One of my favourites Chris, I have a large bottle, but it doesn't give out a 'spray' any more, more a direct stream o_O tried fiddling with it ,but it still wont spray :oops:
 
I've also got....

Pure Poisen by Dior
Flower by Kenzo

And I absouletely go weak at the knees when I smell deep musky sensual men's aftershave .... like The One by D&G. ;)

I sometimes wear Allure Homme by Chanel
Gucci by Gucci pour homme.... Think I'd better stop there! :joyful:

I've got a bottle of Miss Dior like that, if I try doing a short squirt it dribbles down side of bottle if I try a stronger spray I get drenched (bottom of tarts handbag syndrome) :hilarious:
 
For me CK and Paul Smith and Davidoff. Use Dove deodorants and my sisters say I have more smellies than them when they visit lol :)

I have worn Polo since the 80's..........

Creed's 'Green Irish Tweed' is a favourite, but its just too expensive!
At the moment I use the body shop's 'Red Musk' oil even though its marketed as a womans scent, I really like the smell.

Creed's 'Green Irish Tweed' is to die for! But I can't afford it. I've only ever smelt it on a shop assistant in the perfumery dept... And ... Well... I just couldn't help myself follow him round the store :joyful:
 
Just remembered, the body lotions to go with your fave perfume can be very expensive, so if you get an unscented body lotion, put a few sprays of perfume in it and give it a good shake. Add more perfume until you've got it right. Much cheaper than paying out for the brands.

Try removing the spray head and soaking in a bowl of warm water, dry well and look down tube clean with a bit of cotton wool or screwed up paper down tube and clear nozzle hole with a bit of fuse wire, sometimes it works but no guarantee

I've heard that perfume is supposed to smell like the old Goya Aqua Manda? Oh how I still dream of that beautiful oatmeal soap and bathoil! I know they've released it in England but heard it's not the same.

I still like Estee Lauder Youth Dew, though some find it too much. Others on my dressing table are YSL Paris, YSL Cinema, YSL Opium. I've got half a bottle left of Jovans Frankinsense & Mhyrr. It's lovely but sadly I've not seen it for some years apart from on ebay for £60 a bottle. And half a bottle of Miss Dior in the bedside cabinet. Mr Chris likes Eau Savage and being an old hippy he likes patchouli

I still love Estee Lauder Youth Dew .. many don't like as it's quite strong but I love it in the winter months. Mr T goes to US once a year on business so I stock up at Xmas with the whole range of products. When I used the bath oil in the downstairs bathroom it makes the house smell nice for a week!
