Please educate me. For years (like decades almost) I wore one cologne and one cologne only until they stopped making it (I didn’t know and couldn’t stock up before it was gone and it haunts me to this day). Since I can no longer wear it and have gone through the last of it minus a small bottle I only use on VERY special occasions. I’ve been trying and buying new scents. The old scent I wore was middle of the road in price and I can go on forever about how much I loved it, but I’ve found many new scents now that cover the spectrum in terms of price and I can’t seem to tell one from another in the price justification. My question now is this, I’ve tried Dior and other expensive colognes and I don’t find them to last longer or require less than other cheap fragrances that cost 1/5 to 1/3 of the price. So if the scent is attractive and it smells good on your skin and lasts etc. what’s the benefit of buying high end scents? I understand it with shoes, clothes for nicer construction, fit, and fabrics, and even watches (to a certain extent) but not with scents. Can anyone educate me as to what I don’t know or maybe I’m missing to spend more on different more pricey or luxury brands of colognes? Is there a reason or should I just save my money and buy cheaper options if it’s still “good” I’m interested to hear your thoughts. This may be an area I’m uneducated.

Hello all. This is my first post. I am a bit of a minimalist and have seen things about capsule wardrobes. I’m wondering if anyone currently does this and what would you suggest as staples for it. Thanks all

What do you think ? + Is there any advices you can give?

Antonio says “nay” for graphic tees and the elder statesman. Anyone just bagged them all and donated them? Just rip off the Band Aid and cold turkey those things?
