My new favorite scent to wear when I got cat lined up. 

I never messed with any sean john scents but my girl bought me 3 am for our anniversary. I'm really loving this scent. Got a few compliments too.

I didn't like 3am but I love I Am King

Any of you guys ever dabble into fragrance/essential oils and making your own blends? Trying to DIY a reed diffuser to cover up the funk in my bedroom and need some recipe ideas.

you should look up the notes of one of your favorite colognes and try to recreate that. That would be cool to try and make your own version of it

sniffin out a sample of tom ford oud wood, and think i might need a full bottle in my life. seems like it will be a good classy frag for fall especially. anyone got any experience with it? or any feedback at all?

Today I tried out the Bal d'Afrique I got from Extrait de Minimalisme

Can't say I like it too much. Smells like cigar smoke or incense. I know my girl wouldn't be a fan of this fragrance on me lol
I've come to the conclusion I'm a fan of fruit-like scents

My favorites, the past 2 yrs I've been in this thread: Aventus (favorite by far), HTTP, Bleeker Street, Purple Label. Any suggestions along those lines?

 

[glennvagmire]

GIT

Btw UZ is great. Last a long time too. My summer pure malt

Bal Afrique is good too, nice lemon scent.

this seems very backwards to me bda is fruity and aventus, bleecker, and pl all have smokey qualities

Should definitely smell nothing like you described lol.

 

[xdfunk]

Yea bal dafrique is neither cigarlike or incensey. Maybe u gotta give it another try. Or maybe you r just associating it with a peach white owl or something weird like that.

U might not be liking the vetiver in there, if anything.

Aventus has a smokey quality to it, but the recent years batches are more overall fruity.

And bleeker street isnt smokey in the least bit either.

You are probably just more inclined toward very fresh, light scents

Oud Wood is the business. Great for fall/winter. Never smelled an Oud fragrance before this one, but I love that sweet, smoky, woody vibe to it.
It reminds me of a quiet, foggy, coastal forest haha. Only problem I have with it is longevity, but I'd still say this is my favorite Tom Ford.

I wore Aventus for the first time in awhile.. a few full sprays with Molecule 01 and got tons of compliments at work. I kind of forget how much I love it. I'd basically wear it everyday if I didn't like all my other fragrances too 

I just need to bite the bullet on a full bottle, I'll damn sure use all of it.

 

[Extrait de Minimalisme]

no compliments in forever. 

 

[big j 33]

Not in a bragging way, but maybe people are just used to you smelling good and don't say anything about it anymore 

 Two of the people who said something today were women who I haven't worked with for that long, so they're not used to it.

I was introduced to the last woman I dated as "That guy who always smells so good" 

My last complimented scents and I usually wear a few different things each week were Aventus, HTTP, Bal D'Afrique but that was only up close and personal... and that's all I can remember. I think  I was wearing HTTP or maybe Chanel AHS when someone took a deep second whiff of me 

HTTP gets the most "you smell nice/fresh/good" compliments... Aventus gets the most "Jesus Christ you smell amazing" compliments. Or my favorite "You smell so ******* good right now" said by the right person 

 

[thadangerousmind]

I got a couple of compliments on Sunday Cologne today at work. I don't even know if I like it yet. It gives a mineral like citrus vibe but that's the strong vetiver note. I equate vetiver to dirt mainly.

 

[glennvagmire]

Aventus and GIT got me the best compliments.

 

[stork]

even if no one says anything, people still notice.

someone walks by and smells great, and I think that in my head, but i'm not gonna bother some guy to compliment him

 

[xdfunk]

I'm gonna throw another on the chopping block.

even if no one says anything, people still notice.

this is true as well

I remember telling the story here when I was wearing Pure Malt, I had a customer walk by and literally come behind me to sniff me


I didn't get the number

 

[needsomejays]

Might stop wearing anything for like a few weeks can never smell anything I wear :\

 

[Good Ol J.R]

Might stop wearing anything for like a few weeks can never smell anything I wear :\

That's what I had to do lol. Today is my last day of work and decided to go with HTTP. I'm dressed like every NYC Rap lyric ever and I'm getting mad looks.

I'll get back into buying splits once I get settled in my new job and place in the bay. I miss giving y'all my money

Reminds me my ex was going to make Aventus based oil and eventually a candle.
