The longest message ever written- aka your "dream team" list

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
What is your absolute "dream team" in terms of frags, I mean, if money, the sheer quantity of frags and even the fact, whether they are discontinued or not would not matter, which "ideal wardrobe" would you put together? I am going to start writing about my favorite and almost "too ideal to be true"- fragrance wardrobe now, irrespective if I actually own this frags already, nor if they are on my to test/already tested-list or not, irrespective if they belong to mass-market, designer or niche.
And will try not to leave out any title and any fragrance house:

My (seemingly) realistic scenario, maybe reachable in a few years, since I already own a tiny fraction of these frags:

Armani PH (my fave one)
Ungaro III
Trussardi Uomo
Grey Flannel
Halston Z14
Knize Ten
Le Vainqeur by Rance 1795
Esencia Loewe and Loewe Para Hombre
La Martina Hombre
Chanel Antaeus
Eau Sauvage by Dior
Hugh Parsons Yellow
Blenheim Bouquet, Opus 1870 and Endymion by Penhaligons
BDP by Creed
Very Valentino
ADP Colonia and Colonia Assoluta
Rocabar by Hermes
Mouchoir de Monsieur by Guerlain

And now, the more elusive part, the more hypothetical one, since I own even less of these frags:


add ALL the aforementioned frags, to the next ones
Floris No. 89, Limes and No. 127
Creed REL, Royal Scottish Lavender, Cypres-Musc, Cuir de Russie, Bois de Cedrat, Windsor, Orginial Vetiver, Vintage Tabarome and Millesime Imperial
Lanvin Vetiver
Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan and Chypre Rouge
ADP Blu Mediterraneo Cipresso di Toscana
Alt Innsbruck
EdC, Rusisch Leder and Kolnisch Juchten by Farina Gegenuber
Jicky, Eau Imperiale and Eau de Guerlain by Guerlain
Knize Forest and Knize Ten Golden Edition
Caron pour un Homme
Rive Gauche and Opium PH (including flankers) by YSL
Encre Noire by Lalique
Versace L'Homme
Jaguar for Men
Braukmann Classic by Hildegard Braukmann
Agua de Loewe, maybe also Solo Loewe and Solo Loewe Intense
Pure Cedrat, Pure Vetiver, PH, Visit and Bright Visit by Azzaro
Anything not previously mentioned by La Martina, Penhaligons (except Hammam Bouquet) and by Hugh Parsons
Anything by Roger & Gallet, Taylor's of Old Bond Street, Geo F Trumper, Acqua di Genova,
I Profumi di Firenze, Pantelleria, Profumi del Forte and Carthusia

Monsieur de Givenchy
Boucheron PH and Jaipur Homme
Bowling Green
Agua de Coimbra
Aramis (the 1965 version)
John Players Classic Green
Givenchy Vetiver
Baldessarini Ambre
C & S No. 88
Crabtree & Evelyn Sandalwood and Crabtree & Evelyn West Indian Limes
Von Sierstorpff
Acca Kappa Cedro and Muschio Bianco
YSL PH and YSL PH Concentree
Le Roy Soleil by Dali
English Blazer
Bergamotto Marino by Gianfranco Ferre
Paco Rabanne PH
Ungaro II
Faconnable PH and Face a Face by Faconnable
Zino Davidoff
Helmut Lang Cuiron
almost anything by Etro


I did it, I shared my utmost secret fragrance dreams- capable to bring down almost ANY bank account! So which frags would you choose, if you had the possibility to choose ANY frag and money, as well as the often long time, the exclusive places and the fact, that some of them might be vaulted, limited edition or discontinued were NO issue? Like in my case, multiple choices are permitted, I mean one regarding a more realistic, a truly optimistic and a downright lavish scenario.
So, feel free to explore your utmost daring fragrance fantasies and to share them with all of us.

Ha yes a month ago I might have decided to add BK, but lately i find it much too sweet and nondeveloping, I much prefer A*Men as a gourmand.
