    Angry What is your favorite scent with staying power?

    OK I'm looking for a list of your favorite scents (Cologne or Aftershave) with staying power.

    I don't care if you love this imported french stuff made from the dew collected off a unicorrn's hiney that doesn't last longer than 2 hours.

    For instance I like Tabac, 4711, Old Spice, Pinaud Clubman (Clubman heretic!!!), but after few hours max I can barely smell them. However I have a small bottle of Obsession for men (not my favorite but I like it), and I can still smell it when my head hits the pillow.

    It doesn't have to be overwhelming (like getting hit with a mace ) just have the ability to stay with me instead of lingering off to nothing before 10:00 am.

    So far I found these:

    D&G Pour Homme (favorite so far, but i'm out)
    Obsession For Men (kinda flowery, but SWMBO likes it)

    You have your assignment, now start with the replies!

    C.O. Bigelow elixir blue and I am going to guess the rest of the elixirs would to.

    Armani Code

    Domenico Caraceni 1913, last a day and a half.
    The smell, according to the Mrs. is the best she has ever smelled.

    Paco Rabanne 1Million, also has great staying power, but could be considered a "younger" scent.

    Guerlain Vetyver, great classic scent that will stick out in a crowd at 7PM.

    Chech and Speake, #88, another great scent that will last all day.

    I'm useless at describing scents, but look them up on theluckyscent or similar, that will describe them in detail.

    Similar to Castle33, I have the C.O. Bigelow Barber Elixir Black. My wife and daughter like it, and so do I. It stays all day. Go to a Bath & Body Works and check it out.

    Burberry Classic. I really like that... but it must be used in moderation. The force is strong with that one.
    Other than that... old spice. But it really doesn't last that long.

    Well I was going to say Bay Rum and then you had to go mess it up with "staying power". Royall vetevier is great and has great staying power too.

    Vintage English Leather cologne. That stuff stays potent for a long time. Much better than the modern stuff.
