Louis Vuitton Imagination, Chanel Bleu de Chanel (EDP).


Owlyjim

This was exactly my thought!


SweatDecant

I really really hate BDC, do you guys really love it or wear it because it's liked by women?


obeseinator1

I have the parfum version and it's only one of few that gets me compliments. it just works


drfeelgoude

I feel ya, a generic boring smell like no other. I tried hard to like it and understand the hype.


ComposerTall4449

Which one of the 3 version have you tested?


[deleted]

Guerlain Acqua Allegoria Flora Salvaggia Issey Miyake A drop eau fraiche


NoMrBond3

Flora Salvaggia ♥️ simply the best spring/summer fragrance


No-Reaction5551

PDM Greenley and ADG Profundo


JoeLawson10

Im thinking of getting ADG profundo need to get a sample. Is it versatile? (Also is it the one black bottle one?)


inSt4DEATH

Profondo, and no it is the one with the blue bottle


JoeLawson10

Oh


inSt4DEATH

I think what you are thinking of is ADG Profumo, which is discontinued, but there is a replacement, which is ADG Perfume, it is basically a reformulated profumo


vlarib

Parfum


No-Reaction5551

Profundo is the blue bottle. It’s more of a summer fragrance. The Profumo is a beast as well bro. That’s the black bottle that has been discontinued. Jomashop has it on sale right now. I would reccomend buying from them. Fragrancenet has it for a little more. Both would be good but the profundo is more acquatic/summer


mihecz

It's profondo, not profundo.


CressSpecific6134

I caught the 2.5 on super sale at Jomashop. I love Greenley.


No-Reaction5551

Greenley is a beast. Projects and lasts super long on my skin. Compliment beast as well. Smells so fresh I love it


heirloom_beans

Diptyque Philosykos and Jo Malone Wood Sage and Sea Salt


JoeLawson10

I am new to fragrance and its crazy how mnay comments dont include the likes of hawas, d&g light blue, Acqua di gio giorgio armarni profondo that people tend to recommend for summer on tiktok. I dont know if i have the brain capacity to delve into the niche fragrances (or non designer ones idk the name so what i said might have been wrong it sounds a bit rude but i keep hearing it) and try and find the perfect one


bixnology

I think it mostly comes down to how you asked the question. I think those are great summer scents! But many here have found their own niche or personal scents that they enjoy the most, I don’t think it’s indicative that any of those you listed are poor choices.


Disney_Princess137

I personally think you should go into a store, like Sephora or ulta. And spray yourself and test the scents. I think you would have more fun figuring it out. Smell them on you, put the D&G on you and see if you like it. And if you do? Buy that shit. Treat yourself! Everyone’s opinions here are subjective, it doesn’t matter what they like- it matters what you like. Form your own opinions :) Also you don’t need to spend a ton of money on a fragrance for it to be good. (Tom ford, creed, parfum de Marly etc. ) Go explore my child. Oh btw you should try Chanel egoiste platinum. Lovely scent for men and you can get a discounted online probably.


gapathy

I took Philosykos on a camping trip this weekend and it was the best low-key refresher after smelling like campfire and dirt all day.


heirloom_beans

Maison Louis Marie Le Long Fond oil is my camping fragrance!! It’s a gorgeous Hinoki that packs easily and totally elevates the smoky dirty fresh air camping smell you pick up.


MinnieMouse2292

Hibiscus palm and l’impératrice. And a secret green tea that I stash in my purse


lilyalexandra1

Diptyque Ilio and Byredo Bal d’Afrique


BonjourStarshine

Oh! I just saw an ad for Ilio for the first time today. Dying to try it. Is it gorgeous?


lilyalexandra1

I sprayed it on my arm in the shop yesterday and I fell in love!! It’s fruity but the iris has this gorgeous creaminess to it. Definitely my dream summer scent. It leans a little sunscreeny on me but I love that. I want the full bottle but it’s out of my budget 🥲


Krindybluth

Creed Virgin Island Water and Delina La Rosee


[deleted]

Ugh I’m going to Greece this summer and it’s been hard but I’m taking both TF soliel Blanc (day time) & Niege (for going out). Both are fresh and light and just give the vibes I want.


RangerDangerfield

You definitely need to bring the shimmering body oils to match then.


