I looked at the top 5 sexiest fragrance thread and saw that these were the highest ranking. Let's see who wins it this time. The last time it was a tie between Le male and obsession. I will keep it open for a week , I believe that will be plenty of time.

post #5 of 96

le male has a clean/romantic sexiness in my mind, i can see musc rav win but you never know.

Musc Ravageur seems to be the sexy scent du jour. It's actually good stuff, too -- as opposed to so many popular favorites that are nauseating from the get go. I won't name Le Male names or anything like that, though.

I feel so left out, there's nothing in the poll that I own, or actually love. I wish you left a space for: Other.
My write Other is:
Muscs Koublaï Khän
post #9 of 96
I'd have to say none of the above and go with Narciso Rodriguez EDP.

Hmmmmm..... me, too. I do own Bvlgari Black, but don't find it sexy. Antaeus, maybe, but I haven't smelled it in years.

For me, either Muscs Koublaï Khän or L'Artisan's Al Oudh.

The other frags did not make it sadly and there were too many ties so instead of fighting against it i just eliminated them. On top of that there is a 20 limit, so I am sorry guys.
post #12 of 96
not too surprised at the result. tho i cant believe im the only one that has voted for Le Male so far. and no votes for La Nuit de L'homme??

I thought le male would get more, Musc Ravageur is kicking butt.
post #14 of 96
I once owned Body Kouros, and in retrospect, the final drydown was quite sexy.
post #15 of 96
Definetly la nuit de lhomme, I've gotten the best comment on it ever. "What was that ORGASMIC cologne u where wearing last night!"

lol
post #16 of 96
I dont' think its all that great, hence I'm selling mine (see below)
post #17 of 96
Opium pour Homme
post #18 of 96
I vote for Musc Ravageur, but I would also like to see Divine L`homme Sage on that list..
post #19 of 96
I voted Body Kouros cause it's deep, thick and erotic, but La Nuit really is sexy, Gucci Envy fo Men too - it is quite erotic. Zino is not mentioned - erotic stuff. Obsession for men - very sexy even though some say it didn't pass the test of time. Givenchy Pi, also not mentioned if I'm not mistaken - very sexy. Suma summarum, there are many sexy fragrances and it is hard to say wich one is ultimately more sexy than the other. Joop! Joop! Homme - that's some really sexy poison!

I've never tried Musc Ravageur, but I swear I will one day and certainly will not regret it

Me thinks - very British - depends of what kinda sex You have in mind. Lots of thoughts about sex around, each different.

A steady winner is real sandalwood (Mysore). It is peculiar but familiar too. The price is - irregardless it's rarity - pretty low if toned down to the regular 10% delution. I prefer to negotiate matters by words, though. Not at least it's more flexible as to fit the consignee.

Where are the Diors?! Fahrenheit? Jules? Dior Homme? Where?!

The last time I went with Obesssion, all the way to the final voting.
It's strange, that Obsession only have one vote thus far ... hmm?!

It was hard to choose between Kouros; Obsession; and Antaeus.
But, I voted for Antaeus. I've found out, that I attract women like
a turd attracts flies when in this frag. Too bad I'm gay as a daisy!

Maby it`s because Obsession hasn`t passed the test of time. Extreemely out-dated fragrance...

The last time, some three month ago,
it was a tied winner with Le Mâle, but,
this time around, it gets no votes!

None up there for me But when I find it, I'll let you all know

I think obsession is a classic , obviously for people who are more into mainstream frags they would not give it the time of day but it has stood the test of time and it is not dated...... yet.
post #30 of 96
Well, literally, the answer would be Muscs Koublaï Khän.

Figuratively, I'll have to go with Antaeus here.





PS, I think this is like, the 4th Musc Ravageur craze Basenotes has seen. Never did particularly the like the stuff. Should be called Syrupy Pastry Ravageur

Man, I wish I had this problem.....

I thought that was a pretty good list...you could make a solid case for near all of them in my opinion....I voted for Musc Ravageur. Honorable mention for Gucci Envy and Rochas Man (in terms of "helping you get sex")

If you meant "smells like a barn after two animals had sex" - Kouros, run-away winner.

Musc Ravageur is still #1 right now, Body Kouros is #2 which has surprised me.
post #37 of 96
honestly shocked that only one other person besides me on this forum thinks that Le Male is the sexiest fragrance
post #38 of 96
I have 13 out of the 16 listed & Musc Ravageur is nothing like I've ever smelled before. Before I tried MR...Le Male, Pure Malt & A*Men would've been top of my list but...damn Musc Ravageur smells goooood.

Le Male went from amazing to extremely over rated to me. I love the late drydown of vanilla but i've had horrible responses from the ladies with it "its okay..." is the main thing i get, and i have to ASK for an opinion. I like it but i've yet to have anyone find it sexy, and i dont find it sexy either

lol. our situations couldnt be more opposite. this fragrance has blown some womens minds when ive worn it.

Le Male is a scent that to me, theres a huge different between smelling it with ur nose to ur skin, and getting whiffs of it and smelling the trail. To me, Le Male leaves absolutely the most amazing scent trail ive ever smelled

thats kinda half my problem is the longevity and projection of it is abysmal on me. I've had it last 6 hours at the MOST. My body chemistry also seems to hate the florals of Le Male, so A*Men is what i'll be sticking with as my signature haha. Le Male was actually replaced by A*Men as my signature fragrance, you should get a sample of A*Men and test it every now and again. They're both really sweet, A*Men is just much darker and "foody" (the gourmand aspect of it actually took me a few months to pick up on), while Le Male is sweet, but also powdery and lighter. Its like a thick, rich chocolate versus a sugar cookie with a bouquet of florals smothering it

After all these comments I'm definitely interested in Musc Ravageur and Pure Malt...anybody know where I can pick up Musc Ravageur other than Barney's? I'm also having trouble finding Pure Malt online and I went to Macy's and Sephora today and they didn't have it...

What makes Antaeus sexy in your opinion? I have tried it and I like it but never associated it with sexy at first.
post #59 of 96
ive heard that antaeus smells like an old ladies perfume. is this true? is it one of those fragrance that are loved because its "unique" and "differnt"
