This scent sounds rather fearsome:
An animale in heat!
Methinks the beast is tamer,
As I find it rather sweet.
But since I'm fairly thrifty,
The beast did make me pounce
To find a...
This was my first fragrance after I finished college and started my first job. A man I worked with said "that's not for a young girl you need something for a young girl". To me, Diorissimo...
What? "You need 6 sprays for it to last, oohh...." "It smells American" "It reminds me of a laundry gel (????)" What the F&%* is wrong with (some) reviewers here? Are you this kind of snobbish...
I would imagine that those who love Le Mâle by Jean Paul Gaultier(LM) might love the combination of worlds here in Armani Code Ultimate (ACU). I find it strange as I have not yet learned to love...
this is easily the worst amouage i've tried & i've tried most. a cloying clove cluster that really sends a feeling of nausea through the system. i persevered through the interminable dyrdown (it...
Not sure which one you mean, but you can purchase any of the dozen or so fraqgrances that Pinaud makes online from ebarbershop.com at: thegentsshop.com Pinaud has taken over all of these old barbershop fragrances that used to go under the brand names of Jeris, Lustray and Pinaud. I got interested in these a while back and tried them all out - the best of the bunch in my opinion are:
These fragrances are really inexpensive and are sort of watered down in order to splash onlliberally. But, the are pretty good. I like the Special Reserve quite a bit.
Okay, take Clubman. It's a classic fougere, based on lavender and coumarin. There's a lot of fougeres out there, but only so many keep it to the sweet simplicity of Clubman.
So, how many good-quality classic fougeres are out there? Hmm...
There's Rive Gauche pour Homme, Caron pour un Homme (my personal favorite), Lanvin L'Homme (under-rated). Penhaligon's English Fern. Yardley Gentlemen.
I could go on, but those are a few. Buy the Caron, it's very good.
I love the classic Barbershop scent. It's really all I wear. Here are my two suggestions:
Rive Gauche PH...Sophisticated Barbershop scent
Royall Muske...Classic Barbershop scent, (only buy the "Made in Bermuda" version...If you can find it)
I wear both of these for any occasion, including work. At the end of each day, my wife loves to get close to me while we watch TV. She frequently comments on how nice it smells to be near me.
Co-workers have equally complimented both, as have complete strangers.
And best of all...all of the kids in the family immediately recognize their "Uncle Shaun" by the way I smell. Nothing beats a 6 year old that tells you how good you smell.
