Can we have a perfume / cologne thread?
What is everyone wearing?
I want to know your secrets. Tell me about your history of scent. |

About 11 months ago I bought a bottle of Chanel Antaeus on my birthday and it propelled an addiction into the history of fragrance.
I've since accumulated about a dozen bottles of various moods. |

I love sweet perfumes and own a ton of cheap ones. Cotton candy, vanilla, cherry, stuff like that. Most of them are pink and brandless. They still smell really good, though.

Yeah, I used to exclusively wear that sort of stuff. Inexpensive, fruity, feminine body mists from Bath & Body Works.

i've been blasting this the past few days https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/...s-900-116.html
it really grows with the summer heat! the rose note is really nuts in high temps. I bought it during the fall thinking it was for that. usually in the summer i go with straight Guerlain Vetiver but it fades so fast or my nose just ignores it. this rose note is really long lasting |

I do have Pink Sugar, actually. I even have the sparkly mists but I exhibit some restraint and don't use it much. I favor summery fragrances and rarely deviate seasonally, but in fall I will get fragrances with apple and brown sugar notes. And I double down with complimentary scented lotions and body butters. I like to smell like a cupcake shop with smooth skin.

I've never seen (or noticed?) Angel, but now that it's on my radar I'll try it. Reading the description it seems like something I would like, depending on how strong the floral notes are. I'm all about some subtle blossom-y goodness but if it gets too much like a straight bouquet I'll get a headache.

i wear both the guys and girls versions
(gender distinctions of perfume didn't exist until like 1960 - total marketing scam) guys' is like coffee and rotten bananas - girls' is more like rotten bananas and cotton candy |

if you like pink sugar you deserve to upgrade to angel. you'll love yourself for it. you can get bottles for like $50.

I like the sound of both, for sure. I can't stand the overly musty kind of cologne that's so popular.

angel is a fougere (tends to smell like food)
i tend to dislike florals too (personally - but i like smelling them) i like chypres that are deep and heavy in the oak moss territory and smell like wet forest floors |

Every dude I know just douses themselves in Axe, Old Spice, or crappy aftershave. You guys are a cut above.
