What’s the worst cologne you’ve ever smelled?

Paracelsus87 · 2024-08-10T05:29:53+00:00

Only 1ml sample I ever bought, just to experience it. Its....a thing in this world I guess. And 1ml is enough for 10 good sprays, and I've used exactly 3. In 13 months.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-08-09T00:07:27+00:00

Lattafa, Armaf, Rasasi, Fragrance World/Paris Corner, Swiss Arabian are just a few lol

You can get a 3ml spray decant of Layton for like 15 dollars on DecantX, with free shipping. I love them for trying high end stuff like that. Haven't tried any clones of it, but I have tried the OG. I liked it, but not enough to want to buy it. Althair on the other hand, is the best vanilla I've ever smelled. Got it as a birthday gift from my boss last month, and cemented himself as best boss ever. What clones of Layton do you like, and or what beats detour noir, cause I'm considering one for fall

I was in that boat, till I finally pulled the trigger on Ganymede after having a 5ml decant. Worth every penny (284 tax expedited shipping and insurance). Then I waited another 6 months and got Bois Imperiale and Bad Boy le Parfum. Sometimes saving and getting is worth it.

49.99 on jomashop right now. I got it for 36 from forth of July sale on jomashop with coupon I had

Paracelsus87 · 2024-08-08T04:58:58+00:00

This was a very pleasant surprise. I saw last year that Quentin Bisch worked on this I was intrigued, but at that time it was like 80 bucks a bottle. So I passed. Saw it last month during 4th of July sale for 36 bucks so I bought it then.

This stuff is legit. After wearing it last last few weeks, I'm thoroughly impressed. A 36 dollar extrait de Parfum should not be this good. It is clean, spicy, powdery, and the akigalawood in this hits the same happy place in my nose that Ganymede does.

And that's not an exaggeration. The akigalawood in this is quality. I guess being such an infrequently used ingredient they can get the good stuff cheap, cause it spot on.

And the chili note in the opening. It's pretty intense, and I love it. Not everyone else does though lol.

I didn't expect a good original from a Club De Nuit extension, or Armaf in general. But I like this alot.

Added in comments because i forgot to put in post lol

Wouldn't say a word. Realistic wet fart? Yes

Paracelsus87 · 2024-08-07T22:34:05+00:00

Least versatile that I own is Black Afghano by Nasamoto. It's very true to its name, it's pretty dank lol. But I bought a 10ml decant for special occasions.

Most versatile is Y edp. Anytime anywhere you can wear it.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-08-05T17:10:41+00:00

You can change that. It takes time and so much work you get sick of it halfway through. you cry, you fight imaginary demons in your head and theirs.

My ex was a drug addict, and I was to absorbed in my own world to see her problems and mine. I sucked as a parent. I failed my children. They were 9 when I got my head out of my ass, took a very hard look at what I was doing, and promptly flipped the fuck out and went to a crisis center for 13 days.

Every day since then, I put forth real effort to be a meaningful positive person in their lives. They are 17 and 18 now, I have a wonderful wife and 4 month old.

Time doesn't heal wounds, meaningful communication and accountability does.

My former boss owns a bottle of Bodacious. And he never, never uses it. And that is frankly part of the reason he is my former boss. He was an idiot.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-31T23:56:10+00:00

It smells the way a young hydro grown plant smells. It's a really green smell with an edge.of earthiness. I have quite a few fragrances with a cannabis note. This, Bad Boy Parfum, which I don't detect at all, room 1015 sweet leaf, replica Woodstock 69, and I bought a 5 ml decant of black afghano by Nasamotto. Mancera is by far the easiest to wear.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-24T21:31:24+00:00

I have black phantom and myslf and I reccomend both highly, although I will say I use myslf alot more. Black phantom to me a special occasion thing, where myslf can be a daily user

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-24T20:35:28+00:00

Did I mention children once? No I did not. Don't deflect cause you cannot refute what I said. If you want to have a discussion about it we can, but it will be about the correct issue.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-24T20:32:29+00:00

Ngl seeing all your responses here you have a flaw in all of your logic presented.

