Sephora used to have one, it was around 75?

I haven't seen one other than Macy's.

thanks playboy, even though 75 is a bit much for samples, how many samples do you get from Sephora?

Is the site Sephora.com ?

I'm wiped out from Christmas shopping, but I'm getting Invictus Platinum in January, then I'm gonna chill till late Spring/early Summer before I get anymore cologne because I have a nice lil rotation

not gonna lie though that Savauge Elixer smells great too, but I gotta stay disciplined, lol
I suggest you stay out this thread. I tried & failed :mjcry:

If you have an idea of scents that you really want to try, I would recommend buying decants rather than dealing with the randomness of a sample pack.

Let me just say I know this is a stupid question, but I haven't bought cologne in years, that's why I copped some bottles recently to have a nice lil rotation, but what are decants ?

again I know it's a dumb question for a cologne thread, but I'm not an expert on colognes like most of the brehs in this thread

A 3rd party buys the 100 ml bottle, and puts it in 5 ml bottles. Sells it to you.

If you're thinking sample package, these guys have some of the best prices and most of the designer and entry level niche stuff.


I'd suggest for a youngster to get mostly designers.
  • Mont Blanc - Explorer (woody)
  • Dior - Sauvage EDT (shower gel)
  • JPG - Le Male Elixir (sweet)
  • Versace - Eros (apple)
  • Versace - Dylan Blue (sweet)
  • D&G - The One (sweet and really light)
  • D&G - Light Blue Summer Vibes (Grapefruit)
Et Cetera. So if he wants to cop something on his own, it's within his budget.

Its a good question.
A fragrance decant is created by transferring the scent from its original design house bottle into a sterile sample atomizer. Decants allow for consumers to try a variety of genuine fragrances at an affordable price.

A decant will allow you to purchase a small amount of a cologne you are interested in and try it out and an affordable price.

I just looked at my spreadsheet, decants have become the vast majority of my collection.

I need to declutter something serious

My order from Savoir Faire arrived today, and Ascension smells like a nice summer evening! I want to open the top three buttons on my shirt, smoke a peppery cigar, and entertain a few single mothers while we watch the sun set on the lake and listen to jazz.
By the time this one finishes maceration, it is going to be a problem!

I create sorcery with the senses! :blessed:

I layer my fragrances with oils and edible substances.
Sometimes I use organic honey, or maple syrup, etc. as a base.
I also make my own beard moisturizer and a separate skin moisturizer.

Women be going crazy. :wow:


I make my own Febreze in various scents too! My closet and bed smells like peace on Earth!

I grabbed a few of those PHATOIL joints. Should be coming in next week. I'll let you know how they work out.
