Best Cheapo Colognes

submitted by TheBigGuyFromQueens to Fragrances 10 monthsAug 15, 2024 03:46:01 ago (+6/-1)     (Fragrances)

1. Varvatos Vintage. Smells completely different from the also very good John Varvatos, although the bottles look very similar. You can get this from a discounter for around $35.

2. Nautica Voyage. Yes, it smells like a generic aquatic summer fragrance, but it has great staying power for the price and no one will find it offensive. IT can probably be had for $20.

3. Reyanne Tradition Insurrection Wild 2. A very tobacco-ey scent. It is a bit cloying and synthetic, but still very good--particularly for the price point. Powerful stuff.

4. Afnan Turathi Blue. Smells like Bleu De Chanel with a muskier, animalic undertone. Very masculine. Probably $50 a bottle. Bottle is very prone to falling due to shitty, top heavy weight distribution, but it looks nice.

5. Old Navy Sea, Salt and Fig. The cheapo, less-sophisticated version of the highly touted Aussie Scent "Goldfield and Banks Pacific Rock Moss" I got 3 small bottles for probably $45. It is unisex and cloying, but good for the gym or masking things like car farts. You can't beat the price and considering how inexpensive it is, it lasts a long time.

6. Lapidus by Ted Lapidus. Not a good one to wear in public because it is both loud and dated, but I like to wear this when I go to bed or maybe if I'm just in my neighborhood running errands. A POWERFUL 80's fragrance that has a lot of staying power. Can be had for probably $25 a bottle.

7. Paul Sebastian. Everything I said about Lapidus applies here. Same price point.

8. Versace Blue Jeans. A dressed down, summery scent that is surprisingly inexpensive for carrying the Versace name. Grab a bottle for like $35.

https://www.fragrancenet.com/cologne/gianni-versace/blue-jeans/edt#118108

9. Lacoste Men Blanc 12.12.12. A little cloying, but good for summer and super cheap at around $30 a bottle.

Only faggots wear toilet water.

Men smell like men.

The smell of man drives women wild.

The JEWS don't want white men attracting white women. That's why they have DEODORANT, ANTIPERSPIRANT, and COLOGNE. All cancerous, as well, because they will use every vector they possibly can to bleed us dry and kill us.

Haven't used any of those three in well over a decade. Ask me if women love the smell of a man. You shouldn't even have to ask me. What the fuck are pheromones? You think the SMELL of a man or a woman isn't also meant to attract the opposite sex? But by all means, wear your 'muh summery scent' of carcinogens instead.

The people who use perfume/cologne smell like chemicals - like cancer. You can't tell. I know you can't. Like a smoker can't tell he smells like a fucking ashtray.

There's a reason people didn't bathe but once a week/month back in the day. HUMANS DO NOT SMELL THAT BAD. THEY SMELL LIKE HUMANS. NATURAL.

Sorry that nigger in your gym class reeked like nigger, or that white kid who used all the Jew-scented shit and fucked up his bacterial ecosystem, but that is NOT what most people smelled like long ago.

Stop being a fucking consumer. Stop consuming "scented" ANYTHING. Shit's cancer. Get it out of your detergent, soaps, stop using "shampoo" or "conditioner".

Fuck, man. I thought this place was based. This is some top-tier Jew bullshit.

It's what they do in NYC. To be honest though, I do use shampoo and soap to remove the dead skin cells and 'gunk'.

It's what people do all over the world. For hundreds of years now. Some people like it; some people don't. Don't retcon your own bullshit narrative to defame colognes.

I'll make a point to pay attention when I'm out, but I can't remember the last time I smelled anyone with a chemical scent. It's not a thing among the people I encounter. Maybe something like lavender or another natural scent, but smelling like chemicals seems more like an east coast phenomenon. It's more common for perfumes and colognes to be banned, especially from public places.

fragrances are banned from public meetings

Oct 10, 2023 — California's new ban on 26 chemicals used in fragrances and cosmetics follows EU standards and regulations.

If people don't wear it, then why does every major department store have a huge percentage of their square footage dedicated to it? Half of Sephora is colognes and perfumes.

I dunno. Maybe those are corporate drone types. Silicon Valley has millions of those people.

Common toxic non-natural ingredients in colognes:

Phthalates: Used to stabilize fragrance and extend its duration; linked to hormone disruption and reproductive issues.

Synthetic Musks: Man-made compounds that can accumulate in the body and may disrupt hormones.

Parabens: Synthetic preservatives that mimic estrogen and have been associated with breast cancer and reproductive toxicity.

Formaldehyde-releasing preservatives: Ingredients like DMDM hydantoin and quaternium-15 release formaldehyde, a known carcinogen, over time.

The faggot you're talking to:

"hundreds of years now"

Yes. While Jews have been in control of most everything. And STILL not something humans naturally NEED or SHOUlD have for a healthy society.

Men smell like men. Women smell like women.

Or chemicals. Or other bullshit that is NOT conducive to natural attraction leading to procreation.

[ - ] Sector2 1 point 10 monthsAug 17, 2024 01:41:12 ago (+1/-0)

Aside from the toxicity, I don't get why you'd want to smell like some chemical scent. It must be some combination of city-dweller and modern jewish society.

RIGHT.

It was adveritising - programmed into us from the TelAvivision. People were convinced that humans stink and they need these products to smell good so people want to be around them.

It's horseshit.

SOAP is fine. Simple low-ingredient soap. Goat milk or tallow. Good stuff.

Shampoo is advertising.

Sorry, but one scent I do not enjoy is Staph.

Cologne and Perfume do not originate with Jews, BTW.

I don't know why my hobby is so upsetting to you.

Were you the stinky kid in school?

The only thing you forgot...

Faggots should be burned alive for entertainment.

It’s just this one fruitcake. He does it for the lulz.

Thanks for the recommendations. Your guidance has made me decide that I'd like a total of 4 to 6 options to choose from, so I joined a sampling subscription to help narrow it down.

Regarding your #6, you wear cologne to bed? Geeze. This might be an addiction.

[ - ] TheBigGuyFromQueens [op] 0 points 10 monthsAug 15, 2024 08:39:18 ago (+0/-0)

It is like aromatherapy. I do it every couple of weeks when the mood strikes.

[ - ] Not_a_redfugee 1 point 10 monthsAug 15, 2024 10:44:40 ago (+1/-0)

My favorite is true religion cologne. Hard to find though.
