what's your comfort scent?

[Shavely Manden]

CF 1445. It makes me feel distinguished, respectable...in control, I guess you could say. Plus, just one of my favorite scents...my favorite parts of T&H Grafton with some ferny top notes thrown in.

 

[SeattleSparky]

+1, also Azzaro

The original Polo Green. It was my first scent and will always have a place in the 'drobe. It reminds me of a time when life was "simpler". Every so often I will break it out and mentally reminisce about the good old days

 

[The Nid Hog]

Caldey Island Lavender

+1

I'd have to add Grey Flannel too.

 

[Duke of Pall Mall]

Guerlain's Du Coq or Penhaligon's Douro.

 

[Featherweight]

It depends on what I need comfort from. Generally it's either Grey Flannel or Allure Homme. But lately this winter has been so bad that I needed to clear out my heavy winter frags and just put out the clean spring stuff to lift my mood. Add a little color where there is none.

Vanilla, Sandalwood.

But the best was this Ocean/beach incense that my buddy gave me.
He took it from his sister. there was only one stick and it was amazing.
I lost the package years ago and I have no idea where to get it again.

 

[Dave in the basement]

Popcorn!

 

[Puig]

+1 on lavenders. Puig splash or one of the other Spanish lavenders, or Yardley's lavender which is very much like Caron Pour Homme minus the Play-Doh middle notes.

 

[Mr.Maduro]

Definately the original Polo. (green bottle)

 

[gaj90027]

Encre Noire has an incredibly relaxing and comforting effect on me.

 

[adaumus]

l'occitane vetyver or old spice, lightly applied.

+1!!

[Sapian]

True Religion...
Yeah... It's not great. Very sweet. But I wore it everyday for over a year not too long ago. It brings me back to a simpler time

 

[jmit]

Polo Green for my misspent youth or Old Spice to remember my time on my grandparents farm during summers.

 

[p.m.a.]

Muffins, pumpkins, wax paper, caledonia mahogany's elbows.

 

[Rossmeister]

Right now it's Penhaligon's Eau de Cologne. I smell my little sample vial several times a day.

God I wish it lasted longer so I could actually buy it!

 

[Slowhand]

TOBS Mr. Taylor's

 

[mark the shoeshine boy]

Would that be brooks brothers 1818? I was thinking about posting that one.

I've been thinking about the question - great thread, by the way - and I'm thinking we're not talking about our "favorite" scent, just one that comforts us. It's probably 1818 and/or PdN New York for me.

yeah that's it....

plus clubman.....

and lavendar candles...
