The Fragrance Thread & SOTD

Speaking of EYE-talyan scents... Wearing an old bottle of Acqua di Parma, the one that attracts bees pretty reliably.
 
What is the top barbershop scent?
What do you men recommend for a Bay Rum cologne?

There are quite a few. It kind of depends on what style scent you like. More soapy? More tobacco-y?

Bayrum's you're better off just getting some made by one of these people popular on the shaving forums. No designers really make them.

Tobacco-y sounds better, but would you recommend one of each?
 
I met a connoisseur of ouds and ambergris, really aromatic stuff but way too expensive for me.
 
Green discharge leaking from penor. Wafts the flavor of mouldy Murrakan cheese to nostril.
Oily discharge from Arnathorhole that has odor about equivalent to something Leitmotif would show in the food thread, ie shit from Sud America. This dual hole issue is a rarity it seems.
Abrasions on outer shaft but not believed related to condition. Mechanical friction with various holes and substances.
Diagnosis and treatment prescribed + antibiotics and hope will pray to see blight gone within weeks.

OH, WHAT?! THIS ISN'T THE

FRAGRANCE AND STD THREAD!!!

How very disappointing.
 
Trying a sample of Mont Blanc Legend I got with a Sephora purchase. It's bland in a generally pleasant way but I can't make out any distinctive scents. I suppose that's why it's popular.
 
Curion - not much since its discontinued. I still have some of you want some. Hermes Equipage, but it smells more horse-y.

Creed SMW - what does that smell like? It's been too long.

If you figure out what the Curion is going for on eBay and Basenotes I'll be more than happy to sell you mine. I don't have time for leg work at the moment.

AdP is great stuff. Some like the original, some like the Assoluta, some like the Intensa (me). The new Club version sucks, but its kind of got that original Polo green smell if you're in to that. If you're doing Tom Ford, doghouse likes Costa Azzura but I wasn't really that much of a fan.
 
Thinking of buying Aqua di Colonia from Santa Maria Novella. A local spot has it for $75.
 
Finally bought TF London. Vey spicy on the opening, but dries down quite nicely. Sillage is decent, but nothing as aggressive as tobacco vanille. Longevity is also moderate. Still, I quite like it, it's pretty unique, hard to compare it to anything else.

Would you be willing to sell decants to us?
 
Arnathor said:
Oh, the one I would consider is the Di Silicia, I think that is the only one unisex one they have

Why do you need a unisex fragrance?
Monkeyface said:
Too much of a hassle, sorry.

He's being serious. AdC makes some fantastic shit and those are pretty sweet discounts you're getting. You could always sell decants to people to make the money back. I'm sure Thruth would be in for a few.

I shall look for again before I head home!
