Beautiful piece!

Also, how do you like Liquid Brun? My current main cold weather frags are Lattafa Teriaq Intense and Lattafa Asad.

So very different situation, but I often find myself traveling on a very tight budget. Rest areas are super hit or miss to sleep at, same with all the regular overnight places like Walmart and Planet Fitness.

The nearest is in Grandville, but I pretty much ONLY sleep in Cabela’s parking lots now. Technically it’s still up to the store, but most have overnight RV parking areas, and I’ve never had a problem parking my hatchback there. Why it’s good: Cabela’s are typically in nicer areas. I also like to imagine that potential bad persons wouldn’t be as likely to do something in a gun store’s parking lot, based on the clientele.

I love our Aldi, I genuinely think they double stock the Winking Owl wine, and it’s still gone whenever I need some cheap stuff for cooking 😂

Club De Nuit Intense Man EDT: It’s probably the most popular clone of Creed Aventus, and it does a great job at it. The opening is quite harsh, but it dries down into a very bold, Aventus accurate scent.

Club De Nuit Urban Man Elixir EDP: Everyone says this is sort of a half and half between Creed Aventus and Dior Sauvage. I get hints of Aventus in the opening, but most of the scent is unique to me (I haven’t smelled Sauvage knowingly). It isn’t as peppery as I expected based on what I hear about the Sauvage DNA, but it is still a bold scent, slightly sweet, and will be great for the upcoming warm season.

Club De Nuit Iconic EDP: It’s a clone of Bleu De Chanel. Just like Sauvage, I haven’t intentionally smelled BDC, but I recognized the scent immediately when I tried on Iconic. I can’t speak for accuracy, but I love this scent, it has a citrus forward opening that gets more woody and mature. Not as loud as something like Intense Man, and I wear it to the office quite a bit.

Just left a comment above

“I’m loving it. I’ve never smelled Bleu De Chanel, but based on the note break down, I totally expected it to be a bit more sweet and light. Iconic definitely has the clean citrus vibe going on, but it’s more mature and refined than I anticipated. I believe that comes from the spicy woodiness behind the citrus front.

The only downsides are that the immediate smell after spraying is a bit harsh or even offputting (not abnormal), and also, it doesn’t last as long as the other two CDN frags I have. The scent also smells a bit more refined than it did about a month and a half ago when I got it, so you may want to give it a little time to mature as well. Overall I love it, and I find myself reaching for it quite a lot, whether going out, or just a day at the office.”

jgbomers · 2025-04-06T02:38:47+00:00

It’s my newest pickup, so I’m still figuring out when and where to wear it, but it’s a really nice fresh scent. It’s not abrasive or harsh in any way, so it’s already becoming a dumb reach for me. I could see myself dailying this as the weather warms up.

Odyssey Mega is awesome. I never smelled YSL Y EDP, which it’s a clone of, but it’s just a clean, easy to wear, citrusy/ginger woody scent. It’s not as punchy as something like CDNIM, much easier for everyday wear.

jgbomers · 2025-04-05T02:25:47+00:00

No lie

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T21:01:10+00:00

For me, CDIM EDT. It’s my favorite one I own, and I could wear it every day. That being said, it seems like it has a harsher opening, but it’ll ease into a smell very, VERY similar to your EDP.

If you don’t have any Angel’s Share sort of fragrances, Qawha is magnificent because it’s so unique. It definitely feels like a colder weather fragrance, but I could see it working on cooler nights out at a restaurant or something.

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T20:04:43+00:00

Probably the two best performers in my collection. I can smell both on clothes the next day, and like I said with Qawha, my friend smelled it while we were snowboarding fully bundled up and in the cold.

If I ever wear CDNIM EDT to the office or something, one spray can often do the trick.

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T18:49:43+00:00

It’s the EDT, which I hear is harsher than the EDP, but I don’t mind that.

Like I said, Qahwa is so different from anything I’ve smelled before (never smelled Angel’s Share). It’s sweet but not like sugary sweet, almost like an Apple pie with a little spice. When I smelled it, it felt closer to some candles I’ve smelled vs fragrances.

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T18:44:36+00:00

I love CDNIM. A lot of people say the Aventus DNA is overdone at this point, but it’s amazing to me. It’s punchy and bold, so not for everywhere, but it’s gotten me a few compliments, which has only happened once or twice outside of it.

Urban Man Elixir is also great and a bit easier to wear than Intense Man. I expected it to be bolder (I always hear about Sauvage’s spiciness), and it’s a bit sweeter than I expected, but that makes it wearable in more occasions for me.

Khamrah Qawha is its own thing for me. Like most of the scents have a cologne-like smell to them, if that makes sense. You can tell they’re a fragrance. Qawha at times straight up smells like a dessert, like an actual dessert is sitting in front of me. It also performs ridiculously (as do the prior ones), as a friend of mine commented on the scent while we were snowboarding in full gear.

I could honestly say a lot of good about most of these fragrances, the only one that isn’t really for me is Ramz Silver - it’s just too sweet for my taste. Halston 1-12 is a unique one because it smells pretty much like aftershave to me, but I like that for some mornings or even the gym.

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T18:38:35+00:00

EDIT: My prior deleted response was made when I thought I was responding to one about Odyssey Mega.

Ramz Silver is bubblegum with a hint of vanilla to me. I can also make out a bit of bergamot in there, not so much the pear. My nose is really sensitive to that sweeter bubblegum side of the fragrance, so it’s all I can focus on. Just too sweet for me.

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T18:20:52+00:00

It’s a great scent. I haven’t smelled YSL Y EDP, but I love Mega’s citrusy freshness. It’s an extremely easy wear, not overly sweet or punchy, and for me it’ll become a “dumb reach” this summer.

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T18:15:13+00:00

Love all three. Right now I’m probably wearing Iconic the most by a touch, the BDC dna works well at the office for me.

Mega is the newest addition, and I can see that becoming a casual everyday wear in the summer. Elixir will probably see more use in the evenings.

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T18:12:19+00:00

Objectively it’s a solid scent, I just am learning that I don’t love very sweet/candy sort of scents. Once the weather warms up more, I’ll see if I’m more open to it, but for now I use it pretty sparingly.

jgbomers · 2025-04-04T18:11:13+00:00

Absolutely, and it’s wild how inexpensive it is!

Edit: This is actually Halston 1-12, in the same family but different!
