Iris in 2026
Valentino Uomo intense discontinued. Prada L'homme intense discontinued. Dior's homme line has been reformulated, and Prada L'homme EDT is impossible to find for at least few months. Im currently comparing Dior's Homme Intense 2025 to Givenchy's Gentleman Réserve Privée and the Givenchy is the clear winner, IMHO. (Although its only been 45 mins since spraying) Given the current market conditions, whats your recommended Iris scent? Is there anything better than Réserve Privée? (Cause its pretty darn good!)

I just picked up Rayhaan Obsidian. It’s a hybrid-clone of both the old and new formulation for Dior Homme parfum. So far I love it.

That’s me. It’s also frustrating when you get the “your item has shipped” notification and then you hit the link to track it and find out it hasn’t ACTUALLY shipped yet at all, they just got the order and made a label for it and that’s it.

Ross and Burlington Factory Haul
$17 for a new 100 ml/ 3.34 fl oz of Lataffa Ramz from Ross. $15 ea for a 100 ml/ 3.38 fl oz of Bellavita G.O.A.T. And CEO MAN from Burlington Coat Factory. If any of these interest you and not currently in your collection, go forth and purchase for it is good.

I’ve found that the best times to hit Burlington to get the good shit before the other collectors clear them out are Monday Wednesday and Friday afternoons. I asked a worker and she said that’s when they get and stock the deliveries. So far that info has been accurate. Any of the off days I went there’s nothing but the usual Messi, Lattafa Asad, and the age old Guess and CK frags and cheap knock off “clones” that last ten minutes. The days I went at the right times I was able to grab some absolute BANGERS like Rayhaan Lion (JPG Ultramale), Vulcan Fue (SHL God of Fire), French Avenue Obsidian (Angel Share On The Rocks), Shiyakka Snow, Black and Silver (LV Meteore, CH Bad Boy Cobalt, Amuage Reflection Man). All for very cheap!

Armaf's Odyssey Mega Man
Ive had this one for a few months now, and its the best blind buy purchase ive ever made! I had been waiting for a good deal on Y, and this clone came on sale first, so i thought id try it... Its a total banger! The opening isnt exactly Y edp, but its pleasant enough and the dry down is a near perfect replica. The beer coozie bottle isn't very sexy, and the giant plastic thermos lid cap leaves something to be desired... but the juice is perfect, and the atomizer is fine. I did finally find a deal on YSL and ended up buying the new Y Iced. I put Mega on one arm and Y Iced on the other, after 6 hrs they were lasting and projecting equally well. (Above average, but not beastmode.) In short, the only thing to complain about Mega is the aesthetics of the bottle. For about 1/4 the price of Y EDP, Odyssey Mega is a solid choice for any fragrance value hunter.

I picked this one up out of curiosity after seeing all the rave reviews saying how close it was to YSL Y EDP. Turns out they were right. I loved it so much I sold my YSL bottle and kept this one. Some of these clones are getting so good it almost makes it unjustified to pay the extra money for the OG if the scent is so close! Even if the OG quality is slllliiiiggghhhttttly better in a side by side comparison, I ask myself, is that very slight bump in quality worth the significant bump in price? For me in my tax bracket, the answer is no most of the time. Clearly there are a TON of clones that are pure liquid garbage in a bottle. But the really good ones seem to be getting better and better.

Something light, sporty, aquatic or citrusy. Preferably one of my shorter lasting fragrances so by the time my workout is over, the scent is wearing off and by the time I shower it’s Gina and I can choose something else for the rest of the day (or re-apply if I want to keep smelling the same). For me I switch between YSL Y EDP, ADG Profumo, Pacific Rock Moss, PDM Sedley, Montblanc Legend Red. Inoffensive freshies. Stuff like that.

40 year old who never put much thought into dressing classy at all until now. Pretty much starting from scratch with a very low budget.
