Dunhill Century. I have the shower gel and the aftershave balm and I love the scent, but the EdP doesn't have the same appeal. I think I've been overdoing it...too many sprays...it isn't an EdT, after all, and it isn't a subtle fragrance if oversprayed. We'll see.

D R Harris Arlington. I've used Arlington Aftershave Milk for years and recently started using Arlington soap. The cologne is pretty mild, but I imagine using more would help. I like the fragrance a lot when dressing casually and not aiming to stand out too much.

Lalique pour Homme EDP:
This can be a polarizing scent. What do you think?
Century is a weird scent. I think it’s the cypriol. It starts nice and grapefruity, but that bitter note, like crunchy, candied sandalwood, it just won’t quit. Definitely one to spray lightly.
When I’m in the mood for it, I enjoy it best as an evening fragrance, reminds me of fresh linens and jasmine tea.
EDT: Nautica Blue Cologne.
Vintage Pierre Cardin pour Monsieur
Floris Honey Oud EDP
I can see why. It is “brash”, particularly when you first apply it. It does eventually “calm down”, but not quickly. I am still thinking about which notes I am smelling, for example cinnamon jumps out at me, yet I don’t don’t see that in the note pyramids I see online. I enjoy Lapidus PH, but I don’t love it—yet. I think I will be careful about wearing it in public, with moderate application (two spritzes, tops), and after the dry-down.