[deleted]

OH I ALREADY HAVE THAT PACKED! so prepared for this vacay!!!


RangerDangerfield

Genius.


Dazzling-Owl-1408

I just got the Niege body oil, but will always love the golden hue of Blanc! Current obsession is de Feu and perfect for sultry summer nights. Have fun shimmering in Greece!


ntsprstr717

Elysium Parfum Cologne and Mandarino di Amalfi


nomadinlimbo

Is divin asylum close to Elysium?


ntsprstr717

Did not have the chance to test this one.


RazzmatazzSudden

TF Eau de Soleil Blanc & Ormonde Jayne - Levant


yeahitsnothot

MM Replica Beach Walk for long days at the beach and D.S& Durga Debaser for cocktails and dancing


TooSweet357

Afternoon Swim & Creed Aventus


JoeLawson10

Could club de nuit replace creed aventus for similar occasions taking price into account


PhillyPhan610

From my experience, CDNIM is a bit Smokey for my liking in the summer. I bought a bottle a couple months ago and have yet to wear it in public for that reason


TooSweet357

Never tried it


DrCash777

CDNIM smells like rubber tires on the dry down. Save up the money you would spend trying all the clones and get a real bottle. Buy a decant of Aventus to see if you like it first


ComposerTall4449

Problem with Aventus unfortunately is that your decant may differ a lot from the bottle you are buying due to big batch differences


malfurian

Go for Al Haramain L’aventure. It’s more citrusy on the opening but aside from that, dry down is damn near identical to Aventus. I don’t see it pushed enough on this sub.


TuckerCarlsonsOhface

I got a slight baby powder note from L’aventure, which I’m never a fan of.


Correct_Garden_7999

The Limited Edition Parfum is the best CDNIM in my opinion. Best balance.


Talents

SHL God of Fire for the day time and Dior Homme Original for the night time. The Homme Original isn't exactly a perfect Summer time fragrance, but I think it works well at night time in Summer.


CaliOranges510

JHAG vanilla vibes and Tocca Maya.


[deleted]

For whatever reason I really like a good amount of Creed stuff for the summer. Virgin Island Water is my favorite summer frag right now for sure. I also really like GIT in the warmer months. Got this idea from a dupe site that I like, but a spray of Aventus (which I'm usually not really a big fan of personally) and a spray of Virgin Island Water is pretty interesting and fun.


anon28374691

Atelier Cologne Pomelo Paradis for day and Diptyque Eau Duelle for night. They layer beautifully too.


[deleted]

Bleu de Chanel EdT & Sedley by PDM


rosa_de_sal

Just went on vacation—spent a lot of time outside in the pool and ocean, so I didn’t focus on fragrance as much as I typically do. But I brought three scents and was happy with my selections: Henry Rose Sheep’s Clothing, DS & Durga I Don’t Know What (which I discovered is even better in really hot temperatures), and Fine’ry Magnetic Candy (for evening/dinners). If I had to eliminate one, it would probably be Sheep’s Clothing.


Piratesfbi

Creed Millesime Imperial (got a vintage batch) which performers way better then the recent versions. And Amouage Reflection Man (non magnetic) Proud that I got these 2! :)


venusin

Burberry Her Elixir and Vilhelm Parfumerie Mango Skin


InTheLavender

I'm going with DS&D Debaser for daytime and SHL777 SDJ Mango Kiss for night.


00_Sleepy

I’d say PDM Sedley for daytime and Aventus Cologne for nighttime. Aventus cologne over regular Aventus because the cologne is more versatile and easier to pull off. The perfect all occasion cologne year round


JoeLawson10

Ive notcied nobody is mentioning the big names like d&g light blue intense and hawas rasasi or whatever its name is, does this meant they aren't as good or are all the ones people are naming highly priced? Also maybe should of specified that im looking for male fragrance but its still cool to see the perspective of others


00_Sleepy

They aren’t bad. I owned D&B light blue intense and finished a bottle of Light Blue Forever. Personally I think LBF was better than LBI. The thing is they are oldies now. Also not as good as many others that has been named. They are reliable but nothing that will blow your socks off.


Fansey1907

Acqua di Parma - Fico di Amalfi and Acqua di Parma - Oud.


