    There's an Armani-Mania-shaped box under the christmas tree this year. Nice one :)

    Aventus-Creed,Get compliments off girls all the time on it. It was also reffered to by a girl i know as the "knicker Dropper"

    For the price its not worth it. It's nice, but many many more better scents out there.

    Red by Lacoste seems to have been made with me in mind. :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Received Lancome Hypnotise as a Christmas present. It's pretty nice.

    in past years I've liked Hugo Boss (the original one) but lately it's been Le Male, feckin expensive but a nice scent.

    I don't know how you could say a certain scent is better than another one but personally this is one of my favourites. It's all down to personal taste at the end of the day. Another one i like is Escada Magnetism.
    I guess I don't like wearing the more common ones like Le male, aquadi gio or boss.

    At €150 in BTs it better make knickers drop! :eek:

    Probably as you have to be loaded to be able to afford it and it's the money they really smell :cool:

    Three new additions to the collection

    Armani Code- although I had it before
    YSL L'homme
    YSL La nuit de L'homme

    Not sure how I ended up getting both YSL ones but they're top class. Worn both only once so far and have been asked many times what am I wearing.

    Womena and men so it must be good!

    1 Million by Paco Rabanne

    Had three women sniff my neck when I met them and asking me what I was wearing!

    Farenheit 32, nice everyday scent


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 MartyMcDoodle


    Hugo Boss Bottled
    Lacoste Red
    Hugo Boss Orange
    Dolce and Gabbana The One
    Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male
    Diesel Only The Brave
    CK Be
    Burberry Weekend

    ... etc

    Go and smell them yourself first though. It's all about preference.
    You can try the testers in Boots or Debenhams or any other perfume shops.

    Both oldies but goodies IMHO

    Got a sample of this in a GQ and it smelt great, cant find anywhere local that sells it either so a good one if you dont like to be wearing what everyone else is (Had a bad experience with Paco Robane 1 million in this regard)

    That's a nice one, but fairly common. It's in plenty of outlets too.

    Which one's have you seen it in? I tried Debenhams, The Perfume shop and Boots but none of them had it.

    Its easy to get in online stores of course but most people I know dont buy online unless its something they bought before.

    Clery's, Arnott's, and House of Fraser in Dundrum.

    Picked up a few bottles of my usual fragrances in the Arnotts sale last week, quite pleased with the saving, though I need to expand my range so this thread has been quite useful for recommendations. I tried CK Obsession and CK Free which I was recommended and really didn't like either, I guess my nose must be broken as they seem to be loved by many.

    I'm quite surprised Diesel Plus Plus hasn't gotten a mention here though, I love the refreshing sweetness of it and it's not overpowering at all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,724 ✭✭✭Vanbis


    I've used Cool water and Hugo Boss but the last couple of years i've settled on Armani Code.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,385 ✭✭✭✭D'Agger


    Have a number of aftershaves atm that I'm fairly pleased with - 1 million, Armani code, Le Male, Channel Allure Sport

    I'm thinking of getting a small bottle of Lacoste Red however - I miss that fragrance, haven't had it in ages!

    Not sure if I should be going for slightly older fragrances atm however - nearly 24 and want to move away from teenage fragrances - feel this is what I might be going back to if I get Lacoste Red

    Any Suggestions?

    Gucci Guilty. It's lovely!
    Was thinking Gucci by Gucci but it's a bit musky/strong - not sure about it but I'll check out guilty cheers awec :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Gucci by Gucci is disgusting.
    If you want an older fragrance go for something like Chanel Bleu

    If you're in Armagh Niall you're closest one is unfortunately Victoria Square in Belfast.

    That is actually only about 5 minutes from where I work and 30 minutes from where I live, quite handy, never thought to try there, cheers.

    I used it a bit when I was younger than about 3 years ago my gf at the times parents bought me one of the huge bottles.

    I never really liked it the first time round and that bottle is still 90% full.

    Not a fan at all, never had anyone comment on it either to say its nice or otherwise.

    Had numerous comments about it when I had it when I was younger so I find that odd tbh :confused:

    I hate having huge bottles of aftershave unless it's a firm favourite!
