kenneth cole - reaction

issey miyake - leau d'issey

I like Cuir Mauresque by Serge Lutens. Here's a link to my fragrance wardrobe. If there's anything in particular you're interested in don't hesitate to ask.

Maharlika- that link just takes you to your own wardrobe (if you're a basenotes member, it wont take you anywhere if you're not member there). To add a link to your own 'drobe, you need to copypaste your member number (those digit at the end of the url if you go to your profile over at BN) to the end of the link.

 

[matadorpoeta]

lanvin - l'homme
christian dior - eau sauvage
hermes - rocabar
geoffrey beene - grey flannel
paco rabanne - original

but scent is a very personal thing.

I'm currently digging John Varvatos (original, not the new "Vintage" one).

Aqua De Gio (Yes, everyone wears it, but I'll be damned if it doesnt smell good)


The greatest cologne, IMO, is M7. But when it doesnt work it reeks spectacularly.

 

[ts4them]

+1 for Aqua Di Gio (I didn't realize everyone wore it).

 

[Thomas]

IMHO

For spicy - Hermes Bel Ami
For fresh - Chanel Platinum Egoiste
All-around - Chanel Antaeus

But there are tons to choose from, we each have our own preferences, and - your body chemistry will play a role in whether a scent 'works' with you or not. Try before you buy.

Hermes Eau D'Orange Verte
Citrusy and herbal. Very masculine.

 

[wq1999]

Dior Eau Sauvage
Creed Silver Mountain Water
Creed Bois Portugal
Guerlain Eau Imperial

it's continuously been the number-one-selling men's fragrance in the USA since its release in 1996. Hardly "a distincive aroma" or "a signature scent" any more.

Use to wear the channel colognes until an ex got me hooked on Bond Street the Wall Street bottle is my fav I get many compliments on it. There pricey but, last longer then the regular ones
