Hey everyone,

Firstly, wishing you all a Merry Christmas!

Since it's that time of year, thought it would be good to conduct a poll for best company/office xmas parties (mine is in Jan '13).

I've added 8 from my personal wardrobe, please vote or add further suggestions if you wish...

I will second this.

Great sweet, spicy and musky fragrance. It garners compliments and develops beautifully, so even if the party is a bore, your fragrance is not

Voted Pure Malt..Although I unfortunately do not like it (however hard I tried ) I think is still verging on a genius fragrance and is probably perfect for the occasion as it is very unique

Have fun!

Dior Homme Intense - quite festive one but yet formal and decent at the same time.

Out of the choices, I would also go with either DHI or Pure Malt. They are beautiful, elegant frags. For my Xmas party, though, which was quite a formal affair, I went with Guerlain MdM.

Never attend parties at my job. But if I did, I would go with DHI.

Since it a company event after all, I suggest to go safe with Dior Homme Intense (Christian Dior), Amber Pour Homme Intense (Prada), Individuel (Mont Blanc) or Pure Malt (Thierry Mugler)

I personally would go with Amber Pour Homme Intense

Well, so far it's a 3 horse race, although DHI is way out in front with MR and PM almost tied for 2nd.
I must admit, I did wear DHI to last years xmas do, but since I've now acquired PM and MR, can't make up my mind.

Txs for all the input guys...

I voted for Amber Pour Homme because it is a company party. DHI would be my very close second choice. None of the others fits perfectly. I do enjoy Musc Ravageur now and again, but no matter how much or little I apply, find it to be a polarizing scent that is inappropriate for work.

Pure Malt doesn't work for me because I like it less and less due to the synthetic undertones. On the other hand, if you had listed Pure Havane, that would be right below DHI.

Individuel seems like a safe bet for an office party. That gets my vote.

I've never used a poll to determine what fragrance I should wear. I just wear the one I feel like wearing.

But since you really feel the need to know what I think, it's Pure Malt.

Where else can one gage valued opinions from fellow fragrance fanatics if not basenotes? That's why we're all here isn't it?

Thanks for your vote pluran.

598 views yet only 39 have bothered to vote! Thanks to those 39 who have found the task of clicking once on their mouse not too arduous!

Looks like DHI is going to be the clear winner, no surprises there, although I am surprised that MR and PM, two hyped frags haven't had more love.

Well, as I suspected, DHI is way out in front.

I've actually chosen to wear 2nd place PM which I've recently acquired. To me it would be perfect in an office party setting, since it's sophisticated and has a festive feel to it, with that infamous malt liquor note.

DHI is just too much of an intimate, sexy scent to me.

Thanks to all those who voted!
