M7
Gucci pour Homme
Bvlgari Black
Envy
Lolita Lempicka
Animale Animale
Dior Homme

Try those out. They are all very inexpensive and easy to find in the stores. You'll want to buy online to get the better prices.

I think the new Burberry London is quite nice as an everyday scent. Spicy, boozy, woody and very very yummy. I know a lot of people say it doesn't last but on me it does. I find it lasts all day - the base notes just sit very close to the skin. I find that if I ever heat up (throwing on a thick sweater), gentle wafts of it reach my nose, even when I think it's gone.

Santal Floris works. It's basically Gucci Envy w some lavender thrown in. It's also a lot smooother.

So does Chanel Pour Monsieur. Actually, this one is quite good because it sits very close to the skin so you won't get sick of it. I know I haven't.

Yeah it's weird, up here in Canada, YSL fragrances seem for some reason to be extremely rare. It's rare to see more than maybe 1 YSL fragrance at any of the department stores, a few of the grocery stores carry a couple. But it's mostly all YSL PH and Opium that I see anywhere.

I have never seen M7 in any store.

I used to see M7, Rive Gauche PH........at The Bay a year ago, i guess they stopped carrying them. I also saw M7 at a few Loblaws in the summer, they were 50ml for $19. Enchante's prices are just ridiculous most of the time. If those dont work out, i think your best bet is the Perfume Outlet in Dixie Mall in Mississauga, i'm sure they have lots of YSLs because they carry lots of rare stuff, but unlike Enchante they actually give you a better bargain, most likely $20 off the retail price. But make sure you bargain with the owners, they are very flexible.

oh lol I'm just observing the fact. Quite rarely on this boards it seems, I honestly don't find any of YSL's fragrances that amazing, not enough to buy at least.

I just find it weird how they seem to be so popular on here, I'm not sure how popular they are in terms of general public sales, but they are rare in the stores.

I've never been to that place actually, I should check it out. I usually just go to Fortino's they seem to be really good for having specials, and for just general purchases, there is this small store in the Shopper's World Mall in Brampton which has a pretty great selection and the prices are about as good as it get's up here. Good enough selection for me anyhow.

For those who do like it in Canada, I saw a 100ml of YSL Opium EDT for men for only 24.99 at Walmart.

How funny you mentioned Shoppers World, my home is actually 5 minute drive from there, well actually my parents' house, i lived on my own for a while but went back to my parents house last year. Even though i'm not in Canada right now, i'd love to check out the store you mentioned in Shoppers World, honestly i have never been inside that mall even though i lived near there, i always just go to Square One since i used to live in Mississauga, there's a perfume shop in Square One upstairs that carries YSLs at almost retail prices lol, she even carries a few Creeds, i used to have long chats with the owner. I guess you live in Brampton then, what a coincidence if you are lol.

Hmm - no one mentioned Bel Ami from Hermes - I love this one on a cool fall evening wear a big heavy sweater.

Hi to everyone from Canada - I live in T.O., work in Brampton and visit Mississauga daily. Small world. I haven't checked out Shoppers World yet - going to do that today or tomorrow - thanks for the tip
