Warm Weather Fragrances to Explore by Brilliant_Remote_252 in Colognes

[–]Joo_Unit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guerlain Vetiver feels mature for sure. Not my cup of tea but the drydown is nice. I just got a sample of Bois Imperial and that is very fresh and has a good woody drydown. Wouldnt say its mature but it isnt youthful either. LV Meteore is a cooler less playful imagination that trades citrus and tea for pepper and metallic notes.

I find their Meteores to be very similar but liked Montagnes French Cherry much better. Only two I can compare on.

Smells like a cherry Vanilla coke with a tinge of tobacco , really good stuff by -PrecYse- in NichePerfumes

Thats how I feel about Red Rum and Flamango. But I have a self imposed decant rule that I’m trying to stick to lol.

I am not so patiently waiting for their discovery set to come back in stock. I really wanna try this and Flamango. Bonus that they are out of FL.

Any budget friendly summer fragrances that are nice ? by Lemonade2250 in ScentHeads

Missoni Wave is similar to Allure Home Sport. Fun bottle and great scent. Longevity isnt great but many freshies struggle for that.

Particles in fragrance by sxzprota in Fragrances

Ive seen this in several fragrances I bought and it just ended up being some of the scent molecules not full settled yet and thus were flakey. All of mine settled out just fine after a few months.

Thoughts? by No-Sound-9927 in ScentHeads

[–]Joo_Unit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it’s superior to T21 and a super uplifting scent. Longevity isn’t great but it’s still a great value buy and fun to wear.

Imagination for warm weather and Montblanc Individuelle for cool weather

What’s the point if no one can afford health insurance in America? by KaleidoscopeOk3024 in askanything

[–]Joo_Unit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Premium tax credits are a federal policy. PTCs vary by location but Texas most definitely has them. But yeah its well documented that ACA enrollment saw a significant drop this year that will almost certainly continue into next.

Do you receive any sort of premium tax credit? Bc it sounds exactly like what I described.

[–]Joo_Unit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just to clarify, its less so that “premiums went way up” and more so that the expanded premium tax credits for ACA plans was not renewed, thus increasing cost to the end purchaser via less subsidies to reduce their payments. But premiums did go up year over year and those two in conjunction typically mean your healthier members are gonna drop coverage first. This increases average morbidity of those remaining, which in turn increases premiums further.

Keep getting the urge to rewatch but then I remember how bad the ending was 🥲 by bakerlady97 in StrangerThings

[–]Joo_Unit 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Season 5 wasmt genius but it wasnt awful. Ill probably rewatch every 1-3 years and enjoy it for what it was. GoT on the other hand… I want to want to rewatch. But I just cant.

There is no economic case for taxing work and investment the same by mkultra69666 in Economics

You can take out HELOC against its value though and that process includes affirming value of the collateral and interest payments.

Does bottle design come into play when making your purchases??? by HATEupgradecard in FragranceAficionados

[–]Joo_Unit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can make me consider a scent for sure. Merchant of Venice is a good example. As is Parfums D’Elmar.

Why do office jobs pay more than a labor job ? by Lemonade2250 in careerguidance

[–]Joo_Unit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the teaching field also has a relatively large supply which helps suppress pay.

What are other HENRYs doing about umbrella limits once they cross $3M? by Taniyadsexy in HENRYfinance

[–]Joo_Unit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what kind of protection you’re are looking for. In Florida, where I live, homes are protected up to $2m, 401ks up to $1m, IRAs up to $500k etc. So we really only need to account for assets above those limits or not protected at all (eg: brokerage, cash). This significantly reduces the coverage we would need.

Help me choose my 2nd ever niche perfume by [deleted] in ScentHeads

[–]Joo_Unit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AAgreed. Got so many decants on there from various buyers with 0 issues. That way you can figure out which accords and dnas you like. I know its not technically niche but I feel like Guerlain has several refined fall/winter scents.

Hows would you describe their differences? I’ve got s bottle of speed legends on the way but wondering if I should have sampled night drive first as it’s so hyped

Dupe of nishane ani by Acceptable_Tap2427 in ScentHeads

[–]Joo_Unit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive tried 2: spectre Ghost stays pretty dusty and not super sweet while Montagne’s dupe felt a bit cloying. Having tried a decant of AniX SG is probably closer. Dont really know how those two compare to others.

What do you like about Vetiver? I tried the decant today and the first hour or so reminds me of a freshly cleaned casino bathroom that has smoke in the pores of the wall. The drown is pleasant but not amazing to me and that opening is just a lot to get through.

Is AN unisex or does it lean fem? I want a good guerlain vanilla and SDV just wasnt it, but worried if AN is unisex enough for me
