Terre d'Hermes and AdP Colonia are great ones too. In fact, I like Terre d'Hermes a lot better than Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet (I normally don't like to poo poo their house. They are my favorite fragrance producer). I teach high school and one of my students smiled at me one day and told me "Mr. Texican, you smell like lemons and sugar!" I was wearing Colonia.

YSL - Live Jazz
Hermes d'orange verte
Ralph Lauren - Safari


For Live Jazz and d'Orange Verte, I have to be doing something. They are too energetic to use for just sitting on a couch. Safari almost seems to encourage me to sit around like a slug. So, its also a great work frag

I really don' know. I usually wear something different everyday. But I have my fun senseless scents I wear on menial task days:

Jovan Sex Appeal - I really really do believe what the box says IT'S TRUE DAMMIT! . . . one day
Michael Jordan Cologne - My J never misses on the courts with this baby (it bricks quite often though)
Claiborne Spark (which surprisingly gets me more compliments than anything aside from Datura Noir and Amen - a scent I can't stand now)
New West - makes me feel like a MAN

Cheers,
Al

SMW is lovely, almost too lovely in my opinion, to be worn casually. And like all Creeds, expensive. I've considered buying a bottle, but I think Penhaligon's, Guerlain, and Hermes are more towards my style.

Terre and Hanae Mori would be my favorites at the moment.

Encre Noire.
CK Truth for Men
DKNY Red Delicious (Winter)

And my bottle of Bulgari Aqua got here tonight. I can't attest to its having a particularly briny, oceanic smell like I expected. It smells like things we associate with the ocean, but not the ocean itself like I thought from reading the reviews.

Clearly, I've been smelling too many niche fragrances that when they say something like "OCEAN" they mean the full-on fishy, low-tide, organic smell of bilgewater. I'm surprised Monsieur Malle hasn't spotted the hole in the market.

I agree that it's almost too nice to wear only to non-special occasions. But then again, I could never see myself wear it to formal occasions.
