I inhaled and i agree. Have you tried the Concentree version? If not, you really owe it to yourself.

I haven't tried it. I want to, it's locating it that's the problem!

Yet another vote for BDP- so brash and powerhouse at first, so subtle as it starts to gradually dry down.

Tiffany for Men
PdN New York

Welcome to Basenotes...

I would like to include:

Gucci Pour Homme Original (1976)
Vintage Caron Le Troisieme Homme
Vintage Dior Eau Sauvage
Vintage Guerlain Habit Rouge EdC
Vintage Guerlain Vetiver EdC
& Original Vintage Paco Rabanne Pour Homme

Sophistication is quite often perceived by not only how you smell - but your attire, how you carry yourself in conversation & subtleties that exemplify your quiet confidence. Leonardo da Vinci said that, "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."

Cheers.

Bois du Portugal - Creed

["Scentapede"]

Kudos for mentioning Richard James, Savile Row (2003). It is extremely classy. I just sprayed some on my arm and i must say it smells like a beautiful masculaine floral. It has a lot of ingredients listed so when analyzing the fragrance on paper, lets just say it seems like it would smell messy w notes stepping over notes, but nothing could be further from the truth, the scent is blended wonderfully. I can definately get some citrus, tobacco, leather along with many other. Its flawless as far as sophistication goes, IMHO.

[Oupavoc]

To me and I'm surprised no one else mentioned it. By reading the title to this thread...Ivasion Barbare came straight to mind. Very well done and sophisticated scent.
