    So,

    I was curious to hear what scents you folks enjoy, namely Colognes, Aftershaves and EDT's..........But it can include any scents you like :)
    ......I don't know that I have a "Signature Scent" but I do have a couple favorites.....:)

    #1 favorite currently = Penhaligon's Castile.....I really like the Neroli / Bitter Orange Blossom scent....;)


    What do you reach for most in your arsenal of scents? you can list whatever you enjoy :cool: Enquiring minds want to know :happy005

    Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce is my most often used at the moment, and other faves include Hugo Boss, Polo Sport, and Drakkar.

    Definitely no Aqua Velva! :D

    TSD Chocolate -I just love wakening to fresh brewed coffee and Chocolate shave soap. But I'm a chocoholic.

    JayKay 3000 posts and all I got was this lousy title

    I've got a bit of a collection of variation. The dressed up scent would be gucci pour homme II. Than the nice citris day scents would be D&G light blue, ADG, Kenneth Cole Reaction, Ferragamo signature, and Burberry Men.

    Floris Santal and I've bought almost everything they sell in the Santal scent, soap, shaving cream, Cologne, Extreme Cologne, after shave lotion, and after shave balm.

    They just discontinued the santal shave cream. It's one of my preferred cold weather scents.

    I don't really have a signature scent. However, a couple of real favorites in my stash right now are Pecksniff's Oriental Woody, Grey Flannel, and Classic Match (Aramis clone). Too bad the Florida weather isn't conducive to wearing these all the time. :(

    Yup... I went into their store on Jermyn St last week and it's definitely gone :(

    I think my signature scent would be Proraso Green Aftershave Splash, I just love it...

    I've been very partial to Vetiver lately, specifically, Guerlain's...

    My sense of smell isn't the greatest; I tend to rely on my wife's reaction to the scents. If she likes it and it doesn't offend me, it's in.

    Lighter:
    Marc Jacobs
    Montblanc "Presence Cool"
    Alfred Sung "Hei"

    Darker:
    Kiehl's #1 Original Musk
    Zirh Corduroy
    Davidoff "Silver Shadow"

    So I guess it's no "Signature" scent for me, I'm kinda all over the road.

    I only wear EDTs or colognes about once or twice a week, and they vary depending on the mood, but with my soaps/creams and aftershaves, there is definately a lime trend.

    John Varvatos. Very versatile. I only reach for the Chanel Platinum Egoiste when I have to wear a suit for a presentation. Although I have been trying the sample of Floris Santal I have, and its pretty good!

    During the week I alternate Pinaud Clubman, Pinaud Classic Vanilla, and Old Spice (all AS). On the weekends I find myself reaching for the Floris Vetiver more often than not.
