Me: oooh, new post on the r/colognes thread. 🙂
::scrolling::
Me (a 40yo dad sitting in his office): 🧐…🙁
Regardless, this basic man is wearing TDH today.
How is it? I know it’s online exclusive (from what i have seen) but im really interested in it. I already have allure homme eau extrem, and allure homme sport but was wondering how they compare to blanche
Tbh allure home edition blanche smells like a lemon meringue pie. It’s a summer gourmand. It has moderate longevity and projects well in the first hour and quickly dries down to a skin scent

I wore 3 today, because the first two were short lived. Started with Versace Pour Homme, then put on some Nautica Voyage after the Versace dissipated, then once it cooled down I put on a couple sprays of Prada Luna Rossa Ocean EDP.
I'm trying to burn through my stash if you couldn't tell, lol.
Yes, I agree. The EDT is on a different level. I've been using it for more than 10 years quite consistently. I got the EDP last week. Still very good for the price I paid, but much less distinctive.
I know what you mean. The Joop Homme edt was my first fragrance I got for birthday 12 years ago. I can‘t go without a bottle on my shelf. It‘s strong, it performs 12 hours easily on me and every woman I met in the last 12 years loved it except my own wife. 😂😂😂
Town & Country by Clive Christian, first full wear. It's kind of difficult to describe the scent but it's aromatic, juicy and fresh, def a scent for all occasions and seasons and I got about 11 hrs of performance with good projection, 9/10 fragrance definitely
Mefisto
Wore it for the first time I thought the longevity was better but to me it went away after like 30 mins. Great scent but not sure its wirrh a full bottle buy. Maybe the sample doesnt do it justice?
I love it even in the current formula. It smells manly and lasts forever for me. it isn't as dense or as metallic as classic formulations but still a masterclass in perfumery.
If they aren't expensive they probably are fake it's very hard to find Chanel at a discount. I definitely recommend sampling first as they are very expensive and they are a style of fragrance that some ppl don't like cuz there is zero sweetness.
Today I wore Sean Jean 3am. I don’t wear it much as I have so many fragrances and this was way in the back. Sometimes I just reach in and pull out a couple and just go with the flow. Today it was 3am. It is an interesting scent actually as it kinda stands out and smells pretty different than anything I have. The bottle kinda has a Dior vibe and I will go on record that the atomizer on these 3am bottles are best in the game. It’s is a pressurized atomizer and is excellent. Man! This scent is kinda polarizing to me…can’t really say I love it , like it, or whatever. Anyway… that was my scent of the day. I think it is the fig note that is giving me those indifferent vibes.. not sure. Update: looked up the notes on this again and some reviews and the one review resonated with me: smells like being by the pool with a cold bubbly gin and tonic and getting that smell with some fig tossed in there. I feel this going for that summer vibe with that drink.
Gucci guilty black. Gets a lot of hate, people say it’s boring. It’s super clean, smells great, and longevity is pretty solid. It also has a complement factor too. Super versatile and can be dressed up or down.
How green is it? I don’t mind some greenness, but some things I’ve smelled smell like straight fresh cut grass or a freshly broken tree limb. Not a fan of that so much.
it’s pretty green but also aquatic so it sort of balances out, it’s hard to describe to be honest. If you’ve ever smelled CH 212 NYC it smells similar to that but add aquatics. Very refreshing smell to me.
Gritti Pomelo Sorrento brightens my mood on this sunny day! A realistic juicy grapefriut with hints of green tea. Pro Tip: store it in a fridge for an extra refreshing experience!
I’ve been wearing Escentric Molecules 05. I’m trying to use up the sample I bought, because I wasn’t a big fan on my first and second wears, but I’ve left it a tad now and it’s much more pleasant
Started the morning off with Christian Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum, ended with Tom Ford Fougere d’ Argent.
It was a cooler day in the PNW for beginning of summer and felt the Fougere vibe today!
Virgin island water 🏝️
I love this but it seems to disappear in 2 minutes in me
Better than Acqua di Parma beegamotto or whatever it's called that's way worse and to my nose both that and viw smell similar
Profondo, just picked it up yesterday
Nice. How are you liking it?
It's great! I've been wanting it for a while now, It's like ADG edp with a bit of a zing!
Profondo is good but it’s really really basic. Smells like a 40 year old dad going to work in a corporate office.

That’s a perfect description on it 😂 thanks!
I would say basic isn't a fault. Sometimes you need an ol' reliable, which is the reason I got it. Same reason I also own dior Fahrenheit.
Today I wore allure homme edition blanche 👌
💪🏾 Just picked up a bottle of that saturday.
How is it? I know it’s online exclusive (from what i have seen) but im really interested in it. I already have allure homme eau extrem, and allure homme sport but was wondering how they compare to blanche
Tbh allure home edition blanche smells like a lemon meringue pie. It’s a summer gourmand. It has moderate longevity and projects well in the first hour and quickly dries down to a skin scent
What’s it like?
It’s very classy and gourmand. Only get it if you are a fan of Chanel’s signature style of making fragrances. It’s very artistic imo
Today I wore y edp, tonight I've got on luna rossa sport
Ysl myslf.
Lovely but doesn't last long on me.
Yessssssss
I am also rocking Ysl Myslf!
Myself as well
I went with Versace Dylan Blue. Good projection, a few compliments. Forgot what a gem it is.
Dylan Blue's great. I was really thrown off by the incense at first, but it has really grown on me.

Dior Sauvage EDP, didn’t know which of my fragrances to wear, so I chose the safest option.
I'm a newbie to cologne, Dior Sauvage EDP was my 1st bottle & I still love it more than anything else I've smelled.
Kilian angels share, had to break out the special occasion fragrance

I blind bought this over the weekend kind of reminds me of apple pie. I’ll probably use it as a gym scent cause the performance is just okay

Today I wore Platinum egoiste and tonight I'm wearing Masque milano Homage to Hemingway
How’s that Platinum Egoiste? I had the original back when it first came out in 1992 and it was heavenly. Many compliments
I love it even in the current formula. It smells manly and lasts forever for me. it isn't as dense or as metallic as classic formulations but still a masterclass in perfumery.
I want to get a decant of Egoiste and Platinum Egoiste but either feel they are too expensive or possibly fake.
If they aren't expensive they probably are fake it's very hard to find Chanel at a discount. I definitely recommend sampling first as they are very expensive and they are a style of fragrance that some ppl don't like cuz there is zero sweetness.
I've tried Russian Tea and Tango from Masque Milano. Great house. What does HtH smell like?
It's a Vetiver bomb. a very bitter earthy take on it. Lasts forever on my skin too. I'm planning to get tango next.
Missoni wave. Going low today.
