Terre d'Hermès by Hermès

Terre D'Hermes is a real Beast. It's totally different which is good; and because it is an exclusive scent I reign supreme here in MississippiI(LOL). I did not like this at 1st whiff ,but went back to it 5/6 months later and I'm kickin myself for blowing this off for so long. The patchoulie & fruit mix is really workin well in combination. Try it. I know you'll like it!

Fahrenheit by Christian Dior

This is a good fragrance, but you have to be careful not to overspray. once i figured out that it only took 2 sprays max, my environment became a better place:-). This a good everyday scent

Acqua di Giò pour Homme by Giorgio Armani

I use to love it(age22),but now that I am older(age34) I lean toward more niche fragrance houses now. If you want a Mans Aquatic go out and smell Erolfa by Creed. because this was once a favorite of mine,I will give it a thumbs up!

L'Eau D'Issey pour Homme by Issey Miyake

One of the best citrus scents of all time! I wore this about 10 years ago and my use it again this summer, but if you want a good scent that is a stand alone fragrance. this is it!

Polo by Ralph Lauren

Classic!!!
Try just using the body lotion. it will be more than enough!.

cK one by Calvin Klein

This worked for me at launch.I just happened to sniff in a department store and its evident that my taste has changed since I was 21, but over all still a decent run of the mill Mass Market scent. I'll give it a thumbs up

Herrera for Men by Carolina Herrera

I can not understand what I liked about this juice when I bought it in 1993. YUK,YUK,YUK.........

Baldessarini Del Mar by Baldessarini

Most say they like this ,but to me it is just not me. Because I've gotten compliments I'll give it a neutral.Personally i don't like it

Nicole Miller for Men by Nicole Miller

I still have a 3/4 of a bottle left of this awesome juice. If you can somehow find a bottle of this I advise you to get some. Because of it's scarceness I only wear it in the summer.

Marc Jacobs for Men by Marc Jacobs

I bought this juice when it 1st hit the market and in 2008 I still can't find a place for it. I walked into a Sheraton Hotel Lobby in Atlanta and what did I smell??? Marc Jacobs! The airfreshner the hotel uses is identical to Marc Jacobs(No one could verify that it was MJ). I'm gonna rate this one neutral because it smells better as a room deodorizer rather than a body fragrance.........

Unforgivable by Sean John

Ok...Tried this one before I smelled Creeds MI and liked it a whole lot! On my skin there was NO dry down. I smelled like a basket of fruit all day long. I felt like a fat woman who wears Victoreia Secret lotions. I'll still give this one a thumbs up, but go ahead and spend the extra coin to experience MI.You will not regret the work of art especially in warm weather....

Reflection Man by Amouage

Is it me or does this one smell like Jean-Paul Gautier?? not original to me got to rate it "neutral"

Cirrus by Amouage

NOT impressed by this one at all! smells like 100 other mass-market aquatic fragrances. May be great for some,but not for me.... Because of the price tag, I have to give this one a thumbs down.

Erolfa by Creed

The most natural aquatic that I've smelled to date. For all of you Creed fans out there, mix Erolfa and SMW or MI and take a sniff..... WOW! I seldom where this one alone. I 've found that it is best when combined with other Creed scents... I'll try Erolfa and Himalaya next. With all Creed scents apply to undergarments if there is a problem with longevity.

Millésime Impérial by Creed

Hey I really like this juice! I wore it throughout the summer and give it a big thumbs up for warm weather. The watermelon is what makes it different. The warmer the climate the more the watermelon note shines. For people that have a problem with longevity just apply it to your undergarments.

A*Men / Angel Men by Thierry Mugler

Flat out classy!
Longevity is unreal with this juice, but only wear it when the temperature is a maximum of 50 degrees. Warm weather makes Amen become way over powering.

Black by Kenneth Cole

It's ok. Strictly casual wear. Very synthetic. I'm not too fond of Mass Market fragrances.........

Romeo Gigli by Romeo Gigli

When I initially purchased this one it was far too mature for a 21 year old(1994)
The year is now 2007(I'm 34) and I have reinvented myself with this classic fragrance! I had one of the best fragrances ever created resting peacefully in its dormant state that I placed it in and had forgotten all about it.
There is a hidden note within this complex juice that I can't put a finger on.I wonder if its nutmeg? whatever it is it cuts the sharpness and smoothes out the fragrance.
2 Thumbs up on this one!

Versace Man by Versace

Similar to D&G, but different enough during drydown to purchase anyway. i like this one and very surprised that I didn't buy it sooner.
19 November 2007

Versace Man Eau Fraîche by Versace

Awesome fragrance that is the direct counterpart for Dolce & Gabbana light Blue for women! nothing but compliments with this one. I can see why people would say it smells like Issey Miyake, but it is different enough to purchase if you own a bottle of Issey. I bought this one blind and based on the reviews on this website and the fact that I was soooo DISAPPOINTED with the new D&G Light Blue for men. Buy it; You'll love it!

The Dreamer by Versace

This one is on my list of all time favorites! The tobacco is what makes this one hot to me. Women love it and that's all that matters! i rank this one up there with Silver Mtn water, D&G PH, Polo, TM Colonge. Did not really like it the first time i tried it but I kept going back to my wrist and before I knew it, I was in love.... Give it a try and you'll love it!

Obsession for Men by Calvin Klein

Today decided to pay an old friend(obsession)a visit. The response was just as powerful as it was 18 years ago when I was in 10th grade. Today I am 33 and I am going to place this Classic back into heavy rotation. Obsession is good in summer and phenomenal in Winter.
Obsession is the only fragrance that is truly unique. I am not a Mass Market guy at all, but you have to have Obsession and Polo(gren bottle) in your stack!

Michael for Men by Michael Kors

This is a winter time scent only! Do not wear this when the temperature exceeds 50 degrees . Very heavy fragrance. Great when its cold; Stinks when its hot!
08 January 2007

Silver Mountain Water by Creed

Can I start out by saying, "excuse me. What are you wearing?" That's exactly what I get when I spray on this one! The tea's are absolutely perfect. I agree on the similarities to CK1, but much richer and deeper. The only down side is that it takes about 6 sprays for longevity.
Does the Creed line last longer with continued use?(can anyone answer that for me?)
