    Just got some T&H Grafton. Wasn't particularly enamored with it at first, but it has grown on me.

    Honestly, you are better off just spending $40 on a bottle of Davidoff Cool Water. Unless you have a really good sniffer, you will not notice a much of a difference.

    T&H Grafton= Davidoff Cool Water= Creed Green Irish Tweed

    They are all very similar.

    Depends on the agenda

    Day to day during the work week - Nothing but what the shave soap and alum leave.
    Weekends - Bay Rum
    Out on the Town - Lagerfeld (I've had the same bottle for almost 20 years which shows how often I get out). That is the scent that brings back great memories of great times.

    I really enjoy Tommy Bahama Signature... Good to wear all the time IMHO.

    Indeed Davidoff do make cigars, some of the best on the market IMHO. In terms of scents I have fallen in love with GFT Astor and Eau de Quinine lately. I have been wearing Jazz by Yves St Laurent for years and still love it.

    I wore this today. Very nice frag, although it doesn't seem to last long on me. I really like Terre de Hermes, too.

    So, interesting question:

    Maybe I differ, but I try to find an entire line with a scent I enjoy: Soap (cause I am a soap man), Balm (gotta da dry skin - specially with the soap), and etd.

    This makes things difficult.

    Starting off, I enjoyed Taylor's Eton College, but no aftershave balm. Then I found T&H Trafalgar, 1805, and Grafton, but realized I preferred soaps - as soaps gave me less irritation/ irritation free shaves.

    So now I am going with D.R. Harris Arlington - enjoy the scent, but not enamored with it.

    Whats the word on finding an entire line of scent - soap, balm, and edt?
