I dont think i see anny other perfumes then those on social media, sometimes i see xerjoff, or zoologist becouse people think they are "ultra niche" but really they are just the tip of the iceberg.

I come from the metal comunity and if you know about it you know that if you listen to popular metal like slipknot or megadeth (those now beigng jpg, swy and ysl in this)

You get called really mean stuff, and "poser" witch is a word they use for "metal fans" that say listen to metal or anny other music (it's harsher in metal) whithout actually doing it to "fit in".

And i thought automaticly that it would be the same for the fragrance/perfume community, so i stayed away from the popular stuff and went for other designer brands like kenneth cole (mankind hero) so that if someone compliments me or asks what im wearing i could gatekeep it easier, and smell original.

Becouse whith all these popular fragrances on social media like those i mentioned, and everybody wearing the same brands, do they even smell original? There is 7 guys in my class that has jean paul gaultier le male le parfum, becouse some guy on tiktok said it was a pantie dropper🫩 (they wear it daily)

I just want something that is smooth, lavenderXvanilla and lasts for at least 5 hours, you know? Something that would be a signature scent i can wear year around, not have 20+ designer just becouse they are popular, the onlyn thing i want is a signature scent like the description, and a luxury winter fragrance that i use once a year on christmas.

But are these popular designer brands on social media really good, or just overpriced designer slop?

If i where to start a band in his general eria, he would be the guy i invite first.
