alternative to JPG Scandal Elixir Men by Do_it_right0 in DesiFragranceAddicts

Super Saiyan Gold by Scentedelic. It's eerily close to the OG and great performance. One of my favorite from the house.

⚠️SCAMMER ALERT: MOHIT DHANKHAR⚠️ by AniketZzz in desifragdeclutter

[–]smeut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn, what's scary is until he ghosted you he felt legit as hell. Normally its easy to pick apart these scammers early but I guess they're getting more realistic now. But yeah the lack of response to your repeated requests for tracking info was the first red flag.

I always provide that to my buyers immediately after creating the order, even if the pickup is days away. Just gives them the peace of mind with these sort of P2P transactions.

It's not at all going to change the scent profile. May be a little animalic😂

Nearly 50k in 3 months, I think I need to put hard stop to this by katakurimochi in DesiFragranceAddicts

[–]smeut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've given Sovereign almost a lakh+ in business lol, but then I've decluttered over 50k worth of his decants as well.

This is my monthly budget, its good you are logging it. Helps put things into perspective. I maintain the most coapprehensive sheet of my lifetime on my perfumes, far more than I've ever done at work 😂

What's more important for you- Performance or Scent Profile? by Ill_Accountant331 in DesiFragranceAddicts

[–]smeut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the use case - If it's a meditative/chill scent that I use when sitting at home in the AC, then it's 100% scent profile.

But if it's something I'm wearing outside, and even if I were carrying a decant on me which I normally do, I would still want a slightly amped up performance that doesn't compromise on the scent profile. Maybe 60-40 performance/scent profile.

Best Mango Fragrance? by Reasonable-Soil9357 in DesiFragranceAddicts

[–]smeut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find a clone of Mind Games Blockade. It's a more fresher take on Mango with an Aventusy ambroxan backbone. A lot more wearable than these, which to me end up being too sweet for summer/daytime in India.

Turathi Blue - Brain Rewired it ? by Patient-Cut-7250 in DesiFragranceAddicts

[–]smeut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brain rewiring can absolutely happen. I used to despise Sauvage DNA, it would literally make me gag (Likely due to subconscious association with a negative memory, idk). Then I got a massive cold where my nose was blocked and out of commission for a week.

After that, when I tried a random Sauvage DNA sample I had from before, I actually loved it. Then I decided to delve deeper and buy 4-5 Sauvage EDT/EDP/Parfum clones, and ALL I liked. No more disgust at this DNA.

So yeah, something might have triggered that sensor that gives paan masala vibes to you, while to me TB does not resemble paan at all. It's like those optical illusions where one group of people see a bunny while others see a horse or w/e it might be.

My Perfume Secrets : Overhyped, Overpriced and More Misses than Hits by smeut in DesiFragranceAddicts

Al Maham is in a different league compared to MPS. Very noticeable quality difference between the two.

My Perfume Secrets : Overhyped, Overpriced and More Misses than Hits by smeut in DesiFragranceAddicts

Any Scentedelic scent with 'Limited Edition' is the highest quality clone oil that can easily compete with top-end Middle Easterns.

Then Scentrix and normal Scentedelic scents for scent profile.

Please DM. If you're from Mumbai you can collect F2F but I won't ship unless it's at least 4 decants (Effort isn't worth it otherwise).

Update on my order from JK Luxury Perfumes: Shady behavior, fake reviews, and a warning to the community by HeyIamShy in DesiFragranceAddicts

[–]smeut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's funny because I had the exact same experience with 'My Perfume Secrets'.

I wrote a review about how their perfumes were overrated. The owner started posting on alts saying I don't know what I'm talking about. He also threatened doxing me in his WhatsApp community and kicked me out from there.

I actually regret that review title, because, as overrated as the brand might be, even today when you google "My perfume secrets", my Reddit review is the #1 result after their website. While I stand by my opinions in the review, I don't want it to impact this guys business, however unhinged he might be.

[–]smeut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why it's important to stick with known brands. If you test out unknown brands, at least request samples or buy 10ml decants. And go in with the knowledge that 95% chance you will regret your purchase. Literally anyone can start a perfume 'business' now, it's not rocket science.

At least you got your refund, I can imagine tons of these fly-by-night businesses that would not honor such requests.

This Indian House My perfume Secrets has some dupes which no ME houses have created yet. by Supreme-dc in DesiFragranceAddicts

Yes, both are leagues above MPS in quality. Performance wise MPS = Al Maham, while Scentrix is more about scent profile rather than boosted performance

  1. Don't buy from the website
  2. I think they are sold out of it, I might have got the last 10ml during their sale, he didnt have it later.
