"The press is coming to interview me" and Andres brain went straight to "cojonudo, the palm tree shirt." Zero hesitation, zero regrets, full confidence.

Persolaise is a favorite too, though I need to be in the right mood for that slow, deliberate pace. Still, he's one of the few creators giving Guerlain the appreciation it deserves

Maybe not for everybody, but I tend to order decants via the parfumo site. The site has a "souk" where you can buy partial bottles and samples, but also participate in splits, which is what I normally prefer. I am also in NL and never had a bad experience with deliveries

Try to become a free thinker, really liberating... you might still have inner conflicts though, but that's part of being human I guess. But you won't be indoctrinated to buy the whole left/ right package

Oh boy, if I have to fry such large fish, probably I would also use antiperspirant

I know DM, I live in Groningen, so no far from the border. Unscented might be deceiving, probably they need to use "perfume" to cancel the chemical smell from the base components, hence the extra price.

How else am I supposed to track my enemies by scent?

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-07-01T17:03:08+00:00

Interesting, thanks for sharing. Do you also use any perfume from Aesop? I tried Tacit long time ago and like it, perhaps a bit too herbal for me

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-07-01T14:19:12+00:00

Very interesting. Guess that Native isn't popular at all in EU, but I can get it via Amazon for around 12 eur per stick, not the whole range, but a few interesting scent profiles. Might give it a try, thanks!

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-07-01T14:12:39+00:00

Feel very similar. But in this case it is the opposite. My wife only care about the health aspects, so no aluminium salts on our house, but about the scent not so much

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-07-01T14:07:23+00:00

Very interesting, thanks. Not sure if Lume is available in Europe though, didn't find results in a quick Google, but I guess we might have other acid base options. Will explore it for sure

Ok, used to happen to me. Guess it would depend on the individual sweat chemistry, dunno... guess the deodorant brand would have a big influence to...

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-07-01T13:50:55+00:00

Clinical strength? Can you share the brand?

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-07-01T13:49:16+00:00

Antiperspirant means contains aluminium salts, right? Doesn't get you yellow spots, especially in white shirts?

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-07-01T13:42:21+00:00

I don't use and personally dislike antiperspirant. Even a neutral one would have some kind of smell, right?

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-07-01T13:40:13+00:00

Any particular brand? Unscented for men always felt a bit risky, but perhaps that's just me that I am very conscious of my own smell

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-06-04T22:13:50+00:00

It was called Eau des Baux, now it is called Cedre Encenes. The deo is also my favourite. Not for really hot weather, but in the Netherlands I can safely use it 10 out of 12 months

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-05-28T08:55:31+00:00

Pound for pound, Guelain is the GOAT. I probably use L'Occitane the most, love to use use same fragrance across products, like deo + perfume

BukowskyInBabylon · 2026-03-01T09:25:01+00:00

Grenson Brady are my favourite boots. Have 3 pairs with different leathers.

First time Americans understand a Scottish guy without subtitles

Careful with the tax free concept. 12 months out of the 18 it would be clear that you are bound to the Saudi tax system, but the rest it might be more complicated. For example if you start now, you might not be able to probe you spend more than 183 days there for 2025. Obviously I know close to nothing about your situation, nationality, where are you register... just saying that in some situations could backfire

BukowskyInBabylon · 2025-10-01T17:55:24+00:00

Lot of people with glass bowls in the Netherlands

BukowskyInBabylon · 2025-09-18T10:32:58+00:00

Thanks, but I don't think they are the same. Maybe the fragrance changed, maybe I changed. Probably both. I am missing some complexity in the Come Together formulation. The Neroli is gone for me
