Trader Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 My man likes Paul Smith and so do I Is he on the turn?
SNSUN Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 My man likes Paul Smith and so do I The wife likes me in John-Paul Gaultier. I get a bottle every Christmas. I prefer Hugo Boss. My brother-in-law swears by Paco Rabanne. Just go into Boots, try a shed load of them, and come out smelling worse than before you went in.
FloridaMarlin Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 Chanel Blue - a classic men's fragrance. In summer or the depths of winter when I feel I need a bit of sunshine in my life, Clinique Happy. A couple away from the usual suspects; 360degrees by Perry Ellis (An American cologne stocked by very few shops, but available online at cheapsmells.com) and Due by Laura Biagiotti. Still not sure about Spicebomb by Viktor & Rolf (the male equivalent of Flowerbomb).
bridge too far Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 What do you like your better halves to wear? Florida Marlin just mentioned Clinique Happy - the 'female' version is one of my favourites. Calvin Klein Eternity Summer and Moments are always welcomed too
Spudders Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 Stevo, trust me... Terre d'Hermes. This Also Prada Amber Intense
cryoman1965 Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 Brut. Blue Stratos. Old Spice. That's all you need. Forget these new fangled odours.
dubai_phil Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 Fahrenheit OMG. I never had you down as a man of taste GS. (For the others on here I have owned 3 bottles of the above, all given to me by women)
dubai_phil Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 Boss Night for me. Ah yes, who could forget the smell of 30,000 people at a Springsteen Concert?
buctootim Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 OMG. I never had you down as a man of taste GS. (For the others on here I have owned 3 bottles of the above, all given to me by women) Yes but some women buy stuff they would wear. I used to like that but decided after a while it was too effeminate. Issey Miyake now.
Nellie Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 Chanel Blue - a classic men's fragrance. Absolutely. Platinum is also worth a mention.
hypochondriac Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 Carolina Herrera 212 vip for men is the way to go.
Dr. Kucho Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 Chanel - Alure homme sport Patrick Dempsey - Unscripted Or if you have some money to spend, Yves Saint Laurent - La Nuit de l'homme
Tony F Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 OMG. I never had you down as a man of taste GS. (For the others on here I have owned 3 bottles of the above, all given to me by women) Would that be three women who all think you've got a personal hygiene problem, maybe? Now I know Dubai's a sweaty place but they can't all have been wrong.....??
saintbletch Posted 28 October, 2013 Posted 28 October, 2013 The wife likes me in John-Paul Gaultier. I get a bottle every Christmas. I prefer Hugo Boss. My brother-in-law swears by Paco Rabanne. Just go into Boots, try a shed load of them, and come out smelling worse than before you went in. Paco Rabanne is for old men. Personally, I use Paco Rabanne.

John Boy Saint Posted 29 October, 2013 Posted 29 October, 2013 (edited) All depends which way the wind is blowing on a given day. Gucci - Guilty Issey Miyake - Eau Fraiche Marc Jacobs - Bang i have some Dior sport but as the day wears on it's like someone in the blending department was having a laugh as increasingly it smells like you have been rolling about in the bucket of Half Time Orange skins. Also lurking is a bottle of common old Aqua Di Gio which gets a run out now and again, and Tiffany (The jewellers) Sport. All a bit different from the the days of Brut and Denim which seemed to give way to Aramis applied by the bucket full followed by Paco Rabanne which just needed the merest squirt to last a week. In Boots the other day I saw what looked like a new Yves Saint Laurent (dumpy bottle - blue writing) nicked a squirt and Mrs JBS said it smelt "ooo very nice", but then just as quickly it stopped working: ho hum!! Most of the time I just can't be bothered though. Edited 29 October, 2013 by John Boy Saint
saint_stevo Posted 30 October, 2013 Author Posted 30 October, 2013 Gone for the Hermes stuff....pricey tho! also got Kenneth Cole 'RSVP' on a whim....no idea how it whiffs
Bearsy Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 The wife likes me in John-Paul Gaultier. yeah the one that comes in a white man (*) is like cat-nip for birds. * joke withdrawn
Special K Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Paco Rabanne is for old men. Personally, I use Paco Rabanne. Same here. Loads of it with an open neck shirt (with 2 top buttons undone), Sports Jacket, soft top motor and Sade on the stereo. I am Ken Masters.
THINWHITEDUKE Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Tsar edt by van Cleef & Arpels only available on Amazon or cheap smells. Absolutely loaded with testosterone and female baiting pheromones.
eurosaint Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 What do you like your better halves to wear? Florida Marlin just mentioned Clinique Happy - the 'female' version is one of my favourites.

Marsdinho Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 A few Christiano Ronaldo's on here it seems.
saintbletch Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Same here. Loads of it with an open neck shirt (with 2 top buttons undone), Sports Jacket, soft top motor and Sade on the stereo. I am Ken Masters. And medallion. You forgot the medallion Special K. I've just realised that actually do have a St. Christopher's medal. I need a makeover.
Tokyo-Saint Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Boss Night for me. I never thought we'd smell like each other Turks but now that we do, I feel a kind of bond with you. Always thought you were more likely to be into a masculine fruity Italian?
Special K Posted 1 November, 2013 Posted 1 November, 2013 And medallion. You forgot the medallion Special K. I've just realised that actually do have a St. Christopher's medal. I need a makeover. Bletch, medallions are sooo passe. Gold soverign rings however.......
Barry Sanchez Posted 1 November, 2013 Posted 1 November, 2013 Finished up my 1Million at the weekend an decided i don't want to smell like a c*** any more. What's nice? I'm falling back on Issey Miyake now and as i'm not 17 i can no longer pull it off. Ideas? I have had Issey for 20 years, belting smell that, use CK one and cerruti si, I am old school I never really change my lot, the wife puts all new stuff in the bathroom but I never try it.
saintbletch Posted 1 November, 2013 Posted 1 November, 2013 Bletch, medallions are sooo passe. Gold soverign rings however....... Like I said Special K, I need a makeover. I'm sure Gok will introduce me to these "sovereign rings" you speak of...
