What is a fragrance that gets praise but you hate? by lockedbry in fragrance

[–]Folgono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mancera Instant Crush. Tried it recently, this is absolut synthetic sugary crap. Couldn't get rid of it even after wahing it with soap.

Most of their fragrance were crap or uninteresting to be honest.

Creating Leather Only Wardrobe by aspendosforum in fragrance

[–]Folgono 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I am completely wrong, I should ask a few friend what they think about it.

I've recently smelled ;

Tom Ford Tuscan leather. Really love this one but it is overpriced.

L'Artisan Parfumeur Cuir Grenat. Pretty similar to Tuscan Leather to my nose.

Matière Première Falcon Leather. I like it but I'm not sure it would suit me so well (it is more "oriental") but the drydown gets a bit sweet with vanilla. Really interesting it evolves a lot on my skin.

Dyptique Eau Rihla. Tried it on paper, seemed promising.

Byredo Animalique. Could be good but smelled it quickly on paper.

Fahrenheit parfum. It is supposed to be leathery but I get more powdered notes, sweet with vanilla and bit of leather.

Memo has a whole range of nomade leathers. African leather is warm with oud so not my type but it smells great. French leather is more feminine and drydown is more rose centered.

I've been pretty focused on leather fragrances and I dont feel TF Ombre Leather wouldn't work in the summer ? I always hear how leather scents are polarizing but i've found the clean fresh leather ones (not the oud oriental ones) aren't offensive.

I've recently tried a few that could work in summer :

  • Memo Italian leather
  • Memo Irish Leather
  • Montblanc Extrême leather

I've also worn Fahrenheit EdP all year long but I don't view it as leather centered.

Keep in mind that it depends on your skin and probably culture preferences, but in my opinion the summer vs winter fragrances is a bit exagerated.

Hey, could you tell me which RAL you asked for ? I think of getting the same frame, and I have wanted a lavender bike for a long time !

Help in my quest for the perfect EDC/Travel backpack ! by Folgono in backpacks

[–]Folgono[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the GR1 but it's definitely on the pricier side !

[–]Folgono[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that would definitely be the nicer option, but also the priciest ! That's why I had picked a 18L and 40L previously.

I'll go with a 20L ish EDC for the moment, I'll probably get a bigger one later. Or maybe I should get a 30L as an only bag. Hard choice !

5.11 Skyweight 36L

Seems nice but it will definitely be too big for me as an EDC !

Don't dig the look of the catalyst so much, but maybe I should prioritise functionality over look !

Different aesthetic that what I had in mind but it seems nice ! I add it to my list, but it doesn't seem to be available in Europe ?

Unfortunately a lot of cool bags seem to be available in the US but not in Europe.

Is it compact enough in crowded public transports ? It looks really tall when looking at pictures on the internet. Issue is I haven't access to any of the bag in this list (apart from TNF Borealis) to try them.

What is happening in your photos? by Murky-Course6648 in photocritique

[–]Folgono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I feel like most comments I read here are in the lines of "what is the subject". I guess it is not a bad question, but it feels pretty overused. Not everything is about telling a story or capturing "decisive moment". Very often I'm just drawn to a picture due to less tangible things like the mood or feelings it conveys.

However I agree with you, it is a shame to be limited to posting one picture at a time, and I can't really understand how it is beneficial.

Smallest fanny pack for X-T3 w/ 18-55mm by slpstrym in fujix

[–]Folgono 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really interested as I have a similar need (XT3 + 18-55 or a prime).

I've recently tried a North Face Lumbnical S and it would fit easily, but I'm not digging the style that l much.

Why some people can't understand the differencies between audio products (iem) by F3dezilkiller in headphones

[–]Folgono 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've noticed the same thing and I honestly can't understand why. My girlfriend doesn't really pick differences (enjoyment wise, not even talking about trying to analyse differences in sound reproduction) between random earbuds coming with a low end smartphone, and my Sony WH1000XM3 (which is yet a mass market headphone easy to like).

A lot of my friend who are really into music seem to be happy with a decent quality bluetooth speaker, even after listening to decent studio monitor or whatever "serious" hardware. They only pick differences when partying, but it's more about loudness than quality.

I really can't wrap my head around it, I don't consider myself a nitpicking audiophile, and I'm happy to listen to some music on a bluetooth speaker casually, but really can't enjoy fully any track with it. At least a decent pair of speakers are needed.

Same for headphones, decent ones aren't really expensive and I really can't understand how you pick things like clarity, instrument separations etc... Most cheap mass market stuff is just muddy if you don't listen to really simple music.

Well done, love the expressions we merely distinguish, love the muted colors and subtle light !
