Aight, ya'll gonna have to tell me wtf Macerating is and wtf a Atomizer is.

I'm THAT kind of rookie ya'll.
Macerating is letting the fragrance sit for a while after spraying it. They tend to smell better afterwards. Not needed for every fragrance but works a lot for the cheaper middle eastern ones. The atomizer is just the sprayer on the bottle

Was checking out some cologne yesterday in shoppers yesterday

Dunno what I was even doing or thinking about.. anyway so there was a high power fan on behind me

Attempted to test a new one out and the fan blew that shyt in my face like

Thankfully nobody was around to see it happen
Anytime I walk by that store now, this is all I think about

Convinced some security guards watched it by now and were :mjlol:

Over the weekend wore Red Tobacco layered with another Lost Cherry clone and the cherry oil I got.

shyt a combo I like! :ehh:
---------------------------------------------


Also layered these 2 and it came out perfectly powdery!:blessed:
Which don't even make sense considering the notes both have. But shyt legit was powder, musk, ozonic!

I know it's not a winter scent like that, but I'm home and I put on some Prada L'Homme just to use it again.
And my goodness I love this so much.

@WIA20XX I'm completely fine with this fragrance but just out of curiosity, is there another fragrance out there that's like an elevated Prada L'Homme?

I was just wondering what's out there.

Anybody have Saviour Fare-Soul Cafe? Been hearing good things about it just want to know if someone happened to get their nose on it.
I posted in this thread months ago about getting Soul Cafe and Accension.

I wasn't feeling either! They both smell so blended that it's just bland and forgettable to me. Another poster got and liked Soul Cafe tho!

Soul Cafe is one of my go-to scents. Almost all of the Savoir Faire fragrances that I've bought (Soul Cafe, Ascention, The Whiskey Rose, Sin Santo & Sage) are very nice and they perform well. The only one I didn't like too much was Beau Noir, because the eucalyptus smells too much like Vick's Vapor Rub on my skin.
If you're looking for scents that are very unique and won't have you smelling like everybody else, then Savoirfaire.store is a great place to shop.

Elevated? I dunno.

Other people pick up the iris - if that's what you like about it
  • Dior Homme Intense
  • Gentleman EDP (or any of the flankers that aren't Boisee or Reserve Prive)
Per Fragrantica
  • Amouage - Reflection Man, and Reflection Man 45 (don't have either)
  • Narciso Rodriguez - For Him Bleu Noir Parfum - Can't stand this myself, but very popular in the community. Federico Talks Watches really likes it too (which is how I got up on it)

I don't know if it's the iris.

A lot of iris-dominated scents I hear about come across as feminine and cosmetic-like to me. But I don't get that from this Prada.

This might be my go-to office scent for a while. Well one of them.

Reddit is kinda all over the board on soapy - but L'Homme and Acqua di Parma get a lot of mentions.

If you want to keep it really real, listen to this dude. He's fully committed. Elevated...maybe downgraded?



The homie Sebastian always has something to say


And this gets a lot of love, and has a cool name, imo
