What's your favorite?
And you're favorite women's perfume?
Mine is Thierry Mulger Alien at the moment.

CanDo,
I once went to a fragrance review site looking to answer the same question.
I came upon the listing for Herrera for men and quickly read the rating as "Paint Remover"!

I thought, "Shit, that was a nasty rating"

But,I re-read it more carefully and it actually said "Panty Remover"!

Ran right out and got some.

It worked.

Poppy, I liked 212 but have never bought a bottle - I smelled it at Dillards one time but chose to go with Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey. I smelled it later very strong when American Psycho came out in theaters so now it reminds me of that movie - I don't know what to think bout that.

I like Armani Code but my favorite was Emporio Armani until I bought it - for some reason it did not smell that great on me.

You can't go wrong with Victoria's Secret perfumes or Calvin Klein colognes but I tend to not get too mainstream, you know the ones that everybody wears.

I totally left out my favorite from 2005 - Yves St. Laurent Rive Gauche cologne! Spectacular!!

My old fave is Polo Blue, but I've also come to like F by Ferragammo. I don't know what the F stands for but I can take a guess. lol
I love Eternity Summer. It was a special blend and it smells great.
I don't know.... I was always partial to:

Hai Karate
Old Spice
British Sterling

But then I always did like the tall buxom woman driven wild by a scent...

Be careful how you use it.

(I should think all the providers here are far too young to know what I am writing about)
I like Issey or Armani on a man and even the Lacoste (red bottle) smells sexy on a man.

I'm with you SP! Love that polo green. Obsession for men is a close third and my ATF although its a bit hard to come by these days is Lagerfeld.
