Dew Musk by Montale
I bought this blind on ebay for a deal...I wish I didnt. Its a very boring plain scent. From first application to hours later is smells pretty much the same....like slightly fruity and musk. kinda like an old ladys hair spray. maybe montale made this for an old lady who wanted a classic old lady scent? anyway montale is capable of making a much better parfum then this. i would say its supposed to be in the same lines as mure et musc....just fruit and musk. where mure et musc is amazing blackberry and musk this is a not so amazing kinda cherry fruit punch and musk with a very slight powdery to give it that old lady smell. i would say this one would be an aquired smell.

Black Aoud by Montale
black aoud.....it's harsh and pungent yet beautiful and well blended. it's complex yet it's simple. it's rose! yet it's masculine! i cant stand it but i love it!
that about sums it up lol anyone who has tried this understands.

Boise Vanille by Montale
this montale is one of the best IMO. It is very very hard to explain this one. Its kinda like red vetyver....but intead of using the peppery note they use in red vetyver, they use a very light touch of non sweet vanilla to blend the citrusy grapefruit and the woods together. It almost smells citrusy and powdery at the same time....kinda like side by side. thats why it is hard to explain this one......it kinda has the notion of a creamcycle.....take citrus and add a slight touch of vanilla to it.....yet it remains more of a wood citrus scent then anything.......besides all that it smells wonderful! definatly worth a try.....one of my favorite montales.

Chez Bond by Bond No. 9
this is a non evolving version of GIT with an added vanilla smell that smells very feminine. from the time you put this on to the time it fades, it smells the exact same. I cant give it a negative because it does smell great....just not on a man.

Himalaya by Creed
I think this is the best creed i have sampled so far. It has a very nice peppery soapy smell that lasts all day.I find most creeds like royal water and MI too feminine. This scent actually makes you smell good and feel masculant wearing it. To me it feels kinda like GIT but with a kick. Its not quite as boring as GIT yet still has that amazing smell that GIT has. I highly recommend this one if you want to try a creed.Like others have stated a perfectly balanced scent!

Royal Water by Creed
This is a perfect cross between fast orange degreaser hand cleaner and deep woods off. If that's your thing then this scent is for you. I find it so appauling it is almost making me sick to my stomach! i have to go shower again right now just to get it off me. I got a few samples of this on ebay. When it arrived i put a little on my wrist and was appauled at first smell. Giving Creed the benefit of the doubt i am now in my 4th hour of wearing this scent and it smells just as bad as when I put it on. These samples are going in the trash. I wouldnt even give these away.
