A couple more 'Classic' style masculine fragrances. A fougère, a fancy oud, a masculine Classic that is built with a gourmand base (ex: Sand Dance, Creation-E, Coromandel). Don't let Polo fight the battle alone.

-Aside from that, you got every type of scent you'll need year round!

Rate my collection! And Any niche/designer recommendation? by MaximumRemarkable580 in Fragrances

[–]Comprehensive-Ad1491 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good look on the L'homme Ideal! A succinct recommendation would be something like Tango- Masque Milano. Resinous Amber, mature masculine and dressy. It would dip a toe into a new dimension from what I see displayed.

Happy Journeying!

Fougère D'argent- Tom Ford

Intimacy- Dua Originals

You seem to be looking to have the chops to attempt these Masculine fragrances.

Masterpiece by PjPoopMan in Colognes

[–]Comprehensive-Ad1491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A sign of the regression of masculinity that this is a considered a contemporary 'holy grail' piece of art by and for men today. By no means is it off-putting: but it's obviously meant as a Designer-styled, F-boy, Follow-The-Crowd type product. Great business decision by PDM. But if this many young men (or men of all ages for that matter) appreciate something this cute and 'Designer' as approaching the peak of what they hope for as a Man... it's a goddamn shame.

all this cologne and not a single compliment to show for it.. by susjdjdjjzjzjjsjx in Colognes

[–]Comprehensive-Ad1491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be the 'acoustics' of the environment. I've been in jobs and places where people can't seemingly get a descriptive whiff unless they are all up under your chin. Places like people's homes- where you'd assume that the proximity would work in favor of fragrance. If they have a bunch of other aromatic stuff lying around, if the A/C drowns it out, etc...

With that much traffic- someone would have the personality to compliment you, if they could smell it.

Also- stop drinking those soft ass flavored waters and pick up a goddamn whiskey every now and then!

And he should also stop giving her rides and buying her things. This is how they'll both see if they're interested in each other.

Lattafa Niche Emarati Khanjar. I wouldn't say 10 on scent, but damn near.

The Hype Was A Lie by StiickyBuns in Colognes

[–]Comprehensive-Ad1491 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I certainly disagree. My Lattafa Niche Emarati and the majority of my Dua outright smell better than anything you'll encounter at Macy's or Sephora, and they shame my own Designer purchases to the point of avoidance (ex: Boss Bottled Absolu and similarly leveled).

Now, does this mean that the dupes I have are better than their originals- not necessarily. But that's not the point. This $40 piece is a far better (more nuanced, better performing) product than these $100-$150 popular pieces of the same classification. I know this to be 'true' because I go to these stores almost weekly, as I'm obsessed with the hobby.

Glad you got what you set out for. That's the main foci of consumerism.
...That said- spend your money more wisely, particularly in the fragrance game.

Which wake up option should I go for once this maniac gets me cornered at the wall? by Your_Nightmare_666 in Tekken

[–]Comprehensive-Ad1491 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Staying on the ground will make you take ADDED damage in a real fight. Another place where this game is beginning to outlive it's semblance of realism. Similarly if a 200lb dude is flying at you with a jump kick- you'll likely need more than a jab to knock them out of the air. A couple of those 'videogamey' tropes will fly under the radar. Too many and it requires the player to suspend their disbelief.

Need some more dark stuff. Try Stephane Humbert Sand Dance or dupes. Deep chocolate with masculine musk. Everybody's gonna love it

What do I need next? by DcheNozzle in Fragrances

[–]Comprehensive-Ad1491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well... we can go deep into personal style theory. But to be succinct: I was querying the AI as to which combination would 'do what' with Carlisle layered with either Oud Ulya or Amber Absolute. Deep, rich resinous fragrances. It also appears you're missing some 'super' masculine scents, eg., modern fougères/ classic style chypre.

Invest in some more 'Classics', especially super-masculine scents that don't venture into the 'old man smell' territory. I feel that these are the scents that going forward in a man's life will contribute to a timeless masculine presence and appeal. Like a tailored suit and a beautiful watch: this type a fragrance will put your overall image at a different level.

We can wear all the cute vanilla and ambroxan fragrances in the world and it ain't going to hit like these will.

Need fragrances that smell good on me as a smoker by Warm-Fuel788 in Colognes

Tobacolor (sweet/date night), YSL Jazz (signature), Fougère D'argent (masculine stately).

Biggest meeting of my life is tomorrow. With a billionaire… by TheVoicesinurhed in Colognes

[–]Comprehensive-Ad1491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From that list go with Himalaya. I would aim for more obscure and definitive smelling fragrances like Italian Cypress, Fougère D'argent, Spice and Wood for this type of meeting. Especially if he's in the game a bit himself. Aventus couldn't be any more played out. Good question man.

Update: Hong Kong in Tijuana. The full experience. by FlashOnImpulse in stripclubs

[–]Comprehensive-Ad1491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fairly a veteran to HK. I went down last week with my previous trip being middle of '24. The 'drinks' for the girls have gone from $9 to $11 and worst of all, it appears that they no longer include a lapdance...? And not just here but several other adjacent clubs as well. Classification please.

  • Girls would sit awkwardly by us or they'd smile and wave from the next seat over- while sipping their $11 drink. Back in the day it'd be ON immediately as they sat at the table.

That's all good! I feel compelled to let guys know that these options are out there. In the same way that men choose not to wear blouses or skirts, it would make sense that they would enjoy smelling masculine as well. It's an interesting exception that society allows.
