I rotate between that Express Honor, and Estee Lauder Pleasures for Men.  I want to get some Armani Code because my brother had some and I liked the way it smelled.

Gotta get on that fresh train. I had Express Honor! It was a blind buy and longevity was nonexistent on my skin. Armani Code is a nice one as I had that one too. Enjoyed wearing it on a night out. Hit up fragrantica.com if you've never heard of it!

You have s nice collection there.    I hear a lot of good things about the Rouge 540.  Need to check it.

Thank you! Definitely grab a vial of it. For me, it gives off a warm and inviting vibe; great in an intimate setting. I admit, I was initially put off by how sweet it was. I wonder if my nose was off that day because it doesn't smell sweet to me anymore. Between the two, I like the perfume extract better because: almond. Subtle difference, but I like it. Since we're on the topic of MFK, I just learned LVMH got a majority stake in the brand. If it isn't obvious, I'm a MFK groupie. I got to meet him when he was in town promoting Aqua Vitae and got my Oud and Aqua Vitae (small bottle that has no more juice) bottles signed. Impulsively grabbed a bottle of scented air bubbles for him to sign too lol. So dumb but hilarious when I look back at it. Wish I wasn't so cringey when I briefly spoke to him but whatever.

And the Frederic Malle - Portrait of a Lady is one I hear is another smooth criminal.  

I have a vial of Portait of a Lady and Carnal Flower. Portrait of a Lady is definitely a popular one.

 

Jo Malone has some nice ones. Always wanted to try Kilian but there's so many I want to try, I just close the tab. Then again, I guess you can say the same with MFK. Van Cleef & Arpel Orchidee Vanille I like during the cooler months and Hermes Terre d'Hermes. I have to smell it again because I don't remember smelling any citrus; just a fucking blast of spice and wood re: Terre d'Hermes.

Let us know what your lady friends say @mr.yuck

curious if they like the scents without knowing the brands

To be honest, Im not really feeling that gucci guilty oud. Im not sure if I blew my nose out with that prada. I'll check again tomorrow but so far the cheap bottle is out performing the expensive bottle.

To borrow from deion sanders; if you look (smell) good, you feel good. You feel good, you play good.

 

Ive been wifed up for quite a while now so its irrelevant to me what another woman thinks. However, I think scent is part of an entire package. I trend towards sweet, floral, sometimes almost candy like unisex fragrances. I think it balances out my overtly masculine personailty. Fashion wise Im almost always in stiff jeans, solid t, ball cap and nikes, a rough ass beard that needs a trim and a big ass pistol on my hip that looks like a hair dryer. But then I tone that down with feminine/womens accessories. Right now Im rocking some pink leopard print cateye sunglasses and have some womens costume jewelry I rock out from time to time. 

 

Back when I was single and hittin the bars hard, I let this kid rock some of my cologne. I heard some girl laughing at him and told him he smelled like a girl. I came up and introduced myself and she didnt have any of that dumb shit to say about me. 

 

But I will put it all to the test. Ill get fresh for my wifes friends and see what they like. Lol

I have/had designer perfumes with better longevity than niche brands. Personally, I like to layer throughout the day even if I'm at home.

 

@ndvThat Acqua di Parma is straight fire, bro. God DAMN.

Bro, I told you.  I have been through two bottles already.  It's a gemtelmesn cologne.  Not sure if you have noticed yet, but women have a tendency to take a deep inhale as if it's forced when passing by or around you.

@swif1 how did you like the smell after the end of the day?  Its settles down very nice throughout the day changing every so slightly.

Dm me, I will send some Aqua di Parma Quercia your way.  From what I gather in your post, you may like this stuff a lot.

Drydown has musk and spice with a hint of cream. Impressive longevity. I plan to wear it again when I'm back from holiday.

 

And I agree this is a classier scent; one you'd wear to formal events or to complement your suit.
