I want to get Craft by Andrea Maack but no idea where to get a sample either

Should be able to get samples of both on LuckyScent.

using clinique happy, doesnt last long enough, but love the initial smell of it.

really like a lot of the jo malone stuff, especially grapefruit, 154, and lime and cedar.

kiehls musk is really good too.

Any Recs for someone on a student budget?

I miss the days when I would use my dad's Creed, Lanvin, YSL Opium etc. He had a good collection.

I haven't tried the Gucci but the bleau de chanel is a really light, 'fresh' scent. One of those fragrances where you really can't over-spray unless you bathe in it. Nothing particularly interesting about it though Also, the packaging for The Infidels looks amazing.

Notes: Black currant, Green cumin, Bergamot, Magnolia, Tonka, Lavender, Patchouli, Amber, Labdanum

L'Artisan Parfumeur fragrances work really well with my skin. Spring and Summer Fleur de Liane and in the colder months Tea for Two.

Some of the Old English Shaving shops like Truefitt and Hill have great fragrances, cheaper than most mall bought brands but miles better.

'Black Violet' by Tom Ford, the smell last very long and it is distinctive

I use Creed Himalaya for years now
it is pretty much the only fragrance that doesn't annoy me
i hate almost everything you can get in normal stores
and i'm too lazy to try all these "niche" fragrances

Still using the massive bottle of Dior Homme Bois D'Argent I bought some time ago. According to people on Basenotes it's not very nice-smelling.

Considering Dior Homme Intense but not sure. I have Terre d Hermes and it's quite nice, but a tad bit too tangy for me.

Would love something that lasts a long time and fits in with a humid summer but isn't 'soapy' smelling. Any recs?

I haven't sampled Dior Homme Intense yet, how is it like? Might get it in the future.
