Nicest fragrance

Just bought Creed's Irish Green Tweed. Fabulous stuff. I'd place this at number one at the moment.

On the basenotes forum. http://www.basenotes.net/forums/142-Fragrance-Splits-Board

A poster in Spain does splits. Postumo is his name.
65 euro for 50ml.

A poster on this thread gave me the details a while ago.

Hope this helps.

Just as an aside.....could you name some of the better places to buy online that are good value. Perhaps a mod could add the links to the OP?

You might laugh but hollister aftershave is always a favourite. It's quite fruity and strong. Always get complimented on it (disclaimer - I don't shop there, was given a voucher that needed spent )

Alternatively, Clinique do a lovely one which I personally cant get enough of, another fruity one but very subtle. Love wearing it in the hot weather. Edit - it's called Clinique Happy

I got a free sample of it a while back but I never actually used it.

Lacoste Blanc is my current favourite summer-type fragrance. I've had a couple of bottles of it now, and I think I'll keep going back.

Just had a quick look online for it.... Boots have a great offer at the moment. Eau de Toilette 100ml, deodorant stick 75ml & shower gel 100ml for €30.99, whereas just the Eau de Toilette 100ml on it's own is €70.50!! :eek:

Off the top of my head some of my favourites include Chanel Allure Homme Sport, Giorgio Armani Armani Code, Clinque Happy, D&G Light Blue and CK One.

My next purchase will probably be Tom Ford Noir (the EDT version)

The Creed fragrances are a different league.

Chanel Allure Homme Sport is one of my favourites. Also Dior Sauvage, very close between them.
Never tried Armani code but I have used Armani diamonds, nice fragrance but it was too light.

Really? I love it. If I could get away with wearing it myself I would.

Maybe the scent brings me Back to my youth and teen discos

I've grown a collection since my Aunty decided they're the better to buy than chocolate in dutyfree.

YSL La Nuit De L'Homme is my go to night out choice.
Switch between Paul Smith extreme (I think), Bleu de chanel, Calvin Klein Euphoria or Avon h2o.

I hear Tom Ford Tobacco Vanilla is nice, out of my price range though.

JIdontknow

Debenhams have 10-50% off certain fragrances at the moment, incase anyone is looking.

Tried Tom Ford's Tuscan Leather for the first time today. Superb fragrance. I think it'd rank #2 on my list below Creed Aventus as things stand. In all my years I've still never come across a fragrance that gets me as many compliments as Aventus.

So.. I picked up a bottle of this, it is very very like Aventus in the basenote. No, it IS Aventus in the basenote. The Top note and dry down might be different, I can't really remember that aspect of the sample of Aventus I got that well, but still nice.

A thumbs up from me.

Heading to NYC soon - there's hardly anywhere there that does your Creeds and Tom Fords etc at a bit cheaper than BT et al do?!
