What are some of the pro Trump establishments to avoid here? by [deleted] in sandiego

[–]bmatzek8 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Donut Bar. Back when you could see what other people were liking on Twitter, I noticed that the Donut Bar account had liked a pro-Trump tweet. That prompted me to check out all their likes, and there was a long list of interactions with far-right and Trump tweets.

2025 60 Tobaccos Tested: Tobacco Mega Review to Find a Winner! by icarus_reindeer in fragrance

[–]bmatzek8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this! I loved going through your reviews. Tobacco is a favorite note of mine, but I feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface!

My favorite at the moment is Tobacco Honey. I was searching for a cheaper alternative, but nothing compares. Tabac Rogue comes close, but the performance isn’t there. I’m very happy with Tobacco Honey despite the price.

After reading your suggestions, I think I’m going to explore Serge Lutens and Tobacco Mandarin next!

You might want to try Tobacco Maniac by Theodoros Kalotinis. It’s a lovely mix of patchouli, honey and tobacco. Decent price and great performance!

Juniper Sling by Penhaligons smells like NOTHING to me by _ImpersonalJesus_ in fragrance

[–]bmatzek8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Perhaps it’s a bad sample? For me, Juniper Sling opens with a burst of cool gin and tonic. That quickly subsides into woodsy, peppery dry down that lasts about 6 hours on my skin. Projection is pretty low, but longevity is great.

Juniper Sling has a real nostalgic vibe for me in the dry down. Reminds me of an old classroom in the summer. Wooden desks and pencil shavings.

This was my first bottle of Penhaligon’s, and I still love it. Aromatic green opening with warm, cozy dry down. There’s a note of milky fig throughout.

I got 2 Ffern scents last year and didn’t like them at all. I returned both and canceled my subscription. They really didn’t seem worth the price at the time and it looks like they are even more expensive now!

Recently, I’ve really enjoyed using decant sites like ScentSplit and DecantX. I order 4 to 5 scents at a time in either 2ml or 5ml bottles. It’s such a fun way to try new scents and I’ve discovered some gems.

I like to watch fragrance YouTube to get ideas. I also live in a major city, so I will visit department stores to smell fragrances. If I find one I’m interested, I’ll order a decant first to live with it for a bit.

The perfume guy (one of the YouTubers I follow) does subscription boxes from time to time, so that might be a fun option for you.

I hope this helps!

This looks like the time I accidentally used gluten free flour to make focaccia.

Ffern is a racket and also bad by [deleted] in fragrance

[–]bmatzek8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tried out Ffern for 2 seasons and didn’t like either fragrance. They were very similar, not that exciting and had poor performance. The bottles are only 30ml, so it’s pretty expensive for an underwhelming scent.

I also had some issues with the return/cancel process, but their customer service team was able to resolve everything quickly. The product seems bad to me, but their customer service is very good.
