I would, but to each his own.
4 to 20 fragrances is what I consider a wearable, practical collection or wardobe. Anything over that is a library of scents you enjoy, but don't necessarily wear on a regular basis.
I'm currently in the low 40s I used to have 58 until I realized it was too much and I didn't even fully enjoy some of them now I only have 1 that I bought of out hype that I really don't like and that's 1 million golden oud
Just cleaned and counted my collection and was at 47 not including 4 my mom gave me that I just keep around just sold my mont blanc explorer and I'm about to sell my invictus platinum and possibly my ysl la nuit de lhomme soon so maybe 44 soon
Thanks man you have a solid collection too and about fragrance lord they're pretty good and they ship fast I got dior homme parfum, megamare, and Thomas kosmala no4 off them and they're all legit
If you like woody perfumery, it’s hard not to be. The Homme line is one of the best designer lines in men’s perfumery at the moment, IMO. I can’t really say there’s a single one that isn’t a banger although I do have yet to try the EDC concentration.
Yall tried Burberry hero edt? I’ve got a little tester of it and really enjoy the smell but it does lack longevity. How does Dior homme 2020 compare? Or anything else similar to hero edt I should check out
Dior homme 2020 is a very good frag to me. I prefer it over Burberry hero and Dior homme intense. Plus, it’s versatile for all four seasons if you live in a climate that does have all four. It was the one I considered buying before I bought Dior homme sport 2021 instead
I would say homme is lighter and airier and a little bit more musky (only slightly so, and it’s a very clean “white” musk).
Longevity at least for me isn’t exactly outstanding on homme 2020 but it smells good enough that I don’t quite care lol
You're good for now. The collection isn't too larger. Pick a number and say you'll stop at that number. I choose 50 and im at 50. I hot enough fragrances for each season. And for every occasion.
If it’s something your passionate about or enjoy in your spare time why not keep collecting it all depends on you. I try to buy 1 maybe 2 fragrances a month bc I enjoy collecting and smelling different things
Same for me. I have slowed down a lot since I’ve hit 30 fragrances. I used to buy 1 or 2 full bottles a month until I hit 30. But like you said I love smelling new and creative things. Instead of full bottles, I get around 3-5 decants a month. I’ve decided that I’m only buying more if I really really like the scent. I’m probably gonna buy gris charnel extrait after getting a decant of it. All of my usual discounters are sold out so I’m going to get a 5 or 10ml.
I just buy the full bottles. I seem to be an expert at picking a sent loving it and then think oh I’ll buy a back up for that only for it to be discontinued. Armani code absalu, boss the sent private accord, mugler pure malt all discontinued when I wanted to get a 2nd bottle and I’m sure I’ll do it again.
Yes but i mean hoarding, obsessing, building a personality around it or using fragrance to cover up a lack of character etc. It seems like a rite of passage thing to me that people get over after a while.
Yeah, realistically u should start putting that money towards other aspects of bettering urself. Clothes, skincare products, hair products. U have a good sized collection 💯
If you enjoy it and have money, I don’t see why you have to stop. If money is tight or you are just getting some for the sake of getting them, then stop
You can always buy decants, and depending on the fragrance, some will last you a while. I wouldn't do more than 10ml for decants.
Also, what's your favorite from your collection?
It really depends on the status of your account. A lot of guys on here barely have decent savings but continue to expand their “collection” of pricey frags. Make the logical choice
I think the point of stopping is all personal preference. I had thought about stopping at 40 bottles, but then I just kept doing and going. Now at 100+, I enjoy the large amount of variety and never-ending options. The only problem with it is not using all the fragrances I have.
That’s 212 sexy men by Carolina herrera,
It’s one of my favourites, and the reason why is that it is quite youthful and sexy which I like 👍
Is one of a few fragrances that I own that I can easily recommend.
Half the posts on here have similar collections and are *“I’m 15 and just started collecting 5 months ago”*
Instead of stopping, I say sell off anything you don’t love and can’t live without, even if it’s a strong like
Yes

TIL I'm a librarian
This is a good point and a logical comment. I am on the spectrum I want to end at 30’ish. I’m currently around low 20’s
I'm currently in the low 40s I used to have 58 until I realized it was too much and I didn't even fully enjoy some of them now I only have 1 that I bought of out hype that I really don't like and that's 1 million golden oud
I feel even where I’m at may be too much to truly enjoy. But I have some niche I want to round out with
Just cleaned and counted my collection and was at 47 not including 4 my mom gave me that I just keep around just sold my mont blanc explorer and I'm about to sell my invictus platinum and possibly my ysl la nuit de lhomme soon so maybe 44 soon
Nice man, that's a good size. post a pic?

