seems like a rather knowledgeable bunch of noses here so i'll post up my pic of frags...

this pic was from a couple years ago so i have about another dozen or so new ones since then...

P.S The light show was just "for show"...i would never subject my bottles to extended periods of heat! oh... and check it.. Jean Patou Pour Homme! biggrin.gif

I currently have burberry touch,armani code,l'eau d'issey,escada sentiment,lacoste essential,paco 1million,eternity,ck one and terre de hermes.

I think that burberry touch and armani code smells almost the same. Currently i'm considering buying sean john unforgiveable,DnG light blue or chanel egoiste.

Can any of you guys suggest other cologne that doesn;t smells like any of the one that I currently have? planning to smells some of them this weekend before buying.
I'm looking for something that suits my age(37).

i am familiar with all in your collection as well as your proposed frags...

of the list i'd say chanel egoiste will fit the bill most as it is a rose floral that just ooozes class and machimo... perfect for dress up and evening use...
id also consider Guerlain Heritage for something that smells totally different from egoiste but is equally capable to serve those functions...
both these orientals are a genre that is missing in your current stable...if you not familiar with this sort and it MAY give you a vibe of "old man" when u first sniff...

the burberry that you should be investigating is burberry london... which is the most intersting of the house... plus, you gotta dig the gingerbread note... great for x-mas parties innit...

avoid the unforgivable and light blue... generic frags which smell like every other guy...

Versace Dreamer is a modern day classic... the opening "gunpowder" note may put you (and many others off immediately) but wait half hour later and sniff your wrists again...sray your pillow before a night out then come back and sniff... the dry down is to die for!

Gucci Pour Homme (1) is far superior to Gucci Pour Homme 2... (1) reminds me of pencil shavings and temple incense.. a glorious oriental... and its rather hard to come by these days...

(2) to me just like a citrus base that smells too a bit too conservative...

go crazy and smell more! smile.gif

Girls are suckers for Micheal Kors and Terre D'Hermes

to me the M Kors smells like ive been drinking a nice Cognac...
does the trick tho...

Terre D'Hermes might just be the best all round scent released in the last few years...
