Another supporter of Guerlain Heritage. I'd add Chanel Egoiste EDT as another choice.
If you can find the EDT Cologne Concentree those bottles have good performance and longevity.
There's a saying "talk to the hand cause the head don't understand"
Givenchy Pi EDT - Received by family member, first ever bottle owned 12 years ago. Still own the bottle today.

Congrats on this Body Kouros find from 2003. I've yet to try this scent myself.
I tried the aftershave for Egoiste it was more or less a lighter concentration of it, think EDC. The aftershave of A Gentleman's Cologne would probably would follow suit.
How much did you spend on...
Spot on. To this day I can't fully appreciate the current formulation, it just doesn't have the magical glow like the original formulation.

I'm not in favor of layering stuff as I prefer wearing each scent individually.
You got some nice choices.

Givenchy Pi EDT
Givenchy Pi EDT - First scent ever owned. Currently enjoying the small symbol original formulation, a wonderful oriental dry down. Brings back memories of Y2K.
A great collection of Chanels and Guerlains.
There's isn't one.
All in new condition I'm assuming, looking forward to hearing verdict on these.

Does it smell anything remotely similar to Egoiste? bottle is very satisfying to look at.
Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche would be the best choice for scent and performance. Eau Sauvage and Pour Monsieur are good in the earlier formulations.
Bottle looks wonderful, hopefully it smells nice.
For me the original was the most memorable for all the releases. Let us know which ones you like from the set.

Many of the Malle scents including Carnal Flower have changed since I first was introduced to them 10 years ago. Around 2011-12 or somewhere near that time the matted caps were replaced, that's...

What a collection, well done. :beer:
Guerlain Sous Le Vent - It's the original 1930s formulation. A wonderful chypre scent that is great from start to finish. Difficult to find and whenever found it goes for a premium. My favorite...
Not that kind of person to do so.
Not a bad selection, hope some of these work for you.
It's worth sampling all of these to figure which of these are good to your nose. As for myself IMO none of these are good choices.

Doesn't seem too appealing but if I did see it available for testing I probably sample it once and be done with it.
Givenchy Gentleman is a great pickup
A great find.
Bottle presentation looks great
Vintage is a lot better than what is available now. As for age group, if the individual enjoys this kind of scent then it shouldn't really matter.

Gucci Pour Homme - After wearing Derby, I decided Gucci Pour Homme should get a wearing. It's quite close to Derby - another chypre leather scent that isn't as expensive as the latter. A great...
Duran Duran - Rio
Vodka Martini - cocktail
Gucci Pour Homme
They're different scents, both are good in their own right. Eau de Rochas Pour Homme skews for fresh and lemony while Moustache is more of an aromatic barbershop scent that's fresh and spicy.

I tend to wear all of my Chanels during the summer - Egoiste EDT, Egoiste Cologne Concentree, Antaeus, Antaeus Sport, Pour Monsieur, Pour Monsieur Cologne Concentree, Allure Homme Edition Blanche,...
The older bottles are good although L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme skews more fresh and floral than citrus.
Personally I would avoid knock offs.
Silver Mountain Water is more wearable of the two as it's more fresh and versatile. I would recommend choosing Xerjoff Mefisto over SMW as they're fairly similar.
I could care less what Creed does anymore, in my eyes they no longer exist.
I'm just happy enjoying their older bottles that I've came across over the years, those are worth collecting.
Both iterations of Pour Monsieur are excellent especially if they appear to be nearly full and perhaps unused. These are worth hoarding for liberal application purposes.

I have to say I enjoyed the women's version a little bit more than the men's. The men's version I thought was unisex. It was a bit strange for my nose - the florals with the animalic base made it...
Chanel Pour Monsieur - SOTM(Day 7)
Guerlain Derby - One of the finest classic scents for men to own. A smooth chypre scent with a leather finish in the base. A timeless classic that always puts a smile on my face whenever worn.

That's the one.
Notes look interesting. I'm curious to know what others think of it once it becomes available.

Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche EDT Cologne Concentree
L'Eau d'Issey must have been very potent back in 2004, it's good stuff.
X and 1872 are great, hope you like them.

If anything the temperature would have the most impact in my decision but it would come most down to preference, the mood, and the occasion.
If you don't mind eucalyptus Creed Royal Mayfair could work.
Several years ago there was a individual here who was looking for a bottle of Creed Tabarome Millesime on ebay. To his surprise he wound getting a bottle of Vintage Tabarome, it was a tester bottle. ...
