Thinking of sampling Le Male and Wonderwood for a casual and night out scent for the colder weather. Anything else I should try? I'm 24 and am willing to spend up to £60 for a large 100ml bottle, though I'd have to love a fragrance to spend that much...

EDP lasts ~6 hours fine. Most peaople won't really need more for a night scent.

Yes, blind bought it. I don't know if it's just me, but I missed out on the rancid smell completely, it lasts about ten seconds and then a citrus bomb drives it out. I would say that you should spray it about 10 times outside in your garden or something when you first buy it though, it has an absolutely disgusting first few sprays, like a gas station.

>hurr durr but they share similar notes

>believing the notes listed are what you actually smell
Notes breakdowns are just a way for perfumers to colloquialize the different chemicals they use to formulate fragrances. If they were to tell us exactly what goes into a frag, no one other then chemists and molecular biologists would understand it.

I've been using Spicebomb for fall and winter and it worked really well for me. Always got compliments with it on.

Now I'm looking for a spring/summer scent that might be a complimentary opposite for it. I tried Spicebomb Fresh and it's just not nearly as good as regular Spicebomb and what I had hoped it would be.

Anyone have anything that might fit what I'm thinking? I don't even know what I'm thinking though desu; I'm new to this whole thing.

When you buy a fragrance new, it comes in a box. I wouldn't say it's more important than the bottle, but it's what you see on a store shelf.

Did anyone had some experiece with zoologist scents? I bought a couple of samples and not only are they almost completely similar to each otherm they all smell like a sugarcandy dissolved in water :/

I laso got an gift sample in the package of Etat Libre Malaise of the 1970s and it's actually kind of nice. Any recommendations from ELDO?
