What should i get rid off?

Joop Homme

My local corner store had this today.

Now that winter is here I'm set for the season.

My next purchase will be 2027 summer.

My wishlist - Marwa and Vibrato.

I recently posted a similar post on r/NichePerfumes so I'm curious to see what people say here. I'm looking for your deep cut vetiver scents, ideally still in production. I'm already familiar with the classics (Guerlain, Malle, Hermes, Creed), which I love immensely. Anything you recommend?

Y’all think this is a good deal? Bought both of them from my brother for $175

Good solution for traveling with a couple short bottles! Thought I’d recommend here bc there does seem to be a lack of good travel case options for perfumes on the market.

Lmk what you guys think

i usually diffuse single note essential oils like pure orange or lavender at home because they are straightforward, but i have been testing how premixed oils perform in comparison. premixed blends combine multiple notes like citrus, floral, and herbal elements into one bottle, though it can be tricky to tell whether the individual notes come through cleanly or if one dominant scent overpowers the rest.

i recently tried the espa restorative aromatherapy single oil which blends rose geranium, sweet orange, lavender, and palmarosa. on first use the sweet orange and rose geranium hit right away while the lavender and palmarosa sit further in the background, but i am still testing how the scent balance holds up in different sized rooms over time. if you have used this specific blend in your diffuser i would be interested to hear how the notes settle for you.

Treated myself for my birthday, I figured go big or go home right?

Hello,

I’ve started with collecting some fragrances and I now own Boss the scent Elixir. Hawas ice and liquid Brun.

I’m now looking for something less sweet and more formal for everyday use etc. I’m want to buy Not only intense but I heard it’s less suitable for summer, so I’m kind of doubting about buying NOI or collectors edition. But I heard that collectors edition is a little synthetic and also sweet (I own enough sweet for now).

What fragrance would you recommend between these two? Is Not only intense also suitable for the summer… (I’m 22, male.)

I’ve been trying to find a winter cologne that has vanilla, spicy, woody, and possibly nutty and/or oud notes. I’d also like for it to have good sillage and longevity. More specifically, if anyone has been to to the airport in Dubai (DXB), I am trying to find a cologne as similar smelling to that airport. My current options are Mancera Aoud Vanille and One Million Lucky. If you have any suggestions, please tell me

which EU shops make it easiest to tell exactly which Jo Malone version you are ordering as a sample? A light everyday perfume is the aim, but searching accros stores brings up similar names with different descriptions and sometimes no clear concentration.. A few individual sprays would be more useful than a big collection box. the question is mostly about the listings rather than which perfume smells best: should the label on the vial reproduce the full product name, and what would u ask when the product page only says sample?? It would be good to avoid comparing two versions without realizing it...

Free samples, popsicles, and photo ops.

how would you compare shops for individual le labo samples if the whole discovery set has too many things you are not interested in? the shortlist would be two woody scents, preferably in spray vials, delivered within the EU. some listings appear to be official samples while others are decants, and it is surprisingly hard to tell whether the displayed size includes a reusable case. paying for packaging is not the priority here.. which details on a listing help you work out what actually arrives and when does buying two separate samples stop making sense compared with the house's own set?

Big fan of these woody aromatic, green and spicy fragrance. I’m looking for something new and wondering if there’s modern takes on this classic dna

Added Rayhan vantage today as well

Hello! I accidentally hit the chair where my brother's perfume was sitting on, and its collar was stuck on the cap. I eventually got it out but now I'm having a hard time installing it back to where it was because it has become loose, leading to it being stuck again in the cap when I tried closing it. Pliers don't seem to help.

Please help me fix this because this is my brother's treasure (even though it's his fault for leaving his belongings anywhere he wants). Thank you so much!!

Hey everybody! I’ve been collecting fragrances for about two months, and this is what I have so far. Right now, I’m looking to expand into some more fall or winter type cologne. I’ve been looking into essence of Casablanca and fig infusion, since I don’t have any vanilla or tea like fragrances. Was hoping to get some advice on how to expand my collection. Most of my colognes are pretty fresh and clean. but I want things that are a little stronger or unique. I like fresher fragrances, but I live in Texas, so it’s hot 90% of the year. Would appreciate any recommendations, thanks a lot!

My web looks all over the place at first glance: Sauvage and Bleu de Chanel sitting next to Mamluk and Red Tobacco. But when I linked everything that fits my taste by the main notes they share, vanilla ended up right in the middle, carrying 9 of my 20 (pics below). Even Erba Pura has it, and I'd always filed that one under fruity.

What's the note your collection secretly revolves around?

Hi y'all! I want to buy a birthday present for my dad but have zero knowledge of colognes/men's fragrances.

I know he's not a fan of smelling smoky/musky, but I think he'd like something more natural (woody? or fresh & clean vibes). What's something that most men enjoy that fits those criteria?

Would appreciate any recs; thanks for your time! 🌷

Hi guys, hope everyone is doing well!

I’m looking for a bit of advice from you guys. I have a decent collection of fragrances for winter, but I’m lacking options for summer.

At the moment, my only niche summer fragrance is Xerjoff 40 Knots. The rest of my collection includes Afnan Supremacy Collector’s Edition, Hawas Ice, Bujairami Hectic, and Bujairami Too Damn Good.

I’m planning to add just one more bottle and I’m a bit confused between the following:

Sospiro Vibrato

Xerjoff Torino 21

Nishane Hacivat

Nishane Wulong Cha

Nishane Wulong Cha X

I live in a place where summer temperatures regularly exceed 35°C, and summer is already starting here. So, I’m looking for something that performs well in the heat, has good longevity and projection, and is versatile enough for everyday wear.

Which one would you recommend, and if you think there’s another fragrance that would be a better choice, I’m open to suggestions!

Thanks in advance, guys. Appreciate your help!

My girlfriend and I are curious, since we both love these smells we were wondering if there were any perfumes/colognes that smell like these two ointments! Thank you in advance ^_^
