They've done studies you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.
the longevity says it is poor so I probably won't try it. I do use there EUCALYPTUS & MENTHOL REFRESH SHAVING SOAP with my double edge razor which i use the derby blades with.
Yes t does fade quickly. Its more an aftershave toner but does smell nice.
Well depends on your version of value.
Zara do many clones of more expensive brands, although only seem to last 4 hours or so. Their tobacco collection though seems to last all day on me.
Armaf does a great Creed Aventus clone that can be had at Chemist warehous for ~$50 on special https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/98599/armaf-club-de-…, have it on at the moment and it lasts all day. Just the opening is a bit rough.
Otherwise my go to's for great performance are Dior Sauvage and Paco Rabanne Invictus, i loved 1 million but everyone wore it, both pricey but will last you many years use out of a bottle.
I heard chemist warehouse buy old stock of cologne and resell them, so they are cheap.
In that case it's probably better as with each reformulation the performance tends to be worse
The amount the sell, no its not true.
Versace Pour Homme and Armaf Club De Nuit
I received quite a few compliments when wearing Versace Pour Homme.
Paco Rabanne One Million, Ive got the 200ml
“Great performance”?! Wtf?!
it lasts long. longevity. not the cologne that smell great initially, then disappears in like 30 minutes. which is all the cheap cologne.
Then get EDP over EDT or cologne. It also depends on your body chemistry too.
thank you, i was recommended this also. unfortunately it looks like a lot are EDT and few to choice from EDP. also EDP tends to cost more from what i see.
@Hugh G Rection: EDP costs more because it's more concentrated i.e. will last longer …
@kerfuffle: yup, i got that. any recommendations for edp? what do you use?
@Hugh G Rection: No point asking me what I wear … Unless you're looking for ideas for your female partner?
@kerfuffle: which ones do you like for men? I don't have a female partner, I'm to shy :(
I was hoping for a great cologne to boost my confidence a little.
@Hugh G Rection: Definitely not Dior Sauvage, sorry.
Dolce and Gabbana The One Gentleman is one I liked years ago but like you, I also have expensive taste when it comes to perfumes and also like Tom Ford haha
because (Monster) Performance is apparently a description for perfumes
“Great performance”?! Wtf?!
For most guys, "performance" from a cologne is how much it increases their chances of getting laid.
Armaf stuff is killer for its price
CK Shock is also killer for colder months , lasts all day projects well and smells great
Real men just go natural.
like body odor or soap? soap has a smell, so its still not natural. hmmmmm
lol, those are expensive. value is something that performs like expensive cologne but at a way cheaper price.
Value and smelling nice are like oil and water.
not true, but thanks. plenty of cheaper fragrances that last just as long if not longer.
@Hugh G Rection: Yes, plenty of cheap stuff. But smelling nice you pay for.
Generally just hit up the $10-20 ones at Chemist Warehouse
if you want dirt cheap one million, Dior savage, Invictus clones at chemist warehouse…. have a look at Marc Ecko. 10 each and last 10 hours.
nuts.
hahaha
I think I have to give these a try, great find. thank you.
Just got the sauvage clone pre good.
awesome!!! good on ya
Just ordered the million is it good as well?
@BargainGhost: yeah all of the duplicates are great! the one million one is good and so is the invictus one, i rate the dior and invictus best and one milli lil less
@Bisah1342: Oh, well hopefully it’ll smell nice!
@BargainGhost: defs will! i have it on my desk right now - so cheap i just spray it randomly lol never paying full price again
I feel like you are that guy that when I get in my lift it smells like you have bathed in cologne. Do you happen to wear a thick gold chain?
no sorry, that isn't me, I don't live in a housing commission.
Joop! Homme from Chemist Warehouse. Good bang for buck :)
Joop is toilet spray man. Tangy. I never smelt a good Joop. Nike green is killer.
Toilet spray? The Nike is branded as Eau de Toilette. 😂
The Nike spray smells the same as black xs by oaco robanne. I think it was this 1 check it out in store https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/73208/nike-man-green…
Hey OP what did you end up getting or where did you buy from?
