Here are all the samples I bought. Her descriptions were so odd that I decided to write them down. The only ones she liked were TOBS Jermyn St, TOBS St James, And TOBS Almond. I did a blind test. She had no idea what any of them were. She laid in bed with a sheet over her eyes and just smelled. It's odd that she liked only one brand but she is a TOBS girl I guess. I hope none of these descriptions are offensive to anyone. Her descriptions totally ruined some of them for me. I'll write my favorites after her descriptions.
Scent Descriptions
-------------------------
Barrister & Mann Cheshire: lemongrass
Barrister & Mann Seville: Dad-like
TOBS St James: Clean Sex
TOBS Jermyn St.: She loves it. Favorite scent ever, her aphrodisiac
TOBS Eton College: Very neat old man
TOBS Almond: Her moms shampoo when she was growing up, very nostalgic
TOBS Avocado: Ocean/ pine trees. Kinda girly
TOBS Grapefruit: Pine needles, plant-like
Caties Bubbles Fouet L'Orange: Ginger tea
Caties Bubbles La Piment de la Vie: Laser Tag, dry ice, or fog
Caties Bubbles Irish Coffee: Dimatap medicine with an after smell of corroded battery
Chiseled Face Orange Creamsicle Soap: Clean (specific race of) people
Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber: Middle school bathroom
Chiseled Face Sherlock: Lawn-mowed grass deodorant
Castle Forbes Lime: Pepsi carbonation

LA Shaving Soap Co. Vanilla Eucalyptus Mint: Toothpaste
I actually liked quite a few from the bunch. My favorites were:
*LA Shaving Vanilla Eucalyptus Mint
*TOBS Almond
TOBS Jermyn St
TOBS St James
*CF Lime
*CB Orange
*CB Coffee
CB LPV
B & M Seville
* is my top 5. My aftershave is TOBS Jermyn Street and my wife goes crazy for me when I wear it. When I opened the cream she smelled it before it got to her nose. She loves the stuff. I would have rated it higher probably but i'm pretty used to it now.
Also, my #1 favorite of all time is still TOBS Mr. Taylor.
