Men's Florals

I really enjoy floral-type colognes. I know that usually one thinks of feminine scents when flowers are used as a descriptor for a fragrance, but they can definitely come in masculine flavors as well. I thought I'd see what everyone's favorite floral scents are--with apologies to the Rose thread, which may have many similarities.

I'll start--these are some of my favorites:

Trumper Ajaccio Violets
TOBS #74 Original
Lilac Vegetal

I plan on getting either Pen's Hammam Bouquet or Floris No. 89 soon as well

Good choices - both are outstanding, IMHO.

Does a lavender scent count? I'm really into C&S Oxford and Cambridge.

C & S Neroli
Florida Water

I like this one too, but it fades on me to nothingness in about two minutes...

For me (so far):

Creed Windsor
C&S #88
Profumo Acqua Santa
C&S Neroli (citrus + floral)
Pen's Hammam Bouquet
Pen's Castile
CB I Hate Perfume Tea/Rose Absolute
Eau d'Italie Paestum Rose

Florals are in no way exclusively feminine, they should be fully enjoyed by anyone and everyone!

Be sure to try these:

Manoumalia by LesNez - Tropical Floral
Carnal Flower by Frederic Malle - Unisex Floral
Black Aoud by Montale - ROSE!

I love Floris No89. I can't reccomend it highly enough.

89 is a great scent. Definitely a gentleman's scent - under the bit of citrus and florals (mostly rose) is a powdery musky sandalwoody thing happening. It stays close to the skin but lasts all day.

I currently wear Antidote by Viktor & Rolf. I highly recommend it for not only the scent but the rarity in which you'll smell like anyone else as well.

I picked up the No. 89 EdT and shaving soap today.

Wow--they smell terrific. Very fresh and powdery, very refined. Like an elaborate bouquet

Tabac of course, if you like Geranium and Carnation.

Néroli Sauvage for me.

Alt-Innsbruck is the only floral I can really pull off, but I do love it.
