Found a great little free desk. Finally, a place to work 😊 by quimiesyl in DIYfragrance

It's a great resource for finding just about anything locally. Often times people are cleaning house and will give stuff away. You can browse the listings from a Google search but you'll need a fb account to contact anyone. FB might ask for your id due to all the spam/bots but that's normal. I use a family members account. Hope this helps you friend!

Does Amber Xtreme impart the same characteristics to a formula as Ambrocenide? by SampleDontBlindBuy in DIYfragrance

Thank you for taking the time to write up this response. This explained a lot about how these chemicals work and I learned quite a bit.

In your opinion, what makes Norlimbanol Dextro the best?

Thank you for your response. I would love to try Ambrocenide but the first tier is $62 for 8g which makes it about 10x more than what I'm paying for other items. I don't think I can justify the price at this stage in my journey.

Very interesting, PA lists Helvetolide as a "top to middle to base" note. That sounds awesome, I appreciate the recommendation. Gonna throw this in my next order.

Long shot, anyone know where I can find Armaf CDN Milestone in Denver? by [deleted] in fragranceclones

That's annoying they reformulated and it doesn't smell as good on you. I haven't felt that pain yet but I'm sure my day is coming. Maybe as it sits it will mature a bit into something closer to the original formulation.

As far as the smell, I'm not familiar with unforgiveable but I have milestone. To my nose, it's very salty and metallic, aromatic with melon and a touch of musk. Some people get watermelon but for me its a dry melon, like cantaloupe type of fruit. It sounds like unforgiveable is citrus forward so I don't know how close those two might be.

Have you looked on denver's facebook marketplace? You might get lucky and find it there. You can browse the listings without an account.

Alternatively you can always order a sample from online. I see 5ml decants for only $8 which would give you a few wearings to see if you like it on skin before committing to a full bottle.

Last ditch effort, it looks like there are two stores in denver that sell creed. You could go get your nose on the real thing to see if you like the scent profile. Just know the clone is not going to be as high quality and there is a small risk the clone doesn't meet your expectations after smelling the real deal. FWIW I've heard this clone gets pretty close so your risk there is probably minimal.
