    I got the Sephora mens sampler for Christmas:
    http://www.sephora.com/fragrance-sampler-for-him-P376779



    Suggestions on what I should pick for my full sized bottle?
    I havent tried any of the samples yet cause ive been hooked on my spicebomb.
    Kind of leaning toward Lacoste Eau de Lacoste just because it is the only 3.4 oz , but Ive seen Paco Rabanne 1 Million, and Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme posted here (and in the OG thread) a bunch of times.

    Ysl l'homme is my daily driver since I have the big as bottle is now kept in my car since it's pretty much cool or cold, no drastic change in temp. I also have Jean Paul gaultier, Burberry Brit, Hugo boss and lacoste essential. Looking for another fragrance and was thinking spice bomb or guilty but I heard good things about aventus. I want something smooth yet striking 8)

    The ladies will be rubber necking with this one.

    I use YSL L'Homme or Armani Aqua di Gio for everyday scent but this Dolce at night or on dates is [​IMG].

    I wish I could afford or justify the price of Creed though [​IMG]

    I would assume their shipping methods are legit, I bought from the brick n mortar store tho
    Around $27usd
    No.

    The website can be translated at the top to English, someone let me know if they ship to the US, I can't do it from my iPad.

    London is another that gets good run from me. Bleu as well.

    You just have to try them all. There's some decent fragrances in there. Just depends on what you like best and what works best on you.

    Yo, can someone suggest some new fragrances for me?  

    For reference, some of my favorites that I use are Armani Code, Emporio Armani "He" (highly slept on/forgotten and of the G.O.A.T.s, IMO) and Givenchy Play.  On the heavier tip, I've also rocked with D+G and I currently use YSL La Nuit.

    I've been hearing good things about this One Million--would it be similar to anything I currently use?  Thanks!

    ^ I'm not a fan of 1 Million but I prefer scents that are more natural smelling not synthetic

    I'd recommend something from Chanel's Allure line

    Also a great smelling scent is Dior Homme, it smells like lipstick but it's amazing and chicks LOVE it

    I got 1 Million as a gift and didn't really care for it, but the response from others keeps me rocking it.

    That's why it's an everyday joint. People like it, but I have no problem blazing my way through it.

    Stillin, what do you think of the Burberry line in general? Over the years, I've found myself liking quite a few of their fragrances.

    I think Burberry is hit or miss, their new version of Men that was re formulated in the mid 90's is very good, I also like Weekend but that's a scent you either love or hate

    A lot of people like Touch but I'm not crazy about it.

    A lot if people also love London

    They are usually a good bargain but I don't think any are retail worthy but you can find a lot of them at TJ Maxx and Marshall's

    I got Weekend as a gift from a girl ages ago. I dug it as a summer scent.

    I think I liked their Burberry Summer as well when I sampled it, but never owned.

    I like London and I like Brit. Touch I'm not that into. I have a small sample bottle that I rock every now and then.

    I don't remember liking The Beat much. Burberry for Men seems a bit too old school for me.

    And yes, I've always gotten them pretty cheap.

    Thanks for the info 729 and illphil.  How does 1 Million smell though?  Is it light and fruity?  Or is it heavier?  I can't do the joints that smell like I'm a rugged outdoorsman.  I'm definitely more of the subtle, barely there type of scent dude, for the most part.  

    I guess I'll just hit up my local store and check them out, although I don't think they carry 1 Million.
