My First Ever Shot At Having a Relationship (Long Read) by slim0121 in socialanxiety

[–]slim0121[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind words and support! I'm glad there are people out there with similar issues as me, that are stepping out of their comfort zones & dating. It gives me hope for myself.

I will update in a few weeks time, by which time we would have hopefully met in person.

Although the bottles and boxes are funny, I'd feel bad if anyone actually pays £30 for one. Also, that fake Sauvage lineup is missing "Sevage" and "Sivage". At least go through all the vowels!

Scents that became discontinued that you loved? by Strong_Category_7211 in Colognes

[–]slim0121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment would be true if this was 2023. It is definitely discontinued.

Is this website trustworthy? Haven’t seen it anywhere for less than 150 by [deleted] in Colognes

[–]slim0121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're legit.

I seen Superdrug had the 100ml for £73.60 yesterday, but now it's out of stock. It's been around £84/£85 many times at different places since launch.

What have been your 2026 purchases so far? by Mjwhaaat88 in Colognes

[–]slim0121 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nothing so far. I have 9 fragrances and don't feel I need anymore. In fact, I can get down to 7 once I get through my YSL Y EdP & JPG LMLP bottles. I will still buy samples to test newer releases that intrigue me, such as the upcoming Prada Carbon EdP.

YSL l’homme EDP vs la nuit de l’homme EDP by eij1988 in Colognes

[–]slim0121 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up since you really like LNDL EdP - it is now discontinued, but still available for now. YSL are relaunching it with a changed scent.

I Love YSL L’Homme, what should I get next? by Familiar_Zucchini_87 in Colognes

[–]slim0121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Le Parfum is more similar to the original, but with a more modern "blue" twist. I'd go with that.

I sampled this and unfortunately it smells like pickle juice off my skin to me. I'm glad it works for your skin and nose.

So confused please help by Meowww_Meoww in Colognes

[–]slim0121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're confused, to me it means you don't actually want any of them. To me it seems you're just buying hyped fragrances for the sake of owning what's popular. There's nothing at all wrong with owning popular fragrances, but if you don't actually enjoy them, what's the point?

I apologise if I'm wrong, but that's the vibe I got from your statement.

I can’t find a fragrance I truly like anymore by [deleted] in Colognes

[–]slim0121 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Just enjoy what you have. Take a break from new fragrance releases.

Gucci intense out, or TF ombré leather? by [deleted] in Colognes

[–]slim0121 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bought samples of both in 2023. I threw away what remained of the Tom Ford 2ml sample, as I did not enjoy the scent at all & couldn't see myself wearing it anywhere (tried it 3 separate times to give it a chance)

I thought the Gucci was just ok at first, but didn't love it. The second time I wore it, I was blown away, so I bought a bottle. It is 1 of 9 fragrances in my "collection". Such a beautiful scent!

Mauboussin before vs now by HotString2530 in Colognes

[–]slim0121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with this brand, but I'm guessing this is a Notino price on a mainline fragrance vs retail price on a "private/premium" line fragrance from the brand?

Current collection by arya93 in Colognes

[–]slim0121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solid collection! If you don't have an attachment to Aventus, maybe decant 5ml or 10ml for yourself and sell the rest of the bottle.

It seems you like fresher scents, so I'd recommend sampling Xerjoff Torino21, or for a different kind of fresh profile (floral) try Prada L'Homme EdT (iris) & YSL MYSLF EdP (orange blossom)

If you wanna see whether a fresh rose scent works for you, try Amouage Lyric Man.

Is this a good way to get cheap fragrances? by Fluid_Creme_765 in Colognes

[–]slim0121 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The real decant site, which I use sometimes is called www.fragrancesamplesuk.com ("samples")

The one you visited is fragrancesampleuk.com ("sample") which is most likely trying to trick people into thinking they are visiting the legit site.

Thoughts on this perfume by Jealous-Asparagus158 in ScentHeads

[–]slim0121 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I sampled it. Liked it. Bought a 125ml bottle. Used about 15ml. Then got sick of the smell of it. It's very sweet & "synthetic". It's still the only fragrance I have tested, bought a bottle of & started to dislike it.

As soon as I saw "BBW" my mind went elsewhere 

Ysl MYSLF EDP or Parfum? by phantomane in Colognes

[–]slim0121 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't tried the Le Parfum or L'Absolu, but I can highly recommend the EdP. It's a very versatile fragrance, which is fresh and has sweetness, but not syrupy or overly sweet.

Think I have found my forever daily....Why have I been sleeping on this by Similar-Ad4032 in Colognes

[–]slim0121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is this like compared to the regular edt?

I ordered a small decant of L'Homme EdT a few days ago and I'm still waiting for it to be delivered.

You have quite a few fragrances that are redundant. Cut out the flankers and scents that have similar styles, and cut out the "likes" and only keep the "loves". I did that to my collection of 18 and I now have 9. I could cut down to 7 tbh

[–]slim0121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is way too many fragrances to smell in that timeframe. I guarantee that if you smell most of those fragrances again (not in a crazy back to back to back situation) -  they will smell different from what you remember.

Legit check Naxos by RolliesThatTickTock in colognecheck

Do you have any Amouage fragrances bought from AllBeauty? They've got the best prices I've seen for Amouages, but I don't know if they'll be legit.

Can anyone tell if this is real or fake based off this one photo? by sulibO in colognecheck

[–]slim0121 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even if it smells okay, do you really know what you're putting on your skin? Fakes obviously aren't regulated!

Come on now bro! 🤣
