Ambre Sultan by Serge Lutens Les Salons du Palais Royal Shiseido
this oriental is nothing to play with. can easily be overpowering with just 1 spray. applied from a distance is the only way i can pull this off but i simply cant wear it. pungent. a very toned down version would be by man d&g

not much of a fan of pepper.this slightly reminds me of himilaya for some reason but doesnt come close.
18 March 2007

a touch of lemon on a cool white light musk in the warmer months. the drydown is the flaw in this one which gets kinda tacky

not for a man for sure,more for a woman and it has an old classic smell with notes clashing, not a good thing

22 January 2007
Kenneth Cole New York Men by Kenneth Cole
wanted to go hard on this on but I went neutral,basically because it does smell ok. downside is that its a typical fresh frag that gets lost in the crowd.nothin special but again,its ok
22 January 2007
Aquaman by Rochas
a peppery aquatic juice.there are many other aquatics I would wear instead.
22 January 2007
L'Eau D'Issey pour Homme by Issey Miyake
a let down. I was thinking something spectacular or close to it cause of all the hype. I give this a thumbs up anyway because it is a nice and clean scent with a powdery soap presence that's off putting. this one can mess with the nose and can bring a headache to some so spray light with this one.
22 January 2007
Bois du Portugal by Creed
thumbs up. starts off reminding me of a calmer jean pascal. spicey and for sure masculine.
22 January 2007
Crystal Flowers by Montale
thumbs up.a pleasant scent for an elegant evening.nothing sharp ,only smooth floral notes and a touch of aouds to keep it unisex and interesting.I've worn this a few times and it was an instant hit. but I think women wears this best. a must try especially for women
16 December 2006
Black Aoud by Montale
took a few tries for me to decide on this one, then one day I said somethin smells interesting , realizing it was me. starts off strong but calms down but remaining dark and mysterious. thumbs up for this montale product
16 December 2006
Aoud Roses Petals by Montale
after a heavy rain.a rose pulled from the roots.moist dirt and rose pedals with water beads starting to dry. bewitched was how one described this and that is absolutely correct. and very sexy. inhailing this saying ooooh, very admiring. thumbs up
16 December 2006
Aoud Lime by Montale
sharp, soapy, and a faint dried lime peel. not much else. thumbs down. montale has better aouds to offer.
16 December 2006
Ciel for Him by Amouage
disappointment. I tried to imagine spring mornin ,nothin close. I can't wear this stuff. its appealing to some but not here. terrible
16 December 2006
Amouage Gold Men by Amouage
baby powder and floral notes blended nice. not for me though. thumbs down, can't get excited about baby powder and there are so many other frags I would wear over and over till the bottle is empty before I w ar this. hate to say it like that, but its true.
16 December 2006
Santal Noble by Maître Parfumeur et Gantier
burning coffee grinds with some special dark chocolate. thick and heavy and later turning creamy, vanilla,and coconuty.a classy and sexy scent.top notes are harsh and heavy.then it turns into somethin nice. neutral to me because its not my style but the drydown is nice. respect there.
16 December 2006
Himalaya by Creed
snow and pepper,I get that.very nice scent, only bad thing I say is that it doesn't last long at all on my skin. thumbs up and I can see why himalaya receives high marks. 10 times better than smw imo.
16 December 2006
Silver Mountain Water by Creed
smw doesn't work for me. I guess I'm one fo the very few that don't like it at all. I don't get to enjoy the tea note , there is kinda ink smell in there.Noooo for me
16 December 2006
Santa Fe for Men by Aladdin Fragrances
I like this one.I would like to find a similar frag lasting longer and ties everything together better.a must try, very cheap price too
02 December 2006
Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme by Dolce & Gabbana
today, d&g is so popular. it truly is a very good juice. that tobacco note is sooo nice. when people can tell you what you're wearing then its time to put it up for a little while
02 December 2006
Obsession for Men by Calvin Klein
my very first powerhouse frag.a true throwback and a classic standing the test of time.great sillage and longevity .body heat activates sweetness in obsession, understand what I'm talkin bout.
02 December 2006
By Man by Dolce & Gabbana
by is somethin different from the average scents. with a slightly animalic presence.by has a warm feeling to it at times and slightly powdery. it gets noticed and gets compliments , which is important to me when it comes to scents.
01 December 2006
Allure Homme Sport by Chanel
thumbs way up with this 1.this fresh scent is accompanied by vetiver to sexy it up. one of my favs
01 December 2006
Acqua di Giò pour Homme by Giorgio Armani
something for the younger crowd. nice and watery. thumbs up and the only negative that I can find is that it was too popular. I remember smelling this in the mall on 4 different people. bought it for my nephew. he told me the girls talks about how good he smells.
25 August 2006
Tangerine Vert by Miller Harris
high quality juice. real tangerines and lemons is what I smell in this being trailed by a very light musk making it suitable for men also. 8 out of 10 for me.
25 August 2006
Geir by Geir Ness
geir doesn't work the magic on my skin. its a good scent but very over rated. I need a little sillage in my scents and geir has less than that. a fresh crisp breeze with some fresh cut grass with vanilla making its presence known. I love the scent but it doesn't get known much when I wear it.
12 August 2006
The Dreamer by Versace
dreamer is like a beauty and the beast. the top notes are so harsh that I can't stand it. with some patience,dreamer morphs into something beautiful.many say this is similar to d&g ph with the tobacco note but to me they're not. dreamer has a wet tobacco smell that's been sitting in a hot barn. then later its a almost like a sweet and natural body odor that I love. a scent that changes on your skin which takes about an hour to turn into somethin wonderful.
12 August 2006
Nobile by Gucci
nobile, lets see. the main thing about this is that nobile has a resemblance of a older man with class. this is a well put together scent. sometimes I'm think about a pine forest when I smell nobile.
12 August 2006
Envy for Men by Gucci
a sweet woody scent that is classy and sensual and most of all, Sexy!! envy impresses the women for sure. I'm not goin to talk about the many unforgettable compliments I've received with this 1.stunning.
