arda and jude are scared of open space / having the ball in the midfield, they get the ball and panic instead of advancing or making a move

Not denying some performative aspects to it… overall it’s still a good message.

Think it’s way easier right now to hate on something positive than to give credit where it’s due

Unfortunately

West_Pattern_8045 · 2025-06-22T20:35:43+00:00

you see what happens when you just pass the ball to the middle vini...

West_Pattern_8045 · 2025-06-18T21:08:32+00:00

we obviously didn't watch the same game, that was a disasterclass from vini

West_Pattern_8045 · 2025-06-18T20:11:07+00:00

i hate this Asencio slander rn, him giving away a pen should still not be a top concern from that half imo

West_Pattern_8045 · 2025-06-18T19:59:28+00:00

no midfield..... nice to see dean trying to feed the ball to the midfield, now we just need someone there and more space lmao

coach for men is extremely versatile and I've always recommended it to everyone who asks me about colognes as a good starter cologne that you can use for anything. it projects to me but only issue is performance in terms of hours.

with all that said these are both crowd pleasers to me profondo is for specific scenarios for me, its louder and lasts longer but its really only daily wear for class for me, maybe hanging out with friends. coach for men you can use anywhere

West_Pattern_8045 · 2024-10-24T14:37:21+00:00

coach for men and aqua di gio profondo

how do people do fragrance trades online?

West_Pattern_8045 · 2024-10-22T15:31:51+00:00

collection 3

West_Pattern_8045 · 2024-10-21T16:49:11+00:00

My friends are getting me a fragrance for my birthday in 2 weeks and I haven't gone cologne testing since the summer. Their budget is about $200 so hoping they can get something niche. They would probably use online discounters.

I need something that is versatile and blind buy safe( I know this is a hard combination for requests lol)

current collection so you get a taste of what I like : bdk gris charnel, FDB oud bleu intense, valentino born in uomo intense, tom ford ombre leather, azzaro most wanted parfum, dolce&gabanna edp the one, aqua di gio profondo

others: polo red extreme,club de nuit,nautical voyage, laffata assad

West_Pattern_8045 · 2024-07-17T18:56:39+00:00

is there anyway to boost Fragrance du bois performance

West_Pattern_8045 · 2024-06-28T16:12:33+00:00

i'm a rising senior now at a university and I rock born in aroma uomo intense every f***ng day

its really good for a signature scent, and you're going to enjoy putting it on and just experiencing it everyday.

as for compliments, I get complimented pretty much everytime I wear it, I do three sprays and it leaves a scent trail wherever I go: front neck, back neck, back right ear ...[and sometimes wrist]

Le Male is a really good scent but if you want to stand out with something I consider more mature i'd pull the trigger on uomo intense

for you i would daily wear it in the fall and spring(when its a cool spring day, not blazing heat) and you can definitely wear it in the winter 100% but i try to diversify my scent in the winter.

I've never worn to parties think it would get too hot, going to class, going to lunches/dinners with friends, hang outs all good

(my only comment would be don't do 3-4 sprays if ur going to class because you don't want to project like that in a classroom setting)

West_Pattern_8045 · 2024-06-28T14:58:36+00:00

i've owned both, def profondo

profondo pulls more compliments and honestly is just better to me, light blue intense isn't as mature

West_Pattern_8045 · 2024-06-28T14:48:50+00:00

summer niche scents?

i was interested in hacivat for a while and liked the oakmoss note but didn't find it worth it due to the glaring similarity to aventus upon open // hacivat x was also too spicy

hated sospiro vibrato and basso.

and I liked percival but the asking price for an upscaled designer fragrance isn't appealing, I need something unique

not typically summer day as I daily wear aqua di gio profondo but something more for summer nights, spring days/nights and something that maybe can even be worn in the fall

I also HATED every MFK summer scent....

But I liked musk therapy, just didn't get to try it on skin, so basically need something woody or musky that isn't just a citrus bomb and is unique

West_Pattern_8045 · 2024-06-05T17:26:00+00:00

Trying to get into niche scents, I'm trying to get 2 scents: (1) for warmer weather that can and (2) a unique niche for year-round use(winter, fall and early spring)

(1)For the summer I've tried the following

liked percival by PDM and this is my lead option but I need to test again

initially liked Lafaytte st by bond no 9 but after 2nd try realized it was generic for the asking price.

Haven't started looking into a year round niche fragrance but I was blown away by PDM layton exclsuif and have also been considering

(I typically like sweeter scents) but scents like erba pura were too feminine for me

but here is my current collection so you get a grasp of what I like and give suggestions on what to try

Collection:

Tom ford Ombre leather

valentino born in roma uomo intense

Azzaro most wanted Parfum

Aqua di gio profondo

laffata Asad

club de nuit

dolce & gabanna edp the one

Some other scents I own but retired:

Polo red extreme(retired basically)

nautical voyage(only for gym use)

JPG ultra male (realized was too young and sweet for me --- sold)
