Great list! Especially the sunscreen, took me too long to get to wear it daily, the sun is really the #1 cause of premature skin aging. Couple of things to add: - On the basics: sleep. So damn underrated. It affects your body on so many levels: repairing of tissues damaged during the day (by...

Maybe the trick was Popeye forearms all along.

But you can change that with inpainting using another model, yes?

I'm impressed it got the hands and feet mostly right. Still got some issues with textures, skin and clothes, gotta watch out for that. Also, I think you're not seeing big enough: why wouldn't you make pictures you'd have a hard time getting in real life, like you speaking at a business event...

Hwyl is my go-to for winter business/office frag.

For anybody considering buying, I remember smelling a difference between the eau de parfum and parfum (black vs. gold flask, the latter being more concentrated), eventually deciding for the parfum. Check both out in case. I really love their Coriander body cleanser, but by the time I'm putting...

Rule of thumb is, perfumes with deep scents like wood, whisky, tobacco, leather, are good for cold weather, whereas perfumes with sharp scents like citrus, marine and herbal are good for hot weather. The idea is that deep scents on hot weather can mix up with the deep scent of your own warming...

That one is reaaaaally frag dependent. Some frags you spray once on your neck and the whole room fills with it. Others you cover yourself with 15 sprays and only the girl in your arms will smell it. Keep in mind the eau de toilette < eau de parfum < elixir concentration ladder. My rule of thumb...

Also, to answer the initial question, I ever only received one compliment on my frags. In my late 20s, was walking on the street on my way to a date, a college girl passed me by jogging and let out a "you smell nice!" Core memory lol. The frag was A*Men Pure Havane by Thierry Mugler. I now find...

A great opinion opener, especially in the spot you're shopping for frag: "how familiar are you guys with men's fragrances? Is there like one or two you've smelled so often you now think it's overused?"

Honestly looks like a great profile. I'd drop #1 and replace it with #4 following @ThelegendofJ 's advice, those pics are redundant in effect, and in general outdoor pics are better than indoor. Pic #5 would be great zooming in on you, I have no idea about the red/blue stuff on the side but it...

I hear ya, been there done that myself, until I realized it's 100% a me problem (in your case a you problem), as in, I'm the one deciding which girl I choose to pursue and spend my time and energy on. You're totally right, "keep an open mind" is BS and any guy with enough experience will tell...

I like the 1st one the most, looks candid, like it was taken as you were gonna grab something in your backpack. Love the contrast between you (bright) and the background (dark), makes it easy to read. Also highlights your muscles without being a "hey look at me I'm puffed" kinda pic.

Grabbed it from the local BnB. Praise the Lord they got it in 15ml version. If every brand selling fragrance would align themselves to that format I'd be buying more, I love the diversity and, given the number of bottles I already have, I won't buy any full ones before long.

Not a texting expert, but what works more often for me is being funny, concise and direct: start with a funny cold read on one of her pics or funny comment (your example is good but has one line too much, go directly to your second line). If she doesn't have much material you can cold read with...
