Silver Mountain Water, Virgin Island Water and Millesime Imperial are my favorites out of the Creed lineup. I liked what I smelled of boise du portugal I believe it was as well.

One of my favorites is Bond no. 9 success is a job in NY, but I think they discontinued that.

I fukkin love Virgin Island water
and copped Silver mountain water off GP.
Is it me or does Silver mountain water smell
like fukkin Ink!!

That's how I got into niche and Indy Fragrance houses breh. I don't want to smell like the next cat :scust:

I don't own that many designer scents even though I'm a fan of many of them. I like Dior Sauvage for instance because it's a nice, clean, mass appealing, versatile scent. But it's one of the most popular fragrances along with Bleu de Chanel so I will never purchase it. :francis:

If you can't afford Aventus by Creed... try Pineapple Vintage Intense...if you want to go real cheap for Aventus clone try Insurrection Pure II. Pineapple Vintage Intense has given me some real nice compliments.

People also sleep on Green Irish Tweed by Creed it's just as good if not better than Aventus. It's also way cheaper to buy on discount sites. Don't buy into the hype that Cool Water is the same as Green Irish Tweed...they are different to me and GIT is much more natural and beast mode.

Invictus Aqua which is discontinued is another beast that served me well this summer. I only had a 5ml sample but it was more than enough to let me know it's bottle worthy.

Other favorites....

Bleu De Chanel
Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme
Play Intense
Mont Blanc Individuel
Versace Eau Frachie
Dolce & Gabanna The One

Invictus Aqua (2016, not the new one) was a clone of an Arabian perfume called "Hawas" by Rasasi. Hawas is much more potent and way cheaper. Look it up breh.

I was hooked for about 4 years. Copped about 60-65 bottles in that time frame, and spent about $2,500. Now I just pick cheap stuff up at TJ Maxx or Burlington's once in a while. Haven't had a major purchase in over a year.

Think it can work for summer nights or best to hold off til winter?

You can wear it all year breh, it's one of those solid, versatile scents that can be worn in all seasons and for different occasions (casual, formal etc). Try it before you buy it.

Go to a department store and test it, and then if you like it buy it online for much cheaper.

I've always loved colognes, but I've been going a bit overboard lately. I like discovering new scents, but I'm not trying to become a collector :francis:


Eventually I want to end up with 10-15 good, high end fragrances and sell everything else off. Might buy the odd sample set or decant here and there, but purchasing new frags every month is unnecessary and wasteful.

From now on, if I'm not in love with I'm selling it :manny:

I have way too many fragrances that I just kinda like.. :martin:
