4/5 Unique“Anyone with Fahrenheit in their collection is top tier !! It's good to be different!! Will always be in my collection”
4/5“I have the milton cobalt version from Amazon. That shit is like the good old days Fahrenheit and just 5 euro / dollar. I think its better than the current version”
5/5“As someone who started the journey with fragrances like Dior Fahrenheit, jazz by YSL, kouros YSL, and many more, I have treaded along the middle eastern fragrances. There are some excellent fragrances, not just as a dupe.”
5/5“I don't know about poison by Dior but I've been wearing Fahrenheit for years and the woman love.”
5/5“I love Pure Poison! There's 36 Celsius (96.8 Fahrenheit) in my area, so I'm wearing Chloe's Verbena because it's not in your face and feels very refreshing.”
4/5 LongevitySweetness“I have Stetson, be aware that it is very powdery. To me it smells like a sweet baby powder but it's kinda good. I also have Fahrenheit my batch is from 2025 and it's on the weaker side. It hardly projects and doesn't last long. Same for drakkar noir but at 15$-20$ a bottle it's not really an issue. So yeah just a bit of info. You also might want to add YSL kouros to your list”
4/5“Fahrenheit still pretty good, my first use was in 1996 or so. Bought it again in january 2026. 👍👍👍”
4/5 Everyday“Same here, my signature is Bad Boy Le Parfum. I've grown to enjoy even the most polarizing scents like Joop! Homme and Dior Fahrenheit. Life is too short to stick to hype, trying new things is the way to go!”
5/5“I love it, it's smooth and balanced. I like the violet leaf in the open which reminds me a tiny bit of Fahrenheit which is also a favorite. I have not tried your version but some say the parfum is an easier wear.”
5/5“I love it, which is why I've got Fahrenheit and Montblanc Legend EdP in regular rotation.”
4/5“Same here but my Moby Dick is Fahrenheit EDT. I have Sapil Disclosure and it‘s a great scent but it didn‘t scratch my itch for the original, just like Milton Lloyd The Man Cobalt.”

Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Ceylon Gardens is such a sleeper pick nobody talks about it enough. got mine few weeks back and i reach for it more than stuff i paid 4x for how close does his Fahrenheit alt get to the real thing? been burned by too many clone houses promising that leather note and delivering gasoline instead”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Can't say I smoke Cigars myself but out of my collection I would definitely pair it with Fahrenheit Parfum or Tom Ford Ombré Leather.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Date nightNight out“It is the Parfum so not the usual Fahrenheit. Evenings going out, date night.. I'll be wearing it more as it gets colder.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Value“Dior Fahrenheit 130$ YSL kouros 100$ Prada paradigm 160$ Mancera cedrat boisée intense 120 $ Mancera wild leather 80$ Acqua di Gio le parfum 160$ Chanel égoïste platinum 170$ Quorum silver 20$ Approximate price in Canadian dollars. That would be my collection I think”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“None of the CVS's in my area have anything to write home about. I picked up a decent bottle of fahrenheit but that was the extent of it.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Please bring back Polo Crest and the original Fahrenheit. My favorites (that I own) are Tom Ford's Metallique and Beau de Jour.”

Not rated (no clear sentiment) Value“I wear that Fahrenheit and Joop weekly still. I'm Always find cheap bottles of obsession at Burlington. I Just grabbed a 5oz spray deodorant at Ross today for 3.99”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I guess I have to try out Fahrenheit, out of my scents I would say Azzaro pour homme. Smells like and old school Dude.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Homme Parfum is a benchmark for that classic, sophisticated warmth in my books. But when I'm wanting something with a bit more zing, I reach for Fahrenheit EDT.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Office“They are: Fahrenheit EDT (fits any situation imo), Sauvage Extrait, Royal Tobacco. I wear the first two to the office or pretty much anywhere, anyway, and RT I would wear anywhere but not often to the office (and if so, one spray only).”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Probably the smokiness in Portrayal reminding you of Fahrenheit. But that's about it. Beyond that, Portrayal is a violet focused fragrance through and through. Coincidentally my SOTD!”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I heard raves about Fahrenheit. I blind bought the edt. The same, I felt like if someone lit a match near me, I'd blow up. I just don't get it.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) HeadachesOffice“The fragrances I currently use are Azzaro the most wanted parfum, Dior Fahrenheit, but these are my night scent and day scents. For the office I use Mandarina Duck Black, but recently it gives me nausea and I just can't explain why and I have to ditch it.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Batches & reformulation“I have batches from 1990-1991 of Kouros and Fahrenheit.”
