Do you get any booziness to it? I love the stuff.Wow has a citrusy/woody smell to it, subtle, but very nice.....
Have any of you got many Amouage or Parfum De Marly in your collection? I just bought a bottle of Roja - Elysium and it is so good, so so good (alright calm down Pep wannabe). So i am now looking to get a few more of the top end ones. I have almost everything i like from the designer section so looking at the posher juice. I ain't blind buying these though as i will cry if i don't like it and i drop 300 quid on a bottle.
I use this site to get a sample of stuff then get a full bottle https://www.fragrancesamplesuk.com/ so if anyone has any reccomendations i will grab a sample.
Yes, I have Layton exclusif and Herod, both very good

Have you tried Bentley Intense?

No boss but i shall do. Elysium is bright and fresh but not like some aquatic. It has depth. The opening punches you in the face. Like being in a room that had incense burning a few days ago and someone is flaming the acid out of an orange peel on to a cosmopolitan cocktail right next to you.What does roja smell like?

Some say it is like Aventus but i think only in the sense of having the same aim, they go about the smoky pineapple fruityness very differently.

I must have more than 10 bottles in the bathroom cabinet, but I`ve stopped using any since I grew a beard some 3 years ago.

Just ordered a sample of both. I think i have seen a few people gushing with praise for Herod.Yes, I have Layton exclusif and Herod, both very good
Thanks for the suggestions. I shall report back.
Just ordered...
Rasasi La Yuqawam Homme (high quality Tuscan Leather clone i think it is)
Aventus - Already have a full bottle of this but the batches really do vary sadly so i just want to see what this one is like.
Gree Irish Tweed (smoother version of cool water imo)
Penhaligon's Halfeti
Amouage Jubilation XXV Man
Xerjoff Alexandria II (expensive as fuck even compared to some of these other niche fragrances 700 quid i think for 100ml)
Xerjoff 1861 Naxos
Tom Ford Private Blend Mandarino di Amalfi
Tom Ford Private Blend Neroli Portofino
Bleu de chanel ( Chanel Blue) not only a great colour but a wonderful smell!!
Another vote for this, great stuff.

The Rasasi is fantastic better than Tuscan leather to me.
Love green Irish I also have a good clone of it but can’t remember the name!
Halfeti is my go to scent, absolutely stunning!
Aventus as you know is good but varies, have you tried silver mountain water by creed? Similar sort of vibe.

No boss, never smelled it, just ordered a sample though based on your comments. I can't beieve GIT was developed in 1985, it feels very modern, timeless i suppose would be the term most use.The Rasasi is fantastic better than Tuscan leather to me.

I think i'll get a full bottle of some of these you point out if the samples are nice. Never tested any Penhaligons so i am really interested to test that. I will look for the GIt clone to as it is so nice that if the clone is close enough i'll bath in the stuff.
If you think of any more ill defo give them a go boss. I hate going into stores as you feel rushed and go nose blind from the alcohol in them very quick. I also end up buying stuff just because i don't have the heart to walk away empty handed when the lady serving has gone out of their way to help. Thanks for your reccomendations so far, i feel vindicated as some i just randomly clicked so you saying the Halfeti is the dogs has me very intrigued.
What is your signature scent or do you not have one? I think for warm weather this Elysium is going to be mine.
