Very proud of you and your journey. I was on GLP-1 before I brought fragrances back into my life, so I can't make an accurate judgment as to the effect it had.

Fair point — hard to isolate one variable when a lot's changing at once. Either way, sounds like fragrance found its way back to you at the right time.

Type 2 Diabetic here, been on Mounjaro for around 18 months now. Never cared for fragrance at all until I was on my weightloss journey. Down five stone since I started (seven stone since my heaviest), and was drawn into fragrance collecting through deep gourmands almost exclusively. My palette has broadened since I started, but when I first read about the connection between GLP-1 and Fragrance Enjoyment, I felt absolutely seen. Just under two stone to go for me. Bloods at their best ever. Looking and feeling great. 👍

Seven stone down is huge, man. Great call gravitating toward the deep gourmands — that's a real shift. Keep going.
SOTD- Thursday July 23rd: Coach Pure Platinum Parfum
Picked this up a couple months ago when it launched, and I’m glad I did. The high today is only 75 degrees Fahrenheit where I live, so it’s a nice, cool summer day, which is perfect for this scent profile. It’s nothing groundbreaking, but man it smells great. Similar style as Ralph’s Club NY or Prada Paradigme in that it’s a designer fragrance that will get a lot of compliments. I’d say it’s linear and not super complex. It’s sweet, woody, and dry. I get about 6-7 hours on skin before it’s a skin scent. Projection is moderate with 1-2 feet for about 4-5 hours. Sillage is really good. I’ve had two people at the office tell me I smelled great as I walked by. That’s pretty good for one day at my office before lunchtime. Again, it’s nothing groundbreaking, but if you’re looking for something that just smells good and is a crowd pleaser, this definitely fits that scenario. If you’re out and about at a Coach store or a fragrance shop and they have this newest version “Pure Platinum Parfum,” give it a try.

Solid pickup. Coach's Ralph's Club/Prada Paradigme lane is underrated for a crowd-pleaser designer at this price. Two office compliments before lunch is a great sign on the sillage. What's the dry-down like after hour 6?
GLP-1- A Sweet, Sercretive Influencer of Fragrances?
It is incredible how the universe connects the dots of our healing when we finally step into the light. Only this week, I experienced a beautiful moment of clarity about how my health journey has unlocked an entirely new, unexpected dimension of my life. Out of deep respect for everyone’s private health battles, I believe our medical remedies are sacred and personal. But today, I feel guided to share a piece of my own revelation. As a diabetic, my recent check-up brought overwhelming gratitude. My health is thriving—miles ahead of where I stood in the dark days of late 2022. That shift happened because I finally chose to love myself on every level: through therapy, deep spiritual awakening, and shedding the physical and emotional weight of a 300-pound man. I stopped dressing to hide my shame and started dressing to celebrate my existence. In the Spring of 2023, right before finding my community here, the fog began to lift. For the first time in years, I could see my own neck. I could look past the "Daddy belly" and see my own feet. Simultaneously, my soul was seeking a new sensory language. I finished my very first bottle of DedCool’s Milk. Looking back, I realize how symbolic that was. My entire fragrance collection was filled with sharp aquatics, salty notes, and crisp scents. Yet, during this profound era of rebirth, I was inexplicably curiously drawn to the warmth, sweetness, and comfort of gourmand fragrances. This curiosity led me to a perfumer called Pinrose, where I took their sensory quiz to find my signature scent. I was skeptical at first. I took the quiz a few more times to be sure, screenshotting the results before purchasing their discovery set. When it finally arrived in those nostalgic, old-school fragrance wipes, the results were uncanny. I drifted heavily toward Pillowtalk Poet, while the quiz's top recommendation for me—Secret Genius—was absolutely spot-on, though I didn't fully understand why at the time. Recently, curiosity led me back to the site. I assumed that after two years of immense personal growth, my aromatic palate would have completely changed. But nothing had changed at all.

Man, this is powerful. Respect for putting something this personal out there. Makes total sense — your body was already speaking that language, the meds just turned the volume up. Congrats on the progress. Love that you're dressing to celebrate now instead of hiding. That's the real transformation.
Man of the House
Jacques Bogart “Signature” is the first (1975) offering from this house, dedicated to rugged masculine fragrances until the 2000s. All of those early fragrances, except Pour Homme, which is both masculine and refined, are screechy, loud, and unrefined. And inexpensive. In 1975 they would be worn by, and were worn by, CEOs in boardrooms. Today they would be worn by the Hell’s Angels. Like many fragrances of the time, this is a gorgeous pre-IFRA oakmoss bomb that includes leather, smoke, and animalics. You get earthiness and spices in the drydown. This is a discontinued fragrance, but my bottle has almost certainly been reformulated. Yet the original ruggedness survives. The projection is good and the longevity is 4-6 hours. Bogart is a man’s house and has produced no female-marketed fragrances. In 1975 no woman would’ve been caught dead wearing this. Probably wouldn’t be today either. There’s nothing remotely sweet or fresh or crisp or clean or blue about this. Later in the 2000s Bogart shifted, not away from masculine fragrances but toward nightclubbing frags like Silver Scent/Intense and some of the later One Man Show flankers (but not One Man Show Oud Edition, which has the most gorgeous plasticy synthetic oud imaginable). If you’re going out motorcycling or backpacking or mountain-climbing or boxing or splitting wood, this would be most appropriate. Or if your wife or girlfriend, like my wife, loves these fragrances because they smell like what her dad wore in the 50s to 70s, it would be a great date-night fragrance. In any case, let the oakmoss rule.

Great write-up, man. Pre-IFRA oakmoss like that just doesn't exist anymore — that's basically unicorn juice at this point. Leather, smoke, and animalics together is exactly why guys still chase these vintage Bogarts. Solid call on the date-night angle too.
