Daim Blond by Serge Lutens Les Salons du Palais Royal Shiseido

absolutely WOW!! soft, sexy, sensual suede/leather notes that blend with musk right into my skin and smell like i am exuding my own natural aroma! the part that makes it so nice is that the leather notes are soft...so many leather oriented scents go a bit strong..definitely the type of scent that i call a 'snuggle scent'..it makes you want to snuggle up to whomever is wearing it and breathe it in!
like another reviewer wrote..reminiscent of donna karan fuel...but more refined!

Opium pour Homme Eau de Parfum by Yves Saint Laurent

i HAVE smelled the edt version and after owning the edp all i can say is uh-uh, no way! it's not bad but the edp has some differences..much richer and longer lasting...you will smell this on you the next day after a nice night out! musky, oriental, sexy, rich...where does one find it now??

Miel de Bois by Serge Lutens Les Salons du Palais Royal Shiseido

like ipaidforthisname i also love the scent of honey(unfortunately mechant loup did NOT cut it for me!)i have so many 'honey' scents...this scent is definitely heavy on the miel..by heavy i don't mean it is a heavy fragrance...actually the opposite..a nice light,musky kind of honey
the instant it arrived i sprayed it all over..something about the fragrance of honey says 'sexy' to me. i'm not refined enough to pick up the wood notes, but i didn't buy it for them!!
strangely enough i was gardening and was bent down quite close to some alyssum i have growing and realized that "miel de bois" smells intriguingly like those little flowers!
the only thing i am unhappy with is this scent doesn't seem to last on me

Anice by Etro

very delcious light anice licorice fragrance...reminds me of some cookies my italian grandmother kept around the house..also somewhat like lolita lempicka for men but much simpler. light, masculine, spring/summer fragrance...and of course sexy and sensual!

M7 by Yves Saint Laurent

this scent really needs the right type of man to go with it..it truly is serious yet sexual. kind of an incense-y musk smell. i was quite grateful to YSL for bringing this out as they discontinued a previous fragrance that i consdered 'the one' for me(opium pour homme in the e.d.p..i love it!) it is not necessarily a similar fragrance but there is something about both that appeals to me in an intensely sexy way.
fragrance for a man that is, at once, playful, seductive, mysterious and always confident!