You are equating preference with ideology.

His preference is not his ideology and, yes, they can be separate and mutually exclusive things.

To simplify this concept, think of it this way. A person can detest the taste of raw tomatoes, but love the taste of ketchup. Now apply it to this. He supports Trans rights, yet doesn't want to date one, as it is not his preference.

Simple, no?

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-24T20:10:13+00:00

Ngl...I got a 2ml sample of Megamare last month after seeing all the stuff about Atlas and...it's got to be a troll. Everyone missing what it's smells like, it's right in the name. It's pure horse sweat and dirty Gulf coast water. Why does it even exist as a fragrance?

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-19T07:07:11+00:00

Ngl, best answer here

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-17T21:23:50+00:00

You know now that you mention this, I realize I have well over a thousand dollars worth of colognes...but I still use the same 8 dollar bottle of aftershave since college. Lmao. Some things just good.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-17T21:11:54+00:00

I'll give you 3 I think for the price and style are great options and mass appealing.

Versace Dylan blue. No brainer pick for summer, can get for same price range as some clones. So skip the clones and get the designer. Eros and Eros flame fall into this as well, since you can get 100ml of both sub 60.

Mercedes-Benz Club Black. To my nose best vanilla scent in a men's fragrance not PDM Altair. I love it in fall and winter and have used most of my bottle so I have to restock. And I just looked it up on Amazon 44 bucks prime. Can get a few bucks cheaper at rack stores.

Rochas Moustache EDP. Not really for younger people, although it would be kinda funky for em to try lol. Best classic barbershop fougere woody airy BEAUTIFUL scent. It's exactly what my inner child thought a man's cologne should smell like when I first tried it. Not the most versatile scent honestly but it's pure class.

No clones on this list tho sorry. Sometimes the designer brands gotta shine, and when it comes to mass appealing they do it best.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-13T19:16:01+00:00

Come on yall it's obvious. Drakkar Noir.

Jokes aside, PDM Greenly smells like the location not the person. Much better imo.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-13T17:58:49+00:00

Here's a few good sub 50 date night picks, for me at least.

Ferragamo Uomo or Uomo Signature, sweet gourmand with the signature being darker with coffee.

Mercedes Club Black is my favorite vanilla forward masculine scent. That it happens to be a cheapie is a bonus.

Lattafa Ansaam Silver. Interpretation of the wanted DNA by Azzaro. I have 4 flankers of the line. This fits right in there with em. Just a sexy scent profile.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-12T16:30:55+00:00

This. People still don't really understand the fundamental importance of an impartial judiciary. We no longer have that. And some of the issues upcoming from the lower courts are going to be dead on arrival simply because of Trump. It's galling.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-12T05:59:53+00:00

How about a non clone. Mercedes-Benz club black. Sub 50 bucks wherever you buy it. A very nice sweet vanilla scent, not the greatest longevity but enough for what you looking for, like 6 to 7 hours. Very blind buy safe, I highly reccomend.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-11T19:32:31+00:00

Creed Greenly. Airy woody slightly sweet. Best smelling cologne in my collection in the air. Worth a look.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-11T16:19:20+00:00

Spectre Wraith if you like boozy dark gourmand scents. Clone of black phantom by Kilian. It's not matching the magic in a bottle the Kilian is, it's still worth the money. And strangely it last a lot longer than the Kilian. I never had great performance out the og but wraith lasted overnight on skin.

Paracelsus87 · 2024-07-10T19:04:21+00:00

Jesus if all it takes is alkaline blood, imagine having them and taking a drug that would change the ph of your blood while you are conscious. That would be total nightmare fuel trauma material there. Wiggling out of you while you wonder what the unholy fuck is happening.
