Well, is there anyone that wears this on hot weathers? I feel it fresh and comfortable. Just 1-2 sprays. I really don´t like those citrus of nowadays so this one fits good and unique. I really want to find more of that kind of freshness on other fragrances, maybe the cheapie brothers halston´s 1-12 and z-14 are in that vein so i think i will check it out. Do you have any sugestion (doesn´t have to be a cheapie)?

Narcisco Rodriguez for men is somewhat similar, and better IMO.

I love Grey Flannel..but if you want to sniff the best of violet leaves then go for Narcisco Rodriguez for Him. Its expensive than Flannel but way too good and crisp....

I wear Grey Flannel in the summer too, no problem. I find it crisp and dry, which is perfect for summer.

I think Narciso Rodriguez is a great scent too, but I find it too dense to wear in summer. On my skin it smells like a big, fat blob of scent in the summer.

I'd definitely try out the Halston 1-12 - it's green and nice and dry. Great for hot weather.

I too feel that Narciso Rodriguez is too dense for summers..but you can enjoy it in winters...

I'm more a fan of Eau de Grey Flannel in summer.
Grey Flannel itself I've never figured out when to wear.

Hell yeah I wear Grey Flannel in the summer. I like to spray it on before I mow the yard. The only other thing I know of that is even close to Grey Flannel is Dior's Fahrenheit, but it's not quite as fresh. I like both Halston 1-12 and Z-14 in the summer, but I don't think I would call them fresh.

Grey Flannel grew on me, but not enough where I need to keep it. Not sure I would wear it in the summer heat.

I think a lot of people just assume because a fragrance is powerful, and not an aquatic you can't wear it in the summer. I have found out that most power houses work best in the summer.

Kouros(well known to best for summer)
Drakkar Noir
Lomani
Boss #1
Quorum
1-12
Z-14
Lapidus PH
Salvador Dali PH
Grey Flannel
All of these frags work very well in the summer. The only frags I have that don't do that well in the summer are sweet, or oriental style fragrances.
