Thread: Need suggestions for unique AS splash

I like the Dominica Bay Rum w. lime scent. It's very fresh, crisp, and subtle... the scent does not linger much, and I can add a splash of eau de toilette on top for those special occasions :-). By comparison, I find the Royall Lyme interesting, but a bit too sweet, strong and lingering for my taste, as with the other Royall scents I have, Mandarin and Vetiver.

Funny that 4711 is still around - I remember it well from my childhood in Germany 50 yrs. ago! It was the only scent my dear Grandma ever used, and although I truly loved her, I never cared very much for the strong smell of lavender at the heart of 4711. The topnotes are bergamot and citrus, and the base is neroli, but that lavender still lingers in my phantom nose!

Since you like 4711 - they have a few new spinoffs that might be worth sampling: Acqua Colonia and Nouveau Cologne
