Ditto on the Diesel Plus Plus!
Have used it ever since it came out. Smelled it in Harrods on a rare trip to London 13ish years ago. Splashed out what little money I had on it in the hope of impressing a girl who had agreed to a date the following weekend. I didn't get the girl but I've always had a bottle of the stuff, mainly cos SWMBO likes it.
Dolce & Gabbana Pour Homme is a fragrance I usually use for work.
Oh, and a recent present from SWMBO...

Nice, nice. How's the Spanish Leather, Pigcat? Does the scent stick around, or is it more of splash and go thing?
I've been a little dissatisfied with my choices in colognes since the warmer weather has been upon us. I just seem to prefer heavier scents in general. I think next year i'll fare a little better, but currently i'm using:
Nice and certainly cheap if you look in the right places, but a little bit too floral/rose-y for me. Quite a lot going on and a little muddled, too.
Again, nice. A bit too quiet for my tastes, though.
A classic and very nice. I've worn this on and off for a while now and it's probably my favourite vetiver, but I feel I can do better.
I've spent so much "time" (money) on fragrances over the past couple of years that i'm hoping by next year i'll actually be happy with what i'm using. Finally got my Autumn/Winter rotation sorted, so the hard work is kind of done.

my 'Holy Grail' search began after getting in to this grooming lark more seriously
as a young chap i went through the usual suspects
Kouros
Escape
Eternity
Polo Sport - my favourite
Joop
etc
problem was everyone else wore them as well and i wanted to stand out from the crowd.
so after some ofalctory detective work i've settled on T&H Grafton and C&E Sienna for now

Pretty good. I am hopeless at describing scents but it seems to have quite low notes that stay nice and smelly most of the day. I also have the Extract of Limes which I think is the splash (bottle doesn't say) and being citrussy does not hang around too long. Very refreshing on your face though!
