Hi guys,

So i'm going out for a meal tonight with friends to an Italian restaurant and I have no idea what to wear. I'm a 22 year old guy and will be around people the same age so what would you recommend me to wear from my wardrobe? I want something that people will appreciate and think "you smell great" but at the same time I don't want to gas people out over dinner.

Thanks for any help!

My vote for a very light spritz of Le Male or New Haarlem. As you point out, the key here is to go light, the last thing you want is to interfere with food's appreciation.

For the full Italian experience, I would have suggested Pino silvestre or Tuscany (or Cipresso by Blu Mediterraneo). But they're not in your wardrobe.

I like The Dreamer from your collection. It always seemed to be well received when I wore it around company.

You didn't mention the weather, but I assume it's pretty cool in Ireland - so I will second new Haarlem, especially if there will be females involved.

You will smell like dessert.

Yeah sorry, its 12C at the minute which to be honest, isn't particularly cold for these parts when you take into account we were having -20C winters. I like the idea of smelling like dessert though!

Pure Malt. Definitely an evening scent.
