This took me several rounds of contemplation, reviewing, and 'whatabouts' for me to get this right. But I'll go with:

Chanel - Allure Homme Sport Eau ExtremeThe any where, any time, any occasion, any season "swiss army" of fragrances. If I had to do 1 for life, this would be it. Performs very well, scent cloud is intoxicating, massively crowd pleasing. This one was an automatic selection, didn't think twice.

Jul et Mad - Stairway to HeavenI wrestled with this and Aqua Sextius which Ialso LOVEbut this is perfect for all warmer months, Aqua Sextius is ideal for the blazing hot ones IMO. Stairway is impossible to describe, but it's so ungodly beautiful it leaves me speechless. If not wearing CAHSEE, I would wear this mid April - mid September.

Valentino - Uomo IntenseThis one was a motherfukker to narrow down. I kept waffling between Herod, Game Time, La Nuit, Le Male Parfum but I just keep coming back to this beauty. It was love at first scent years ago, and it never fails to impress. It ticks all the boxes of what a cool weather fragrance should be. If not wearing CAHSEE, I would wear this mid September - mid March.


Tough to leave out so many good Bond, JPG, Dior, Parfum de Marly, Byredo, ELdO, and Acqua di Parma scents that I've grown to love and wear so often, but I'm going with those 3. (for now)

But really though - it's fantastic. Spring, summer, fall. Playful and a great signature scent. Priced around $90-100'ish it's not going to bankrupt you either.

If I had to get rid of my entire collection and only keep 3 for life, this wouldeasilybe one of the keepers. No question.
It's actually the first bottle I bought a few weeks ago and it's the greatestIt's probably been the best performing and smelling i've had since I first tried it in 2013. I'd sneak some sprays from Macys at the mall HS before dates lmao. Still GOAT.

I just remembered Dame Perfumery exists, ever rebuy BFMV or Dark Horse?

150ish tier: Mancera Aoud Lemon Mint. It's beast mode and fresh with a unique dark twist so it's set for all occasions. I'm getting a bottle soon.
It's true what you say about using expensive from day to day. I guess i'll leave those suggestions for a special occasion. And like Papillo said i'm not new lmao. Just been out of the game for 5 years. Getting samples

Wait, weren't you one of the fellas I split with years ago? Ha! Nope I'm still nursing my 30ml partials of each. Dame released a couple others since then, I dont really care for them nearly as much.

Valentino Uomo would be my choice if I could only have one fragrance. It's so elegant and manly. And so versatile.

Factory has Hacivat (great scent) for $159 for the 100ml bottle. That is pretty killer

https://www.olfactoryfactoryllc.com/...eid=6cb187b4f6


I'll take VUI over VU personally but DHI destroys anything from Valentino.


We should try that picture with Sauvage or BdC or something popular.

None of that popular trash is full bottle worthy, negative!


And no reason to have to choose between VU, VUI, and VUNA..... all are nice in any collection.

Also, Gucci have anything not discontinued that is decent?

Yeah it's annoying for me but I'll give it a pass for being so cheap.

@Ninja maybe if I sampled I'd like the Hacivat but I don't want another Aventoos clone.

When CDNIM took the world by storm and elevated the small company Armaf to legend status, many clone companies began to mimic their DNA. First came companies like Bond #9, Tiziana Terenzi, Nishane, Roja Dove and Montblanc to name a few. Even renowned fragrance house Creed needed to have a piece of that pie by creating a lighter and fresher take on CDNIM.

While all batches of CDNIM have remained with stellar projection and performance, it is said that newer batches have begun to focus more on its fruity aspects, leaving older batches highly revered and sought after for their dark, smoky aromas.

No one knows how many of these vintage bottles remain in the world but it is rumored to be very few. And still, collectors far and wide have been desperately searching the internet and the world for one of the rare chances to witness or even own the coveted "Holy Grail" of fragrance.




So how bout u quit being a pussy hater W1LL.

Yeah man! like in 2016 early 2017ish too. Good times when I was still new and discovering frags. Dark Horse was Alpha as fukkk. I'm actually debating whether getting Black Flower Mexican Vanilla or VUI.. VUI of course being the best one.

Lol Hacivat far superior to Aventus in every way. Way better than CdNIM, too.


Only "Aventus clone" better than Hacivat would be http bond no 9 dot com (Digital Village).

My wife swiped my Black Flower Mexican Vanilla and that's her everyday signature scent. Smells even better on her than me.

VUI is amazing, you'd love it.
