B*Men by Thierry Mugler
This is "A*Men's" more wearable brother. Unlike its elder brother I like this one a lot. The rhubarb opening, the spicy/warm drydown. It is a sweet scent, but not to the point where it chokes you. Nice evening frag, works for the office too.

L'Eau D'Issey pour Homme by Issey Miyake
Great summer scent. Looking at the fragrance pyramid there are many elements that compose this fragrance, and I can't pick out a lot of them but this is the perfect fragrance for a scorching hot summer day.

M7 by Yves Saint Laurent
I have worn YSL's "M7" quite a few times now but I am still not sure what to think. The first time I tried it on I was taken aback by its sillage and longevity. Whatever you do, two sprays of this is more than enough. Especially if you also use the deodorant stick. The opening is heavy and sweet and throughout that heaviness remains. Given the fact that when I am writing this there are 152 reviews of "M7" there must be something about it, it seems. So far I don't think it is a bad scent, but it is somewhat overrated. Still, it's a nice scent to wear for a night out on the town in the winter.

Givenchy Gentleman by Givenchy
A great discovery. When I ordered this fragrance I was a bit concerned that it would be too heavy, unwearable. However, I do not find that to be the case at all. I love the patchouli opening. This is the perfect scent for a night out on the town. Stylish, classy. Just don't tell the rest...

Chanel Pour Monsieur by Chanel
Chanel's "Pour Monsieur" is the fragrance I reach for when I'm not sure what to wear. It is a very gentlemanlike scent. Its opening is fresh and the scent becomes a bit heavier in the drydown. It is also a scent that is very close to the skin, very discrete. A great classic, just like Guerlain's "Vetiver." 10/10!

Vetiver by Guerlain
Guerlain's "Vetiver" is definitely in my top ten. The first two or three times I wore it I was not quite sure what to think. Now it's one of the fragrances I like best (together with Chanel's "Pour Monsieur"). "Vetiver" is a great scent for the office, but it works just as well for a night out on the town. Works in the winter just like in the summer. When the weather it hot it brings out different aspects of the fragrance. A very masculine fragrance. Great vetiver, love the tobacco note too. The fragrance was launched 46 years ago yet it stands tall among today's fragrances. A must have!
