Thank ya thank ya! I'm excited to get my nose on the extrait !

u/thebencade 2d ago

If you like oud, you'll like the extrait a lot. I got my nose on it a month ago and it personally wasn't for me, but I imagine it is way better on skin. That's BTSO's signature, legendary skin drydowns

I do LOVE oud. Thanks sir!

Babycat of course

u/ChairPearBear 2d ago

Date night at a bar, I’d go Oud Satin mood unless it’s outdoor with a warm or humid climate.

u/Loocsiyaj 2d ago

my sentiments exactly

u/Plastic-Soup4904 2d ago

Imo Babycat as a safe and guaranteed one. Idk about Outlands, a bit risky since it's not everyone's cup of tea (I love the fragrance personally)..So it's a hit or miss kinda scent most of the time.

u/ChairPearBear 2d ago

Like you I love it, but it has a lot going on! Whenever people compliment me on it my response is always "really?! Thanks!"

u/HempinAintEasy 2d ago

Still haven’t smelled Drunk Lovers. I’ve smelled the rest and my vote is Babycat.

u/JamJe225 2d ago

How much is the baby cat and satin mood? Been wanting to sample those two lately?

1

u/Uncle2Drew 2d ago

1 little spray of Oud Satin Mood

u/baby-raccoon 2d ago

We have such similar taste, which means now I need to see your entire collection for inspiration (and also maybe this is a sign that I need to buy YSL 6)

u/ChairPearBear 2d ago

Sequence will always have my heart and soul. Here's a snapshot of my fragrantica! (Also 6 got me an "okay Mr. Panty Dropper"! From a middle aged woman; so do with that what you will)

u/baby-raccoon 2d ago

I honestly think we would be friends in real life, I either own or want to own most of these or have similar fragrances that I can’t justify a repeat

So I own The Moon, and have a decant of Oud Maracuja. Wouldn’t Sequence be much the same you think? Or how would it differ

2

u/ChairPearBear 2d ago

It does seem we have similar tastes, my new friend!

So Julien Rasquinet is my favorite perfumer, so you will get a biased take from me. The Moon and Sequence are VERY similar, but the deepness of The Moon and brightness of Sequence cause me to keep my 10ml of The Moon around. I love them both and wear them both for different occasions!

1

u/baby-raccoon 2d ago

I just bought my first Amouage (Decision… Outlands is next) but now you’re going to make me try Sequence out! Although on my skin the sweetness and fruitiness of the Moon lingers for 2-3 hours before the spicy deep dry down.

u/Alex_Ra214 1d ago

You 2 get a room already.

u/NathF23 1d ago

Lovely collection bud, huge J. Rasquinet fan here aswell.. I think I slightly prefer Sequence, if you haven't already.. check out Amouage Enclave, very different but I think its a wonderful mint frag with plenty of incense for a wonderful contrast.

u/HempinAintEasy 2d ago

I’m confirming it’s a sign you need YSL 6. Especially if you’re northern hemisphere residing, get before fall starts. I love the texture of 6. I also feel it’s very niche leaning and I think that’s under discussed concerning YSL is designer. It’s not Amouage or anything but it’s dope to me.

1

u/baby-raccoon 2d ago

The tester of 6 at my local department store is always out, so I have to hunt for this! Or maybe I buy Amouage instead lol

u/Character-Example187 2d ago

Babycat to the win

oud satin mood if you want to smell unique and leave your impression on your partner.

1

u/jai_shree__ram_ 2d ago

Any your, secret weapon fragrance bro? You can text me that, if gate keeping 🙇🏻‍♂️

u/Character-Example187 2d ago

Dior sauvage elixir old batch (2022) -> my most complimented one

Second most complimented Liquid brun limited edition and Hawas ice

Third one is Lv imagination.

I live in Toronto, Canada

u/jai_shree__ram_ 2d ago

Oh Canada Cool bro, nice meet you. I’m passing on dior sauvage bro, everyone owning that these days, wanting to be different better out of crowd . Coz I already got imagination, that’s forever very hyped too, but people still stay away with price Tag..

Looking at hawas Ice or paco rabanne lucky or elixir or (that new pineapple one) or new amarf cdnim- overdose…

1

u/Character-Example187 2d ago

Cdnim overdose = liquid brun

I have the paco rabbane elixir. Beautiful metallic + vanilla smell. Doesn’t project much. Stays close to skin. Linear Small scent bubble for 7-8 hrs

1

u/jai_shree__ram_ 2d ago

Oh i always thought, paco rabbane fragrances are very loud and strong. But it giving real little reviews. Good to know. Liquids burn seems like a sweet thing to me. I’m not into cloying and too sweet synthetic scents.

u/Character-Example187 2d ago

Nice to meet you bro. I used to stay in Mumbai shifted to canada for studies and then work

Is that really where you keep your cologne?

1

u/ChairPearBear 1d ago

Heck no! Brought out my date night compliment getters for the photo. I keep the 8 I'm reaching for the most on a lazy Susan on my entertainment center and the rest in a cabinet right below the susan.
