Natural homemade soap 😁
Axe body spray of course
"Cannabis for men"
I have a tiny bit left of a bottle of cologne from 20 years ago. It was my absolute favorite fragrance and it was discontinued. I'm saving the last few pumps for a special occasion. It was called Mountain Frost from Bath and Body Works.

Maybe I'll use some for my 20th wedding anniversary next year 🥹

Yes, certain chemicals used in colognes and perfumes, particularly synthetic chemicals, can act as endocrine disruptors. These chemicals can interfere with the body's natural hormone balance and potentially cause health problems. Some common examples include phthalates, synthetic musks, and certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Endocrine Disruption:
Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that can interfere with the normal function of the endocrine system, which produces and regulates hormones.
Chemicals in Fragrances:
Many fragrances contain chemicals that mimic or disrupt the body's own hormones, potentially leading to various health issues.
Specific Examples:
Phthalates: These are chemicals used as plasticizers and are commonly found in fragrance products. They can affect thyroid function and reproductive health.
Synthetic Musks: These mimic the natural scent of musk and have been linked to endocrine disruption, allergic reactions, and are even considered possible carcinogens.
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Some VOCs, like formaldehyde, are released from perfumes and other products and can cause short-term and long-term health problems.
Health Concerns:
Endocrine disruption can affect development, behavior, and reproduction. Long-term exposure to endocrine disruptors has been linked to increased risks of cancer, birth defects, and other chronic health problems.
Importance of Awareness:
It's crucial to be aware of the potential risks associated with fragrance chemicals and to consider opting for natural fragrance alternatives when possible.
In my opinion you have to try it … every perfume smells different on the skin
It depends on the man and the situation. Fragrance is like a wardrobe and an opportunity to showcase personal style to one of the senses. I love this topic so much.
Anything in mind to start looking at to begin with?
Cant go wrong with Chanel Bleu or Dior savage. Jazz club is pretty hot too.
I’d do a sampler pack from Sephora where you get an amount off on a full size purchase.
You could buy a small jazz club or even just read about the fragrance and see if it matches your vibe. You can go into Sephora and try stuff on for free. If you want more natural like oils you can go to the health food store and sniff a few. Get a roller and dilute it a bit with a softer oil for skin. Wood or citrus can be fun to play with.
If you are balling on a budget you can get sample sizes and buy dupes.
If you want to drop a bag on the best, bond no 9 has luxury scents down. You’d need to find what suits you tho.
I went to the store to test today. There were like hundreds and after trying like 5 I couldn't smell anything anymore 😅 that's why I'm asking what people like in general so I can try these specifically
I was using attitude by Armani before. I recently rediscovered it and used it a lot. When it was empty I wanted to buy a new bottle but I learned it's not produced anymore. So looking for something new now 😅
Look up the notes and find a fragrance that’s similar.
Yeah it’s best to only smell a few at a time. I’d do just one at a time. Wear it around and let it open up a bit.
You might like this. They came up with some stuff I would've never considered.
I got Sauvage Elixir, and will never get something else. Tried many different fragrances before but none sticked with me like that. Lasts long, has some very specific, recognizable smell.
Have a look at fragantica for a breakdown of notes of stuff you might like

Get yourself down to Liberty's, spray some on some cards and take them home. They will often change dramatically over time.
This is usually insanely cheapnas standard

As a general rule eau de parfum will have a higher concentration than eau de toillete.
Hence last longer. Also cheap often means it doesn't last very long as a scent on you (generally speaking).
Encre noir is an amazing price for what it is.
I would safely recommend black pepper tho. There's also the comme de garcon store in central to try all their range. They have some amazing stuff at a fair price (probably find cheaper prices online tho)
The user reviews on fragantica are often quite helpful, it's an amazing website really.
Plus they have a forum lol
I like Hugo Boss collections, and Dark Blue would be my fav.
Last I checked :
Perfume is for ladies.
Cologne is for men.
