The only issue with JPG is that sooo many people wear it. I went to a club last year for New Years and it was like the club was spraying it everywhere.
Another fragrance I'd recommend is :
Juicy Couture for Men.
It is discontinued but here is the review. (Ebay has them for peanuts)

I had this when it first came out, nobody else had it. Women come when they smell this.
You're right Mike, Coolwater is amazing and the price for it these days truly great. Creed have some "nice" fragrances but they are a brand that to me live off its name and people who want to seem like they are super "rich" often just reach out to Creed without looking further into other very good scents.

Regarding tobacco, I remembered that Creed Tabarome does have a good tabacco scent. Shame about the price though, at times I feel Creed is way too overpriced.
The perfume version of Terre (Hermes) is exquisite. This fragrance is just out of this world, well done and good choice
I have tried TF Tobacco Vanille but it's probably more vanilla and hardly any tobacco for me personally. I will send you a link to a person on ebay who sells genuine samples of these for better prices of course.
Before I start, just like we enjoy watches and appreciate them like no other, the same appreciation can be transferred to other areas such as fragrances. I happen to love fragrances and this has nothing to do with lack of cleanliness. I mean if you can afford $30 onwards frags, surely you can buy soap also.
Now on to my humble collection
From left to right starting from the top.
Lanvin Sport : Great everyday fragrance. Cheap to get on Ebay. Has a darker citrus vibe but lasts a long time and is not to harsh on the nose.
Guerlain L'Instant: This is a sexy fragrance that has cocoa and citrus as its top notes. It is a romantic scent that can be worn in the evenings or for dates.
Tom Ford Noir de Noir: This is one of high end watches of the fragrance world. It is a dark rose in the midst of dark woody oudh. This is a sexy scent that can only be worn by a few and only for special occasions. Definitely a suit is needed. You need balls to wear this and women absolutely adore this on men.
Tom Ford Tuscan Leather : I managed to get three samples of this special fragrance. 12ML all together. This is a strong leathery scent that dries down more and more softer with a bit of fruits popping out. It is very special and should be worn for special occasions again.
DSquared Potion : Nice fragrance, smells like burnt vanilla with a bit of cinnamon and incense. Great stuff coming from these designers.
Dsquared Silver Wind Wood : Winter fragrance. Incense and sweet.
Dsquared Rocky Mountain Wood : Very very very woody with a bit of pepper.
CK Be : Affordable cologne for a good fresh splash.
Cartier Roadster Sport : Sporty fragrance of course, citrusy with a hint of slight spice
Hermes Eau De Terre : The gods wear this.
Acqua Di Parma Mirto : Stunning spring/summer fragrance. Fruity and light
Al-Rehab Silver : This is basically Creed Silver Mountain Water for a fraction of a fraction of the price.
Holy Smokes! What a stunning and valuable collection there! Wear in good health, oh and let me know if you get bored of the Exp II , I've been wanting one for ages now
Thanks and I agree that this is a huge improvements from the reps before. I think your comments were all correct about this piece, but it looks stunning!
Allow me to say:
"Holy WOW!"
Stunning classic. When so much effort is put together and by amazing legendary members, a Franken like this becomes better than owning a Gen at times. And I mean that
haha yeah, he could have halfed the video in time by just throwing the movement against his desk and collecting the parts back on that spot. hope our rep makers take more care?
Wow, great observations here.
It is true, many gens have flaws too. Panerai, IWC, Rolex are brands where I have seen small issues with placement of parts, lume, non-precise finishes etc.
We just get too paranoid about our reps.