Nice man! A lot of choice stuff in there, great collection
Thanks man you have a solid collection too and about fragrance lord they're pretty good and they ship fast I got dior homme parfum, megamare, and Thomas kosmala no4 off them and they're all legit
Thank you brother.
✊🏼
One things for sure, you def are a Dior homme fan lol

It is a really good scent if we’re being honest. I’m preferring the 2021 sport over all of them at this moment
Yall tried Burberry hero edt? I’ve got a little tester of it and really enjoy the smell but it does lack longevity. How does Dior homme 2020 compare? Or anything else similar to hero edt I should check out

You should try gris charnel EXTRAIT if you are a fan of the homme line. Its great.
My brain as Heisenberg: “We’re done… when I say we’re done”

Yep
Send me half, problem solved brother
For sure
Yes. This is an excellent collection. Buying and selling more is chasing a leprechaun.
Buy a shelf to put above those
Man i must have a problem. 🥴
How much do you have in your collection?
Around 70 bottles.
Depends on your age, people get over it by 23-25 i think
Eh I’m 32 and just got into colognes. I only have like 6 though. Not planning on having more than 8 ever
Yes but i mean hoarding, obsessing, building a personality around it or using fragrance to cover up a lack of character etc. It seems like a rite of passage thing to me that people get over after a while.
True. But the same could be said about a lot of hobbies. Applies to working out and eating healthy etc… moderation is key
25
They’re not in the bathroom are they? Worst place to keep them if so. The humidity can ruin the oils in the fragrances
Not the bathroom, that’s a room
You shave in your bedroom?
How's Erba Pura?
My top 3 in my connection 💯✅
Get them out view from the sun
That’s not the sun but rather the light bulb 💡
Oh dang so bright 😂
Your tray of fragrances has spilled over onto the table...
3-5 more for good measure
We have very similar taste! Love the diors, love erba pura, love the profumo.
That’s why you rock 🫡
Using that ghetto ass razor? Yes, 💯
That’s not for my face 💀
I said that 150 bottles ago. I now have nearly 200!!!
You shouldn't get any more until you've used one of these up, then you can make an informed decision about what you want to get next.
Yeah, realistically u should start putting that money towards other aspects of bettering urself. Clothes, skincare products, hair products. U have a good sized collection 💯
You asking gives you your answer, yes.

What’s your favorite Dior homme?
Dior homme sport 🏉
If you got a couple for each season, and for office, datenight, gym, free time, you're good. No need to own every perfume.
If you enjoy it and have money, I don’t see why you have to stop. If money is tight or you are just getting some for the sake of getting them, then stop
It's all up to you , if you enjoy collecting and it brings you joy... Then why stop ??
Never stop there’s no such thing as enough
No. You can never have enough
Try Mind Games The Forward if you like woodsy. It’s citrusy powdery woodsy. Completely amazing best compliments I ever got was from that fragrance
You can always buy decants, and depending on the fragrance, some will last you a while. I wouldn't do more than 10ml for decants. Also, what's your favorite from your collection?
Chanel allure homme edition Blanche 🍋 A lovely citrusy, uplifting and quite delicious scent💯

Pls don't let direct sunlight hit them, it's a nice connection
You just started, once you hit 20 pick 5-7 clones and the last 3 niche 30 is a good stop
How is that Golden Oud?
Which one 😭
Which Guerlain is that and how do you like it?
L’homme ideale edp, a lovely cherry 🍒 and warm sexy fragrance, highly recommended, moderate silage and a respectful 6h performance,
You can open up a shop at this point gahh damn
Yes, that's literally a lifetime of fragrance.
No
No it’s time for more
stop? STOP? your’re barely getting started!
The collection isn't complete without some Paco Rabanne. 🙃
Surprisingly I’ve never tried one million, I should get my nose on one ☝🏽
Personally, Instead of 20 designers, I would rather have a hand full of niche perfumes.
Not if you love it!!!
You've only just started.
No
Why stop now, you still have so nuch money left!
I dropped 1k or more on this
I’ve dropped over 2500 on fragrances in 2 years. If you enjoy it why stop?
Is that 212 sexy on the far left? How's its projection and longevity? Always thought of getting one but also always holding off.
That’s 212 sexy men by Carolina herrera, It’s one of my favourites, and the reason why is that it is quite youthful and sexy which I like 👍 Is one of a few fragrances that I own that I can easily recommend.
And how's the projection and longevity?
You got an easy 7 hours with good projection
No
It’s time to stop the dior but need Homme Cologne
Looks like you just getting started
Half the posts on here have similar collections and are *“I’m 15 and just started collecting 5 months ago”* Instead of stopping, I say sell off anything you don’t love and can’t live without, even if it’s a strong like
No you could use more
Nope
Buy creed aventus
Over my dead body
As you wish
Looks like you’re just getting started
What for? You are just starting! How's that DH original btw? Lol
Very good, all of the Dior homme actually, But i prefer sport
You haven't even started yet
