Pick your top 5 from the person's wardrobe above you

post #1 of 572
Thread Starter 
Thought this might be cool. Look at the person's wardrobe that posted before you and pick what you'd consider the top 5. Then for sh!ts and giggles, pick one that's their worst.
Enjoy

I'm on it. Grottola, here are my top five from your wardrobe:
Caron The Third Man
Creed Green Irish Tweed
Escada Homme
Monsieur de Givenchy
Jacomo de Jacomo

My pick for worst is a little more difficult, but I would say the adidas fragrances. I've had some samples, but I find that they offend my stuffy old curmudgeon sensibilities.
post #4 of 572
Good choices 6of1! I don't really like the Adidas either
post #5 of 572
Fun game, i hope you don't mind me playing with my small wardrobe :blush:

From 6of1's wardrobe:
  • jicky
  • rive gauche
  • royal scottish lavender
  • yatagan
  • 5 is a toss up between "1916" and The 3rd Man by Caron


My wardrobe is here:

Ah, Josh, I see you are a man of obvious good taste and intelligence.

Since we skipped OP, here are my picks for silverpunk.
Burberry London
D&G Pour Homme
John Varvatos
Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin (even though it's on your swap list!)
Rochas Man

Worst, in my opinion, is 212 Men -- not that it's bad, but I just can't work up any enthusiasm for it at all. It doesn't have that kick that puts it over the line for me.


And, since I am apparently on a roll, here's for Josh:
Azzaro Pour Homme
Montale Black Aoud
Knize Forest
Rive Gauche PH
Yatagan

You have a solid wardrobe! Forced to pick a weak link, I would pick Mugler cologne, because it just doesn't hold up to the rest of your inventory.
post #7 of 572
Good catch and thoughtful reply and of course thank you for the compliment, however if you only mentioned it because i forgot to add the kicker at the end it was my mistake

I'll add that my gym teacher in high school wore Gentleman Givenchy, something i didn't know until 20 years later when i knew immediately after smelling the frag where it came from. he was a horrible dude. So, GG gets my "worst" vote. Kouros IMHO could make it on both lists. Im considering buying it again...

From 6of1 wardrobe:

Apparition Homme Intense
Bulgari Black

Great post.. Someone said something about needing a cam for their wardrobe? lol That isn't needed to make a wardrobe on here, check up in the forum on how to make it if you need help, it's quite simplistic.

From Mario's:

Fahrenheit
Michael for Men (Kors)
Polo
TdH
Burberry London

Lots of goodies in your collection though, tough choice on last spot which I gave to London.

~~~~~~~~~

Vintage Tabarôme
Bleu de Chanel
L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme Extreme

Siifter

No.5 Eau Première (God bless you for having that one!)
Bleu de Chanel
Allure Homme Édition Blanche
Égoïste
No. 5

Worst - Héritage (which shows you how good his wardrobe is, IMO)

I wouldn't doubt it for a second. Much as I enjoy Dark Temptation, I feel that it's tempting me into a variety of novel and uncharted chemical regions. And one simply has to try Axe Proximity Bergamot to wrap one's head around the idea that a citrus scent doesn't actually have to have any citrus in it, whatsoever. Proximity, as in damn close to natural, but clearly not.
post #48 of 572
my choices from la's list :

Gendarme 20

L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme Extreme

L'Ombre Fauve

Patou pour Homme

Rose 31
post #49 of 572
There's no point in using my wardrobe, it's so out of date it's untrue, I have over a hundred more than I have listed but can't find time nor inclination to spend the net time to get it up to speed!
post #50 of 572
^ Hmm I'll skip you then, HDS? I'll do SoGent's (what a treat and dilemma inducing, i must add, solid wardrobe, this will be fun)

Muscs Koublai Khan
Italian Cypress
Rose 31
Tuscan Leather

Torn between LDDM and XXV.... Think I'll go with LDDM...

VERY honorable mention: SDV. It will easily fill in any missing slots..


Damn, I haven't tried the Le Labo Vanille, wish I was able to rate it.
post #51 of 572
Mmm, lots of goodies in MJF's wardrobe! My pics:

Silver Mountain Water
M7
Clinique Happy
Ambre Sultan
Habit Rouge
post #52 of 572
Fun!

From CologneJunkie, my top 5 would be:

Bulgari Black (hypnotic weirdness that I love)
Happy for Men (I'm not a huge fan of the drydown, but the sparkly other-worldly topnotes are some of the best in perfumery)
M7 (as ballsy and "niche" as the mainstream has pulled off, with the exception of Bulgari Black!)
Musc Ravageur (too dirty for me, but dead sexy)
CK One (for the happy memories)

And I won't pick a worst, because that's mean.
