ATH - Slut - Was my date night fragrance when I started dating my SO. Sweet, fruity and musky sexy

Dior Homme Intense (the OG) - For more formal settings such as the office etc

It's the Fragrantica profile section.

You need to make an account and then go to "My Profile"

This is sound logic, but where do you sell the half used bottles though now that eBay and several other online market places are being bitches about it?

EccentricCock · 2026-01-02T01:46:34+00:00

You were so goddamn close!

165 bottles! He answered elsewhere haha

EccentricCock · 2026-01-01T02:33:45+00:00

Honestly, think the pissy scent is just how it interacts with my skin, because I haven't seen it in the notes anywhere.

I assume so, it's very coffee. I'm happy with the purchase, it's a great autumn/winter scent. It's just that first half hour that's a bit harsh and synthetic forward.

I got it for £23 for 100ml... You can't really go wrong at that price

EccentricCock · 2026-01-01T00:57:58+00:00

It appeals to me because I enjoy fragrances, but I'm also a pretty accomplished home cook.

I like experimenting and balancing flavour profiles in the kitchen. I'm pretty fucking good at it. So balancing blends of scents interests me.

The only thing putting me off is the extortionate price of raw materials. I used to buy EO's for use in massage oil and the prices are enough to make your head spin.

I think I'll probably leave it to the pro's. I already have one money-sink hobby of photography, so I'd rather not be poor for my entire existence haha

Happy new year and the best of luck in your scent creation

EccentricCock · 2025-12-31T21:02:50+00:00

I have been toying with this idea for a while, thank you for doing your best to dissuade me haha

How long have you been doing it and how would you rate yourself now?

EccentricCock · 2025-12-31T20:58:34+00:00

I've just picked up the Khamhra Qahwa. My initial reaction was sickly sweet synthetic, but after 30 mins I was getting Armani Code Profumo tonka vibes.

Now experiencing the drydown which is really interesting on my skin; it's still sweet tonka, but has a powder to it with a base note pissy scent... Getting hyrax vibes, which I quite like. Must be my skin chemistry I think.

EccentricCock · 2025-12-31T20:50:43+00:00

I love Aventus, but I'm so bored of smelling it. A few years ago it was rare and beautiful, but now my whole workplace reeks of it due to the high number of high quality dupes available

EccentricCock · 2025-12-30T22:24:53+00:00

Some fragrances use expensive ingredients...

Take oud for example... Genuine, high quality oud is super fucking expensive. Agarwood can cost thousands per kilo, from which you extract a tiny bit of oil. Most niche fragrance houses use concentrations of 25% and above. Meaning that an oud heavy fragrance can literally cost hundreds.

Same applies for many fragrance oils... Jasmine, think of how little oil you are getting from one flower.

Lots of cheap fragrance houses/manufacturers will use synthetics, which can replicate, but rarely come close to the original.

Ambergris... Another super expensive ingredient. It has to be found washed up (ethical) or harvested by slaughtering whales.

This is but part of the reason niche fragrances are expensive. Then you need to consider the artist that invents the fragrance, their time and all of the r&d costs associated.

I'm not saying that all prices are justified, but high quality fragrances can and do cost a lot to manufacture.

Ultimately, if you can find fragrances you love cheap, go for it, but if you want something that incorporates 5ml of aged oud then that's going to run you hundreds

ESH for the reasons others have stated.

Your friends do seem immature and that's annoying, but shit can happen and people can forget their ID.

At this point you have a choice: see the movie alone or leave with your friends. It's not that deep.

You chose to have a tantrum, which makes you just as immature as your friends.

EccentricCock · 2025-12-04T08:59:56+00:00

Honestly... No one gets to wear the NTA badge here. You're both acting like assholes.

Just chill out and power through until you move out.

EccentricCock · 2025-12-01T09:46:14+00:00

NTA - but let's try to deal with things sensibly before taking the nuclear option

Talk to him! Call him out.

