brehs lets talk cologne game
- Thread starter KOOL-AID
- Start date
Took damn near two weeks but finally got them. I had a third one (Kajal-Alujain) but it leans way too feminine and didn't even take a pic.
African Leather- This shyt doesn't play at all. Straight out the gate spicy cardamom and cumin with what I'm thinking is a eucalyptus kick on the dry down. I don't really get any leather but I don't care. I've never smelled anything like it before and I've been smelling it on the test strip since I got home nonstop. I definitely want a full bottle but that price.....
might just stick with another decant after I'm done with this one.
Vanilla Oud-Opening is saffron, vanilla, oud, and whiskey. The dry down is the star and this turns into a smoky, sweet apple vanilla. The only drawback I hear is that this doesn't last too long on skin. The YT guy Dedrick Hicks spoke highly on this one which is why I tried it. Its really good but for $300 a bottle I want the scent to last more than a few hours.
This crept up on the decant list. Might have to move it up a few spots.
African Leather is in the same class as Hacivat, Aventus, Red Tobacco, Cedrat Boise, Reflection Man, L'Air du Desert Marocain, and Ganymede - niche scents that a serious cat is familiar with.
You might not like em, but you know what people are talking about.
Some of the Zara joints I got recently that I have tested.
ZARA MAGNIFICENT BLACK EDP 100 ML (3.4 FL. OZ).
Hamid Merati-Kashani presents us with a futuristic fragrance where three scent universes collide: mineral, wood, and floral leather. An amber fragrance that reveals aquatic and mineral chords, along with floral notes of violet and jasmine over a leather base wrapped in patchouli, vetiver, and cedar wood. A new “big bang” scent for men looking to push beyond their limits.
*I like this. It has a lite leather and stronger floral and yet a wet accord.

ZARA BOGOSS VIBRANT LEATHER EDP 60 ML (2.03 FL. OZ).
MODERNITY NOTES IMMERSE US IN A TRENDY MOOD
“The first Vibrant Leather with its fruity pineapple touch that gives it modernity, accompanied by cedar notes giving it a touch of woody rejuvenator.” Jérôme Epinette, Vibrant Leather perfumer.
Woody eau de parfum. Fragrance pyramid includes fruit notes of bergamot, lemon, pineapple and grapefruit, patchouli and leather accords
*I dont get much leather. I get the lemon, grapefruit, pineapple mix and a sea accord mix. I like it.
-------------------------
ZARA MEMORABLE AURA EDP 30 ML (1.01 FL. OZ).
A floral bouquet tinged with the juiciness of mango for an explosion of happiness.
*This a mango and vanilla mix.

ZARA FEMME 30 ML (1.0 FL. OZ).
Eau de toilette. Frangipani flower and peony, along with subtle hints of bergamot, open up the fragrance to create a vibrant sensation of surprising juiciness. At the heart, the seductive and powdery facets of orchid and heliotrope blend into the addictive creaminess of a vanilla and tonka bean accord. The velvety base of white musk and warm woody notes gives it a tactile and delicate character, enveloping the senses like an intense embrace.
*This a lite powdery floral and woods edt. Definitely needs to be layered with something else.

Anyone here got that one million royal? I want to know what the difference between that and one million elixir.
All I know is that people love when I wear that le labo vetiver 46

So I've had a few days and watched a number of this guy's videos.
On the positive side, he mentions fragrances that a lot of the mainstream youtubers I've seen don't ever talk about. I don't know if he's super niche but he's more niche than most. He also does a pretty good job of explaining situations where a fragrance will be worn (I think).
On the negative side, this guy might be the GOAT backhanded compliment giver. This dude is fukking elite at lowkey hating popular fragrances. Like, I can admire it on some level, but at the same time it makes me want to hate this motherfukker.
The man made a video of the best 14 Tom Ford fragrances, and Tobacco Vanille didn't even make the list. Dude, go fukk yourself.
Plus, do I really want to listen to a man's opinion when he wifed this:
My G....
If that's your taste in PAWGs, how can I trust your tastes in fragrances?
For real.
You tell me.

Boozy peach and apple. I only bring it out on the coldest days, it smells a little similar to Carlisle by PDM without the spicy/oriental feel.

I tried to ignore the last part out of having some couth but yeah, I can't believe that's who taking breh's fragrance in everyday but ya can't help who ya love right
.
That's mainly what I liked tho, the variety. He def talks about a lot of smell goods that all the other channels don't bother with who just talk about the same ones for the most part.
