Went 0 for 7 with the last pack, this one was better.

I copped another 7 samples, 2 are bottle worthy, the others are dope but idk if they're worth the bread.


Bottle Worthy

Aventus Absolu - It's pretty much OG aventus mixed with Dior Savage Elixir. But you can smell that there's a huge difference in quality between this and elixir. .

Wulong Cha - It's similar to Creed's Silver Mountain Water, but it's arguably better, for half the price.



The Others


Vibrato - Really good scent. It's a feminine leaning version of Tygar or Afternoon Swim. The latter 2 smell better for the same price.


Oceania by Roja - I'm on the fence with this one. It's a solid citrus scent, but I gotta wear it for a full day to see if it's bottle worthy.


Apex by Roja - Its solid, smells like an old school 90s scent. Not my speed, but it's cool.


Ursa - This smells similar to Straight To Heaven by Kilian. But it's something about both that I can't rock with. I smell it and it smells good, then I go to smell it again and it smells like shit.

Burlington 1819 by Roja - It's the same type of tart citrus scent that you get from Terre de Hermes, Perseus by PDM, etc. Pass for me.

Where do you go for your samples?

New addition. They gave me a bunch of samples as well. Think this gonna be my last high price bottle for a while. Really, I only have Burberry hero edp on my list and then im good. This thread makes me spend too much money

I tried the metal flower. Too flowery for me. Smells better on a woman. I think harmonist fragrances are all unisex. They dont have a gender selection on their site.
One thing I will say about the harmonist, their smells last a long time. I spray hypontic fire during the morning, can still smell it at night. Metal fire stayed a long time and that was just an edp.

Metal flower is definitely more for a woman then a man. It's on my wishlist...

Gotcha. Remember you saying you work on their site. I went to that store to buy my layton last month. She gave me a discount.

Can y'all do a collab where we buy from her using a discount link for the site?

Just a thought

It would be supporting two businesses at once

Lol I hate paying full price for anything... I think Jordans are the only thing I pay full price on, otherwise Im using discount codes or copping stuff in sale...

Yeah its the principle too init, even I only get a 10% discount code, I feel so ripped off if I have to pay full price for something!!!

Ten percent just covers the state sales tax for me

I need like 20 percent and free shipping

Been using these shea butter body cremes from a local vendor. He has different scents based on popular fragrances and brands

Got my skin and beard smoove as silk and I have gotten more than a few compliments on the scents

My wife loves them on me too lol she give me that lioness on the prowl look every time I walk by her lol

I'm just getting into the cologne game. Been getting the clones because I'm not dropping much on a single bottle. I fuck with Lattafa/Maison Alhambra pretty heavy right now.

Sooooooo I was perusing Jomashop's father's day sale and saw they had tester bottles of Nishane hundred silent ways for like $85. This has been on my wishlist for about a year...so of course I put it in my chart, but I had do some work to do so I left the window open in my phone to checkout later. Why I come back and it's sold out

I think I'm permanently destined for clone life. I just checked out that site, and just shook my head at some prices, haha. Some of the ones in familiar with, they're lying on the original price. Like $99.99 $45.00... but it's really just a $40 bottle.

 

[loud-ninja]

This is me. Smell it in stores, take a photo, and look online. Only time i pay full price is if I cant get it online. The harmonist and grand soir I couldnt get online

My new additions. Leila Lou is a juicy pear scent. There's a cut grass note in this that gives it some interest and helps it not smell like a cheap fruit body mist from the 90's.

Dulce smells like vanilla ice cream. The only reason I didn't get a full bottle is because I got a lot of vanilla scents in my collection already.

Donna born in Roma green stravaganza has green tea, jasmine, and vanilla. It's very pretty and feminine. I'll get a big bottle if I use this travel size quickly.

I wore a sample of Devotion earlier this week. Smells like lemon pound cake. I had no plans on buying a bottle of this any time soon, but I found this one for $45 at TJ Maxx.
