Wow, another vote for Fierce as their #1 pick. I'll have to try to track some down and give it a spin. I'm definitely curious now. Thanks for the tip on that one.

There is something to be said for not smelling exactly like everyone else. I have Tabac and 4711 on my shelf which are cheap and common in Europe but not typically available in most stores here. You've found Fierce which sounds a good deal more pricey, but I imagine is in stores here. So it goes...

Have any of you guys tried Aramis by Aramis, it smells amazing and huge range. It can be worn by older or younger men. Aramis acts like a pheromone on nits own even though its a fragrance. you get a lot of respect from men and women love the smell. First hand experience. Its a very Alpha musky type scent.

Apparently it's tougher to track down here than I thought. Woman at the fragrance counter tonight said someone else had just asked about it as well, but that it's only available at the A&F store's themselves. I checked and there's a lot on eBay, but I like to sample first. It'll be March before I'm near an A&F store.

I think way back in the day I tried this. Kind of a heavy 1980's masculine feel? I'd need to try it again it's been so long.

Hey Steel,

The ebay ones are probably fakes/knock offs.. Its possible that there are some originals there, but its quite a risk. And ive heard reports of fake ones not smelling nearly as nice.. If you really want it, you should buy a "sure original" at an A&F store or order it through their website.

I don't know where you live, but if its really hard for you to get to an A&F store, i could fill a 5ml tester with some fierce and sent it to ya in the post. (Im from Europe) That way you can order it online trough their store if you like it and you will at least know what youre buying before you do so.

Pm me if needed. If your fast i might be able to make it happen before going on holiday (leaving tomorrow for 15 days)

Hey!
Wow, appreciate the offer! If my March trip falls through I may want to see if I can follow up with you on that. In the meantime, I've got enough scents to keep me occupied for another month or two. Been sampling a new one this week and tried another two at the dept store tonight where I was looking for Fierce (re-tried A*men once more and Issey Miyake's L'eau d'Issey on the other wrist). I must look a little odd walking through the mall, periodically sniffing my own wrists...

Yeah, eBay is risky for scents. Fragrances are one of the products that people love to counterfeit. I saw that I can order in Canada direct from A&F, so that's a plus.

Enjoy your holidays and be nice to the Euro-babes!

Hugo by Hugo Boss. Try a sample at Sephora. Nobody seems to wear it, and it is a 10/10 on my scale, and I would say 1 million is a 7-8 for me. It also doesn't hit the wallet as hard. Ladies always ask me what I am wearing, and it also seems to help get my mones out there too. And 1-2 sprays last about 7-9 hrs, so it's great as a cover scent.
