    Gentlemen:
    I don't know how many fragrances I have tried through the years, but in my little shaving world, Spanish Leather, by Trumper and Truefitt & Hill, as well as Woods of Windsor, still rule.

    RazoRock baby blue aftershave, I've gotten quite a few compliments from the ladies when I use it. $33 for a little over 4oz I believe. Nice barber shop smell w/ slight citrus undertone, feels good man.

    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    I have quite a few, but my favourites are:

    Acqua di Parma Essenza di Colonia
    Guerlaine Vetiver
    Eau Sauvage Cuir
    Dior Fahrenheit (eek - don't hit me!)

    I'd love to try the Amouage and Lion of Judah fragrances though. Tried most of the Creed offerings, but didn't really take to them, unfortunately.

    Regards,
    Neil

    I recently tried
    Jean Paul Gaultier - Le Male
    May be one of my favorite to date.

    I will agree with that sentiment (on Pinaud Clubman), at least as it pertains to SWMBO.

    How could I have forgotten Sigilli?

    Ferfaæn, Athunis, and Claudiæ all deserve mentioning! The former is a citrus/mint, Athunis is vetiver/cedar, and the latter is patchouli/tomatoe leaf. If only they were available through a US seller, rather than a single internet merchant in Germany...

    Default Great Fragrances

    "Divine am I, inside and out, and I make holy what-
    ever I touch, or am touched from,
    The scent of these arm-pits, aroma finer than prayer,
    This head more than churches, bibles, and all the creeds.
    If I worship any particular thing, it shall be some of
    the spread of my own body."
