This is one of my favorite colognes, but I can never seem to find the right moment to wear it. It works pretty well in most occassions, but I can't place my finger on when/where it would smell best. I wore it once to a wedding and thought it was too casual, so I wore it another time with street clothes and reasoned that it came off as being too formal. The scent generally comes off as dirty vetiver with cool, biting grapefruit sillage on my skin, but it's been harder to for me to categorize than it seems it should. I don't know if anyone shares my view, and if anyone has this in his (or her) wardrobe, when do you decide to wear it out?

Givenchy PH was my signature fragrance for a while. I think it's a versatile fragrance, good for any occasion.
I still enjoy wearing it from time to time. It actually gets me more compliments than most of my niche frags. A female co-worker liked it so much that she went and got it for her husband.
