Alfred Dunhill Dunhill Icon Absolute

Nice cheap Western "oud".

Dior Homme Sport

Reformulated three times. Have 2012 and 2017. Inoffensive. Not something I'd go out of my way to buy, but I got them cheap. I keep a 50 mL bottle of one in my dopp bag and a bigger 125 mL of the other on my nightstand. Don't ask me which is which, they're "generically sporty" but they smell good.

Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gio Profumo

Like the original but grown up and better in every way.

Armani Attitude

Sadly "discontinued". This is the cultured granddaddy of clubbanger stank like "One Million". And it came in a bottle that looked like a Zippo.

I may or may not have purchased an unholy amount of "Armani 5x Sampler Pack" shit that included a piss tiny, single digit mL bottle of this, sold the other 4 colognes x unholy #, decanted all the piss tiny Attitude bottles into a larger one with a decent sprayer, and given the Sephorabux that earned to a very happy younger sister.

Hugo Boss, Boss in Motion

Small silver ball, orange trim - I only say that because there were like twenty of them afterwards and I have no idea what any of the others smell like. "Generic fresh sporty citrus" scents are a dime a dozen, no need to spend any extra on a fancy one, considering this is one of the OGs. And because it's old it's dirt cheap, with a cool as fuck bottle too. The trigger for the sprayer is the entire base of the ball. I think this might've been the second bottle of cologne I bought myself in high school, after Pi. If you've ever smelled the regular "Boss", Boss Bottled, this is like it made out with "generic men's body wash".

Mugler A*Men Pure Havane

Nice boozy tobacco scent.

S.T. Dupont pour Homme

I got this as a gift. You will smell like an oji-san, but it smells nice. It also doesn't turn to shit if you smoke a cigar while wearing it, and is apparently a dead ringer for Cartier Declaration which costs twice as much.

Nice, but with poor longevity, weak silage, or both

Dolce&Gabbana The One for Men

Bought it blind at a discount store because it supposedly had a tobacco note. Nice for a night out, stays close to the skin. 404 tobacco not found.

Yves Saint Laurent La Nuit de L'Homme

Had an original bottle, loved it. Tried it on at a department store many years later, wore off before I got home. Found out it had been reformulated. Sad.

Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Ultime

Might be a skin chemistry thing, people seem to think it lasts forever. Reminded me of "The One".

Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Parfum Intense

Smells stronger, lasts even less than Ultime. Starting to see a pattern here?
