    I'm looking for an uncommon aftershave/edt available in Dublin, i.e. one that you don't see in every shop/pharmacy.

    What I see around in department stores and Boots etc is the same old stuff.

    Brown Thomas has some uncommon stuff, like Aqua di Parma, not really what I'm looking for I don't think.

    So, anyone got any ideas/suggestions for a forgotten fragrance or an uncommon aftershave.

    It depends on what kind of a fragrance you are looking for really, or even more importantly, how much you want to spend! Something that works in the office, like an Acqua di Parma or any classic cologne, won't necessarily do the job in a nightclub or at a suit and tie occasion. Brown Thomas and Arnotts both have a pretty good selection. I would take a look at the house of Creed or Tom Ford, something for everyone there, although you are looking at anywhere between €75 and €150 for a 50-75ml bottle (EDP). My signature scents for the summer are Neroli Portofino by Tom Ford or Aventus by Creed, and then I have a few others that I wear in the winter like Dior Homme Intense, L'Instant de Guerlain Extreme or YSL M7, depending on the occasion. I'm selling a pretty rare bottle of YSL M7 (100ml EDT) in my ads if you wanna take a look? http://www.adverts.ie/mens-fragrances/ysl-m7-edt-and-shower-gel/3194755
    (Sorry for the shameless advertising!) It's an amazing scent that has been discontinued since 2008 and I guarantee you won't be smelling this on anyone else.

    These guys do some lovely old school fragrances, for really reasonable prices:

    I'd recommend the Sandlewood. It's old fashioned, manly, sophisticated, yet unpretentious. But it really depends on your age and personality, and how you can pull it off.