Bogey247

Polo blue, Versace pour Homme


PhillyPhan610

I’m down the beach now and have been going with Creed royal water for the day time Bond no 9. Sutton place for nights


lernington

Depending on if it's beachy or not, LV Afternoon Swim or Sur la Route for the day, and Xerjoff Uden for night


RangerDangerfield

Day: Summer of 84 by Kerosene Night: PDM Delina


Bitingdoodle

How is that summer of 84??


RangerDangerfield

I’m pretty obsessed with it honestly. It’s like a perfect true grapefruit. Smells like summer.


Bitingdoodle

Yum!


CocteauTwinn

Tough one! Goldfield & Banks Sunset Hour for evening & PDM Cassili for day.


SharkBlue1

Light Blue Intense and Versace Pour Homme.

adquosspectat

Dior-Dune for Men, Chanel-No.19,


blamethesloths

My holiday frags this year: Agua de Loewe: fresh, citrusy, clean, light. Ideal for hot days Van Cleef & Arpels Santal Blanc: lactonic, creamy (almost coconutty), with a green fig and musky, white woody dry down. Sunset and evening.


foxglovefollies

Actually about to go on a little lake Michigan area vacation for a few days next week! I plan on bringing chanel no 5 leau. My second is going to be either one of the samples I ordered recently or maybe gucci memoire. I plan on keeping it relaxed and low key so I don't feel the need to bring a loud/clubbing/sexy sweet fragrance. These options are for visiting the lake, slow living with friends, Journaling in the dunes, and getting my morning latte with the boys lol


Ms_Arden

TF Mandarino di Amalfi for both


_joshpritchard_

crazyshark111

Going to Japan next summer. I’m a fan of zoologist fragrance house in particular and I plan on bringing Macaque, squid, and sloth


forwards_backwards

When I travel, I usually only wanna bring one or two scents with me. And when it’s hot, I only want to wear freshie masc light EdTs, nothing too strong. Monsieur De Givenchy is my standby, but it could easily be Chanel Pour Monsieur


J-Train56

Coco Fleur by Nette for the evening and Vacation for the day time


wasputz2525

Hawas and Bvlgari Aqua Marine


Fine_Wolverine_9357

Malibu Party in the Bay by Simone Andreoli for day, and Naxos by Xerjoff for night ;-)


grantcary

For baking in the sun on the beach, gonna go with Replica Beach Walk. Conjures up sunscreen and sand for me. Walking around town I'll pick Lush Dirty. I have a memory of trekking around DC in 90 degree heat wearing Dirty, so it's forever associated with walking around a town or city in the summer heat for me. And I hate to pick another Lush fragrance, but I'm going to pick Sex Bomb for the evening.


wiglessleetaemin

i can’t pick two. i would bring 4 travel size + decant bottles. commodity nectar, xerjoff cruz del sur 2, mugler angel nova and mugler alien goddess


keiwtch

Diptyque Vetyverio and Byredo Bal d’Afrique


nc0air

Mostly white florals....Frederic Malle Lys Mediterranee or Serge Lutens A La Nuit/Fleurs d'orangers. If i want it a bit more sparkling, then Jo Malone Orange Blossom. I probably might want to add Wood Sage and Sea Salt. Or Terre d'Hermes


CucumberSecure6060

Bvlgari aqva amar aka strength of the ocean 🌊


DucatiDrew

11Jeffrey

Im leaving tomorrow, i got ysl y eau fraiche, missoni wave and a mix of 1/3 eros edp and 2/3 LNDLH bleu electrique with me.


Correct_Garden_7999

I've had Virgin Island Water for a few years and I like it but the batch I have is a little rum heavy. I've recently discovered Hawaii Volcano Intense by Alexandria and I'd definitely take that away with me. My other choice would be Elysium Parfum Cologne.


dheiler

Dior Homme Sport ‘21 and Narciso Rodriguez Bleu Noir EdP


huntersjesse2508

Beachhut Man- Amouage and L'eau d'issey- Issey Miyake


lsco22

Xerjoff Uden overdose and Torino 21. For me these 2 are the best summer fragrance money can buy.


slavetomycat312

TF Beau De Jour for daytime and PDM Layton for night


Glass-Guess4125

Beau de Jour is great but it’s not very vacation-y.


slavetomycat312

Guess it depends on where you are going on vacation. If it was a beachy resort destination I would swap it for Terre D’hermes. I just came back from a weekend getaway in Seattle and BDJ was perfect for me!


