Yep, tried to wash it off - failed. I was scrubbing this overly, sickeningly sweet poison 3 times in a row and it still lingered and projected.

Joop Nightflight. It's not a bad scent, but it smelled like hair gel to me, and really didn't fit my mood at all on the day I tested it.

MFK - Absolue pour le matin. This just smells of some kind of hospital strength bleach with a bit of baby powder and lemon thrown in. It actually gave me a migraine.

A*Men was the only fragrance I had to wash off. Nausea, dizziness and headache followed.

The opening of Caron pour un homme can be a doozy. I can take it though but sometimes I have to keep myself from aborting the mission.

Oh, man. I feel for you on that one. I know the Dreamer is supposed to dry down into something wonderful, but I can't get past the top at all. I almost blind bought this one. I'm so glad I didn't.

The last blind sniff version gave me a stinking headache... Montana Parfum de Peau. That took some scrubbing.

My worst ever scrubber was Versace Blonde, a vase of rotting tuberose on me. Must be so fabulous on those it suits. My skin loathes tuberose. It was so horrible that i've never forgotten nor tried again to check.

Pure Malt. I know it's loved by many, but it was just way way too sweet to my nose. Actually began to make me feel a bit sick. Once it started to drydown it began to go sour and I was getting what smelled like vomit or bile or something...scrub, scrub, scrub...
