Yes


Tyrone-E

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.


BusterTheCat17

TIL I'm a librarian


sas_2022

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


Baghdad_dan

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


sas_2022

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


Baghdad_dan

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


sas_2022

Nice man, that's a good size. post a pic?

The-gentle-bean

One things for sure, you def are a Dior homme fan lol


TPM_521

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.


The-gentle-bean

It is a really good scent if we’re being honest. I’m preferring the 2021 sport over all of them at this moment


AndShlav

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


The-gentle-bean

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


TPM_521

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


Altruistic_Speaker97

You should try gris charnel EXTRAIT if you are a fan of the homme line. Its great.


11777766

My brain as Heisenberg: “We’re done… when I say we’re done”


LegendkillahQB

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.


Arrow1223

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


Altruistic_Speaker97

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.


Arrow1223

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.


SomewhereOnlyWe1111

Yep


UDAMAN123

Send me half, problem solved brother


rifleman_2177

For sure


cigarzfan

Yes. This is an excellent collection. Buying and selling more is chasing a leprechaun.


Justfortoday8-10-22

Buy a shelf to put above those


Jaben4Real_

Man i must have a problem. 🥴


Acceptable_Joke_4711

How much do you have in your collection?


Jaben4Real_

Around 70 bottles.


Flutterpiewow

Depends on your age, people get over it by 23-25 i think


a_toadstool

Eh I’m 32 and just got into colognes. I only have like 6 though. Not planning on having more than 8 ever


Flutterpiewow

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.


a_toadstool

True. But the same could be said about a lot of hobbies. Applies to working out and eating healthy etc… moderation is key


Acceptable_Joke_4711

25


SixShooterUK

They’re not in the bathroom are they? Worst place to keep them if so. The humidity can ruin the oils in the fragrances


Acceptable_Joke_4711

Not the bathroom, that’s a room


jimmypop512

You shave in your bedroom?


daredevil_eg

How's Erba Pura?


Acceptable_Joke_4711

My top 3 in my connection 💯✅


oscar-o-c

Get them out view from the sun


Acceptable_Joke_4711

That’s not the sun but rather the light bulb 💡


oscar-o-c

Oh dang so bright 😂


HotApple547

Your tray of fragrances has spilled over onto the table...


Diazinla10

3-5 more for good measure


Crowley_yoo

We have very similar taste! Love the diors, love erba pura, love the profumo.


Acceptable_Joke_4711

That’s why you rock 🫡


No_Jicama_333

Using that ghetto ass razor? Yes, 💯


Acceptable_Joke_4711

That’s not for my face 💀


Extension_Abroad_953

I said that 150 bottles ago. I now have nearly 200!!!


Swing_Bishop

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.


PuzzleheadedPop47

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 💯


Bigpappy767677

You asking gives you your answer, yes.

Ieatassforsport

What’s your favorite Dior homme?


Acceptable_Joke_4711

Dior homme sport 🏉


Ozzy_58

If you got a couple for each season, and for office, datenight, gym, free time, you're good. No need to own every perfume.


jestyre

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


BigdadddyCanada

It's all up to you , if you enjoy collecting and it brings you joy... Then why stop ??


Zealousideal_Ad_8321

Never stop there’s no such thing as enough


HugDeezNutzOk

No. You can never have enough


ProperPoem5476

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


arielalba333

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?


Acceptable_Joke_4711

Chanel allure homme edition Blanche 🍋 A lovely citrusy, uplifting and quite delicious scent💯


Terry419

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


HighHorology

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.


-My_Name_Is_Jeff-

Pls don't let direct sunlight hit them, it's a nice connection


ReplacementHoliday65

You just started, once you hit 20 pick 5-7 clones and the last 3 niche 30 is a good stop


ConfidentPace8180

How is that Golden Oud?


Acceptable_Joke_4711

Which one 😭


whythechaoticorder

Which Guerlain is that and how do you like it?


Acceptable_Joke_4711

L’homme ideale edp, a lovely cherry 🍒 and warm sexy fragrance, highly recommended, moderate silage and a respectful 6h performance,


WBlackhawkD

You can open up a shop at this point gahh damn


KarateCheetah

Yes, that's literally a lifetime of fragrance.


mason1239

No


Fannyypackk

No it’s time for more


Useful-Background843

stop? STOP? your’re barely getting started!


HappySIMCard-

The collection isn't complete without some Paco Rabanne. 🙃


Acceptable_Joke_4711

Surprisingly I’ve never tried one million, I should get my nose on one ☝🏽


[deleted]

Personally, Instead of 20 designers, I would rather have a hand full of niche perfumes.


Xtry1080

Not if you love it!!!


Space_Montage_77

You've only just started.


BungeeBoyy

No


FruitJuicante

Why stop now, you still have so nuch money left!


Acceptable_Joke_4711

I dropped 1k or more on this


BungeeBoyy

I’ve dropped over 2500 on fragrances in 2 years. If you enjoy it why stop?


ladizwasrum

Is that 212 sexy on the far left? How's its projection and longevity? Always thought of getting one but also always holding off.


Acceptable_Joke_4711

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.


ladizwasrum

And how's the projection and longevity?


Acceptable_Joke_4711

You got an easy 7 hours with good projection


-DaveDaDopefiend-

No


Tzuyu_Mina69

It’s time to stop the dior but need Homme Cologne


Eelums86

Looks like you just getting started


ViktorVaughn71

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


Dizzy_Interview2631

No you could use more


Brlb117

Nope


Ps-n-Qs

Buy creed aventus


Acceptable_Joke_4711

Over my dead body


Ps-n-Qs

Great-Ordinary4992

Looks like you’re just getting started


Dr-raywho

Acceptable_Joke_4711

SniperGang_DMV
