As per the thread title am really liking the Quorum at the moment , loving that ballsy cigar tobacco, leather and pine vibe.
I know Quorum is very distinctive but is there anything similar to this great fragrance?

Krizia Uomo and Francesco Smalto Pour Homme are "similar".

Many of the "classic" men's fragrances have a similar vibe. Having said that, +1 for Yatagan.

Quorum is an old favorite of mine. I do not see any similarity between Quorum (chypre) and Smalto or Brut (both fougere). I do think that Quorum and Estee Lauder's Azuree are quire similar.

Open by Roger & Gallet reminds me of a slightly subdued version of Quorum, great stuff.

Yatagan for its pine vibe, Eau des Iles for a greater smoke

I like Quorum alot, and haven't found anything else quite like it. Definitely not similar to Brut or Smalto PH, as some have suggested. I haven't tried Yatagan, but I am under the impression that Y is "greener" (piney note?) than Quorum... if I recall the Y reviews correctly.

Yep I do think the Yat is greener. Also, it doesn't have the birch tar Quorum's got.

To certain extent, but much lighter on the fougere side and with more citrus: Agua Brava, also from Antonio Puig

To an even lesser extent, Lagerfeld Photo and Azzaro pour Homme