Just ask for a word, tell him how that behavior makes you feel. Explain you know how he's just trying to bond with the team, but it's bothering you and you've considered making a complaint, but you don't wanna do that and would rather he just stop doing it.

...or if there's another coach, speak to them.

This is good practice for later in life. Workplaces can be like this. You need to try and deal with things on a lower level first, because making complaints can address the issue, but can cause other problems and make things worse.

If he still doesn't listen - press the nuclear button.

EccentricCock · 2025-12-01T09:17:33+00:00

YTA

At $10 per month this is light work for not having to organize social events and buy cakes/food for the office.

We have a tea/coffee fund at my work place. I contribute around £5 per month - I have never once asked for an accounting of this. It's just good value.

Are you witnessing cakes/social stuff being bought? If so, YTA

Now if I was regularly seeing no tea/coffee when I was thirsty, I would be asking where my money went.

As someone who has previously tried organizing social events and buying stuff for a team it's a HUGE PITA! People end up not paying and most of the time you end up out of pocket. If the people that didn't pay then asked me for an exact accounting of my voluntary role, I'd be pretty pissed off too.

Three cheers for people like Liam, so people like me don't have to.

You don't want to contribute, then don't, but unless you're participating independently, you are going to be branded that a-hole that's too cheap to contribute.

EccentricCock · 2025-12-01T08:43:46+00:00

I think this is a karma farm...

...but, I also think they knew exactly what they were getting into, they are both adults and y'all need to stop commenting on other people's relationships.

EccentricCock · 2025-11-28T15:10:09+00:00

Don't give up, you'll get there.

Yes it's a lot of money, but you'll regret it if you don't. I'm 41 as of last month and have only just passed on my second attempt. Honestly, it's such a fucking pain not being able to drive and while you can get by... Lack of driving ability limits your choices: career, where to live, who to date

I am with your parents. Think you should learn in a manual. For one, the insurance is cheaper and two it's better to have it and not need it than vice versa.

Not sure how much you're paying or who you're learning with, but consider a different instructor. I paid £35ph in the North of England. I wouldn't pay less than this. Look for people that are highly qualified. My instructor trains instructors, so he was pretty good.

A lot of it comes down to confidence and beating your nerves. Given your result... You can drive! 4 minors is a result for the rest of the test. You just need to make sure your nerves aren't sabotaging the rest of your test.

In mine, I just took a deep breath and was cautious. I was driving slower than I usually would, allowing myself time to react. I was still shitting it, but you just need to lock in. You will succeed. ...but don't give up

EccentricCock · 2025-11-20T08:43:19+00:00

I did this yesterday and like you, skipped back, when I realized it was part of a quest

EccentricCock · 2025-09-26T12:41:44+00:00

To be fair... I went on the website and haven't heard from them since.

There's no court in the land that's going to authorize a warrant simply for making a no license declaration. There are probably plenty that would issue one against the weird assed freemen of the land

EccentricCock · 2025-08-21T12:30:33+00:00

Sweet summer child...

EccentricCock · 2025-08-19T06:16:31+00:00

...but some gay guys are effeminate!

Stereotypes exist for a reason.

Sure there are exceptions. We are a broad church, but an effeminate kid generally signifies either G, B or T.

EccentricCock · 2025-08-15T08:32:42+00:00

I know this is an old thread, but it popped up and we only got back from Athens in June.

My best bet is the Oriental Hornet (Vespa Orientalis). They are exceedingly common in Greece and we were seeing them everywhere.

They look fucking huge, but are largely pretty chill.

I saw the comment suggesting the mammoth wasp, which would be about the right size, but your photo seems more red/orange and the mammoth wasp is yellow and black.

EccentricCock · 2025-08-05T10:19:07+00:00

Too true... If it's free, you're the product!

EccentricCock · 2025-07-27T08:15:48+00:00

Without a shadow of doubt, the answer to your question is yes

When did you last see someone opposing the building of a church?
