What was your scent today V. what's that stank??

i'm a big big fan of the Burberry Brit, but the last bottle i got was Burberry Weekend. It's lighter and doesn't linger. They both smell f-ing fantastic on me, but everyone has there own Ph, and somethings smell like poo on others.
 
Most/Least Favourite Eau de Toilette & Perfume?

Not sure if this is the right forum but hey, I'll post here anyway :)

So what are your favourite and most despised fragrances, and why?
 
There is already a cologne thread here in SO for you reading...
Best Cologne?

Plus, a five page thread in The Lounge
Smells like teen spirit! aka Favourite perfume/cologne


My favorite, that is all I wear and all I have worn in the last 12 months is Opium, Yves St Laurent, Men's Parfum. NB The Parfum (which is very uncommon) NOT the EDT which is terrible :)

Its strong, but not overpowering. I love it, and more importantly so do the laaadies :D
 
These are the scents I keep going back to year after year after year....(I'm a cologne fanatic and I love trying out everything...but these are what truly have staying power for me).

Gap Dream
Bulgari for Men
Clinique Happy for Men (this smells so good on me)
Givenchy Tartine et Chocolat in Blue
Origins Ginger Essence
Body Shop's Juba (oil, not a eau de toilette, but so fucking good)
Acca Kappa White Moss Eau de Cologne
BBW Mango Mandarin, Refreshing Garden Mint, Aloe and Clover, Lemon & Basil, Ginger Orange (some are discontinued.. Bah! )

I dont like heady, heavy, cloying scents at all with too much musk or chypre or aldehydes..I like them fresh and clean.
 
Hehe thanks for the move and merge. I did try the search engine first for cologne & fragrance but neded up with a bunch of results for "smell of sassafras oil" etc :)

Edit: have been wearing calvin klein escape and chrome legend by azzaro but looking for something different. I'll have a looksie (well smell really) at some mentioned in this thread :D

Call me tasteless but my favourite is good ol' Old Spice Aftershave :)

I also liked something a guy was wearing, I asked him what it was and he said Bulgari, but I'm not sure, I should check into it :).
 
^ Yep, I can now confirm that it was Bulgari for Men... I just bought myself a small bottle a couple of days ago and it actually had a dramatic impact on my sex life, with my partner commenting on how I smelled good =D.

I can see how it would work for a woman.

It is a very gay (in a good way :D) fragrance, IMO. It is savagely masculine, yet passive-aggressive, and with the subtlest hint of femininity. Perfect! hehe
 
Green Irish Tweed, ive stretched out my bottle for 9 years, delicious, but expensive. 9 years though, with some to spare makes it worth every penny.



Top Notes -
Lemon, Verbena.

Middle Notes -
Iris, Violet Leaves.

Base Notes -
Mysore Sandalwood, Ambergris.

i keep bulgari, and hugo boss around as well, but i like making my own, which is usually a amber(gris) and gets compliments often.

i really like patchouli and rose, normally i cant stand most patchouli, but with a good amount of rose in the combination the two take on its own fragrance.
 
What was your scent today V. girls smell good

Ok I love perfume and we have a nail polish thing going on so I was thinking if anyone would like to share the favorite scents.

Today I wore DKNY Be Delicious Big Apple.....

I usually smell like beer, pot, and cigs.

But really, im an axe culprit. Just a tiny spray. My skin smells good because of my old spice body wash so i dont need much. I think colognes are too strong!
