The smell of trust?

[Alacrity59]

Ok. . . there was a thread a few days ago. . . if I may paraphrase "what is the smell of a CAD"

So . . . now I'd like to know. What do you think is the smell of a trustworthy good steward? I'd like to think I am one of these people.

Where do I go from here? I think it is fair to say you either are or are not trustworthy . . . no perfume will change a fact. I have the idea that the scent I'm after is not one that clubs one over the head . . . something subtle . . .

I've liked Grey Flannel and Green Irish Tweed but never owned a bottle. On the cheap and cheerful side I'm a big AV, and Lilac Veg fan.

What do you think? Suggestions?

I would think that a female would find more feminine smells trustworthy.............probably less threatening, but maybe not the trust you are looking for.

Asked the missus and she immediately replied Grey Flannel.

I think Trumpers Spanish Leather fits the bill. Makes you smell fresh and cleaned up, faintly soapy, and warm.

 

[Z3ke]

I second Grey Flannel.

Anything that doesn't smell too hip, trendy or slick. I think more "classic" scents. By this I mean tried and true scents that don't show you have anything to prove. Something that smells pretty clean, isn't obnoxious with any sharp notes and makes people feel comfortable. I think there are many that fit this description.

The fact that you like the Veg immediately shows that you are wholly untrustworthy. As such, I cannot suggest that you pick up English Fern

Agreed.

I think what you are looking for is Czech and Speake No. 88.

No way. 88 is the smell of a man who might be trusted, but... let's just say the women that I've talked to really REALLY like it

DR Harris "HIS" cologne... one of the warmest smells I've ever worn.

 

[Augustiner]

Asked the missus and she immediately replied Grey Flannel.

I can see why. This scent is nothing flashy and just smells clean and comfortable.

To me it just smells like a nice soap and makes you smell like you just got out of the shower. They should rename it something like "Shower Fresh" or "Shower Clean." That's got a ring...Shower Cleene by Geoffrey Beene

Since I'm wearing Blenheim Bouquet today and trust myself, I've got to say Blenheim Bouquet smells like trust.

Awwwww . . . the veg untrustworthy? You are going to hurt my feelings.

On the other hand English Fern sounds promising.

Hmmm. I'd be trusted by everybody but my wife maybe.

I think any of the Brooks Brothers scents would fit the bill.

 

[Crawford Montizano]

Gentleman's Best Signature. Good for any occasion. IMHO

Nice call. It's well liked by everyone I've had smell it, and it's not overpowering in the least. It's a great scent (and inexpensive to boot )

If you could find out what Bernard Madoff used, try that. He pulled off the trustworthy good steward thing for many years.
