Well?
post #2 of 58
Still trying to decide between Brit and Dzing.

post #3 of 58
Tea for Two
post #4 of 58
Nuit de Noël, Chergui or Dzing! I'll decide that morning.
post #5 of 58
Probably JHL or Egoiste
post #6 of 58
V.I.P. Room Signature for sure. I've waited so long to get it and it came today. What a perfect timing!
post #7 of 58
It might be Angel or Arabie or Comme des Garçons or something else, will decide at the last minute.
post #8 of 58
Jaipur or Musc Ravageur...
post #9 of 58
I hope it will be New Haarlem, if it gets here before christmass! Otherwise it will be Acier Aluminium, yumsters!
post #10 of 58
maybe Vendetta by Valentino or Town & Country, I am yet to decide...

Either Mauboussin Homme or Must de Cartier

I'm thinking of wearing Brit. Afterall, my collection is pretty limited..

M7, let the precious agarwood notes burn people's nostrils around me, I don't care, I like this scent too much.
;D

Oh Brit is very nice! Perhaps I'll wear that too instead of Mauboussin or Must de Cartier! Aaah, too many good scents to choose between!

Probably Fuel, just simply because it's the easiest to transport (have to travel), and it's a good wintery scent, even if it will be about 80° or so.
post #17 of 58
John Varvatos - it just sums up my personality
post #18 of 58
Disappointment - EDP strength in the big family-sized bottle.

I wear it every year! :-X
post #19 of 58
Good choice!

I will probably go with Ungaro I
post #20 of 58
Ungaro III is under the tree, so probably that. ;D
post #21 of 58
Nothing until I open my gifts, as I have at least a bottle of CdG 2 Man coming my way (but I can't open it until Dec. 24)...

It must have a so dry, bitter drydown and such a harsh sillage... I hope you'll comfort yourself with a good smell at least for new year's eve...

Oh, it does, it does. But not to worry. I always layer it with a tiny spritz of Revenge, the perfect compliment to Disappointment EDP. Of course, I keep that precious bottle in the back of the fridge as it is always best served up... well, you know.

(When viewed as sport, the annual emotional minefield otherwise known as "christmas" is actually quite enjoyable.)

For this New Years Eve, I will-as I do every year-douse myself with Outlook d'Rose and run impetuously into the embrace of the promise of the hope of the new year.


Seriously though, I am on a Jean Patou Pour Homme kick at the moment and I suspect that won't change by this weekend.
post #25 of 58
Either Musc Ravageur or Coup de Fouet.
post #26 of 58
For some reason there are three scents which I`ve taken into use on Christmas time:

ROCHAS MAN, BIAGIOTTI`S VENEZIA UOMO, PWS SAMBA RED.
post #27 of 58
Christmas in our little Victorian cottage calls for something traditional - probably Geo. F. Trumper Eucris

Trot
post #28 of 58
I think the fight will be between Messe de Minuit and Musc Ravageur.
post #29 of 58
I'm split between New Haarlem and ... Arabie.
post #30 of 58
Parfum Sacre for Christmas Eve, still undecided for Christmas Day.
post #31 of 58
Probably anything I get on Xmas, I think my brother got me a new scent, or CDG White.
post #32 of 58
My Arabie didn't make it here so I'll be wearing Borneo 1834.
post #33 of 58
Avignon or A*men
post #34 of 58
I instantly fell in love with Gucci Pour Homme and can't wait to open it up on Xmas morning.
post #35 of 58
Amouage Dia. I break this one out only for the special occasions.

It goes well with the good food, atmosphere, and drunks I'll be around ...
post #36 of 58
I think it will be Yatagan... After all, its great and strong pine accord will go easy with the Christmas tree.
post #37 of 58
Normally I would just reply "Obsession, of course" but I wore it the other day and I am tired of it...............does not smell so fantastic anymore (maybe my bottle is too old these days?).

So I really do not know what to wear other than it will be warm and sweet.............OR it could be Salvador Dali pour Homme.

Mic.
post #38 of 58
I'm pretty sure it will be one (or all!) of the following:

Hermes Rocabar
Angel for Men
Le Essence le Must de Cartier

Jeff
post #39 of 58
Probably i Profumi di Firenzi Spezie on Christmas Eve and perhaps Amouage Gold Cologne on Christmas day.
post #40 of 58
Messe de Minuit, of course!
post #41 of 58
Hi all,

Ahhhh...this is a EXCELLENT question! One in fact that I have already thought about eailer this week. Now...if all goes well, the wife and I we will visit our families in Rhode Island. Let's see...Saturday, Sunday (CHRISTMAS) and Monday (return to Maine). Ummmm...at least three fragrances...well...this much I can tell you...on CHRISTMAS day, I will be wearing(from a decant...thanks Chuck) A. GOUTAL "SABLES" which I believe is a PERFECT fragrance for CHRISTMAS! As far as the other two days...Ahhhhhhh....get the Duct tape...my heads going to EX-plode! I dunno...if I hadn't used up all my decant of SMN PATCHOULI...I would for sure wear the PATCHOULI (note to self...got to get more SMN PATCHOULI). Ahhhh...I MUST go with CREED TABAROME MILLESIME and...and...Duct tape...Duct tape!

Regards,
SixCats!

Sixtcats! Long time no see...

I'm going to have to go with A*Men. It's not exactly an original choice, but it somehow seems appriopiate.
post #47 of 58
Still agonizing.

Okay, but I've got it narrowed down to one of these for sure:

Gucci pour Homme
Messe de Minuit
Tabac Blond
"old" Greenbriar
Passage d'Enfer
Jaïpur Homme

They all just seem so Christmas-y?!
...Or maybe I'll just change hourly. Â*
post #48 of 58
I'm leaning toward Arabie - I picked up a generous sample spray at Barney's last weekend.

If I don't go with that, I'll stay in the general neighborhood, Chergui, Borneo 1834, New Haarlem, or maybe Fuel or Michael for the dried fruit notes.
post #49 of 58
Christmas eve: Fumerie Turque
Christmas day: Musc Ravageur
post #50 of 58
Acier Aluminium ;D :
post #51 of 58
Obviously I've yet to decide but propably something like Nu or Rochas Man
post #52 of 58
CLIVE CHRISTIAN 1872 or ACIER ALUMINIUM
post #53 of 58
I hate being obvious, but what's the point of owning A*Men if I'm not going to wear it during the holidays. Would it be too much to wear M7 on christmas eve? :-[
post #54 of 58
Christmas Eve: Claude Montana Pour Homme
Christmas Day: Richard James.
post #55 of 58
Christmas Eve: Burberry Brit

Christmas Day: Burberry London
post #56 of 58
A*Men - burning pud, pickled rasberry trifle, terry's chocolate orange and satsumas - how Christmassy! I was talkig about the A*Men obviously.

;D

Arabie (2000)
