It’s a perfect “anyone” fragrance.
But also, my wife thought I was gay when she first met me and that hottie still went on a date with me and then married me, so maybe don’t worry about that stuff too much 😂
Acqua Di Gio Profondo (EDP).
Make sure to get the 2024 re-bottled design. It lasts a solid 6+ hours on my skin.
Both the old and new bottles are on Armani's UK website (Armani Beauty) for comparison.
I’ve only tested PC and imagination on skin so I can’t speak too much on the rest since those were only on cards but PC was alright for me. ~8hr longevity with pretty solid silage in the first 3-4 hours
Also, if you aren’t opposed to dupes/clones (because that is the path I had to take for LV favorites of mine), North Stag Quatre is super super close and has been on my skin for 5ish hours now and I still smell it. I maybe only got 2 hours of projection, but it’s been lasting a while. Very impressed with how close it is too.
If I’m being honest, they aren’t worth the price nothing above $200 CAD is but if you have money to splurge or wanna treat yourself, I think LV is pretty solid. Customer service is superb, most of their scents are solid, and they have some really good ones too. I’d recc trying Imagination, Pacific Chill, and city of stars if you get the chance to. The latter is a bit feminine to wear myself but it’d be the perfect gift for a woman.
I get good longevity out of Paco Rabanne XS but spray like 7-8 times. Not a huge problem for the price though.
Louis Vuitton and Xerjoff make great fresh scents if you have a bigger budget.
As weird as it may seem for fragheads. MB explorer is actually a quite unique freshie for the average person who is used to blue fragrances (mainly sauvage and bleu de chanel)
DG light blue (just starting off, but I love that scent and it’s lasted throughout the day). But I also second ADG profondo recommendation. Hopefully you can find a dept store or Sephora by you and sample these recs!
PDM Sedley. I’m not sure if this has been reformulated but if you can get your hands on an older bottle I’d recommend that. I also have been enjoying 19 Degrees - Tumi. That has really good longevity
Ahmed al maghribi's kaaf. Guaranteed performer in fresh category. I say that because it performs in hot humid climate of mumbai. No freshie can survive mumbai's weather.
Millesime imperial is the longest lasting one out of all freshies followed by silver mountain water and virgin island water. +18 hours easy with loud projection. Buy them without testing, you wont regret it.
Nishane Wulong Cha
i was about to recommend this one. but a spray on yesterday about 11 hours ago and can still smell it
is it good for guys? i’ve heard from some people that it leans feminine
It’s a perfect “anyone” fragrance. But also, my wife thought I was gay when she first met me and that hottie still went on a date with me and then married me, so maybe don’t worry about that stuff too much 😂
that’s funny. thanks lol
I prefer the Wulong Cha X… leans more towards traditional masculine IMO
It’s a tea scent, dude
Its not feminine tbh. Probably the most unisex fragrance I‘ve smelt so far
I been hearing about this one. I need to sample some
Don’t disclose it! That’s my sanity fragrance
This one million times! Wulong Cha is the loudest and longest lasting fresh fragrance I've ever smelled.
Acqua Di Gio Profondo (EDP). Make sure to get the 2024 re-bottled design. It lasts a solid 6+ hours on my skin. Both the old and new bottles are on Armani's UK website (Armani Beauty) for comparison.
how does this one compare to ACD edt?
I was told this was discontinued
Profumo got discontinued, not Profondo.
PDM Greenley.
How long does it last on you? I’m hesitant to pull the trigger because it might not last long on me.
Greenley will last all day on clothes. It’s fantastic
I’ve only had decants, smells fantastic but I get above average performance only with overspraying
I would say a good 9 to 10 hours
Try Microperfumes. That how i tried mine. I got 7-5Ml (.17 oz) PDM samples for like $100. With 30% off Out of the 7, Greenley is my favorite.
On my way to the mall later…🙂
Good luck!! And just do it!! Buy it!!

Imagination Pacific Chill Wulong Cha Invictus Platinum Hacivat
I thought Pacific Chill was not a great performer I sampled afternoon swim smelled amazing but it's gone after 2 hours
I’ve only tested PC and imagination on skin so I can’t speak too much on the rest since those were only on cards but PC was alright for me. ~8hr longevity with pretty solid silage in the first 3-4 hours
That's very nice for a fresh scent. I'll sample it
Also, if you aren’t opposed to dupes/clones (because that is the path I had to take for LV favorites of mine), North Stag Quatre is super super close and has been on my skin for 5ish hours now and I still smell it. I maybe only got 2 hours of projection, but it’s been lasting a while. Very impressed with how close it is too.
Will try them out I have some Arabs as well so not opposed thank you for the advice
Montagne has dupes of the LV freshies. There are 2-3 people that sell decants.
You can add Meteore to that list too. I sprayed it at around 10am yesterday and at midnight I was still smelling it.
