Dior Addict by Christian Dior

HA! I totally pull this off, and love it! And I'm a man. I love how intoxicating it is. It goes straight up to your brain, you can almost feel it in your throat and the taste of it is like good champagne- sweet and sour.

Black Orchid by Tom Ford

Tom Ford get what he asked for: it does smell "like a man's crotch" (and I quote the designer himself) Bravo, Tom! (NOT)

Terre d'Hermès by Hermès

No, actually what I loved most is the idea of it. It does smell like dirt! In this case this is good. And well no it isn't dirt but wood but it pretty much channels the wet soil in a pine forest. It's so conceptual, I mean. Dust to dust, you know? Thankfully, the oranges fade quickle on me. Not on girls, though. A girlfriend of mine proved me wrong, since I used to say girls can't get away with male fragrances. She smelled of oranges and no Terre at all!

Prada Amber pour Homme by Prada

I agree: This is a sweet scent. I particularly look for that in a fragrance, so this even beats Prada for women. I like it, though after having heard a similar remark about it smelling like soap...I might pass or leave in the bottom of my list (in which flowerbomb remains number one)

Chic for Men by Carolina Herrera

What I love about this fragrance is that it smells much sweeter than your average lotion for men, like the classic Carolina Herrera (which, by the way, smells delicious if you let it rest for 20 years- I found one bottle of it with my dad's stuff and finished it off in months. It smelled basically of tea, and much more sweeter). And, unlike other masculine versions of female scents, this one totally beats its counterpart. I'm wearing both right now, though.

Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf

I want it! One thing I noticed is that on me, the scent does change. Strange as it may sound, it becomes masculine. I've always liked pushing the gender barrier, like Viktor & Rolf say, look for the contrast: this is my No. 1 rule. No drag obviously, just that I'm a man, I know what I want and I do what I want. I want pearls.