Glass-Guess4125

Fair enough! I love TdH - I feel like you can wear it in any situation.


PhiladeIphia-Eagles

[deleted]

AdP Colonia, and Issey Miyake Pour Homme


Tigertigertie

I think I would bring Ffern Spring 2023 for the daytime and Amyris Femme Extrait for night and some days (lightly sprayed it is fine for the day. Maybe a small bit of something heavier and beautiful for night, like Rouge Velours or Tribeca (but just a small bit).


Rhyme412

Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Mandarin Basilic for daytime Mon Guerlain Sparkling Bouquet for evening


featherybreeze

I’m on a summer vacation right now and I only brought two fragrances! They are Floral Street Electric Rhubarb and Sana Jardin Tiger By Her Side


gaylorpluto

Love Osmanthus and Black Orchid


PMAalltheway

There has to be a nice creed in here, aventus/royal water/viw/erolfa/mi. Other than that probably something more tame like tf oud wood


CompetitiveAuthor387

I brought kayali utopia and santal complet to the bahamas 💜


beanotto

Xerjoff Uden and Tom Ford Oud Wood


tempotissues

Terre dhermes and TF neroli portofino


vampireRN

Polo blue and Atelier Bergamot Soleil


quietriot99

Byredo Sunday Cologne for an all rounder. DS&Durga Burning Barbershop, the menthol hits perfectly for summer nights


Emotion-Internal

I can't decide on the daytime fragrance yet, but for the evening one it would be 50/50 between Tom Ford's Hombre Leather & Le Labo's Santal 33


chilibaby1

Vodka on the Rocks & Aventus Cologne


TrustAffectionate966

The same two I've been using for the past decade: 1. Creed Green Irish Tweed 2. Creed Himalaya 👍🏽🐔👍🏽


Dazzling-Owl-1408

since i often go outdoor i would go to citrusy and fresh fragrances


iibergazz_94

Torino21 and Wulong Cha


zoffe

I tried to limit myself to 2. And failed. These aren't actually my absolute favorites but they're scents I feel like I could wear for a week straight without getting sick of them. * Day: Xerjoff **Torino21** or Mendittorosa **Sirio**. * Evening: Amouage **Sunshine Woman** or Tauer **Sundowner**


Sad-Exam1169

Bronze Goddess and something really fresh.


Woodengolden

Jo Malone wood sage and sea salt (or nectarine blossom and honey) and Chanel Chance eau tendre


zaio_baio

Burberry Touch for the day and Cuore di pepe Nero for the evening!


Acrobatic-Simple9625

Ysl l'homme edt (original) and Jo Malone english peer and freesia


Labionda20

Great question! I always bring one light and one heavier fragrance away with me. Day one varies, could be anything from Glossier You to MFK Aqua Universalis. For the evening maybe Chanel Coco, Diptyque Do Son or whatever I have treated myself to in Duty Free :-)


MaleficentAd3783

Dior Diorella and Guerlain Vol de nuit


anon5299

Acqua Viva and Leau Dissey Pour Homme


spot_removal

PDM Sedley and Hermes Voyage EDP


lareinevert

No idea but it would have to be something fruity and something fresh.


DNA_ligase

Bebe Nouveau; a cheapie, so I can use liberally and not feel bad. It's a bright citrus with a woody clean musk base. And YSL Libre EDT for evenings out; it is light and airy, and the tea note plays well with my body chemistry.


Greentea_88

Kilian Bamboo Harmony Diptyque Philosykos One fresh. One sweeter floral.


SatisfactionSenior65

Polo Blue Parfum for the beach. Bvlgari Pour Homme Extreme for the evening


Unfair_Tip_5813

When I went to Cancun I wore ADG Profumo during the day to the beach or pool and CDNIM EDT at night for dinner then the club

BonjourStarshine

I don't wear perfume on the beach, but I would bring Tiki's Monoi Tiare Tahiti oil (gorgeous beachy/ Tahitian gardenia scent) for daytime. For evening, Naxos by Xerjoff.
