Have LIDGE love it now what?

Thread Starter 
Ok so per advice on here I bought a bottle of LIDGE and absolutely love it, but now am trying to decide between a couple of other colognes.

Guerlain Habit Rouge
Midnight In Paris
New Haarlem
Allure Homme
Dior Homme Intense
Egoiste Chanel

These are the one's I'm trying to decide between now and would just like to ask what people think is the best one of these and what these smell like as well?

Egoiste.

Woodsy and spicy. I find it sexy, complex and very elegant.

New Haarlem smells nothing like LIDGE but I think it's fantastic. Think of a coffee, breakfasty scent with a woody undertone. I think that's why a lot of people label this as a maple syrup type scent because the sweetness of the scent combined with cedarwood makes for a maple allusion.

The scents you listed are all very different and great in their own right, but I prefer MiP

Don't be without Egoiste by Chanel. Sample it if possible.

All of those are good to great fragrances. If you want something in the vein of LIDGE then you'd probably like Allure Homme, DHI, or New Haarlem. If your looking for something more unisex with a bit of powder Habit Rogue and Midnight in Paris which are both exceptional. If your looking for something more masculine and a signature scent then Egoiste.

DHI are all pure class IMO.

I don't like Egoïste at all.

If you like Lidge i think you will like New Haarlem, even though the later is a gourmand.

None of them hold a candle to LIDGE in any respect. I used to really dig Channel Allure until they reformulated it around 2010 and now its very weak in comparison. Prefer Platinum Egoiste over the regular but it is worth taking a peek at Channel Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme, its not what you expect it to be.
