Fragrance thread

Thinking about hitting up Macys later today and picking up Acqua di gio parfum. I need something new for the summer.
Ended up getting Profondo

I've not used this site yet but everyone has confirmed it as legit... Its in the UK but with the amount of money you can save on some brands, its probably worth paying the extra money for shipping... You get brands that wouldnt normally be discontinued too and also ex tester/display bottles...

One of my go to sites has a 5ml version. A new site I found has a 10ml version. I will just go with one of those options. Thanks, though
 
I went into a Louis vuitton store for the first time. I went to try their fragrances. I felt like I didn't belong there, lol. I didn't get anything from the store cause I wanted to think about it. I eventually just went on their website and ordered the refill size l'lmmensité. Now i need to get a syringe because from my research, it is not a standard bottle.
 
This came in fast. LV uses a special atomizer with their travel size bottles. I can't decant these like any other bottle. I am waiting for my syringe I purchased.

Going this route, i saved $200. Their travel size with the atomizer (30ml size) is the same price as their 100ml bottle, which is $345. That doesnt make any sense.
Waste of boxes for the cologne.

LV scents aren't really worth their price point for the most part except for MAYBE Afternoon Swim
 
No cologne is worth that much.

Prices have gone crazy... Im contemplating Guerlain's 'Neroli Plein Sud' but the price is ridiculous... I've been eyeing it for a year and its prolly only gonna go up even more...

Its an incredible scent though, by far the best neroli Ive smelt, really clean and elegant, yet also has abit it of a spice kick to it...

I'll defo buy another sample before committing to purchase thats for sure...

See if they have a travel size. Either on their site or a third party site.

I am now at about 13 fragrances. Only 1 is travel size (10ml). I spray something different every day. I find that the travel size ones will last me a while since I rotate. That is all I'm doing for the foreseeable future. None of my bigger bottles are close to empty.

Decanting those bottles with syringe (no needle) worked perfectly. No struggle and no leak. Damn this smells good.

Yeah man once you get to a certain amount, 30mls are usually fine... Especially as like you, I rotate throughout the seasons...

If I really love a fragrance and wear if more regularly than normal, then I'll get a full size (and maybe a back up too)... As houses seem to discontinue and reformulate alot more than they used to...
