What are the top COMFORT scents?

Lem

[Bigsly]

It depends largely on personal preference. About two years ago, I would have named some gourmand frags. Now, I'd say leathers like Cuir de Lancome, but that's because I find myself enjoying leather frags more than any other kind.

Blimey, there are some surprising suggestions in this thread!

Open fires, cashmere sweaters, mugs of cocoa. Surely this is conjuring images of snowy winter scenes?

This makes me think of Burberry London. Although Pi and Eau des Baux are good calls.

Rochas Man

[Niles]

Barbershop style fragrances are among my comfort scents: Old Spice and Pinaud Clubman, for example.

One more vote for Dior Homme and Habit Rouge

[mrcologneguy]

Dior Homme Intense. Perfect for a cozy night at home.

I was just thinking today what a comforting scent Tobacco Vanille is. If you are looking for a "cold winter night next to the fireplace" smell, Ikon by Zirh always conjures those images for me. The best part about Ikon is that you can buy a 100,000,000,000 ml bottle for around $10. LOL

Opium Ph EdP
Sables
Polo

I love threads like this, since fragrances that evoke 'comfort' are some of the ones I reach for the most. Of course, I think that it goes without saying that most of these scents contain lavender or vanilla or they smell sort of 'powdery'. That is not to say that all lavender/vanilla/powdery scents smell comforting - because there are many examples where this is untrue. Nonetheless, these accords seem to easily 'relax' me and in turn the more that I wear them when I am relaxed the more they 'relax' me.

Mine are:

Shalimar (Eau de Cologne) by Guerlain [note: Shalimar parfum is NOT a comfort scent, it's too resinous/animalic/smoky]
Flower by Kenzo
Caron Pour Homme by Caron
Apres l'Ondee by Guerlain
Spiriteuse Double Vanille by Guerlain
Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford
Madeline by Ava Luxe [this stuff smells like eggnog, how can you wear it & not feel comforted!?]

[Sensual]

Happy (Clinique)
Oud Wood (Tom Ford)
M7 (the drydown after 2.5 hours)
Blue Jeans (Versace)

[Neurosis]

A*Men and Mugler Cologne slap a big o'le smile on my face

[BarneyB]

L'Occitaine Eau des Baux

another nod to Burberry London or John Varvatos Vintage, either would do the trick

[CanwllCorfe]

L'instant de Guerlain Pour Homme eau Extreme! Soft, slightly sweet, slightly spicy. Nice and warm as well and it features a beautifully comforting cocoa note.

[StylinLA]

I like Habit Rouge Beau Cavalier, Creeds Royal English Leather and L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme as comfort scents.

[Daryl J.]

Old Spice EdC selling for $7.99, Reflection Man for $260, and Bois du Portugal for somewhere in between.

As I get to dress down in sweats, sit in front of Mrs. J.'s Lazy Boy on the floor and quietly finish the evening reading together, I find myself turning principally to these 3 scents and I rank them equals in terms of ''warm, fuzzy, and happy.'' That being said, Cologne pour le Soir is very good for the evening.

[Fletch31]
