Tabac Original by Mäurer & Wirtz
This is an inexpensive classic - the top note is the best - SOAPY - THE best mid price men's scent - the EDT is not as good as the aftershave - one of the best bottles around too - lovely "sprinkler" The drydown goes a bit powdery though - when I run out of this guess what I'll do......................................

Oxygene Homme by Lanvin
very fresh with a fruity marine note. I can smell the coriander in the top note clearly. Not too long lasting though. Similar to Happy for men. Still - it's well worthy of a squirt

Ahhhh Cacharel pour Homme
Spicy and, yes it's unique - you know it if you get waft of this juice
It's a grower too - you may not like it at first but, after a while you want to wear it again and again
I'm out of this at the moment - must get some more.............

Elements Aqua by Hugo Boss
Just got this one
Sweet, likeable, a bit like a light version of Givenchy Xeryus Rouge (on the basenotes)
It's growing on me as we speak
I think this is going to change as it warms on the skin - good one!
