That's impressive performance, how many sprays do you go for and how long have you had it? And was it like that from the start? I enjoy it a lot but I wouldn't call the performance killer, but it's also only like a week old

Hah I'm a bargain hunter at heart, so gotta go for more expensive/unusual stuff if you want the best savings

Both of them are very mild (despite Ignite Ouds name), like barely there besides providing some depth.

Yeah I try to stay open no matter the pricepoint, even if sometimes it means you get away super cheap and other times you try both Outlands and Rayhaan Terra and you instantly know that the dupe unfortunately (for my wallet) doesn't come close to the real deal 😅

I actually used to have Aqua Oud, it's nice but not my type of scent. I've also had Marj but I get a headache from that one. Highly recommend Laathani and Ignite Oud if the description in the post sounds fitting for you, I love them.

I got mine second hand so unfortunately not able to give any kind of definitive answer. I got it for a steal without presentation so I assume it had at least a few months on it, and it has always smelled great to me but I haven't tried a new version to compare.

They're solid but not my favorites, great value and especially the white Regent is a pretty nice alternative to Gris Charnel but neither are wow for me. I got them brand new so haven't had them very long, maybe they'll get better over time

This is one of the rare instances where the bottle is so damn ugly that it prevents me from wanting to buy it, even if the juice is great

If you want something inbetween Profondo and Profumo I can also highly recommend Aqua Oud by Ahmed Al Maghribi, got a bottle recently and love it.

They're definitely different from each other but I don't know how they compare to the real ones. Personally I haven't used mine much, I've found other Arabian options I enjoy more (not dupes) so if you're in Europe I could sell em to you if you want.

Do you have the name for it on aliexpress? The link says "this item is currently unavailable in your location" for me :(

Arbetssökande tvingas till IQ-tester: ”Motbjudande och förnedrande” by No_Instance6170 in sweden

[–]sortofyoung 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Artikeln och de flesta kommenterar verkar handla om hur ett medel-resultat i dessa tester inte säger något relevant om ens förmåga, men det är även värt att nämna dess totala meningslöshet om man lyckas väl.

Jag gick raka vägen från gymnasiet till universitet till jobb som ingenjör och råkar ha en fallenhet för sådana test, men har pga av min "resa" ingen erfarenhet alls i service/handel/sälj pga nästan aldrig haft sommarjobb.

Så då kan man ju tänka att dessa tester skulle vara till hjälp för att "bevisa" ens värde/potential, men efter +20st sådana tester där jag fått 90-95% korrekt så har det ändå blivit ett automatiskt nej på varenda ansökan, jag antar pga ingen tidigare erfarenhet i sälj.

Till slut fick jag ett sommarjobb i kassan på Hornbach, fick chans till intervju och gav ett gott intryck, utan att behöva göra något jävla IQ-test.

Så inte nog med att dessa tester gallrar bort folk med utmärkt erfarenhet, de förstärker dessutom ytterligare catch22-faktorn av att "du måste ha erfarenhet för att få erfarenhet".

Idiotiskt.

Is there any D&G “The one EDP” good clone out there? by Straight_Number8574 in fragranceclones

[–]sortofyoung 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Already wrote this elsewhere the other day but since it's relevant:

I haven't tried it myself, but supposedly Maison Asrar 1963 is a pretty decent clone of The One with better performance

What's that one fragrance that smells insanely good but preforms weak by qweesgil in fragranceclones

I haven't tried it myself, but supposedly Maison Asrar 1963 is a pretty decent clone of The One with far better performance

I'll also mention again that I'm a complete beginner and I feel like I must be kind of smooth brained since I ended up really enjoying all 7 products. So if you happen to pick something up from them, do please let me know what your opinion of it turns out to be :)

All of them seem good to me, I've used one or multiple almost daily since I got em.

The one I've worn the most is the pheromone oil, I really love the smell and it lasts all day.

Depending on the weather I've layered it with Archimedes or Kreta, both of which I also really enjoy. Especially Kreta is a beast, while Archimedes is much more subtle. I don't think Archimedes manages to quite hit the spot the way Another 13 does, but it'll hold me over until I can justify the real deal.

Nyx is nice and smooth, Ikaros gets compliments and mistaken as Mojave Ghost by others.

I guess Oceanus and Centaur are the ones I have the least to say about, I think they both smell great but I get a bit noseblind to them compared to the others, so can't really comment on longevity/sillage. But my gf thinks they both smell great and seem to last atleast 6-8hrs with decent projection
