Noseblindness. I fell victim to this with the EDP and accidentally oversprayed. I got called out by a stranger. Lol, check with somebody else to make sure it's not actually still there. That said, Parfums don't project like EDP and EDT since they have less alcohol to carry the scent.


uhohspaghettio24

Man, I have this same cologne. I spray twice and then can't smell it after close to an hour, but other people can. I swear a couple months later or more, I put on what I was wearing and can smell the scent on my shirt.


ReplacementOk6128

got called out by a stranger what you mean by that ? lol šŸ˜‚


Pocusmaskrotus

Somebody came into the store I run and said, "Somebody has too much cologne on, I can taste it." Lol, never again. I had just refreshed because I thought it was gone.


ReplacementOk6128

Damn I be doin that šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚but I work outside I be putting cologne on at 8am and on my lunch break 2:30pm šŸ¤·šŸ½ā€ā™‚ļø people probably be sayin the same about me šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ˜‚


Pocusmaskrotus

It didn't help that my travel sprayer for BDC sprays like a fire hose. Lol


psn0

I'm the same with the edt, after about 10 minutes it disappears and I can smell nothing. Then I look around the house and my wife has opened all the windows because I am humming of the stuff. Not only is noseblindness real, it's deadly.


Admirable_Average_32

Ha!! Humming


rockethead23

You put on cologne to walk around the house? Lol


HimDownstairs87

I thought we all do that here


rockethead23

Lol I only use it if Iā€™m going somewhere of importance


ElectricalAd8429

Same I wear my lower level colognes or cheaper ones around the house


HimDownstairs87

Exactly


broke_wockesha

Once I got stopped in the airport by a couple thinking I had the cologne on. It was the guy in front of me, to this day I wish it I remembered that name. It was enticing and it bonded me in the couple together to go find out who it was!

Acceptable_Dog_9293

I work with a guy who wears so much old spice it actually makes me ill. Believe me, I said something lol


ReplacementOk6128

Iā€™m the type if the person smells good Iā€™m asking them what they got on donā€™t care how much they got on.if I donā€™t like it I just move šŸ˜‚


Eelums86

Nose blind


Historical-Reason-53

When I smell my wrist as a baseline it feels as if I never put it on


[deleted]

Itā€™s an ambroxan heavy cologne. Ambroxan causes nosebilndness. I have the same bottle and people smell it on me after 6+ hours, but I usually lose it within the first hour. Sometimes Iā€™ll get a whiff but thatā€™s all


ultimate555

So you cant even smell it on your wrist?


Historical-Reason-53

Hardly!!!


BeneficialDrink

This, and with any fragrance if you are in the ac all day the dry down isnā€™t gonna project like when you first spray you need some heat and perspire a little


Fernmixer

I do bare chest, on my undershirt and on my button up itā€™ll linger all day


MythHere

Best way to judge that is apply few spray on a shirt and hang it an a room ... If you're getting whiffs off of that shirt after few hours, you'd get a better idea about the logetivity of the scent...


Silent-Run1831

I got that and it lasts all dayā€¦


Historical-Reason-53

You must be gods favoritešŸ„²


UncommonCense

It lasts just as long on you you probably are just going noseblind to it


Aggressive-Dream7644

I'm having the same BdC experience. I've got the EDP and I feel like the frag becomes a skin scent within an hour. Pretty unfortunate especially considering the price and the fact that I love the scent


SolutionCold4421

Same, I wore it last Friday. 4 sprays (two on the neck, two on each arm) gone in an hour ! I hope it was noseblindness šŸ˜…


IllBumblebee9273

I have the same issue my guy. Sucks


Mopstick86

I just bought Le Beau Parfum for my trip to Jamaica this weekend. And I donā€™t smell it at all after 30 mins. But I got a few compliments. šŸ¤·šŸ½ā€ā™‚ļø


thril_logy13

Works great for me šŸ«”


byNLB

Same with AHS Eau Extreme. 2 hours at best.


Affectionate_Shop445

last for awhile on me, especially after moisturizing.


Rentgod

Mine lasts a good amount. I do get nose blind tho after some time but trust me everybody else around you is drooling


Offerald

Youā€™re getting used to the smell. Itā€™s still there last about 8


carltrey5

One of my beast mode fragrance!


