniffed the Neo version of OFG and it’s very nice. Fresh but doesn’t smell very niche, but I heard they’d changed it from the original DNA of the OG

Two of my brothers gave me a bottle of Montblanc Starwalker for my birthday. What a pleasant coincidence! I loved the scent its woody, reminiscent of marine notes, and I love the seađŸ„°
