shall be investing in Creed Irish tweed tomorrow, do like their fragrances, and would never have heard about them if I hadn't read this thread Shame they are £200+ each....

I really like Green Irish Tweed but to me it smells too similar to Cool Water to justify the price, I already have Aventus and next on my list is Millesime, I love the metallic tang of it.
I also use Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille that is potent stuff, it stays on clothes for days if not weeks, actually it stays until you wash them.

Yeah heard good things, can't get it down here (cornwall) for a tester, might just risk it for a biscuit or buy a £20 mini spray (they are awesome for putting in my briefcase for meetings)

A combination of Lynx Africa and Brut.

As in, an alternation of the two? Or do you literally combine them and splash it on?

Kobi · 1 Oct 2014 at 15:46

Both at the same time. Africa for the girls, Brut for the ladies. Works every time.

Have a thing for Bulgari Eau Parfumee Au Thé Rouge at the moment. The only downside with the Eau De Colgne is that the smell wears off a bit too soon for my liking. I have some of the body lotion on order though and the smell lasts a whole lot longer with that.

Wish it was easier to get hold of in the UK though..eBay tends to be the best place to get it at the moment.

Creed Millesime Imperial doesn't have a metallic tang, MI has a watermelon and sea salt vibe. Its Silver Mountain water that has the metallic tang.

This didn't get enough love.

I like, Kiton.

For deodorant I use either L'oreal extreme fresh or Sure F1 Lotus special edition because it has a similar smell to Kiton.

I've never understood the love for joop, it just reminds me of being a pubescent teenager. Grown men smelling like that is odd to me.

Yeah it's far from cheap, and I generally don't wear it out and about, it's very much a business scent for me, suits; suits perfectly
