I am looking for a nice spicy lavender scent, i used to use a lotion that had a great masculine lavender scent and I really liked it. I think it could work as a winter scent too. Just looking for a good frag.
winter lavender
- Thread starter AKady
- Start date
perhaps Creed Royal Scottish Lavender
ps - you can use basenotes directory to find specific scents
Burrbery London comes to mind.
Zino Davidoff is one of the best lavender for the price
Serge Lutens Gris Clair.
The previous three are somewhat sweet. The following are not:
English Fern, Lavandula and Blenheim Bouquet by Penhaligons
C&S Frankincense and Myrrh and Oxford and Cambridge (though this one is more summery) by C&S
Caron pour Homme works all year round.

After reading up on that, it sounds very promising, but also very much out of my price range sadly. Also would it be too formal for daily wear, I am a college student.
it is pretty pricey.
im a student too, no such thing as too formal. people appreciate smelling something thats not axe/lynx. you would be surprised about the compliments a good cologne will get you

SCS New Spice, Bay rum w/twist, Bond no.9 little italy, Bois Sushi Imperial, Raquets, St.james, endymion. Iam still unsure how much to wear too.
hehe. the man who says creed is to formal has endymion and st james 
for how much to wear - it really depends on the individual scents.
just play around with them to see how much you need to wear

Santa Maria Novell Lavender is nice. Yardleys English Lavender is OK too, but maybe more a summer scent.
