brehs lets talk cologne game

[The Pledge]

Does the fragrance you fellas wear influence your wardrobe or does your wardrobe influence the fragrance you apply?

Nah. The two don’t mingle for me. The outfit is already set in stone. The fragrance really just goes off my mood. More of a confidence booster for me than knowing I smell good for others, if that makes sense.

SOTD - Penhaligon's - Terrible Teddy

Top - Incense
Mid - Leather
Base - Ambroxan

Interesting to say the least.

My first impression is - this definitely smells British.

The incense smells peppery to me, and the leather smells...like bubble gum?

Weather and Occasion..

Freshies for the summer, heavy resins for the winter..
For work prefer something light, or will spray less due to the environment.

Dont think i did on skin testing for my city rhythm samples

City Rhythm Austin...i don't like this tobacco/cognac combo in the opening, but on the dry down smells a little like angel share

The stuff that’s on both are usually cheaper at Decantx, at least the few I looked up.

Also that black owned brand that sell Sin Santo and Sage, Whiskey Rose etc has a sale this week for 25% off

I might finally cop

Mine arrived in the mail and damn all 3 are dope

Sin Santo Sage
SC
Whiskey Rose

Are all good

I highly recommend this brand Savoir Faire

Nice lineup. The OG Tobacco Nuit was underappreciated

SOTD - Imaginary Authors - A Whiff of Wafflecone

This is strong like Kerosene's Unfollowed. It's not the same maple note at all. It's definitely sweet.

I also have a Stroopwafel

And it doesn't smell like that at all.

It's so sweet, so gourmand, that it's kinda not that wearable for me.

I got this last year with the IA Discovery Set and you're right its way too sweet and strong. I haven't yet tried Unfollowed (seriously kind of scared of it) but I hear its almost unwearable.

Cubata

(100ml / 3.3oz Eau de Parfum) Collection: "Parfums de Havane"Olfactory Family: Oriental, WoodyThe smell of the cigar factory is the smell of local life. It is everywhere, in your eyes, in your nose, in your mouth. The aroma of fresh tobacco leaves blends with the spicy smell being let out of the...

I'm getting honey, tobacco, and possibly gasoline.

Officially

Olfactory Notes:

• Top: TOBACCO, LEAVES, BIRCH
• Heart: SPICY NOTES, RUM, HONEY
• Base: AMBER, TONKA BEAN, GUAIAC WOOD

Maybe the gasoline is the Birch or the Guaiac Wood.

Upon opening, not a scrubber, but definitely don't need more than a few mls' of this. I hope this dries down well.

The rest of the Havana collection looks interesting
