It actually starts off with a boozy, almost rum-like scent as you put it on. But that dries down to the most austere leather-and-smoky-vetiver I have ever smelled. I would swear there's a note of...
Love this scent! Great for summer, better for day, but good for night as well. I’ve worn it for 10 years and never had it go bad. I would say it is more masculine, clean and almost classic. I...
Pour Homme is very pleasant scent that once you apply, you have the clean and fresh showered feeling. I am a big fan of Salvatore Ferragamo fragrances and have many to chose from. Free Time has...
I absolutely LOVE this fragrance! It's not heavy, and is more of a natural soap smell than an actual eau de parfum smell. If they bottled a bar of Ivory soap this would be it. I live in an...
From your description, the first thing I thought of was Tiffany for Men. It can be bought directly from Tiffany. It is a fresh but powdery masculine scent that is very similar to Pour Monsieur from Chanel, but better. Another in this category that has a slight more herbal base is Monsieur Givenchy - a very fine, lemony, men's cologne chypre with a slight powdery touch. Pure elegance.

My first thought as well. Tiffany for Men is incredible.
Midnight in Paris(but has a burnt rubber smell), CKN2U is like cinnamon rolls and baby powder, and D&G the one gentleman is like a talc with bubble gum.
Check out Bvlgari BLV and BLV Notte too. BLV was one of my most complimented ever, Notte is basically the same but a little less powdery with a light chocolatey note.
Seriously lots of good suggestions above including DH and MIP. Lanvin Arpege PH is heavy on the powder and can be had for cheap at Perfumania type stores and online.
I just realized that, for a fresh and powdery scent, Bulgari Blu is my favorite. Tiffany for Men is powdery and good, but I wouldn't consider it "fresh."
Big +1 for Burberry Touch, which has tremendous sillage.
I also recommend Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin, Guerlain Homme Intense, and Armani Diamonds for Men.
All are very good also.

If you can find arpege pour homme cheap online please tell me where. It seems its all but dissapeared from all online retailers.
I saw it at some mall in San Jose, California about 1 year ago (one of those Perfumania type places). Since you're in UK, I'm guessing the Beatyencounter transaction would be easier. I have ordered from them before and had good transactions.
