For formal occasions my go to is Bleu de Chanel but in the Parfum concentration. I have the EDP too but the Parfum, I feel, is just so classy.

And You can add the UK site to that list. Yes, it’s no longer 75ml but I’m sure it’s been confirmed to be the exact same batch/formulation

Bottega Veneta too is a good formal wear perfume I feel. It's classy and yet smells light and fresh enough that you can also wear it to office or as a daily and not smell too overpowering.

Great choices. We definitely share some similar taste in brands/selections. I love Amouage - Jubilation Man for a few occasions now that I think about it. Bois du Portugal by Creed is another scent I enjoy for really upscale events for that old-school vibe. From Chanel, the original Allure Homme works for me nicely. If I had to pick just one for any and all formal occasions, though...it has to be Safari Extreme by Abdul Samad Al Qurashi. It's so beautiful and complex...crushes everything else for me right now.

My favorite formal fragrance is Jubilation XXV in Spring, Summer, and Early Fall, but I like Overture Man in the Winter and Late Fall. Amouage Interlude Black Iris is a fragrance BOMB!!! Way too aggressive for me. However, Amouage Overture is somewhat similar but toned down considerably. Amouage Jubilation XXV also has the same resins and incense as the other two but is the lightest of them all. Jubilation XXV opens with blackberry and honey and this very slight sweetness provides a counter balance to the resins and incense. It is very luxurious. Overture Man provides a perfect balance between something like Jubilation XXV and Interlude Black Iris. People will smell you wearing Jubilation XXV, but it isn't too aggressive. Overture Man is aggressive and they will definitely smell you, but in a good way. Interlude Black Iris Man and the original Interlude Man are absolute beasts that will get a WTF have you been smoking reaction.

I have never smelled Dior Homme Parfum, but I was told that Futura La Homme EDP by Armaf is a dupe! And it is very cheap, and I bought it! I live in Ohio(USA)and it is almost impossible to find Dior Homme Parfum!

Terre d'Hermes line... I keep thinking that I'm alone with the opinion, that this is downright a bad DNA. Orange/Earth mix makes anyone smell age 70+. Once in a while, I go to my samples and try it out, because I think there must be something wrong with my nose, since everyone seems to love it. But no, it is still as bad as always.

you probably smell the harsh opening and think: "ohh f*ck this is definitely a bad fragnance, let's f*cking throw it away" Trust me the drydown smells heaven, give the fragnance a chance
