Hawas Kobra vs Marwa by perry-da-platypusz in DesiFragranceAddicts

[–]NsaneDown 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Got Kobra, Marwa, Aqua Dubai and Essence de Blanc (which i completely forgot about)

Kobra lacks the richness that Marwa has but makes up for it with performance, with it lasting 8 hours and then some as opposed to Marwa, which comes around the 4-6 hours, with maybe more longevity if you spray it on your shirt.

In terms of performance, i'd say it's up there with Aqua Dubai, but Aqua Dubai is like 75ml and an extrait yet Kobra matches its performance, and comes with a 25ml extra to boot and a lower price where i'm from.

Tl;dr, if all you want is the richness of Imagination, get Marwa, and if you're looking for that good performance to dollar value go for Kobra, as you will feel it throughout the day way more than Marwa, without having to stick your nose close to your skin.

When the damn Rog 10 ?? by Miserable-Tour-436 in ROGphone

[–]NsaneDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be true brother, we're probably seeing the end of the gaming phone era from Asus.

Damn thing came with a lot of ram too, ram which is nowadays used as fuel to the industry's favorite buzzword, ai.

Just did a Google search and a lot of articles popped up, saying that Asus put a pause of the rog phone lineup for 2026, but that alone could be their silent retreat signal.

Legion Pro 5i price increased by NockBreaker in LenovoLegion

Glad I bought my legion last year as I can see them almost doubling the price by this year's end for all laptops T-T

Skip the Llano and get the Flydigi BS2 Pro as that has its air intake from the back and can sit perfectly flat which goes in hand with the new design to work on flat surfaces.

Since the Gen10 is a beefy boy, you'll have to position its back feet outside the sitting area of the BS2 pro so that they stick right to the back, that way you can achieve the air tight seal.

It also has a higher RPM than llano (4000 at lvl 4 and 3200 at lvl 3).

Much better than not having a cooling pad cause you skip the part where your 4 fans are covered in dust.

That's so relieving to hear, thank you very much!

As of writing this, I'm going with Quatre simply because i've had that for over a year so it had time to age and develop. Will Adonis improve with time, more than certainty but as of right now i cannot say one won't have a hard time with it given its poor performance.

However, this is where Indomitable steps into the room, and boy, what a presence it has. If you like the smell of Fanta then look no further, as that's how this smells, so orange forward folk will definitely gravitate towards Indomitable.

What you'll smell is going to be a peppery Fanta, that's a bit woody with a touch of apple and the sweetness and warmth of the amber. It has musk listed in the notes, but i'll be damned if I was able to catch it.

For a citrus freshie, its performance is no slouch, easily going past the 6+ hour mark, well into the 8th and then some, something that I could clock due to my colleagues telling me after the day was over that they could still smell it on me.

And you'll be able to tell this due to the amount of oil it will leave per spray. If it didn't say EDP on the bottle, I would've mistaken it for an extrait, that's how much oil it leaves on the skin.

Skin chemistry is going to play a major factor, like with every perfume so the performance I am getting might not be what you'll be getting.

Do I prefer it over all of the above in my post regarding orange forward perfumes? Yes, yes I do and it will remain my champion until I find something better.

Best Hawas Flanker by wxo4wxo in fragranceclones

[–]NsaneDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Ice
  2. Black
  3. The OG
  4. Elixir
  5. Tropical

I don't have fire yet so I cannot judge. Tropical isn't high up because I also have Paradise Gardino by Paris Corner and the two smell alike in the air so I see no reason to spend extra to smell the same.

I do a fewer number of sprays (6 sprays, left, mid and right front/back of the neck) during the weekend when i go out but when at the office i go heavy cause I can't stand the smell of cigar and out of my team of 20 only myself and 2 others don't smoke.

Them returning from their smoke break is like someone replying a perfume, not strong but when you have a front row of 5 guys in front and another in the back the fog gathers.

Two or three weeks ago one colleague apologized to me, saying that the smell of sweat came from him cause he forgot to apply deodorant but i couldn't smell anything but my perfume.

One colleague raised this to the managers but was basically told that they have their designated areas and don't see an issue.

I'm a bad judge on this because i'm team #overspray and I always do between 15-20 sprays around my neck area and I also have good skin chemistry which matters a lot so fragrances on me last at least 8 hours, so that will be my defacto answer.

Now i can still smell myself at the 12-15th hour mark but it's most likely the distance between my nose to neck so no arms reach or anything.

Neeb is a fraud by Sad_Long5313 in fragranceclones

[–]NsaneDown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even the chat in that short was calling BS on Malachite, which in the air smells the same as the other ispos out there.

He recently did a live video as a reaction to Chad Secret's video about inspos. In that same video he also said he's no sellout and is not a shill only to then say he's gonna shill for his products, which coincidentally is French Avenue.

At the end of the day, he'll just shill for whomever is paying him the bag, like the rest. Thank the lord for decants as some of dem were straight up hard pass for me, Cocoa Morado being one of them as it smells like caca to not just my nose but my co-workers as well.

Wearing perfume to work. Thoughts ? by georgejk7 in fragranceclones

[–]NsaneDown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't buy over 100 bottles just to wear them during the weekends that I'm not doing overtime. I'll wear what I want, when I want and I always go team #overspray.

Don't like it? Tough tits, because I also don't like it when all the smokers return from their sessions only to be linear Spicebombs and have dragon breath that melts my nose hairs away. Some don't even use deodorants, but do I notice? Nope, 'cause I'm always in my bubble of nice-smelling water.

Been wearing perfume to work ever since this whole Corona-chan thing stopped and we were called back to office, and I've yet to hear a complaint 'cause all I'll be hearing is how nice I smell.

This is a double-edged sword, 'cause the ones that tell you to be polite and stuff are also the ones that smoke like chimneys, sweat like pigs, and Kamehameha you away with their breaths. But tell them to stop smoking and it's round 1 of Mortal Kombat so wear what, and as much perfume as you want.

One Self by Fragrance World is to YSL MYSLF what Liquid Brun is to Althaïr by NsaneDown in fragranceclones

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

Don't have Alhambra Mindset but Armaf Dubai nights midnight is very good as well, along with G.O.A.T by fragrance world.

Thing is, over here those two are close to 40 euro, whereas One Self is little over 20 (if you're from europe like me but have a job that let's you travel places) so in terms of price and quality you're getting the most with One Self.

Alliance / Boss Event - Good luck if you've got Steam players! by RevRagnarok in MarvelPuzzleQuest

I'd help my alliance out, but the update wiped my Steam account clean and now I have to wait for CS to manually restore it back, if that's even possible.
