Do any of you use cologne or perfume?

What are your 3 go-to Tom Ford perfumes, if you can even 'rank' them?

I recently tried Soleil Blanc while travelling and it definitely charmed me. It feels so nourishing and refreshing, like sweet glowing nectar. I've just seen it's one of the cheapest as well, can't imagine how the top ones feel. 

That’s tough, because what perfume I put on depends on so many variables - like my outfit, the occasion, but most importantly, my mood. Which is exactly why I have as many fragrances as I do.

That said, purely based on what I wear most often, I’d say Tuscan Leather is probably my most used daytime scent, and Noir de Noir is my go-to for nighttime - it’s definitely my favorite after-dark perfume. Lately though, I’ve been wearing their newest fragrance, Black Lacquer, like crazy. I honestly think it’s the best thing they’ve put out in years. I’m usually not that into woody scents, but the additional freshness and spice, paired with that curveball of ink and vinyl - like, how cool is it conceptually to smell like vinyl? - just really works for me. Someone on Fragrantica called this „BDSM in a bottle“ - what more could i possibly add?

So yeah, right now, those three are probably my favorites.

I do appreciate their Soleil line as well, though. I only have Soleil Blanc from that line - which you’ve tried too - and I love that stuff in the summer. But for me, it really only works during those peak summer days, when that sun-lotion-esque vibe can fully shine.

Actually, Tuscan Leather was my first Tom Ford fragrance ever - because of that stupid Drake line about how it smells like cocaine, lol.

Funny enough, it’s still probably my favorite fragrance and my favorite Drake song at the same time.

@Nilsi haha awesome, thanks for the breakdown. I'll try them next time I have the chance.

I remembered I tried a little Ombré Leather too. It was deep, rich, and dense, maybe too much for my vibe.

I just got into fragrances and it's fascinating to explore how I feel and how I get to express myself when wearing them.

Perfume causes depression if you inhale it at night as you’re sleeping

It blocked hormones and interferes with various recovery functions in the body as you sleep

keep that in mind

Lol chill out, man. You’re not gonna spiral into depression just because you put on some perfume.
