I use outlaw soaps blazing saddles solid cologne. Smells badass, it's subtle, and it's small enough that it can be tossed into your pocket. I love that solids tend to have more masculine or just uncommon scents. "Leather, sandalwood, gunpowder, sage, two kinds of campfire, and a little dirt."

Have not tried any from this house but it sounds interesting... Personally I have not had good results with solid perfumes in the past (just not lasting at all) but again I've not tried anything from this house so perhaps they use more oil than the others I have tried...

Solid colognes are enjoyable, but wearing them is absolutely a different experience. Specifically in the ritual of application. When you apply an alcoholic spray perfume your senses are completely overwhelmed and engulfed by the fragrance due to the initial rapid diffusion of the scent. Those highly volatile components can just hit you like a ton of bricks, in a good way. Solids just can't give you that same kind of initial, intense rush.

@voltaire5427

I’d imagine solids would be somewhat comparable to a bar of deodorant projection-wise. Do they have opening to dry down phases like liquids?

Essentially 1/3 beeswax, 1/3 carrier oil (like jojoba oil), 1/3 perfume concentrate. Extrait strength, usually.

I've been using the Duke Cannon line of solid colognes for the last eight months and I love them. Great scents that last all day long.

How did you find the sample set??

It doesn't need to just be solid to not dry out your skin. Their are oil based liquid sprays and roll ons. Do solids work as a stand alone perfume? I have heard you should use like a spray and just use a solid to touch up.(edit) went on the website and this brand actually DOES use alcohol in their solid colognes.

For me, the so-called benefits remove much of what I love about fragrances. Namely, the aesthetically wonderful bottles, the uplifting sensations unique to spraying a fragrance, and modest projection. If one knows how to wear their frags responsibly, it’s easy to be loved as the cologne guy and not dreaded as the too-much-cologne guy. If I have to put nose 0-6 inches from the application spot to smell a fragrance, it’s failed at its basic duty. I’m really glad these exist to give people more options though. Options are good. FWIW, I think everyone who wears fragrances should at least moisturize their application zones. You get a huge boost to both performance and overall scent quality.

I don't know, man. It's all about these sprays.

I love all fragrance, but I do love, solid perfumes, and colognes because they are such a great alternative for travel, putting in your purse or pocket, etc. And although they don’t have the projection and sillage fluid fragrance, that isn’t always a bad thing. Sometimes we want a very intimate scent. This is great for those times when you’re in small areas or you’re having intimate moments where you’re snuggled with your partner and a movie theater or in bed watching TV, etc. and you don’t want a lot of projection. I agree, more companies need to make solid colognes, and I love the containers. Some are refillable, but often times empty and they don’t have refills. I just use my lip balm recipe and fill it with my favorite homemade lip balm. Great. Thanks so much.

Alcohol based fragrance has over the decades created some truly amazing bottle designs and presentation. Solid fragrance in a tin? They have a long way to go as far as visual appeal and marketing is concerned. On the subject of marketing, they need to offer some free samples if they want people to buy; I have yet to see a solid fragrance for men on sale in any stores (Salvador Dali had a miniature solid perfume and soap set for ladies, the only solid fragrance I remember seeing). Also, I was under the impression, and correct me if I'm wrong, that a spray fragrance allows the various notes to evaporate at different rates, which is why the fragrance develops over time. Does this happen with solid fragrance? I would say that to make solid fragrance (for men) anything more than a novelty would require a big designer name to produce a solid fragrance with amazing design. I am now looking at my DW Home tobacco leaf candle and wondering if I should start rubbing myself all over with it...

@FragranceBros

6 жыл бұрын

no, the evaporation of fragrance notes is based on the volatility of the fragrance oils in a fragrance, not based on the application. Also candle fragrances are completely different in the way they are made, so it wouldn't make a good fragrance on your skin, much like your favorite cologne wouldn't be a good candle if you poured it into wax.

Thanks for this quality video , Dave. I am intrigued and I want to try these since there are advantages. There are two things that may keep me from taking the plunge.

I actually talked about that when I recorded, but cut it out in post. The wax is different. You need a certain type of wax for candles. But besides that, it's a lot harder to get your favorite scent as a candle because the oils usually don't work well as a candle. Many times the candle will smell faint. I don't know why--I'm sure experts in this field could explain better. But ultimately while you won't have to sacrifice to have your favorite scent as a solid, you would to have it as a candle.

Interesting! I've been dabbling a bit with mixing frag oils with a variety of materials like unscented shampoos, liquid soaps and shaving creams to see if I can customize my daily hygiene experience. In short, it works. In addition, I've also started using diffusers and even scented jewellry to supplement my experiments. However, I've recently been looking into creating custom candles and I think you're right about the wax and concentration issue. Evidently it takes a great deal of oil to make a single candle and the bonding elements in the wax play an important role. Otherwise, the heat can damage the fragrance, or else hinder the diffusion. I guess I'll stick with my diffusers for the time being! Thanks for your input Dave.
