Yes, but it depends on price. Expensive frags that do not last are not worth it. Cheapies that you can carry and reapply, no problem.

I recently picked up a used sample set from Pineward for cheap, they're an indie brand that focuses on the note of pine! I love most of the frags I've smelled so far, but they are suuuuuuper expensive. ~$200 for a 57ml, I haven't seen any of them on any discounters sadly. They're all beast mode so far, I've smelled them pretty strongly 12+ hours later! This is with 1-2 sprays from the sample vials, the strength of these frags is insane. Anyways, some of the highlights so far: Christmas Wine: Super brisk and fruity fresh, it perfectly captures the smell of a Christmas wreath with warm, scented candles around. I always had wreaths during Christmas time, and this frag brings me back to my childhood. Fanghorn II: The best and most photorealistic green pine forest fragrance I've ever smelled to date. I'm immediately taken back to my hikes in the forests: there's tan pine needles all over the ground, you have to watch your step, otherwise you might trip on a root. No civilization in sight, trees and the sound of birds all around. Easily my favorite one so far. Chandlery: Beeswax and vanilla make for the most photorealistic candle smell I've gotten in a frag. Rich, waxy, thick, and sweet, this is a grandma's home. Warm, comforting, but a bit overwhelming for me. The waxiness and sweetness kind of filled the room with the few sprays I used.

Performance certainly matters, but I still prioritize scent and how much I like a fragrance first. From there, a full bottle purchase decision hinges on how the scent works for what I want to wear it for (I don't need or want everything I own to be beast mode). Killer rotation as always 🔥 My rotation: Molecule 01+ Ginger Nishane Hacivat X Mancera French Riviera Chanel AHSEE Versace Pour Homme Montale Aqua Palma Juliet Has a Gun Sunny Side Up

Performance…I think it depends on what role you want your fragrance to play. When you’re young and single it makes sense to want something that draws attention to yourself. As you get older it’s more and more about personal enjoyment. I’m 58 and happily married and I honestly do not enjoy compliments because I really don’t want to draw attention from strangers. Sooooo performance doesn’t matter to me in the least.

I actually love the original for that very reason. When I first got into this, I tried a sample of Le male edt and thought “how original” because I never smelled anything like it. So I enjoy it for that.

@@cradd7108 The EDT really smells quite a bit different than the Parfum (which I also love). The EDT is a great office frag when you’re dressed up - which is when I wear it. It’s definitely got that 90’s vibe, but it’s classy AF.

I'm big on performance. I can LOVE a scent - like North Stag IV (the orange one)- it has the most amazing photo realistic mandarin scent.. But if the performance sucks - like North Stag IV- it sits in the display and I'll check it once a year to see if it's ready to come and play on my terms... I hate reapplying. I need a good 6-7 hours before I consider a fragrance worth it, but I'll wear the 10 hour scents more often.

I think the emphasis on performance is quite overrated - it depends on the function of the fragrance. If I’m going out for only 3-4 hours then there’s no real upside in me wearing a scent that lasts 8+ hours. I usually break up fragrances by function & use purpose
