Just wore happy the other day, the smell of death

I only drink that white.

1 sip of dark and my stomach is twisted instantly.

7 hours later and HTTP is still going strong

Craft beer are all I need man. IPAs for days. Now they need a fragrance that models the exact hoppy fruit scent as some of my favorite IPAs

I'm probably stating the obvious here, but Basenotes is NOT a good website to go to for finding out if something you're looking for is good or not.

So many of the negative reviews I see for scents that are praised in this thread are similar to "This smells good, but because _____(enter completely unknown fragrance here) already did this I'm going to give this a thumbs down" ,"Smells good but isn't mind blowingly unique", or "Smells good but I don't get the note of imperial eucalyptus and heavenly apples (what the @#$@ do either of those even mean?)". They take snobbery to new levels

 

[ddash]

not really,mostly negative there.

Fragrantica or store sites or forums reviews are better.

When I was young I thought Versace Blue Jeans was like the holy grail of colognes

It is pretty good, tho.

Basenotes was pivotal when I first started out, but I quickly realized they are a bunch of nagging lames. Fragrantica, luckyscent review section and trusting your own nose..

I od'd on a sale the Urban Outfitters had today.. 15 ml travel Atomizers of Histories de Parfums for $5 normally $36. In to tata I think I ordered 40.. already shipped.

 

[af1 1982]

Is that sale still going on at UO?? Any you would recommend?

 

[Extrait de Minimalisme]

Everything sold out, but 1725 Casanova is pure sex and Ambre 114 is a very good Amber based frag.

I got two notes I can smell, like and dislike 

. I just bought Love and Luck by Ed Hardy and love it. Smells good, but I cant smell most of the notes listed on the websites

ahahahahahhaha

I use to love the original ed hardy

Never telling anyone what cologne I'm wearing that I know in person. This my scent. Find your own.

 

[lamont]

I know this is not on topic but if your buying that Johnnie walker blue label it's a waste of money. Your just paying for the name. JW is blended scotch...if you want to make an impression single malt scotch is where to go. 12 yrs or older. The older the better. Same price as JW BL but way better quality. Trust me, I Love scotch.
Also I understand dudes want to save money but having a collection of cheapies is not a good look. Dudes really need to research things before making a logical decision. Cheapies are normally made with synthetic chemicals that are bad for your skin especially prolonged use. I used to love Happy by clique till I found out that it was filled with chemicals that isn't good for your skin especially with the sun beaming on it during the summer. It actually got no.1 on a list of the top worst cologne to ever wear. Filled with chemicals, smells great though but not a chance anymore.

straight up

It was raining and overcast all day today so the weather was actually cool for June in FL so I busted out DHI.

It's so damn good

 

[GTA 809]

I'm getting him black label. It's just to stock his bar for when he has company over.
Basenotes feels uppity. I like fragrantica better.

Same here. I still have a bottle in my closet from years ago . My first three bottles of cologne were Candie's Men, Dunhill Desire Red, and Versace Blue Jeans. Thought I was doing it for sure .

 

[degenerate423]

Chill. I rock Aventus. I don't want him smelling like me.

Aventus is catching on like fire. Cologne rep at Nordstrom in Westfield SF was telling me people ask about it all the time and this was last year. You might as well put your Pops on now .

 

[JL415]

^doesnt matter. You still won't catch much, if any, dudes out there rocking aventus when you out in the workplace/house party/club/whatever.

they talking about a woody citrus scent with a hint of musk. All I can smell is the old powder orange drink Tang.

What all do you have for split? I can't call them by pics. Never e'em seen most of the bottles since a good chunk of my collection is from splits

My fault, that wasn't meant to be taken literal as if Aventus is doing ADG numbers. Really just anecdotal.

well look at it this way, you say it smells like ORANGE tang. Orange is one of the notes in it...ta daaaaa, you deciphered a note

 

[Extrait de Minimalisme]

My dude nsj got half of the Neimans fragrance counter up for split, there's no reason ya'll should be copping overpriced samples from off eBay.


Making pops a 10 x 10 ml decant set for Father's day.. some heavy hitters in there.. he ain't eem ready, neither are the 40+ yr old yambs coming his way..

 

[xwestbullyx]

M.O.A.T. is def my fav right now. About to give my dad like 8 bottles of frags that I have no desire for anymore, lol.

Question, what noticeable differences can you guys tell in regards to the Bond frags? How's longevity also?
