    >because its a Chanel
    Also because it’s good quality, smells nice, it’s ok for all weather/situation/ and a mass pleaser.
    SOTD: Yatagan, because I’m a husband and a father, I work from home and modern designer frags are fuken boring.

    I got a bottle of this as a gift. It’s pleasant and easy. It’s the hipster thing to say but from what I understand it’s popular, I’d get turned off going out knowing there are other guys smelling the same.

    I don’t get the hype

    It’s really boring? Just smells like blue fragrance #9342408. Also it’s too dark and moody to be worn in the daytime. Seems like a evening dinner/winter frag at best.

      women will like anything if the guy wearing it is attractive.

      >Also it’s too dark and moody to be worn in the daytime
      no, it’s not. this is why fragheads are insufferable, you make up completely arbitrary shit on the spot and pretend it’s gospel.

        It smells nice objectively. Boring but nice. Nothing dark or moody about it. People will think you smell nice and clean and that’s the extent of it.

        >dark n moody
        >bdc
        why would you even post that

        >bdc advertised as dark and moody
        >ad campaigns are dark and moody
        >dark and moody gaspard uliel as the poster boy

        are you all just in denial or smth? even the bottle is dark and moody

          I’m none of these posters but this advertisement is highly subjective.
          The grading gives off a lot of cooler blues which is evoked by the fragrance. Nothing is pitch black.
          The choice of Starman for the music is rather upbeat too, which is far from moody. You could’ve posted the Timothee Chalamet one and have had a stronger argument.
          Ultimately it’s a matter of smelling the cologne itself, and if you get dark and moody that’s fair but I’d disagree.

            Kek we can just agree to disagree. Tell me how I know you’re coping without saying so. "Dark and moody".

            let’s throw in the chalamet ad spot since it was mentioned

            >he doesn’t realize he’s making everyone cringe because he’s wearing mister dark moody man fragrance while thinking it’s a safe freshie

            Sad! Many such cases!

            Anon you’re making me cringe so much. Any advertising carries room for judgement and subjectivity, same for sense of smell.
            You’re the only one in the thread so far who gets dark and moody from either which is fine but you don’t have to shoehorn it in if that’s not what everybody else smells.

      Chanel obviously agrees with my assessment. Which makes the dark and moody slop you bought

      everyone who’s ever reviewed this frag disagrees with you. Anyone that actually smelled it (citrus top heavy notes) would agree that’s not a dark scent

          This is the description of the eau de parfum from Chanel’s own website. Do us a favor and snip your snout off.

            while still being dark and moody

            the bdctard is trully something else, he uses slop as his shield, and appeal to authority citing corporate marketing as his sword to cut through facts, logic and empiracal evidence.

            lmao face the facts kid.
            it’s popular because it’s an every day scent that can be worn all seasons and any time of the day. it’s a typical blue fragrance.
            the marketing campaign is completely irrelevant to what’s in the actual bottle, unless you’re so much of an NPC you need marketing teams to tell you what is what and can’t determine it yourself lol

            >bdc formulated to be gaspard ulliel’s broody dark night out in the evening
            >NOOO ITS ACTUALLY A TROPICAL DAYTIME FRAGRANCE ITS JUST IS OK

            brain damage

            Maybe it’s darker and moodier than the spongebob fragrance you wore before.

            Your experience is valid as a beginner in the fragrance world.

            Nice bait, but just in case, the vision of the product and company is to take your money by making you feel a certain loyalty to their quality and expertise, most of it is marketing bs that you’re falling for hook, line, and sinker. Smell the fragrances blindly and see what they feel most appropriate for. You’d be surprised by the results, except you might already be too familiar with certain brands that you won’t be able to remove that bias anymore.

            Brother, blue is a color, not a scent. You’re brainwashed to insane levels. Which is fine, enjoy what you enjoy, but don’t expect to be objectively correct.

      Much like with non-white skin, dyed colored hair, voting for Biden, piercings that aren’t on the earlobe, and pro-LGBTQ views, tattoos are an immediate signifier to the world that nothing about you should ever be misconstrued as having any value whatsoever. I am more likely to consider the thoughts, feelings, opinions, and humanity of a stinky homeless person high on fentanyl than I am a person with tattoos.

    It’s a pleasant and inoffensive scent.

    Generally you should ignore what women say about fragrance unless they say it smells bad.

    It’s clean, sweet, inoffensive and above the level of obnoxious Axe-tier teenager fragrances. In a place like America where 90% of men will probably be rocking little more than 3-in-one Old Spice bodywash or deodorant, it’s a decent way to stand out from the pack without being weird.

    How close are the dupes? Im considering getting armaf iconic.
    Im on the fence since i already have Y so another blue seems a bit redundant

    What is the more expensive, niche version of these mass pleasing blue fragrances? For example, Y EDP, BDC, and Sauvage. I want an all arounder mass pleaser I can just throw on that isn’t a macys fragrance every 18 year old got for Holidays.

        I know most of these fragrances and I am not snobby. Most people just dont want to smell like another person, these higher price tags make it so it is unlikely that others share the same scent as you. At the same time you cant be smelling like some weird obscure niche fragrance at all times.

    Versace is much worse imo. It smells like Axe body spray and to make it even worse the only time I’ve ever smelled it is on indians/pakis/arabs
