which fragrance?

post #1 of 18
Thread Starter 
Hi friends! I'm new in here, and i have some questions about fragrances.

I've been using CK Crave for a long long time... As you know its production is stopped, and i couldn't find it in my country. Anyway, i really loved Crave in time, but now i must find a new fragrance. i've been searching about two or three weeks and i'm too undecided between woody or fruity notes?! how could i choose a good and Cravy (i mean like crave) EDT or parfume or do you help me to find a good one?

here are my tries so far:

Givenchy Pi Neo (not really like it)

Clinique Happy (i know many people think that it is similar with crave but absolutely not!)

Calvin Klein Euphoria (not sure but i like this, Euphoria is product of CK too that's probably the reason why i like it and i still have a hope for this.)

Diesel Only The Brave (my girlfriend really like this)

Bleu de Chanel (my gf like more than diesel)

Black XS by Paco Rabanne (owwwww... what an awful experience!)

One Million (please don't be anger me friends, but it really sucks! I could say it's like jagler if you would know what the jagler is... sorry again

Armani Black Code (I really really hate it, can't even take one breath)

Armani Mania (I used this long long time ago, only short time, and i hated it, too.)

Aqua Di Gio (my ex fragrance, before the Crave, i don't think to use again, now it' so banal)

These are came to my mind first, i hope it is enough for information about my likes.

Please help me or share your opinions.

Thanks in advance...

How did you find Bleu de Chanel? If you plan to move away from Crave you could try Terre d'Hermes or Midnight in Paris. Both are nice and MiP is quite 'sexy'

I think you should give ADP Colonia a try. I have yet to meet someone who did not like this scent. It is a very pleasing citrus fragrance that is inoffensive.

Thank you for all replies, I noted all, and will try as soon as possible.

Just a little add: I also want to a brand that produces deostick too. I mean I wanna have both fragrance and deostick its.

teemas: I liked chanel but i'm not sure and also it is so expensive in here.

Sensual: I think you mention about Issey Miyake by L'Eau d'Issey, I know it very well, thank you for remind me, I used it many years ago. I don't wanna use again. Not like at all.

MJM_77: I didn't understand exactly what the ADP Colonia is. Because i didn't find any information or selling on the net about it. May be i misunderstand sorry. But thanks for reply.

I' m still open any information or opinion, thank you again.

Good suggestion, although I didn't find it to last that well on me

I tried all. But still I haven't found new fragrance. Please help me. Here are my criteria

1- Fresh scent which may includes: bergamot, sandalwood, musk.

2- I must be buy its "deodorant-stick" too. (Some fragrance brands don't produce deostick.)
