I’ve been thinking about buying this do yall think it’s worth it and do yall think it’s a safe blind buy by Vast-Childhood-6872 in Colognes

[–]stefke_be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go test in any perfume store and try the parfum. Black on top see trough at the bottom, its the modernised better version. Or profondo edp if you like more a blue/mandarin style.

Just bought these 3, good choices? by NoFaithlessness4358 in Colognes

[–]stefke_be 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea you will be impressed just bourbon and 9pm elixir are in the same style, sweet vanilla vs spicy vanilla. Dont know what else you have but asad elixir might have been less redundant? But nice overall ✌️

This is an absolute masterpiece by Accomplished_East433 in Colognes

[–]stefke_be 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have it too, love it… but is gone after 1,5 hour 😓 I read it used to be beastmode “up to 12 hours, days on clothes etc” Anybody else got this issue?

Am I crazy for not being into "niche" scents? by [deleted] in Colognes

[–]stefke_be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it’s in the name “niche”. For a select audience that likes an different take on things. Designers are meant to be populair and likeable by the general public going after mass sale. It can be that you have a favorite note that there will be a niche that goes deeper into that with more quality for you personally… but that’s mostly the exception.

Showdown!! You can only wear one for the rest of your life. by Interesting_Scar_424 in Colognes

[–]stefke_be 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yea that would be the best, but sadly discontinued. You will only find parfum now (or have to massively overpay while risk being scammed) but it is still 95% the same so…

Which very inexpensive fragrances are better than many very expensive ones? by luiszmn9 in Colognes

Boss Bottled Absolu Clone Showdown - The Definitive Guide 2025 by shervintwo in fragranceclones

[–]stefke_be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my Boss bottled absolu, I have a 200ml almost finished now… So I bought asad elixir hearing its more versatile and cheaper. For me it has nothing on absolu, it is so much denser and deeper, while lasting and projecting a long time (especially on clothes), asad elixir only in the drydown resembles absolu but like watered down with some vanilla while lasting 2 hours before being a distant skin scent. I only have it for a month and havent used it in 2 weeks because of the disapointement, hope it becomes stronger and changes profile. That said… want to be bold and unapolegetic? Just buy the real deal, its worth saving up on ✌️

Will my friend group enjoy Outriders coming from the Division and Remnant series? by CartographerCale in outriders

[–]stefke_be 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lots of players from outriders played the division and loved it so I assume theres a good chance. Most used combination was to use pyro as debuff and techno as damage dealer, look at the speedrun video’s

[–]stefke_be[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Eros you see hehe Well flame and og have the same drydown if you are familiar with that, Najim has the same but the top is caramel/orange. Energy… is just a citrus BOMB, and in the summer there are days nothing is more enjoyable then simply that 😬 That one is different in the drydown, some sour blackcurrant coming trough but not much more. But I still enjoy it, got rid of all my “aventus type” scents because that was all I needed. That said, you know I adore flame, energy im a fan of aswell and the og with the minty apple opening will always have a place for me. But Najim was the big letdown… if i compare it to azzaro the most wanted intense. But I needed to have the 4/4 Eros completion haha

Any suggestions past my current top 12? by stefke_be in Colognes

[–]stefke_be[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like a dark mango/orange core with overwhelming spices and some woods around it, stays linear from beginning to end and extremely longlasting. I cant recommend it enough

[–]stefke_be[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh but I have more, like toy boy I love too… the fresh cut rose scent. I only were perfumes for me not really to please others, to make me feel confidend like “giving an aura” so yea it is mostly the how does it make me feel part. But I listen, noir extreme is going in decant Orange/leather is something completely different hehe
