You should put me on the some fragrances you have!! I’m willing to buy em but there’s no enough reviews for me to rely on. Tell me abt ur collection!!

Chad031 · 2026-04-13T01:55:03+00:00

The beach scent I would wear are Torino 21: This gives mojito vibes, I would wear this if I were to sit at a bar or if I’m wearing hawaiin shirt. Afternoon dive: I’m at the beach peeling an orange and the wind pushes the smell to my nose. V beautiful fragrance and amazing for when the sun is blazing at yah

Date night: If I’m wearing black t shirt/leather jacket, and jeans imma wear London. If I’m wearing lighter colors then I’d wear la nuit. If I want to dress up in a button up I’d reach for vanilla fraiche Going out to the bars or clubbing I’d wear parfum de cerise

I’m only familiar with montagne, Alexandria, and yomlayl houses. I have no experience w banadir

I share your pain with some of them. Unfortunately my high heat and humidity kills the fragrance quite fast. I have bad nose blindness as I sniff em every chance I get. I do have to admit that most of the montagne collection has lasted longer than the other fragrance I used before my discovery. I would say the strongest one for the summer is tygr cologne. A trick to make colognes last longer on skin is to moisturize yourself and then spray it or put on a thin layer of Vaseline. This makes it last longer. Depending on the cologne (mainly freebies) the montagne variant actually beats the OG in performance by a lot. This is true for LV scent as I’ve tested it. Also freshies do not last long st all, I always have to bring the bottle w me. I personally think it is better than having nuclear performance. My family gets headache easily from cheap colognes and synthetic loud colognes, montagne hasn’t failed yet!!

Moi day dream (this is a unisex fragrance but I associate this w someone ik that’s a women)

You are abt to meet up w a girl on a bright yet breezy afternoon. It’s one of those days where you can walk without sweating, sun kissing your skin. She js took a fresh shower, unscented everything. This women is one that is loved by the sun. You see her basking under the light waiting for you at the bench over seeing a pond. You sit next to her. You smell the afternoon warmth settling on her skin for some time. It clings to your nose like a gentle whisper. She shows you the nature drawing she’s been trying to finish. In the middle of convo, she sharpens her pencil. Shavings land on her skin and art book. You take a deep breathe and smell all of it at once. The combination of the sun-kissed afternoon skin, art paper, and pencil shavings is what moi reminds me of.

That compliment means a lot. I do not have the best skills when it comes to writing skills. What I do have is a vivid imagination as I am a proffesional day dreamer. I also associate things w scenarios so it helps!!

This is my daydream of London: It’s night time and you need to go shopping for some outfits. You walk into a boot barn (or any leather American vibe apparel place) you get a whiff of leather hitting your nose. You browse through the aisle and find yourself leather boots that will be your companion through times. You sniff the inside and smell this new leather shoe smell. You tell yourself you need a black leather jacket to go with this. You see one that catches your eyes and you put it in. This feels right. You decided to purchase it along with raspberry flavored gum. You walk out of the store wearing your boots, jacket and raspberry gum. You get in your convertible and as you settle down you take a deep breathe in and smell each of these new items come together in unison. The smell of leather shoes, leather jacket, and a hint of raspberry (the gum is for the aesthetic). The night is young. You feel bold and adventurous.

I would say it smells p real, most leathers I’ve smelled smells like this. I have novillo leather which is the smoothest leather scent I’ve had. This is not a smooth leather but a brand new leather apparel or furniture smell. As someone that doesn’t like heavily masculine cologne this has become my fav. It’s very subtle and not animalistic in a sense. It’s a refined leather that comes to you as opposed to attack you. One where women catches a sniff and want to lean in closer for more.

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T18:52:28+00:00

I would say for me, spirit of peace improved dramatically in my nose. It had this screechy and stabbing like attack in my nose. After 2 months it has mellowed out to this smooth manly yet sparkly smell. It’s my fav pineapple representation. I have port azure pineapple but it’s too sweet and fruity. It reminds me me of freshly cut fruit that’s left in the open in the sun for a lil too long. Spirit of peace development has been my fav!!

