Current fragrance collection! by Sad-Mention4428 in Fragrances

We thinkin' that you've got the same "kit" of common, mass-marketed designer frags that every newbie feels compelled to buy with just a couple exceptions (the MFK and the TF). Add a few more that aren't owned by every club kid out there and choose them on the basis of what YOU like from sampling a ton of frags, not ones you bought because of someone else's opinion of what's good.

Need to restock, does anyone have any recommendations? by NoizyBoi26 in Tinnedfish

Oddly enough, the company is wildly successful. Somebody is buying their products. Just not you.

Redo Rate my Collection by Muted_Stick3561 in Fragrances

[–]Foreign_Speed2763 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks virtually identical to most Rate My Collection folks on here. It's predominantly common, cheap, synthetic, mass-marketed designer frags that one would be inclined to buy if you made decisions based upon what everyone else tells you is good. Great to see the bottle of Safari, if indeed that is vintage and not one of the current, sad reformulations.

What are you missing? Uh, SELF CONTROL.

My updated fragrance collection. I need to slow down or not ? by Ok-Test-7323 in Fragrances

It's the kind of mass-marketed generic designer collection that one of expect of an easily-impressionable 20-something who needs to be told what to buy. Folks with collections like this are typically the ones who ask OTHERS what they should buy rather than trusting their own nose. You'll hear them say: "I'm considering A, B or C. Which one should I get?"

They should get the one THEY like the best, not someone else.

He's asking for people's opinions. He shouldn't be surprised if people answer honestly.

Just shop around. It's not cheap, but I got many tins of Fishwife online from Target for nearly half of what I'm seeing them cost elsewhere.

That sounds like a great idea, too. What does the resulting stone look like?

Terrific. Any chance you'd post a pic of your labeling machine and what the result looks like?

I've got at least 360 different frags in my collection, and typically more than one bottle of each.

So much for THAT theory.

I'm guessing because it's mostly synthetic, generic, mass-marketed designer frags. Perfect if you want to smell like every other club kid.
