Same for me with Stirling executive man, wasnt sure if I like it or not at first and more I use it the more I like it. Especially the matching balm ( smells the same but more subtle )
Tabac
Cella, the first few times smelled like just straight almonds (not my favorite smell but not a huge fan either), but it lathered nicely.
After a month went back to it and Dr. Pepper was the smell I got from it and now look forward to using it.

Clubman Special Reserve. The leather and tobacco were just too much for me at first. Then I applied it, waited a few minutes and rinsed my face. Now I just splash it on. I wonder if I would like Tabac - have still not smelled it.

+1 to this. Rhapsody was actually the same way for me too, these are the first two that came to mind.
Funny story. I had a tiny sample bottle of Special Reserve in my desk at work. It had a tiny measure of liquid left in it. I opened the drawer it resides in and spied it the other day. In the next second my eye dropped to a small container of hand sanitizer on my desk. Synapses fired and I now have a bottle of Special Reserve scented hand sanitizer.
And to your point SR had to grow on me as well. It is a very potent scent.
The scent of the Proraso green soap. I didn't hate it initially, but I didn't love it either. But now it just reminds me of a good shave.
Funny how that works out ain't it?
Yet another I'm afraid to try because I'd have yet another love affair with a scent.
B&M's Sunny Day. Slowly growing. Very slowly. The speed of moss growing, slowly. With a similar scent (as moss), though not as nice. Not nearly.
Black Ship Grooming Captain Scurvy. When I first got it I thought it was okay. Over time, I've come to really like it. Sandalwood and Vanilla with just a touch of lime.
PannaCrema San Francesco. It was on sale, took a flyer on it and was all "meh" about it. Almost tossed it...wasnt' even keen on using it as a bath soap. Thought it was too sweet smelling. But it's grown on me and it's going to be in the winter/cool day tallow part of the rotation.
When I first opened a stick of Palmolive, I disliked the scent. Now, I really enjoy it. Great performance to boot!
Definitely Arko
Stirling Coniferous. At first is smelled to me like a wet, burnt log from the fire covered in sopping wet, rotting pine needles. That picture actually came into my mind when I first smelled it. Now, it's my favorite piney scent. Go figure.
Tabac... I hope.
First try with Tabac: nope! Second try, just to be sure: maybe! I don't think I'll toss it yet.
A few weeks ago I tried teh Stirling Iced Pineapple soap and aftershave splash. I loved the menthol from the get go, but the scent was too sweet for me. It has grown on me over the past few weeks
