Soleil de Capri by Montale

This reminds me slightly of light blue by D&G. Very wearable imo for a man. A beautiful scent for warm weather. I was just trying this out and this female told me that I smell so wonderful. Light, fruity.

Fougères Marines by Montale

Wow! This has the ability to stop people in their tracks, impress women and watch their eyes roll to the back of their heads. Fougeres marine is a salty marine scent. Many compare this to creeds green irish tweed and to coolwater. I love it

Catalyst for Men by Halston

A cozy spicey bitter musk. Starts off slightly fruity and sweet. A sure masculine scent. It has its fans.

Odeur 53 by Comme des Garçons

Good 1. When I'm on the last wearing of my sample, it impresses me. From neutral to thumbs up. Still a different approach with this 1, with this house.

Obsession by Calvin Klein

Provocative and bold. Applied lightly and obsession shows why its a masterpiece. For romantic situations or when a woman wants to have a man stop in their tracks when they pass bye.

Jaïpur Homme by Boucheron

Classy oriental. Spices playin around in creamy vanilla. I had a sample a few years back and I've been meaning to get a bottle of this. This is a juice that I would add to my wardrobe for sure.

Curve Crush for Women by Liz Claiborne

Yup a shocker and for the low price. I know A female that wore this a lot and it smells pretty good. Good enough for me to give her a compliment when I really can't stand the girl

Spark for Men by Liz Claiborne

Spark is 1 I like comin from the claiborne line. I tried this a few years back so I can't pinpoint remembering much about it but I do remember sayin that it smells pretty good and not too long I was at tj maxx and passed spark up for gucci nobile, is I see spark again I may buy it and for the low price they say, why not.

Bora Bora for Men by Liz Claiborne

Tried a few years ago and it didn't get my attention not one bit. Smells so basic.

Mambo for Men by Liz Claiborne

Imo it smells like this was something they just threw together. No for me

By Man by Dolce & Gabbana

By smells like something warm on my skin. I can detect that trashy lavender blend in there as well. Its not potent on me at all as others say it is on them. Only thing I don't like about this juice is that it wears so close to the skin but it works very well in the warm weather. I spray this kinda heavy and I'm good and I give by a 7 out of 10

Geir by Geir Ness

My first review was a rush judgement. The first spray, and it was wonderful. After testing and testing and the great reviews are in my head as well so I'm thinking everybody smells it and loves it but , nobody is really making a comment. So as of today. It doesent last very long on me as I thought it did I say 5 hours,which is fine but I was thinking maybe 8 or more hours. For the most part it does stay close to the skin. And as with comments, not many at all but the few comments I did get were fantastic. Lots of vanilla but its done so smoothly. Indeed GEIR is a wonderful juice imo and not that superb as all the talk imo. Do I think its worth buying? Yes

Laila by Geir Ness

Don't really care for white florals but, the drydown pulls me back in. I like it

Tea for Two by L'Artisan Parfumeur

Brilliant. Ran out of my sample too soon, that's because I kept putting it on, I couldn't get enough of it. Very soothing. And yes, I'm going to buy a bottle of this tea

Givenchy Gentleman by Givenchy

To me something turns me off about this 1 it may be the patchouli in it. Its too much. There are soo many other scents out there that I put before this 1 and I would rather wear. Would I buy this? Noo

Candie's Men by Candie's

I first smelled this in a magazine. I had to get it and wasnt happy at all. The notes don't flow smooth its like when you spray it on, the notes start fighting with each other. Smells like a hand full of frags all mixed in 1 bottle.

Dzing! by L'Artisan Parfumeur

Dzing does kinda smell like something alive at first. Its very different and special. I wanna buy a full bottle then I said no that's ok. But its growing on me and I'm loving it more and more. So it looks like I'm buying dzing when I get a chance. Its a special frag

Passage d'Enfer by L'Artisan Parfumeur

Creepy. Thinking about old castles and churches and how would they smell. Like others described pde do bring that to mind. Well put together but it fade too quickly for me.
23 March 2006

Méchant Loup by L'Artisan Parfumeur

Starts off like burning hazelnuts then quickly calms down to a creamy hazelnut with a little honey smell. But it doesn't last long at all
23 March 2006

Comme des Garçons 2 by Comme des Garçons

I can't see a man wearing this, and I've smelled better scents on women. To me the scent is confused with itself. Very different, but I guess that's cdg's motto. As with odour 53, I don't give it thumbs down because I can't understand it or know the path its taking. I will use up my sample and if I don't feel it then I will walk away from it.

