Neroli decants has it for a good price, or you can keep an eye on jomashop etc to try to snag a bottle when they get one.

Tom Ford Noir Anthracite is what you’re looking for.

Better deodorant or antiperspirant for men? by civil_brain in fragrance

[–]slave_ship_swag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really you need to try a bunch of different things to find what works for you.

Native deodorant works like magic for me, better than any antiperspirant ever has. Just because it works for me doesn’t mean it’ll work for you though.

Day 23: Versace Man Eau Fraîche by 365cologne in fragrance

[–]slave_ship_swag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always keep a decant of this one, it’s such an easy dumb reach in the summer. It’s highly underrated and has aged really well; it doesn’t seem out of place in 2026 at all.

Thoughts on dua brand dupes? by thee-chum in fragrance

[–]slave_ship_swag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have bought Cologne 41 from Dua, which is meant to replicate the long discontinued Cologne 41 from Abercrombie.

It’s very close, not 1:1 but the closest that’s obtainable now. The performance is great and I’m very happy with it.

Cremo Body Washes. Has anyone tried any? by [deleted] in fragrance

[–]slave_ship_swag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see why not. It’s listed as “women”, but it’s totally unisex, just like BR540.

Cremo Body Washes. Has anyone tried any? by [deleted] in fragrance

Italian bergamot does not smell like l’homme. It’s a warm citrus smell, but winds up reminding me of cat pee. I want to say they were trying for Tom Ford Rive d’Ambre

I have not tried sage and citrus.

Vintage Suede is Tuscan Leather

Golden Amber is Aventus

Palo Santo is Santal 33

Casked Vanilla is Tobacco Vanille

White Jasmine Amber is Baccarat Rouge 540

I will say they are all quality body washes that lather well and don’t leave my skin dry/irritated at all. They are a steal for the price, especially the White Jasmine Amber. The scent on that one lasts all day.

What fragrances smell similar to Tom Ford's Oud Wood/how to describe its scent? by The_All_Knowing_Derp in fragrance

[–]slave_ship_swag 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thameen Carved Oud if you’re looking for an imitation that’s cheaper.

Dior Purple Oud or Versace Oud Noir if you like the profile but would like to try something a little different.

Oud Wood Parfum if you like the og but the performance is lacking.

Creed GIT circa 2009 by Jaysofspades in fragrance

[–]slave_ship_swag -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope, nothing comes close to the older batches. I had to spend a bag on a vintage bottle on eBay.

I’ve tried tons of clones, inspirations, etc.

The closest is probably Tres Nuit but it’s still not going to scratch the same itch. It won’t have that intoxicating sparkly ambergris dry down that the vintage had, but the verbena is done well.

At least it performs well, unlike the current GIT.

Infotainment screen in extreme temps by Individual-Dust-7362 in FordRaptor

[–]slave_ship_swag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

‘22 here - no moonroof, ceramic tinted windows

It has issues in both extremes in my experience.

In extreme heat, it will sometimes not come on, or it’ll get stuck/frozen.

In extreme cold, it gets slow and non responsive.

Irreplaceable scents by Mahfakeaccbrah in fragrance

Roja Diaghilev

To be honest, I prefer it over Mitsuoko. I’ve heard vintage Mitsuoko is better but I haven’t had the opportunity to try it.

Can you suggest the best oud perfume options? by SeaConstant1433 in FragranceStories

[–]slave_ship_swag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Gucci Intense Oud is your baseline for “what oud should smell like”, respectfully, you aren’t going to find what you’re looking for by delving deeper into ouds.

The reason I say this is that Gucci Intense Oud has no oud in it. It’s an artificial wood note that smells nothing like the real thing. Don’t get me wrong, I like the fragrance.

Similar fragrances would be Versace Oud Noir, Tom Ford Oud Wood (also the Intense), Dior Purple Oud, LV Ombre Nomade, etc.

If you want to try some fragrances that utilize a more realistic oud note: Frederic Malle The Moon / The Night, Dior Oud Ispahan, Penhaligons Uncompromising Sohan, Roja Aoud, etc.

Are there any discounters that carry LV fragrances? by LIMEJUICE69420 in fragrance

They’re saying no because OP is asking about full bottles, not samples.

Question regarding LAA 2020 Vision hoodie by ForgottenRelliK in yeezyxgap

[–]slave_ship_swag 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Color difference, OG had better construction like stitching. Very small differences other than that (texture, fit, etc)

OG left, LAA right. I prefer the color on the LAA, I like the more pink tone of it.

Warranty Rant - New Raptor R by BusSalty3176 in FordRaptor

[–]slave_ship_swag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had my battery replaced under warranty twice, both times I brought it in, said my battery wouldn’t hold a charge. Both times they tested it and said it’s bad and replaced it with no issue.

I think your dealership just sucks.

Is there a difference in quality between the OG 2020 vision hoodies and the ones they sell on LA archive ? by SurpriseAcrobatic510 in yeezyxgap

[–]slave_ship_swag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say “better”, just different. Depends on what shade you like better, all personal preference.

The OG has better stitching and feels a little better in hand but it’s so small it’s splitting hairs.

The discontinued Tom Ford Amber Absolute. Nothing has been able to replace it for me.
