Great series Dan! What I would like to add to the list? There are some more on my shelf like: Iquitos by Alain Delon, Dunhill for Men and Dunhill by Alfred Dunhill (this clessic brown bottle, really underrated stuff), Havana by Aramis, Bogner Man, maybe Herrera For Men by Carolina Herrera? Definitely Yatagan by Caron deserves to be on such list as well as Chevignon For Men. Maybe 1881 Men by Cerruti? Caractere by Daniel Hechter or Lauder for Men by Estée Lauder. Francesco Smalto pour Homme, Halston Z14 + Halston 1-12. Drakkar Noir by Guy Laroche, Bel Ami by Hermès, Duc de Vervins by Houbigant, Bogart by Jacques Bogart, Krizia Uomo? Esencia pour Homme by Loewe, Montana Parfum d'Homme by Montana and Salvador Dali Pour Homme. Uff, a lot of old stuff. But maybe part 4 with some niche stuff in this genre? I have some candidates like Vierges et Toreros by ELd'O or Bull's Blood by Imaginary Authors, Hyde Park by Hugh Parsons and Elite by Floris or Kinski by Kinski (EM)? Modern interpretations of this old school vibe?

You’ve got to be kidding!! Some of your choices, I say yes, but on the ones I disagree with it’s like a way way way no - as an absolutely not - Halston Z 14 being one of them that’s high school smelling to me. I wore that in high school. In fact, now I think it stinks it smelled just got out the shower and put on deodorant. I think a majority or a lot of the ones you chose, have very sweet, sweet smells to them without a balancing musk to them. So that’s probably why I didn’t care for them. I do not like sweet, sweet, smelling at all Giorgio for the original one. I loved it in high school, now I do not like it one tiny bit. I tried to force myself to like Xerius for example, you know the one in the red bottle I can’t remember the brand, but I just could not do it. Another example is “Space” sweet, sweet, smelling reminds me of when I was in the sixth grade and got my first bottle of cologne called canoe. Very very juvenile scents. Some people may say “opening or beginners colognes.” anything like that I just cannot stand. It’s so sickeningly sweet it makes me nauseous not trying to be mean just trying to be honest.

I just look for the Oscar de la Renta on eBay and there were a bunch of them and prices reasonable. So I bought a 3oz. but was looking for the larger version bc it looks like the original one I had was 5 to 6 oz. I had the original from the around 81 and it was very popular. I had the splash version and last using in the early 90’s, there was still 85% left bc i used to use a dab or 2 and had many others I used. So when I get the one I just bought in the mail, I’ll know for sure if it’s the same size as the one I had a long time ago.

👍🏼 given! Excellent, excellent video. The fact that you put Oscar de la Renta as your first choice which is my absolute signature cologne that I wear ever since 1988, this automatically caught my interest on your reviews. Everyone that you mentioned sounds fantastic they’re just my style, I am thinking……. Because they’re all similar you stated but slightly different. I like that musky smell, not stinking no one has ever said that I smelled dated before (as in smell like a grandfather) when I wear this. Actually plain “Oscar” for men also is a favorite of mine, more modern, smelling than the pour Lui. Now I hate to admit this, but a third favorite cologne of mine, would be da Vinci, gentlemen. Now that I have been told, I smell like someone’s grandfather. But I can’t help it. I love it. My three favorites in order are: - Oscar de la renta (pour Lui) - Givenchy Gentleman - “Oscar” de la Renta- ‘Oscar’ for men So now I’m gonna try the other ones that you have mentioned - starting off with the one you call Scarface

Great choices....I couldn't stand these old-school (spicy-woody-mossy-powerhouse-with carnation) type scents because of allergies back in my youth, but I love 'em now after my discovering them at the tail end of my fragrance journey. I have Pour Lui, and Safari, but I don't have a Jazz...although I have considered picking-up a bottle for many years now. As for Tenere, I picked-up a 50ml bottle back in 2014 and love this stuff...but gotta get a 100ml spray bottle because I'm not a fan of the splash. I also have Lagerfeld Classic...but it's not a vintage, and the newer version is just okay IMO. Two you GOTTA try are Balenciaga Ho Hang Club and Maxim's Pour Homme. Cheers!!!

Some of the Van Cleef & Arpels (Tsar and Pour homme), are very manly. Tsar smells like the YSL Jazz but more dense and spicier (it has a lot of oakmoss) meanwhile Jazz is more crisp. Pour homme it have some similarities to Antaeus, but is more floral -for me is like a dried rose- and soapy with hints of castoreum and leather. Awesome stuff Both are very cheap, and the reformulations quite good. Another fragrances would be Jacomo de Jacomo (clove and tobacco something like that, but you shoud try the vintage version) and another rare stuff is the Jesus del Pozo Quasar. Smells unique, with banana leaf note listed. Freshly spayed doesn't smell quite good (kind a chemical), but in the drydown begins the magic. Sort of fruity-aquatic-fougere.
