I have a love-hate thing with Justin Copeland’s fragrance videos.

It’s become clear to me that while I respect his content, I don’t actually share his tastes with a lot of fragrances. He posts good stuff but he really seems to love these old man fougere fragrances. And maybe aside from B-612 or maybe Beau de Jour (and I’m iffy on that) I don’t really fukk with that fragrance type. This whole dry, barbershop, bush smelling shyt ain’t for me. I mean, I get a haircut, get a shave…dude I fukkin come home to wash that shyt out. Who the fukk is out here purposely trying to smell like that?

But at the same time I don’t care to get these overly sweet designer fragrances either.

I gotta find some new youtubers or instagrammers.

It feels like autumn is hitting early in NY.
Lately these mornings are like 65 degrees. I’m thinking of pulling out the fall fragrances…. Which is strange for late August

Global warming is weird. DC is mild summer and early fall, meanwhile when I was in Houston in February it was like 80+.

Nathan but fall scents these past 7 days.

are any of you gatekeeping anything? just curious

Personally, I'm free with the recommendations.

Prior to hoarding collecting colognes, I just had 1 or 2 bottles bought by GFs or recommended by Sales ladies. So if I come up on something I like, or pulls broads, I tell yall.

But the stuff I like the most, usually never pulls broads, lol.

Versace Eros, Dylan Blue, Dior Sauvage - chicks love those basic dept store colognes.

On the flip, hoes is never feeling Beaufort London's Rake and Ruin, or D&G The One Luminous Night...

I almost never get compliments on my fragrances.

I think I got comments for wearing Papilefiko, Gentle Fluidity Silver, and maybe 3 or 4 others.

But it’s hard to remember.

Even if I wanted to gate keep fragrances it would be a waste of time. I’ll tell my friends what decants I am trying and they just ignore those messages in our group chat. One friend only cares about Bleu de Chanel EDP. And another guy wears Tom Ford Oud Wood if he even wears anything at all.

Most people don’t seem to care about this stuff beyond whatever is at Macy’s. And they generally get 1-2 bottles at the most.
