Something The Most Interesting Man in the World would wear or maybe Chuck Norris. Maybe Special Reserve would wear Chuck Norris. In any case I just purchased my first bottle and I know it's not going to be my last. I love the scent. Anyone know of any colognes or EDT's similar in scent?
Clubman Special Reserve smells like.

To my sniffer it's pretty unique, but possibly Tabac.
Cannot think of anything, to me it is a mix of leather and cured tobacco leaf.
I use Tabac and Alt Innsbruck in my regular rotation, but as much as these two are "tobacco" fragrances they are very different compared to the Special Reserve; at least to my nose.

Smoky leather to me. One of my favorites. Pairs well with the old Aramis cologne. I think they both have a lot of similarities. Both can be overwhelming if you go nuts.

I agree.

Where have you been, Joe DiMaggio?
I see what you did there.
If I could have remembered the subsequent lines they would have been there too!
My all-time favorite description is : "An old baseball mitt boiled in scotch"
I don't know what the stuff smells like, but it is unique and addictive! My favorite description said the top note smelled "exactly like the incense they burn at Catholic Mass."
I agree that it's quite similar, but Special Reserve has a very complex aroma and, within the space of 45 minutes, the smell changes and a cumin-like fragrance takes over.
Like all the Pinaud aftershave/colognes I've tried, the fragrance fades fairly quickly -- a wonderful excuse to re-apply, for a little aroma therapy.
If you want a scent that's different from every other guy, this is a serious contender.

Like something an old lady would wear.
It's what I would wear in this place. Double-breasted suit, fedora, Walther in my pocket, drinking cognac with some shady characters.
Unfortunately, no one can tell you about Special Reserve.
You must experience it for yourself.

The closest IMHO would be a mix of Tabac and the old style English Leather.
Ahem, do you mean 'where have you gone Joe DiMaggio'?... C'mon now
A nation turns its lonely eyes to you.
and to finish it off......
What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson
