PDM Perseus today, but lately
  1. Burberry Hero EDP - GREAT scent. I can see why this is flying off shelves.
  2. Bleu de Chanel EDT - the Original - Wearing this in 2024, and not the EDP and Parfum, makes me wonder what the fragrance game was like right before it got released. This was a game changer back then, but it's only cool to me.
  3. Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme - Put this on by accident a few days ago. I thought I HATED THIS. I'm just not enthused by it.
Still cold enough to wear most of my cold weather joints. The Oud Affair, Dark Lord, Oud for Greatness, SWY Intensely, etc.
What did you think of Perseus?

I like it. :ehh:
I just wasn't blown away.

If the 75ml bottle ever goes under $150 at discounters, I'd consider it. Not automatic, but I'd think about it.

Definitely liked it. I liked it more than I expected. But I've got 6-7 grapefruit forward scents. Even on serious discount, I don't need another big bottle.

Rockin' dat Elysium Pour Homme today.

Honestly, the performance on my skin is leaving a lot to be desired fr. Nothing but a grapefruit party tbh and a party that doesn't even end up lasting very long smh.
This weak?

I put this as my next fragrancenet subscription. I never smelled a Roja Dove fragrance before.

What situations will you be in?

If you're going to brunch, what kind of scent are you wearing?

Family BBQ, what are you wearing?

The gym? Summer evening dinner...etc.

Some fragrances will fill multiple scenarios. Other fragrances you have something specific in mind.

That's how I try to think about it when I buy stuff right now. But that's just me. Other guys have different ways of thinking.
Looking for like a versatile niche fragrance.

I just got it but B-612 by Nishane.

People would say that Layton by Parfums de Marly isn't niche, but except for the hottest days, it's pretty solid.

Gentle Fluidity Silver by Maison Francis Kurkjian

Burlington 1819 by Roja

None of those are cheap though. Just add whatever people recommend to your list of decants so you can sample first. You might spend like $50 -$70 sampling but it's better than $200 for something you hate and have to sell.

I follow Curly Fragrances on IG...

Her stories today are on some...wait what?

1. That ass looks weird.

2. She's got a flat stomach. But those pushups with the rings...I mean no wonder she has shoulder issues. It's so unnecessary. Just do regular pushups or bench press. :picard:
