Work, Casual & Evening Fragrance Choices (am a newbie)

Hi basenote friends

Please can u help me with some choices for work, casual and evening fragrances.
I don't like fragrances that are too strong as some can give me a headache, having said that it maybe that I am applying heavy fragrances in too large a quantity e.g. Aqua Di Georgio. I didn't like that one too much. But I want something that will not fade into nothing, esp evening fragrances


At the moment I have bought Vera Wang for men for work wear was considering Bulgari Homme Soir for an evening fragrance. I used to wear Baldessarini by Hugo Boss and loved that. But wanted a change after wearing it for so long. I was thinking of Tom Ford for Men as another work wear.

Please can you give me some ideas, that would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Thanks. I'll have to look up "niche" fragrances.
Hopefully i'll get more feedback.

Oh Rochas Man keeps cropping up as an all time fave of ppls, where does that sit for Work/Casual/Evening wear?

Thanks again

I would say that it works for a casual atmosphere. It could work for evening but I would see it more as an everyday casual scent. And it is a great scent.

I also suggest Gucci Envy, Gucci pour Homme, and Dior Homme

For casual and work try Guerlain Vetiver; it is light, crisp, and aromatic. For evening, try Azzaro PH.