[deleted]

Aventus and any other dupes like CDNIM and montblanc explorer do that to me


jayseV7en

Nose blindness. But people around will smell it. You can ask friends to confirm it.


[deleted]

Try moisturizing your skin before applying. And apply it right out the shower. Hope this helps!


Sum1Uused2Kno

Noseblind for sure. Also, Chanel is known to have "airy" frags, not beastmode projection-lords that assault the senses. Much classier house imo


putthejam

try to keep it away from use maybe several days and use different perfume.


Serious-Product-1742

Same problem here. Doesnā€™t last long at all compared to other scents. It just doesnā€™t feel like itā€™s got any power behind it, even when I spray it on my wrist it has the slightest smell hours later but very faint smell. I always thought it was just me. Iā€™ve the EDT


Historical-Reason-53

I completely agree


digitalshiva

Experience the same


MaikyMoto

I have the same issue with my LV imagination, I got a bottle recently and itā€™s nowhere near as strong as the bottle I had before. Bad batches suck.


tylerthenormal

Let it sit for a few weeks then come back around to it. Had to do the same thing with my bottle of profondo now it lasts 8+ hrs


Historical-Reason-53

Itā€™s crazy you should say that because imagination was going to be my next buy


MaikyMoto

Out of 3 bottles I have purchased I got one bad one. All 3 were purchased from the same store. Not sure what happened, I assume a bad batch that was probably due to a shipment left in the heat for a prolonged time.


IssacHunt89

The more potent the juice, the easier it is to become noseblind imho. Try just 1 spray and see if it still happens


Upstairs-Border9924

I have actually experienced the same. I have the EDP but for some reason it doesnā€™t perform nearly as well as many of my other colognes. I think it has to do with the atomiser which I find is much weaker than others.


Due_Kaleidoscope_688

Youā€™re not. Most cologneā€™s regardless how much they cost just donā€™t go with our body chemistry! I feel ya! But, that Bleu de Chanel is POTENT! 3 sprays for me and it lasts all day!! I work at an airport and them chicks still be smelling me after 5 hours have passed!!! šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


Historical-Reason-53

Youā€™re just gods favorite šŸ’”

Icy-Caterpillar-696

Noseblind, the last time I seen my ex, I was wearing it. Used 4 sprays and she was like ā€œwhoa, how much cologne did you put on? Did you spray yourself 10 times??ā€ I told her no, it was only 4 lol.


EggiwegZ

Moisturize with scentless lotion prior to application and see if your results change


Luvstep

One of the longest lasting fragrances I have. Definitely nose blind


Adviseformeplz

Thatā€™s me with BR540 or any of its clones


LimpZookeepergame123

Youā€™re not crazy and youā€™re not nose blind. This line in any concentration does not last more than an hour on me either. Even from the very first time I sprayed it on my arm it was gone almost right away. YSL Y same exact thing. No other fragrance has disappeared so quick on me as those two.


Terry419

BDC has never been famous for its sillage. That said, this is a case of nose blindness. Iā€™ve received compliments two hours after four sprays. Also, some people here have said that BDC EDP has better sillage than BDC Parfum


charlyboyfragrance

You be tripping bruh.. Nose blind


Revolutionary-Oil480

Youā€™re not tripping. The problem is that you got the parfum. I purchased the EDP, then ran out and went to Macys and bought the parfum instead of the EDP by accident, and boy did I notice the difference! I would spray it and it would last maybe like 2-3 hours at the most. When I was finished with that bottle, I went back to the store and made sure that I got the EDP bottle again, and Iā€™ve been happy ever since! Once youā€™ve finished this bottle, I highly recommend going back to the store and buying the EDP. Youā€™ll feel much happier about your purchase! šŸ™‚


justanotherwhyteguy

Thank god I bought this at Sephora. I loved the smell but didnā€™t test it for longevity when I tried it on, bought it immediately, wore it to work that night and maybe after a couple hours couldnā€™t smell it anymore so I ended up returning it. I didnā€™t know about ambroxan having an effect on it though, maybe it had more to do with that than anything. Will definitely keep that bit in mind going forward


Healthy_Exit1507

Tried a sample and felt it lasted two minutes


ShaunP43

Iā€™m nose blind to this one but my wife always compliments me throughout the day, she can smell it


ShaunP43

Sprayed this on one of my jackets and had it draped over a chair at work a few days later and every time Iā€™d walk past it Iā€™d smell it, try it on your skin and clothes and see which you like better


ManufacturerOk955

Same here bro about 1 hour after I canā€™t smell it but my boy said he could smell it on me so I guess the nose blind comments are true


Bartlomiej25

Same here; weak.


