    For myself, I'm a "Red Door", "Obsession" or "Channel 5" fan.

    On a man, I quite like the scent of "Paco Rabanne" or "Aramis"


    So, which is your favourite scent(s)?

      Dior Hypnotic Poison and Dior Midnight Poison :).......some perfumes make my eyes water and my nose run as I find them a bit much. The two by Dior aren't too over powering for me.

          Guerlain Vetiver for Men is what I always have - even though I'm a lady. Sort of.

          It smells of nutmeg, to me.

              I'll look out for that one as I really like the smell of vetiver essential oil.

                            Used to like Gucci Rush on an old girlfriend. It did very funny, not to mention pleasant, things to me! Then my sister bought some and it killed the 'drive stone dead. Girlfriend was not happy lol

                            Very difficult finding something decent that will be around for a while but not be common. I hate finding out someone else is using the same edt as me. I was using Polo Explorer but they stopped making it and the hunt is on for something new...
