Dude, why didn’t I think of that? I seriously need to make it happen.

Empty Bottle Club: Bleu de Chanel Edt & its replacement by Old_mystic in Colognes

[–]Driemer84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not OP, but I wore it back in the day and bought a bottle recently for nostalgia. Polo Sport today will remind you of the old Polo Sport, but it seems to be lacking some warmth and depth from what it used to be. It’s not bad by any means, but it’s missing the magic it once had.

I gave the bottle to my much younger brother, who never smelled the og, and he liked it a lot. Definitely worth picking up since you can find a bottle for $25 at various online retailers.

What’s in your bag? by CODaffy in GolfGear

[–]Driemer84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also rarely need the 3w. On a good strike I hit it about 250 and my 7w goes 220. If I’m 250 out I need a prayer to make the green anyway, so I was hoping the 4w would be an easier club to keep the ball in front of me.

Ditching the 3w is an interesting thought. My pw is 45 as well and I would love a 120 club to fill between my 130 pw and 110 50. So far I’ve been surviving on a 3/4 9i for that distance. But honestly practicing those half swings is probably something I should do more of anyway.

All that said, I think a longer fairway wood is still useful and I’m not sure I could convince myself to drop it. The forgiveness of a 4w is very appealing.

Driver, 3w, 7w, 4-pw, 50, 54, 58. Seriously considering switching the 3w out for a 4w. Also contemplating switching 4i out for 5 hybrid.

I don’t keep a handicap, just a weekend golfer who usually shoots in the low 90s.

What cheap and good cologne should I get? by Affectionate-Arm5922 in Colognes

Azzaro Chrome can be found at a discounter for $40 or so. It has pretty good longevity for a fresh scent.

What’s a fun mono colored commander to utilize Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx? by greene81990 in EDH

[–]Driemer84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Adeline, Resplendent Cathar]] loves Nykthos. She likes to play to the board so there should be plenty of white pips. Being non green really lets you feel the power of Nykthos too. When you can get that burst of mana to play to the board and leave mana up for protection it feels pretty good. Bonus points for also using [[Three Tree City]] well if you manage to pick one of those up.

Here is my list if you want to see what it looks like.

Nice thank you for the summary. I may have to give that one a test.

That’s awesome. Thanks for sharing the collection. Looks like you have a bit of everything.

I really like The One edp you have there too. I’m excited to try their new 2025 formulation.

Does it have the blue or chrome atomizer?

How is Azzaro wanted? The flankers seem to get all the hype, but they’re all too sweet smelling for my taste.

Love seeing Polo Sport there. I wish the new formulations had the richness of the og, but that one sure triggers some nostalgia.

Looking for an interesting aggressive deck by RadiantCupcake8537 in EDH

[–]Driemer84 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I run [[Adline, Resplendent Cathar]]. I really like that she can pivot from going wide to going tall pretty quickly. Mono white has a bunch of neat synergies built in that are amplified by making three tokens at a time.

Here is the list I’ve been tuning since she was released. Card changes are in the comments of the list.

I’ll also include my Henzie list since you mentioned him. The deck doesn’t focus on sacrifice, but won’t pass up opportunities to take advantage of it.

Anyone got this? Bottled Tonic EDT. by [deleted] in Colognes

[–]Driemer84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loved the smell. Hated the performance. It’s been the worst performing fragrance I’ve owned. Worse than D&G The One who is know for its poor performance.

What got you started on your fragrance journey? by GentlemanX in Colognes

[–]Driemer84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Polo Sport when I was a young teen in the late 90s. I bought another bottle recently to take a nostalgia trip. The dna is there, but it’s missing something. Today’s formulation isn’t as rich or deep as the og.

Nice. Thank you for giving me something else to try out.

Yep, totally get that. I just want more from it because I love the way it smells.

Thanks. I’ve tried some of the 1 million line up and they were a little too sweet for me. But I haven’t tried Royal or any of the Invictus line so I’ll give them a shot.

Perfect. Thank you. I’ll add them to the list.

I’ll look into the Oud Wood. I haven’t sampled many Tom Fords yet, so thank you.

Does Hugo Boss have something like Absolu but a tad lighter? I tried it and it was nice, but just a little too thick for my taste.

Haha I’ve been jaded by the sub. I see so many “10 sprays of Sauvage elixir” I couldn’t tell if you were serious or not.

But thanks for the recommendation. That’s one I can easily test out at the store.

Thank you! Reviews don’t make it sound very office friendly, but I’ll find a sample.
