Have you already found it?
Finding the perfect fragrance is like finding the perfect woman. Some people are luckier than others, some will find it early on, and some later on in life. Maybe some will never find it but let us be optimistic.
I'm eager to finding that perfect WOW smelling fragrance that I will stick with it for the rest of my life. I have a gut feeling that it's out there and one day I will find it.
Have you already found it?
If you don't believe in monogamy then maybe this thread is not for you lol

Re: Have you already found it?
Don't think I could ever be content with the "one".
Re: Have you already found it?
Perfect? Definitely not. But Hugo Boss is the one fragrance I can wear any time I am stumped.
Re: Have you already found it?
Some people think they find "it", but nobody ever finds "it"...

Re: Have you already found it?
not perfect but close. This probably sounds Cheesy but I absolutely adore Givenchy Play Intense, it just describes me in every way and..yeah. lol.

Re: Have you already found it?
I have only found two that are close to holy grail status and one that is close to perfect.

Re: Have you already found it?
If you are a collector of frags, you will never find. There will always be affairs....Smile
Versace pour Homme Oud Noir by Versace
Re: Have you already found it?
Well, after a lot of searching, I found the "one." But now it's not as interesting as it used to be. I mean, every time I wear it, I'm still wowed, but the degree of passion with it has diminished. I think that's just human nature, and applies to everything, significant others included.
Doesn't mean it's not still "the one" though. It's still my favorite and I could live with it the rest of my life.
Interesting analogy to women (or significant others), Freschi.

Or Black by Pascal Morabito
Re: Have you already found it?
I haven't found that "one" fragrance that I'd be completely fine with claiming my "one and only". I enjoy the variety far too much, so I doubt I ever will....

Re: Have you already found it?
I haven't found it but I will say Dior Homme is like that girl you can't leave alone.Originally Posted by calilove
Re: Have you already found it?
Ironically was one of the first things I sampled, and 2 years later and many dollars after, it still is the perfect scent for me: Dior Homme Intense
Re: Have you already found it?
This! But I can`t guarantee 100% it will last for the rest of my life. Fahrenheit has everything I`m looking for in a perfect fragrance.Took me many years and it was right under my nose.
the one for me is burberry touch. it could change if i find something else to knock my socks off.
Re: Have you already found it?
I used to think Egoiste was the one. Now I think it's Dior Homme, with Midnight in Paris closely behind (and in the future MIP might become the one with DH taking runner up).
Re: Have you already found it?
I would say Aventus is my go-to
Currently lawyering and DJing in Tokyo. Still obsessed with smelling good

Re: Have you already found it?
When it comes to fragrance, I definitely don't believe in monogamy. With that said, the closest thing to what you call "that perfect WOW smelling fragrance" is, to me, Knize Ten.
Re: Have you already found it?
Black Orchid is the closest I've come - followed very closely by Douce Amere. I haven't smelt nearly enough yet to be sure though...

Re: Have you already found it?
I have classics that will be staples in my wardrobe, But I think I like to pick on my mood to much to stick to just one.
Re: Have you already found it?
Yep, me too! It can get a bit frustrating at times. I still like all of my previous loves - but just as friends......
Re: Have you already found it?
I could wear Portrait of a Lady every day of the week and be quite satisfied... That said, I am glad I don't have to and can use the many other fragrances I love in my collection.