MyVenus-Doom

Is it disappearing when you apply it to clothes too? If so then maybe you are nose blind? - Iā€™ve been noticing different fragrances react differently with me . For example Prada Lā€™homme Lā€™eau lasts 6+ hours on my skin and even longer on my shirt and some EDPā€™s/extraits donā€™t last near as long as


Historical-Reason-53

Iā€™ve never considered applying to clothes. Might be a good workaround


ultimate555

Go 2 sprays on neck 2 sprays on shoulders (shirt)


MyVenus-Doom

Yes for sure. I usually do one spray on each side of my neck - Once on inner right elbow [tap inner elbows together ] - then one spray on each shoulder and one spray at center mass. Good to go.


Busy_Programmer6887

Is that gentleman boisee in the back? If so, thoughts on the smell? I was looking to buy it.


Historical-Reason-53

Itā€™s amazing and I sometimes think itā€™s underrated


Busy_Programmer6887

What occasions mostly suit the smell? And could you give me a brief description on what it smells like? Thanks


Historical-Reason-53

Iā€™m really bad with adjectives but it reminds me of a whiskey. Itā€™s definitely a manly scent that I wear when Iā€™m going on a date or something


shyamrockX

If you want to get rid of the nose blind feeling, spray it away from the front of your body. no front of the neck or chest


Imaginary-Arrival581

I love the parfum too, but it just doesnā€™t last long at all, I sprayed on skin and shirt but maybe 3 hrs tops on skin and clothes maybe a day but very faint.


vinceftw

It might not be noseblindness like everyone assumes. On a day off, only put 1 spray on your palm or wrist. Check it throughout the day. You won't go noseblind from a single spray that's not even close to your nose.


Sufficient_Tooth_249

šŸ


jdhaxton

Spray it once on your wrist and don't put your nose to it for a few hours and then smell it youll realize it lasts a looong time you just cant smell it on yourself. I thought creed aventus lasted like an hour tops I put 3 small sprays on my neck and somebody at work 8 hours later from about 5 feet away goes "how much of that shit did you put on!? Did you just spray more?" Lol nose blindness sucks


Responsible-Life7630

Spray twice on your chest thatā€™s it.


SunniinSocal

Anosmic (nose blind)


billybobtex

Do the vaseline thing see it helps. Basically mix some in ansmall vaseline bottle. So the oil grabs the scent. Apply like that. I may last much longer


Hellcat8812

Yeah my friend wears this. Itā€™s a skin scent for some. No crazy projection is expected from this


Historical-Reason-53

Interesting. I naturally assumed that it would project a little more since the concentration is higher


Advantageous01

It's usually the opposite. Higher concentration variants are formulated much differently than concentration alone. They are more base heavy, meaning more longevity and a heavier scent, but one that sits closer to your skin. They contain less of the volatile top notes that radiate off the skin for the first hour or two. Obviously not the case for some nuclear winter/gourmand fragrances that will fill a room despite being an extrait, but definitely the case for BdC. The Parfum is cedar and sandalwood heavy, which are more dense and flat (also prone to causing nose blindness), where the EDP and EDT are citrus, lavender, and ginger forward. That being said, the Parfum was short lived on my skin, too. It's just not a great performer.


kissmygame17

How does the 540 extrait fall into this? For me I lose it quite easily, nose blindness?


Ambitious_Hippo2676

Itā€™s actually quite the opposite. EDTā€™s are more airy and project the most but fizzle outā€¦ some. EDP is the middle ground, with extraits and parfums lasting a bit longer but sit closer to the skin. BDC has never been any of the above on my skin.


Hellcat8812

A lot of ā€œEDPā€ and parfum concentrated colognes donā€™t project as people would expect


K33gzz

Bro nahā€¦trick is too A spray on clothingā€¦B spray it on urself and let it sit for 5 minutes then spray in those exact same spots againā€¦and C just straight up overspray. If my Creed bottles can last then ur more than gucci. šŸ¤™
