Cologne and Fragrance thread

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I don't, the second I smell perfume or cologne I get a chemical taste in my mouth, don't know what causes it. That's why I'm asking if anyone here has the same problem.
Cheap fragrances often smell like a chemical mess. There are drinking cups that are scented and claim to trick your sensory system. So you can drink just sparkling water and it taste like soda.
It may be this effect?
 
I recently purchased Montblanc Explorer and at first when I test-sprayed it at my local Ulta, it smelled like shit but overtime I've grown to like it.

Have you all learned nothing? There’s a correct answer for which cologne a man should be using.

The one I like to use most is Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme. What I like about it is it has a somewhat strong sandalwood scent, and I think it works especially well when you use Sandalwood body wash, I use Every Man Jack Sandalwood scented body wash and sometimes put my clothes beside sandalwood incense for an hour or so, and also use a Sandalwood smelling antiperspirant like Old Spice Nightpanther which smells like Sandalwood and Chocolate.
 
I'm a woman but I've been thinking about getting myself a bottle of Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb for the cold months because it smells so cozy. I like the female version, Flowerbomb, as well but not enough to buy a full bottle; it just smells like the vague expensive perfume scent of a Macy's or Sephora but Spicebomb makes me smell like I bathed in chai.

It's pretty nice. I love the opening but the drydown was too much of a sweet mess for me to enjoy wearing it on myself so I gave mine away. I think it'd be a pretty good woman's frag.

The two greatest men's fragrances are Davidoff's Cool Water and Gucci Envy.

Issey Miyake fragrances smell like cat piss on me, for some reason.

bath and body works has some decent stuff but some of it is hit or miss, even if it's the same scent but different product.
for example: i fucking love the sweet pea shower gel so i got the fragrance mist.

it smells exactly like porta potty chemicals.
 
i dont ever wear any, but the one or two times i have ive used the classic clean masculine scent of brut. probably the best smelling of the cheap as dirt brands of cologne that ive smelled.

approved fragrances for men to wear:
>motor oil
>gasoline
>cigarette ash
>vodka
you left out the classic: hoppe's #9.
 
The time is coming. I'm almost out of Eau de Gunt (which I bought before it was declared to be Eau de Gunt). What's a good alternative?
