Angel by Thierry Mugler

My gran wears this, bless her . She's diabetic and loves mirangues. It smells like diabetes would if it had a smell.

212 Sexy Man by Carolina Herrera

unfortunately this smells like body odour. I know some people say that and you think "Thats ridiculous" but in this case this actually does smell like body odour. It smells like boys changing rooms; the smell of sweat mixed with lynx body spray. Its disgusting, it really is.

Burberry the Beat for Men by Burberry

AWFUL! and i usually love Burberry scents (Brit and London are both in my top 5). This gives me a headache and it smells grubby.

Brit for Men by Burberry

This is just brilliant. Cant understand any negativity. Smells Christmassy and leaves you feeling warm and content. Cant praise it enough. To prolong longevity i recommend layering it with the balm.

Le Mâle by Jean Paul Gaultier

I do like this, but i dont think id wear it out and about. I think id be too self conscious. But i enjoy it when im alone.
Problems with it seeming too strong can be solved with just one spray though... even though you are still likely to be able to notice it, it wont be quite so much like a punch in the nose. Jacomo rouge is a much lighter and easy going version of this, id give that a try.

A friend of mine wears this. It sets my migraines off. Truly awful.

Diesel Zero Plus by Diesel

So long as you dont over apply, this stuff is amazing! Lasts 12 hours+. Can still be got dirt cheap but smells classy. God knows why its been discontinued.

Gucci Pour Homme II by Gucci

Absolutely gorgeous! Up there with my favourites, its one of the only fragrances where i can pick out every listed note perfectly as it dries down... It doesnt seem to last long, but its very subtle and i think maybe your nose gets used to the scent after a while.

It may not be "cutting edge" but i really don't care, its beautiful!

Burberry London for Men by Burberry

Wow, this ones amazing! one of my very favourites! Definately for Autumn/Winter. It has a definate "christmassy" feel to it.
Only problem is it doesn't last very long on me, but very few colognes do!

Pi by Givenchy

I really tried to like this, i still do want to like it, but whenever i wear it i feel "sticky" almost... It's totally imaginary obviously but its like ive been dunked in honey... Im sure you'll love it if you like sweet fragrances though. It does last a long time.

Jaïpur Homme by Boucheron

I bought this blind (i know, dim of me) after reading it described as "beautiful". Dont get me wrong, its all down to personal opinion and i totally respect that, but to me this is totally rancid! The strongest cologne i have ever encountered. The first (and only) time i offended a room of seven people to the point where i might as well have called them a bunch of c***s!!

If you like more subtle fragrances, DO NOT buy this... even the smallest amount could give you a really bad head ache.
