Allure Homme Sport by Chanel

very nice and fresh but with depth....one of my faves. Predominant orange and cedar, lasts very well, not too overpowering either.
Nice.

Euphoria Men by Calvin Klein

Nice for everyday / work wear, not really an evening scent- remains noticable but not overpowering, relatively generic. Long lasting warmth (lasts most of the day for me).

Emporio Armani He by Giorgio Armani

Very nice, settles into a very nice subtle scent. Need to put a lot on though for it to last more than even an hour.

Axe Orion by Axe / Lynx

Tooo powerful and soapy smelling! not to my taste at all...

Lynx Dimension by Axe / Lynx

Very nice, slightly oriental and orangey with an attractive almost creosote smell to it's background. Sadly seems to have been discontinued in the UK, but I found some Axe still selling in Tenerife (Sept'06).

Axe Clix / Lynx Click by Axe / Lynx

weak and boring, no depth. Not a patch on Phoenix.

Touch for Men by Burberry

bit harsh/sharp, air freshener type. not to my liking at all. Long lasting but doesn't have much depth.

Activist by Body Shop

I'm not an expert but I think Burberry London for Men is very very similar to Activist (and similarly long lasting). Very nice if a bit overpowering.

D&G Masculine by Dolce & Gabbana


Instant - citrussy and fresh (nice)
5 mins - lemon, almost floor cleaner (not so nice)
10 mins - basil and spice come through giving good depth (v nice)
1hr - still nice
4 hrs - gone!

Burberry London for Men by Burberry


reminds me of Body Shop Activist for Men (not sure if this is still around?). Strong on the cinnamon and mossy/woody smells very long lasting - even after one day and a shower!!
Nice but possibly a touch overpowering.
