I'd love to see a McQueen release as well, but I'm not going to hold my breath just yet. As with Helmut Lang Vetiver or some of the others from the "might have been" thread a while back, there is a lot to happen before this one hits the shelves. I read that first and foremost to McQueen right now (and several other gucci group brands) is that he breaks even financially. The heads at Gucci Group gave all the brands a few years to make a profit or they've threatened to sell them off. This was, I believe, one reason we saw a McQueen jeans line this past year, along with the Puma collaboration. Many McQueen die-hards were angered by the more commercial slant of his last few collections, but much of this was because they HAD to become more commercial.
I also heard that Kingdom is to be discontinued; I'm sure that this would cause them all to take their time and consider the men's scent very carefully before sinking millions of $$$ into it, especially if McQ has yet to break even.
IN any case, a men's fragrance would be really interesting. I'd say it would have to be very different from Kingdom, because his menswear is VERY different from his womenswear. It's less combative, less confrontational, and decidely more elegant and 'dandyish.' But, it still has that element of gothic/sexy flare. So, to be honest, I think it would be something along the lines of a more rebellious CN Scent Intense. Something thick, dark, heady, intoxicating.
