What Reddit owners say
5/5“I used to wear random stuff like axes and cremo colognes and eventually just stopped forever. Noel Deyzel started making fragrance content and i was already watching a lot of fragrance content otherwise and eventually i blind bought and overpaid for A*Men by Mugler because he hyped it up and I hadn't seen anybody ever talk about it specifically and it's incredible.”
4/5 Unique“I have backups of backups to the backups. I don't really regret any of them but to set an "I'm so proud of this" list, the golden special edition of the metal A*Men flask, the unique 2001 special metal flask edition of Jaipur Homme from Boucheron, the very recent 125ml special edition Gris Dior are all wothy a mention.”
4/5 Unique“While I agree that most new stuff is similar, you just need to know what to look for, if you want to smell something unique. I recommend checking out Boss Bottled Absolu, Mugler A*Men Fantasm, Dior Homme Parfum, Dior Homme Cologne and Givenchy Gentleman Society Ambree! Those are among some of the most unique Designers I have in my collection (that I can think of while grocery shopping lol)”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Not experienced any deteriorating frags b4. But I am only 10 months into ME frags. I have designer frags that are 20 years old and there's no pronounced deterioration. But a few have changed colour. My Thierry Mugler A*Men went from blue to green. I keep mine in their original boxes so its easier to stack and store. It's becoming a challenge for ME frags because they come in very big boxes.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I wear 20 sprays of A*Men.”

Not rated (no clear sentiment)“How do you find a mugler under 2k?😭 I've been seeing videos of a*men being 35 usd (3400 INR) but here I haven't seen it below 6.5k”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“No dude, not broke, in fact I have five vintage 120 mL Creeds, seven full-size bottles of PDM, four Xerjoffs, all the old A*Men line from the 2010's and most of what you have as well. My collection is larger and superior to yours, but I realize that spending that kind of money on perfumes is sick, and stopped myself a couple years ago.”
