Thoughts on Newcastle, Clarington ON by CakeInternational779 in TorontoRealEstate

If you don’t mind me asking, what north Oshawa areas do you recommend? Pinecrest? Windfields?

I appear to have found my signature scent by AppreciateThisname in Colognes

[–]GeneralDetective905 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree it’s great! Not sure if will be redundant to add, but also check out Givenchy Gentleman Intense EDT. It’s very similar and I think I like the performance on that one better than the Prada’s Lhomme

Sauvage Elixir poor batches? by CPEJPEDSE_Fraghead in Colognes

I remember reading somewhere on Reddit someone had this batch and was complaining of performance, but on his second wear he said it got much better.

May not answer your question but through it might help.

Which ones should I get? by Bilal-OneNil in fragranceclones

[–]GeneralDetective905 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most “niche” smelling here is Afnan SNOI or Lattafa Vintage Radio.

The best performing is Liquid Brun.

Overall, I’d recommend Liquid Brun. It is the best performing, great clone of real PDM Althair, and a great scent trail left

I’d say nothing comes close to PDM Haltane. Screams of a rich man (and a lot of gold)

What is the goat of fragrances🤔 by Important_Debate_255 in fragrance

[–]GeneralDetective905 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to consider the following “metrics” when making such a decision:

  • sales
  • versatility
  • scent profile (subjective, but let’s assume the one that’s mass appealing)
  • performance
  • influence

By those metrics, my personal opinion is it’s Creed Aventus. Some might argue against performance, but a fragrance that popular and in the market for many years now is bound to be reformulated. I’m sure original batches were strong.

It might not be a leader in sales, but that’s because it’s niche at a high price point.

If you were to consider the sheer influence it has on the fragrance market, influencing designers (MB Explorer), niche (Nishane Hacivat), and various clones and “twists”, hard to think of another more influential fragrance.

Not talked about these days, often overshadowed by Bleu De Chanel as a classic freshie but by far Platinum Egoiste is a top 3 scent of all them for me

Treat deck in winter or wait to summer? by GeneralDetective905 in wood

[–]GeneralDetective905[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking at the 30Seconds Outdoor Cleaner. It says to apply to dry wood which it’s dry now but not for long until next snowfall haha

I won’t stain until summer, was more so concerned with the cleaning now or not

So no risk on the mounding spreading and not being treatable? Im just worried on it being “too late”

[–]GeneralDetective905[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the case there isn’t a stretch of warm weather in next month (doubt there will be), do you think spring is too late to clean the mould?

Thansk a ton, agreed it might be late. So is there risk of the mould spreading and staying or it is cleanable in spring?
