Personally I’ve been rocking Sauvage by Dior for a while

    Freshly ground coffee, pine forest and wet asphalt are pretty nice.

    When it comes to humans, my favourite smell is no smell.

      That’s an excellent answer actually, I should have asked about smell in general rather than fragrance

    I have some fragrances from small companies that got their start making shaving soap. Barrister & Mann’s Lavender, Interrupted is probably my favorite.

    For men, I like sauvage a lot. Also Code and aqua di gio. For myself i mix it up depending on outside temp - Code, Valentino, eternity, coco, and a couple of cheap Victoria’s secret ones that are just light, fresh scents.

    Glastonbury, by Stirling Soap Company. They’re one of those small soap makers that focus on the traditional wet shaving community, but many of their soap scents are available as colognes. Glastonbury is only available in the spring, but they have one called Baker Street which is a good one, too.

    I also really like their Bergamot and Lavender scent. It’s not available as a cologne, but they have it as an aftershave, and it still lasts all day.

    Bandit by Robert Piguet. Original formulation was discontinued so hoarding it for special occasions. Haven’t been brave enough to try Bandit Supreme

    I’m horribly sensitive to perfume and it all makes my nose burn. My CW used to wear essential oils every day and I finally had to beg her not to as I had to get stronger puffers just to sit in her vicinity at work. I honestly don’t know how anyone stands it.

      That’s likely for clothing and stuff. Fragrances are usually made in France.

      This doesn’t change the fact that fashion corporations are bad, but the fragrance industry is not like the clothing industry.