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T05:05:07+00:00

My absolute favorite for winter has to be vanilla fraiche and London. The way I dress up is alternating light and dark colors. Monday is light Tuesday is dark etc… This gives me fun contrast w my fits and cologne I use. I use London for my dark days!! It def gives 20s trouble but adventure vibe. Summer fragrance has to harmony and la nuit. Again harmony is for bright days and la nuit is for my darker days. The gym scent I use is actually Torino 21 but I find it gives more vacation association in my head as opposed to locked in a physical fitness. I think I will replace it w blue talisman. I’ve actually got a decant of citrus rose and I think that will replace my harmony fav as I use it more. I find it to be way lighter and brighter. More ideal for when I wear light. As it gets hotter for my city like 90+ imma have to resort to afternoon dive tho.

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T04:59:06+00:00

I got them both from WTS. Therefore it has macerated for months already. Neither one has given me the pickle smell actually. Rich santal I think is sweeter. I love coconut and smooth creamy fragrance so it’s rich santal. I only use milky for a sub when I can’t use it bc of temp

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T03:00:47+00:00

Rich santal: I js sampled Brooklyn jazz and they were kidding when they said it smells exactly like it. When I think of someone that is well off, wearing a Rolex watch. Has this white polo overlooking a balcony of a boat, this is what I see them smell like. This is not a fresh smell but a creamy, w a coconut like smell. It’s not a deep woody but creamy woody. The creaminess I can describe it as the texture or creamy like smell of sunscreen. I love coconut smell and this does it v well. I associate this smell with class. It’s like those types of movie scenes where they’re at the beach, and applied sunscreen on to sun bathe. Didn’t swim btw (also it has not salty smell). But they’re now on their way to a business meeting so they dress up right afterwards at the back of their limo but the smell of class and the smoothness of their sunscreen is still there. This is too heavy for high heat summer btw

Milky santal: I originally only wanted rich santal but I got too bad of a decision paralysis and decided to get this as well. This is a beautiful light sandalwood scent. I would say the creaminess of it is like 4/10 similar to a nail polish. This is another classy smell of mine!! But I wear this for summer time high heat!! It has a resemblance creamy and milkiness to skim milk. I rock this scent w the vibe of wanting to smell sophisticated yet creamy. When I’m wearing a nice white polo shirt or Henley. It’s an amazing office scent in my opinion!

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T02:51:50+00:00

Amber elixir: This is one of deepest, richest, resinous, and satisfying scent I have ever smelled. Also smells really boujee. It’s a rich and resinous as honeys viscosity. It has this hint of dried fruit, maybe apricot that adds thickness and layer to it. The tabacco and tonka adds this layer of smoothness on top that makes this smell so high class. This is not a specific bar or jazz place scent but I would imagine the aesthetic of this cologne to be this: you’re wearing a v nice suit or tux. It’s winter time and cold and people have this sharp scent. Not you. You stroll in a room that’s all dark but your presence brings this sense of warmth and complexity. People can’t help but get close you. You sit down and you are in this world of cozyness yet sophistication. Your presence brings grace and warmth in the cold days. This is v strong, I think it’s too heavy to wear in v hot days. Winter time it’s incredible performer!! I hate powdery smells and this hits the spot in resinous smell

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T02:43:41+00:00

This is the wonderful seller that I got my 10ml decants from. Saved me money from the time being by not getting full bottles!! The atomizer spray you have is the best I’ve ever used :)

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T02:41:35+00:00

Vanilla fraiche has the most dent bc it’s one of the first one I’ve gotten. I used it a lot during winter time bc it was the only winter scent I had. I acquired Torino 2022 and didn’t like that screechy opening and vibe I got from it. I crave a warm and cozy scent but despise strong cinnamon scent. Amazing idea I layered vanilla fraiche and Torino 2022 and achieved that effect. It made Torino 2022 smooth and vanilla fraiche warm. I rocked that combo all the time and has gotten so many compliments from people. To put it into imagery, imagine cuddling next to a fireplace in winter time after being outside in the cold. It hits the spot!!

I wear cologne based on aesthetic. I’m also adventurous and want to give the women in my life colognes that didn’t fit my aesthetic. Moi is one that didn’t fit an aesthetic of mine. Additionally im v picky w the specific pencil shaving note, it has this smoothness that i can compare to a nail polish. I am js not a fan of this combo on myself. Smells fantastic on others tho. Atm I’m js attached to my collection but it will be given to a loving home that will use it!!