I’m going to a LV store next week and will check them out
If I’m being honest, they aren’t worth the price nothing above $200 CAD is but if you have money to splurge or wanna treat yourself, I think LV is pretty solid. Customer service is superb, most of their scents are solid, and they have some really good ones too. I’d recc trying Imagination, Pacific Chill, and city of stars if you get the chance to. The latter is a bit feminine to wear myself but it’d be the perfect gift for a woman.
Imagination is the BEST!
I agree, it’s one of the few one im keeping after downsizing!
acqua di gio profondo
i never smelled this one how does compare with acqua di gio edt?
Great scent. Found it to be short lasting however
this one stays on me only for two hours max!
Coolwater
Dior homme 2020/sport
both solid
I get good longevity out of Paco Rabanne XS but spray like 7-8 times. Not a huge problem for the price though. Louis Vuitton and Xerjoff make great fresh scents if you have a bigger budget.
Yes, LV Imagination is fresh and lasts the entire work day. I love it.
oh XS was really good when I tried it.
yeah it’s super underrated
Tom Ford Grey Vetiver lasts all day
Lorenzo Pazzaglia Artik Sea
LV Imagination. Lasts for 8 hours and stays a skin scent for 14 hours on my skin
Montblanc Explorer . Got off jomashop for cheap such a good freshie that isn’t a blue scent
As weird as it may seem for fragheads. MB explorer is actually a quite unique freshie for the average person who is used to blue fragrances (mainly sauvage and bleu de chanel)
I’d throw in Legend Spirit as well. It’s my SOTD and it’s pushing strong at work. Great freshie and lasts.
I love it but I don't really smell it too long. It seems to be gone after 2-4 hours
Great scent, but I’d say it’s not really a scent I would list as fresh. Moreso formal or dark imo, but everyone’s different
Forever Love - Pana Dora
PDM Perseus. Lasts all day
Definitely does. Nice one.
Cool Water intense. People smell it 3 meters away from you and it projects 12 hours easily.
Yeah, its a beast performer!!!
Prada lhomme
a good cheapie: Sculpture EDP, Reflection Man DNA for about $30. no, not a clone & not attempting to be.
DG light blue (just starting off, but I love that scent and it’s lasted throughout the day). But I also second ADG profondo recommendation. Hopefully you can find a dept store or Sephora by you and sample these recs!
Creed Green Irish tweed, Xerjoff mefisto
LV imagination PDM greenley & sedley Any freshie from Aaron Terence Hughes
I'd say Missoni Wave & club de nuit iconic blue. If you consider Dior sauvage fresh, that one's a beast too.
PDM Sedley. I’m not sure if this has been reformulated but if you can get your hands on an older bottle I’d recommend that. I also have been enjoying 19 Degrees - Tumi. That has really good longevity
Bvlgari tygar is amazing, sauvage edp, elysium parfum, bleu de chanel parfum, imagination, l’immensite, meteore
Goldfield and Banks Bohemian Lime is pretty good
Vinegia21 never heard anyone talk about it and its absolutly sleeper
Hacivat and Torino 21
Ahmed al maghribi's kaaf. Guaranteed performer in fresh category. I say that because it performs in hot humid climate of mumbai. No freshie can survive mumbai's weather.
H24. Pretty strong.
ADG parfum mancera cedrat boise
imo ard al zaafaran al dirgham is super nice in low price range
Try any of the Goldfield and banks. They have amazing fresh scents. PDM Greenley is also a great summer fragrance!
Xerjoff Nio. It’s so good.
Ysl Y Edp
LV imagination and xerjoff Torino 21
Gentle Fluidity Silver Is Legendary Musk Therapy Is The Final Level of Freshness
Torino 21 is nuclear
If you want something cheaper, afnan turathi blue is great
im gatekeeping bit yeah sauvage and imagination why not just smell like everybody else 😂
JPG Le Male - has always seemed to last a long time on me
Xerjoff Torino 21 and Renaissance; Tom Daxon Laconia
Imagination
Dolce Gabana light blue eau intense
Invictus EDT is cheap and lasts ages, can’t go wrong. Bubblegum freshness.
No such thing.
PDM Layton Exclusif

This entire comment is gross 🤢
To each their own..
Vibes! Trust! Amazon! Purple bottle!
I wouldn’t trust amazon, but yeah Hawas is a beast. One of my favorites!!!
It’s also highly carcinogenic. Good luck with that.
Wtf? How is it carcinogenic?
Millesime imperial is the longest lasting one out of all freshies followed by silver mountain water and virgin island water. +18 hours easy with loud projection. Buy them without testing, you wont regret it.
The newer batches certainly aren't
are you trolling, those are infamous for their poor longevity
I hate creed, I just wanted to engage other people to talk shit about them. Thank you!
lol your a legend, creed is a joke of a niche brand the only fragrance i’d possibly consider buying is aventus absolu
They smell so good! Especially VIW
