there are many interpretations of makes a fragrance sexy.
Put you nose into a container of this and you're 80% of the way there. Cinnamon and musk complete the experience.Quote:

I don't know about that, but their powdered milk smells so good, my girlfriend says it smells exactly like one of my favorite candles, which itself does not smell far from musk ravageur. Nestle does make good stuff, they're one of those non-perfume business who should make perfumesQuote:

Le Male is free, happy, maybe little bit cocky but funny guy, vibrant. I guess you might say these are sexy elements, but Body Kouros is that serios guy with black shirt (not T-shirt), long looks, intimate etc. I'd wear BK 100 times on a date with a girl than Le Male, but that doesn't mean I'd never Le Male on a date, I would if it was day and a date was casual :D
The other I must mention is Givenchy Pi - I'd wear this on a really serious romantic occasion + evening.
I explained that in my first post in this thread,Quote:

I understand Duke lol. Musc Ravageur is very sexy in my mind, i got complimented on it the first day i tried it on, tobacco vanille is nice too though my girlfriend adores it, but I feel that musc ravageur is just the pure essence of sex which I have been looking for.Quote:

Went with Musc Ravageur, even though I still need to try it :p But hey, it has a large majority of the votes, and the ones I have tried on here I don't really think of as "sexy".
Email Barneys and get a sample you will be amazed trust me. That stuff is the sexiest I have smelled, Tobacco Vanille is right next to it but I think mr has the edge.Quote:

And from what I know, from the poll, I'll go with Opium
I asked for it in the biggest parfumerie in Copenhagen today,Quote:

@ jonny : Seriously, I find Le Male synthetic and cheap but certainly not sexy. Part of this must be due to the fact, that it's HUGELY overworn in Berlin, especially by those wannabe machos that walk around looking for fights, as long as they are in groups consisting at least of three times the amount of people they want to fight with. Obviously LM suits the zeitgeist and the idea behind it is certianly interesting but while that idea is not my cup of tea already, LM IMHO is a very poor execution of it. I suspect some other BNs think similarly.
back on topic : MR gets my voteas well albeit I have my reservations. Sensual, intimite, cosy? yep, MR.
Bold, nasty and almost like the act itself? MKK!
Masculine, confident and testosterone loaded (this combination is considered uber exy by my GF and many other women I know) ? Something along the lines of Antaeus, Azzaro or even Kouros.
Yes I am a Creed whore for sure, I like some other niche fragrances I still think Creed has the best selection and quality but I love some of the other colognes out there. I have tried all of the big names , they all have one or two nice gems but I still feel Creed is the big dog, but I do want musc rav and tobacco vanille for sure those are nice. I prefer niche fragrances it seems, to me they put more time and effort into making them and are more unique.Quote:

I remember times when EVERY other post of yours was about creed so it's nice to see you havent quit there right away ;)
Thanks, I love Creed for some reason it works on my skin. At the same time I have heard good things about other niche houses and thought I might as well try them since Creed was not making anything new at the time and there are some nice ones out there but on me Creed still takes the cake but Creed is lacking in the oriental/gourmand realm. They have nice daytime, formal, informal and classy fragrances but they are lacking the sexy,sensual, romantic type of frags like Musc Rav, tobacco vanille,etc.Quote:

Well, it does and unfortunately if you like the nightlife one cant really avoid them altogether ;)
Dont big cities always attract the plebs?
But then again, i wouldnt want to be anywhere else.
Mr. Bond, David Bond ... how many frags will continue to the next round of voting?!
hmmm good question my good man i did not think of that before. If people are interested in a second round,etc like the last time I would love to hear what you all think. If so I will have 8 in the second round, 4 in the third and 2 in the final.Quote:

Just not that exciting with the Musk on the list .. buh huuuh!
imo, the real sexy frag is bakir which, mistargeted at women, oozes all (nice) things carnal :wink: i voted for kouros, however, for the 'masculine' frags are listed.
Ok round 2 will be 8, we will continue the tournament after this round, it will be 4 rounds total. We will have a crowned champion hopefully this time since no one won in the last tournament. I will shorten the amount of time for the other rounds the next 2 will be 3 days and the final battle will be 1 day.Quote:
