    If you're looking for compliments alone from women (Most people are not invested enough to notice subtle nuances of unique scents)

    1. Acqua Di Gio
    2. Bleu De Chanel
    3. Allure Homme Sport
    4. Versace Pour Homme
    5. Fierce by Abercrombie (Women in their 20s and early 30's somehow like this thing. It smells like a f*ckboy)
    6. Eternity Aqua
    7. L'eau Dissey
    8. Voyage by Nautica
    9. Most 'Chrome' scents
    10.Most

    With that being said my favorite fragrance of all time out of any I've bought (not sampled) is Original Santal by Creed.
    I didn't include any descriptions of these scents because 1. I'm too f*cking lazy and 2. Fragrantica would give you better descriptions/opinions.

    I forgot to add: I usually don't even use cover scents because the mones usually mess with my scents. I don't care if other people smell my mones. Scottie, your knowledge and experience with scents far exceeds mine. I applaud you for your passion. I was starting to get into the game few years back but lost interest as I got busy with college and needed my money to be prioritized.

      I recently found a new shower gel by Axe, It's called Ace Gold - Oud Wood and Vanilla. It's quite nice. Being an oud lover I was excited when I saw but a bit apprehensive at the same time. But I was pleasantly surprised. I've been searching for a shower gel that suits me for a long time but never could find a good fit. Now I finally have. I picked up the matching deodorant too.

        Nice.

        I am a sucker for Chypres perfumes, but it is hard to find a real one these days because of the ban of the use of Oakmoss in perfumes.

          Well almost everything is synthetic these days anyway. The few fragrances that actually use real extracts and absolutes are extremely expensive.

              Just re upped on Epic Man by Amouage and Versace Pour Homme Oud Noir. I got the Amouage for 75% off retail and the Versace for over 60% off retail.

                aqua di gio is still an all time favorite of mine. also the ORIGINAL joop. I was wearing the reformulated version for a while until a few months ago. it's just not the same.

                  I use a lot of the artisan perfume blends, and usually by season. I love certain ones from LPMP - Occo Ambrosia (Summer), Shelly's Sweet Bottom (Winter), Love Potion Autumn. Also Dark Midnight's Corn Dolly(Autumn), Aurora Borealis & Crone's Woods (All year). Commercial scents Stash by SJP (Autumn), Kate Spade Live Truly Joyful (Summer), Philosophy Pure Grace Summer, even a mix of Chocolate Covered Cherry and Leather both by Demeter (I used to wear that with AD MX135 in the Chocolatini scent all the time when we went out. It was a musician magnet for some reason.) I really don't go for most commercial scents. I find that most of the time, they all smell the same to me. Also, florals don't sit on me well, nor does anything that has Patchouli in it, unless it's tempered with Amber.

                      Juat for some decants of Tom Ford Noir Extreme, Tobacco Oud and Tobacco Oud Intense. Thank you NuTrix . This stuff is amazing. While it's obviously in a level far above your average fragrance I'm still not sure it's worth $500 a bottle. You guys know I'm a fragrance junkie but I'm still not sure I can justify that kind of expense. I could buy a ton of pheros for that kinda money. So the question is which is the worst addiction. Lol

                        Happy to share my obsession, lol.
                        I agree, that they're good, but I will probably only repurchase decants, just because of how intermittently I wear them. But if I really liked something, yeah, it wouldn't matter, I would splurg Hahaha! But if I HAD to choose between fragrance and pheros...well, that's just not something I want to think about atm

                                I usually fall for fragrance with Vanilla or Rose base in it. I recently purchased Lumiere Noire and Ultra Male. Looking to get Amouage Lyric Man next. Do you think scent with slight rose base on a man good, ladies?

                                  Personally I don't like florals. I think they feminize the fragrance. But if you like a rose base you should check out Montale. That guy puts rose in just about everything he makes.

                                    I had Montale on my list long ago. I’m not sure why I crossed it off the list but I believe some reviews about them made me change my mind.

                                    Montale has only one shop here as well but in Phuket, Southern part of the country so maybe some day, I’ll check it out. Thanks.

                                    Oh, I also like Fredric Malle’s. Portrait of a Lady is on my list.

                                      I don't pay any kind to reviews. Places like Basenotes and Fragrantica are rife with snobbish, wanna perfumery experts. I repeatedly find the same reviewers over and over. Some of them hate EVERYTHING and are on a mission to bash them. I love it when they try to tell a perfumer what u should or shouldn't have done. There is always what we call an armchair quarterback for every subject. They supposedly know everything but never actually get in the game.

I repeatedly find the same reviewers over and over. Some of them hate EVERYTHING and are on a mission to bash them. I love it when they try to tell a perfumer what u should or shouldn't have done. There is always what we call an armchair quarterback for every subject. They supposedly know everything but never actually get in the game.
                                        I usually look at day or night, longevity, sillage and just read at least 20 reviews on fragrantica. But I may have dropped Montale from my list because I found something better added to the list. Lumiere Noire for instance.

                                          Been wearing Tom Ford lately..Tobacc Oud was rather singular. Just meh. Noir Extreme was feminine to me. I'm sure it's the rose and jasmine. I despise both. The Tobacco Oud Intense had this nice smoky incense quality.