Armani Code / Black Code by Giorgio Armani

Although it smelt like bug spray on me, I've smelt it on others and it smells pretty good. So now I have a change of heart with black code.

Chrome by Azzaro

Nothing special at all a lot of hype though and I forgive those that don't know no better. What I can say is that it has sillage.

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana

Its a nice scent. Flowers and orange in it. A summer scent and one that a female should not wear regularly imo.

Rochas Man by Rochas

Rochas man is a seductive player on my roster. It will get attention for sure. I needed a scent in this catagory and amen is just a little too popular around my way sooo HM or rochas man and I chose rochas I'm satisfied with it. I will run out of it very soon and I will have to decide again and maybe I will go with hm this time just to change up. But saying nothing bad about rochas because I do like it. Besides it has knocked dreamer and envy to the back of the dresser. Mocha and burn sugar ,ummm and something else that is good and I can't describe that makes this a wonderful scent

Cuiron Pour Homme by Helmut Lang

This is smooth. And I couldn't understand why my wife likes cuiron but its growing on me and its different than all my other frags that I own right now. Though I have to apply more of cuiron to get it to stay on me. Members here opened my eyes to a great scent and thank you. My wife is a very hard test to pass and cuiron is what she likes and that says a lot. As of now cuiron is my flagship or a star on my roster and I'm going to build around this star, dzing,geir, and cherigui are soon to be added to the roster

Acqua di Giò pour Homme by Giorgio Armani

I wanted to say no completely only because its sooo popular..I use to wear it back around 2000 until I was at a mall and I smelled it around a group of teenagers. And that's when I said its time to move on. Bottom line is that its a nice scent but for the younger croud and if you wanna smell like everybody else, hey I bought my 15 year old nephew a bottle this past christmas. And he loves it in fact those girls are going crazy over him in school and aqua plays a part in that...

360 Degrees for Men by Perry Ellis

When you first encounter 360 yes its too loud and all but listen..after its applied and a half hour you will arrive to a beautiful place where a light wind blows and the water is as blue as the 360 you applied. Just leave all your worries behind for a while till you get back. But you have to let your mind take you to that place , the scent is there isn't it..

Givenchy pour Homme Blue Label by Givenchy

I stop wearing it because too many people wears it and I like to be different.I give it thumbs up becaus it does smell good has a fresh scent .besides when I did wear it I got countless comments..now my sons wears it to school.I bet their teachers be sayin "man these boys smell good" and they're in the 3rd and 2nd grade.

Envy for Men by Gucci

Envy is 1 of my top frags on my growing roster.you know when you're in a public place and going through a doorway you get a tight squeeze if two people are passing through at the same time.anyway I was comming in the room and this woman was leaving and she was talking to another lady as they were leaving and as envy was upon her she stopped talking and she stood in the doorway for bout 3 seconds and a look on her face as if something had took her breath away.breath taking.....good stuff

Obsession for Men by Calvin Klein

I remember back in the mid 80s.I was in middle school and I fell in love with obsession I wore it and it continued throughout high school and then some.that's the scent people said whenever they smell it somewhere that it reminded them of me..a true seduction.lol I wore it year round and on those summer nights especially in the heat of the moment or whenever the skin heats up that's when obsession steps up and takes over.like it activates something and it shines on rainy days too.I keeps a bottle of this

The Dreamer by Versace

Didn't understand it at first and didn't like it but it grew on me.I understand it nowi get compliments.there was a woman just hanging around me.she was acting mysterious.but then I figured it out that the dreamer had lured her in..its oriental like they say wit some tobacco and sweetness and the top notes I can smell some flower..I have 11 frags and growing I have a top 3 right now and dreamer falls in my top three.

Curve for Men by Liz Claiborne

Too much green.had it for 3 years and I haven't wore it 10 times.I don't like it myself the smell makes me sick at times
17 January 2006

Nobile by Gucci

Umm.when I first tried it it was ok and that has been bout 2 months ago and I haven't wore it since.I don't know its just too stout or somethin or as my wife says somethin a older man would wear.I have mixed feelings bout this 1.maybe I need 2 just wear it for a week straight(put it through the test) and see what happens.but right now I hate it but the good reviews that it has on here makes me think maybe it will grow on me...I prefer gucci envy over nobile today

Yeeeeea!! This beautiful lady that works at this italian resturant stopped when I gave her my card to pay for my food and out her mouth she said d and g and I said yeeeeea!! She said ooooh! I love that smell...I like the compliment but that she knew what it was I wasn't too happy with that though..bottom line of course yes yes yes