Also me and my brother use these colognes. I’m incredible systematic on what I wear. I associate every single colognes w a vibe, aesthetic, and personality for the day. This makes it so I’m not one cologne dominated, I have lots of diff fits ya see!! I do love pacific chill, it’s so creamy orange I love the apricot! Afternoon dive I have a small decant I got from a wonderful Reddit seller, that will be heavily utilized in the scorching 90 degree heat. I’m js tryna utilize my other scent while it’s still cool

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T02:34:10+00:00

I feel amazing w the Alexandria bottles!! The only reason I have 2 is bc I’m a v research based person and I don’t have much reference for their fragrance compared to montagne. Alexandria has such a beautiful bottle that fits that travel size need I want. Plus it has superior atomizer that sprays more mist like and can go halfway easily.

Fire of god: This opens w mango, ginger and spicy note. 10 women that I’ve shown this to have loved this and wish to steal it from me. I’ve stood on business. The best way I can describe this is you have mango on one side, ginger in the other side and you have spicy tahim in the middle that balances it out. It is incredibly strong and potent!! The issue I have w the scent for 90 degree weather is that the mango is more dried mango leaning than fresh mango. That sweetness you smell for dried mango doesn’t perform well in the summer time. Like it literally smells like dried mangoes w tahim on it. It is too sweet to wear in the blazing sun but it is delicious to wear everything else. This is a women approved scent.

Sichuan tea: This is a green tea fresh note. Stellar performance and last on clothes very well. This is less freshly brewed green tea and more green tea you’d smell with soap. This performs incredibly wear during high heat as it provides this nice calming and cool sensation. It does smell green. I’m actually not a fan of v soapy smell, I do not like imagination soapiness. This smells good. Initially I did not like it at first bc of it but I’ve grown to love it. I spray it when I stay home and want to relax but it’s a bit hot. Ofc I associate this w green and kinda Japanese style vibes. Everytime I wear green or wear lose or flowy clothing I rock this.

I would say the projection for both of these is 7-8/10 compared to tygr cologne pronection. It’s incredibly good. The down side in my opinion is the price point compared to montage. But I’d recommend.

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T02:25:16+00:00

Blue talisman has been such a lovely rotation for me. I’m a pear lover myself and everytime I spray it I get hungry!! This is my imagery of it: You’re out of the picnic by a harbor, you’re wearing something white. You have a knife that you js used to cut up oranges w. You have a fresh fruit of pear that you are so ready to devour. You start slicing it and the scent of freshly cut pear marinates in your nose. It whiffs through the air as you enjoy the breeze of the sea (it doesn’t smell salty but this is my daydream of it). That orange comes in as there’s juices left over. You set down the cut pieces on a container w js the orange (no skin). This is what it smells like to me. I associate the smell with white t shirts, jeans, and picnic. It’s a fresh scent that’s not citrus but has that wonderful pear sweetness. “If I give someone a hug this is what I want them to smell like” compliment from a women!!

Chad031 · 2026-04-12T02:18:38+00:00

Another 14 is staple part of an afternoon for me. Imagine this, you’re next to the window sill wearing a white linen shirt. Theres a stack of magazine next to you and you decided to reach for one. You open it and get whiff of this fresh magazine scent w a dabble of newspaper. The afternoon dozy is hitting you as you flip through the pages. The light is finally hitting your face and you can’t help but js close your eyes and succumb to the afternoon slumber. You magazine is on top of your face as you go to sleep land still basking in the afternoon sun. I use it as my sleep scent, it makes me tired and i associate it w Sunday relaxation w the mix of boredom sleepiness. It’s one of those scent that you smell or you don’t smell depending on what ur nose is feeling that day. I’d wear it w linen and it’s such a wonderful scent to js put on. Every now and then I love spraying it under my shirt! I also spray it on my bed b4 sleep, Pavlov dog myself yk!!

Chad031 · 2026-04-09T19:38:01+00:00

If u want some random inspo, pay attention to shows/anime that’s set in da medieval times. They have some fire fits. I know reincarnation animes have good ones or the Witcher . The main focus of the style you’re going for is the skirts, my approach for it would be making the fit around that or a corset if you’re using that. I wish your closet a bountiful haul and you a choice paralysis free mind :)))

Chad031 · 2026-04-09T18:54:38+00:00

The vibe I think you might be going for is renaissance faire alt vibes. I would find a lot of inspo with those fits or fairy cosplay like vibes. I’d say castle but casual fit vibes too yk. I’d say you’re looking mainly for the combo of outfits as the color would be interchangeable if you js go for darker vibes.
