brehs lets talk cologne game

[WIA20XX]

Anyone here try the Louis Vuitton fragrances? Are they long lasting?

1) Yes, tried a few
2) Longevity - about average for 3-5 sprays, In my experience

• First few hours - the ones i have (LVers, Afternoon Swim, Imagination, L'Immensity) push out 2-3 feet
• After that - 6 inches or less
• totally gone by 8 hours

Ombre Nomade is "eternal" for me.

Under 75 bux. I live in Hawaii

I just received my order of Ministry Of Gourmand's Coconut Lagoon. On first spray, it smells like a slightly sweeter, more citrus forward Virgin Island Water (it's not an exact clone of VIW, though). I think this one is gonna be a problem when the weather warms up this spring/summer!

Performance?

I just did a google search and found a fragrance outlet in Hawaii, I'm not sure how far you are from this location. Living in Hawaii they are going to overcharge you,

Fragrance Outlet

Check out CVS and Walgreen. The have cologne and sometime they have sales and you can combine your coupons to get a bigger savings.

Good ones? hmmm. I like the idea of the discovery set, but most of the time I don't like the majority of the scents, which is the point...I guess.

Ones I've gotten that had some interesting scents

• Day 3 - Had some really good ones - Filosofia, Ambar Dominicano, La Tacita de Cafe
• Zoologist - one of the most hyped - includes Squid (smells like ink from a pen), which is the most hyped from the house, but also T-Rex which many consider unwearable. (it's a pretty strong woody/smoky joint)
• Akro - had some really good ones - 4/6 - didn't like the Cannabis one, cause I never want to smell like weed.

• Strangers Parfumerie - Prolly a good 3/8 - fairly strong and usually interesting.
• Fulton and Roark - I liked 1 outta 16 - generic designer stuff.
• D'Annam - Vietnam Set - I liked 3/9
• D'Annam - Japan Set - I liked 3/9
