If you should travel on a luxury cruise in Caribean and could pick one casual day fragrance, and one for formal/evening, which of these would you choose?

Pick 2. One for day, one for evening:

Hermes Bel Ami
Michael Kors for Men
Amouage Jubilation xxv
Amouage Epic
Creed Green Irish Tweed
Creed Silver Mountain Water
Malle Musc Ravageur
Amouage Ciel
Creed Original Vetiver
Creed Himalaya
Givenchy Gentleman

Exactly my recommendation.

For bonus points, take along a bottle of Acqua di Parma Colonia. It's perfect for upscale-feel cruise/beach/resort wear.

Wouldn't it be nice to be the only unscented guy on board? Anybody else will use high doses of some frags bought just occasionally for the trip, go figure. Would be fine if You come back still liking fragrance ...

Seems like XXV is a winner in the evening. I absolutly love that fragrance, but it is so rich, dense, thick, and loud, with ulta-strong sillage, that I don`t think I could wear it several days in row.. I would probably pick eighter Bel Ami or Michael. I think GIT and SMW is perfect for daytime (and also hot summer evenings). Just a info; I`m not going on a cruise. I just love to hear about others opinions! ;-)

I would go for Original Vetiver for the day as the hotter it gets the better this gets on the skin by giving off refreshing sillage. For evening I would go for Silver Mountain water which I think would be a enchanting scent for those warm balmy caribbean nights.

My experience was that if one sprays lightly with XXV, it tends to stay a tad too close to the body after 2 hours. I think XXV is meant to make its presence felt in the first few hours, before it tapers off to something softer.

Creed - Virgin Island Water for day, YSL - La Nuit de L'homme for evening and Creed - Windsor for formal.. The exact trio I used for my Cruise.

Hmm..I`m surprised nobody hasn`t mention the beautiful, sexy, warm, soft, unique, elegant, masculine compliment-getter Bel Ami as the evening scent.. Maby not so many people here know it?
