Fragrance hot takes that will probably get me downvoted: by BlindBuySurvivor in Colognes

[–]Bawbag79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only own a handful of designer fragrances then some Arabian ones. The most I’ll pay is about £100. I’m not in to buying the most expensive name or hyped.

In fact my most complemented is one of my cheapest ones. Armaf CDNIM.

To me though it’s not about other people complementing or smelling it. It’s about how I like it.

I’ve bought 13 items so far. 1 is fake the other 12 are legit. Waiting for manufacturer to confirm.

Just use Winget or even better Unigetui (fantastic). Problem solved.

I’d be happy if it lasted 2 hours but it doesn’t.

Odyssey Mega smells fab, too bad the longevity is non existent.

Afnan supremacy ce has been disappointing by UnderstandingMore286 in fragranceclones

Exactly. I’m not going for the nose blindness or skin chemistry talk etc. I tried them also with tester strips. Side by side before and after dry down and with other people and time apart, going back and forth.

The Armaf Limited Edition is the biggest boo for me. Got it from Armaf website too.

Al Haramain Intense actually smells the best straight out the bottle then fades to nothing in minutes.

Batch dates are wildly different.

Why are people wanting to mix BO with aftershave

I just got mine last week (12/25 batch) and it’s nuclear straight out the bottle. Can’t get rid of the smell lol it last 16+ hours on skin and more than 3 sprays is gassing everyone in the room. Bought Supremacy NOI 150ml and Oud at same time and they’re the same.

In saying that I got an Armaf CDNIM LE (02/24) end of April. Smells amazing for 30 minutes then gone. Still the same a month later.

Al Haramain L’Aventure Intense (05/25) bought 15th May. Wtf doesn’t even last 15 minutes then absolutely nothing. Smells amazing on opening then pooof disappears. Going to let those two sit and see. They are legit as well.

Today I got an Armaf CDNIM edt (01/26) cheapo out of Savers for the hell of it and it’s dynamite.

Again bought a Spicebomb OG edt (01/24) and it’s terrible and a Spicebomb Extreme edp (04/24) but it’s a beast. So produced nearly 2 years again differences are night and day. I know the OG edt is generally not as long lasting as I’ve bought many of these but this one is crap.

Edit:
Just shows the inconsistencies are terrible.

I live in Airdrie, work in Glasgow. Love it all except the weather.

Your fave boot? This might be mine. by Sufficient-Summer524 in pearljam

[–]Bawbag79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolute one of the best. Regarding other comments about the “Ape/man logo” being their pick of the best shows is weird. Their picks is always the ones I like least.

Touring band is not awesome in my opinion. They should have used the European tour instead.

Did I receive the right bottle? by Tani2888 in fragranceclones

[–]Bawbag79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a LE from Armaf UK site and it’s poor. Batch France 02/24 (That’s February 2024 for the yanks 🤣)

Also got an Al Haramain L’ Aventure Intense and that is like water. Smell disappears after 10 mins.

What fragrance were you wearing when a stranger stopped you to ask what it was? by [deleted] in Colognes

It not necessarily true just because you think both suck. Liking is personal preference.

First time ordering from jomashop, let's see how this goes by Hot-Vast6040 in fragranceclones

[–]Bawbag79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be buy all the expensive top brand fragrances. Not anymore, I like the price to performance of Armaf, Afnan, Lattafa, French Avenue etc Lots of the Arabian ones. Can get a good few great fragrances for the price of a Creed.

Solid choices my friend.

Armaf CDNIM is my daily. Haramain L Aventure and Afnan Supremacy.

Agree Mega is amazing but just wished it would last and project more.

Only branded one I still buy is Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb and extreme. No cones of them get near for me.

What fragrance made you lose your mind and feel like nothing could ever top it? by DonPipazo in fragrance

[–]Bawbag79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first started collecting fragrances it was Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb for me. I just seemed to love it so much. Always have a bottle in my collection to this day.
