Hi Guys,

Just curious, since DN is my all time favourite scent, what in your minds is the ultimate combination of dress style and DN? What kind of style you envision when you think of DN.

Casual - I always think of jeans, a cotton shirt and sneakers. Probably because that's all I ever wore when I first discovered Drakkar Noir. I wore DN for years.

Thats easy. Skinny tie, white shirt, skinny lapeled sport jacket with the sleeves pushed up, stone washed jeans with the pant legs cuffed up and hightop adidas sneakers!! (....oh yeah, and 10 sprays of DN).

Dark blue skinny jeans ripped up and with a big design over the back pockets. Big belt buckle. White button up shirt half unbuttoned to expose manly chest hairs. Long golden necklace. Rockstar looking black leather jacket. Black shoes that are either slightly dressy or possibly Converse/Vans.

Hmm interesting... for me it's either perfectly matched to a formal style (dark suit,dark or light shirt and always a tie) or more a Sonny Crockett type of laid back smart casual. Either one is a DN guy to me.

Stopped wearing it? Or still do?

I would associate Drakkar Noir with formal or semi-formal office wear, consisting largely of dark, most likely black business suits - very powerhouse and mature not just as a scent, but also regarding the outfits it might suggest/impose.

I wear it once in a great while, for nostalgia. It will always be a classic scent, to me, but I associate it with a stage in my life I have left behind.

Yes. Shape your hair into a pompadour.

Wear a polo shirt (with nothing underneath) and pop the button to show all your chest hair.

Wear a fake rolex and a giant fake gold chain.

Maybe some slick sunglasses.
