So guys my date tonight... 3 sprays straight to heaven? 4? Maybe 5?

Keep in mind I haven't been this excited about a date in years (serious)

for a date that you're excited about? I would wear a really safe cologne 2-3 sprays. Some girls don't even like cologne, you don't wanna phuck up your date by giving her a headache

[Akos1712]

Anybody Amen fan here tried Amen : the taste of fragrance before ? How is it, any different than other in the Amen line ?

I am going to buy one of those oil rings you put on a lamp and buy some of the Hayward knock off Aventus and Tobacco Vanille oils for like 10 bux each

It's awesome. Out of the A*Men line, it's most similar to PH, but it's less sweet & imo more wearable. A pleasant surprise for sure after hearing all the hate on it when it was released.

This. Some women can be extremely sensitive to smells (in good and bad ways). You don't want to put on so much that it will be as if you're desperately screaming : SMELL MEEEE!. You want to put on just enough so that when she'll be close enough to you, she'll pick up the scent and if she likes it enough she won't be able to stop thinking about how much she wants to bury her face in your chest.

Pretty well. worked with her for awhile now, shes pretty blunt. Fortunately shes not attractive so her opinion is invalid.

I've had reactions on both extremes with Pure Malt, no grey areas. Either it was f*cking repulsive or I got sexually harassed. It's a love it or hate it kinda scent.

Wow a complaint about Pure Malt.... I don't even....

I actually got a compliment on Black Afgano today, was not expecting that.

Lol'd. I have A*men but haven't smelled pure malt.

man i've heard this about pure malt too. i don't understand how it can be repulsive. maybe a "meh" to some, but repulsive????? what the fuk man

on a side note YSL La Nuit has for some reason smelled groce to me lately. when i first got it i liked it but it's done a 180 on me.

[Team Punishment]

The dry down of pure malt is nothing short of amazing. would love to combine pure havane's opening with pure malts dry down

[ShamWHOAH]

Yes! I want this. So 3 sprays it is. Maybe 4

Depends on the projection of Straight to Heaven I guess... I'd say 3, but I VERY rarely spray 4 times with anything. I like to be subtle.

[faken204]

I'd do 1 on the neck and one on each wrist. Keep a little sprayer with you incase you need it later on to recharge if you need to!

Ignore her, she's clearly trippin balls

Went to the Creed Boutique. Tested out some stuff:

Acier Aluminum - Loved the opening. Spicy citrus, interesting mix and sexy. But what is this? Tested it on my skin this time and the opening was awesome as usual, but then the spiciness fades away and I get something that smells like... a bathroom at the mall that's been filled with bananas. My father smelled it on me and said "ew that's nasty." Won't be getting this.

Santal Imperial - Opening sucked, but the heart is pretty awesome! Wow... I would love to have this. Only tested on card so not sure about longevity and projection. If I had not ordered Original Santal yet, I would have considered getting this instead assuming the longevity and projection were up to par.

Royal English Leather - So this is what King George III smelled like. Pretty sick when I think about it. Anyway, the opening was strong and did have a bit of a bathroom vibe to it. Seems linear to me; the heart smells like a toned down version of the opening with less bathroom in it. This is a scent for a more mature group. I'm only 20.


But check out the SA's HNNNGGGG handwriting on the Royal English Leather. That's his normal handwriting (I asked him lol). I told him I wanted to make a font out of his handwriting for my computer. He laughed and gave me a sample of Acier Aluminum.



Then I was talking to the SA for a while and he told me this:

Creed will be having (for the first time ever, according to him) a sale on all products in the store. 15% off across the board! Good time to introduce a friend to Creed and split a flacon with him.

Also, 4 or 5 new Creed fragrances will be introduced in the Spring. They will be aqua based, and a "semi-line" of their own of some sort.

They're also getting a few more pieces of Windsor in.

lolololol

best description ever

[Love Pirate]

Guess who just drove dangerously 20 miles out of my way on my lunch break to pick up a six pack of the best beer in the world? It's only on sale today until it runs out. They said there was a huge line before the store opened at 7AM

[Dreyth]

best description ever

lmao i swear its true. reminds me of going to a public bathroom... that soap that they all have. but with banana extract in that soap.

interdasting. can't wait.

Just got a lil sample pack from love pirate in the mail thanks brah!

Inside I found

A taste of heaven by killian
Fierce
Himalaya
Tom ford noir
And one without a label... What was this one brah? I like it.

Upon first sniff of the lot, taste of heaven reminds me of an old lady. Not really diggin it. But I will give it a full wear within the next few days and report back.
Fierce I already have. It's good stuff.
Himalaya....very soapy. Reminds me of dove bar soap. Very clean fresh out of the shower type scent. Not too bad but I don't think I'd ever buy any.
Tom ford noir, I've had a ample from sephora before. I like this stuff.
And the last one without a label... I gotta know what this is poverty or not I want some of it. I really like it.

Thanks again lp I appreciate it

Creed must have some kind of employee-nice-as-fawk-writing program or something. This is the note SB4L got when he ordered from them. Incredible penmanship

Believe it was CH men. Could you call it a sugary/leather smell?

[MrSmellGood]

I hmmm not really, if anything I would say fruity? Hahaha I'm no good at picking up on notes. But I don't at all detect leather, but whatever it is I can't stop smelling my wrist. And the fact that I sprayed himalaya on the pit of my forearm above the same wrist this stuff is on the smells are combining and it is hnnnng
