how can you enjoy going around smelling like a cinnamon bun?

Oh yeah I was just being facetious. Well, maybe not. It's, in the fragrance world, known as a "gourmand" scent. It has a dessert like vibe, because the notes used in it are edible. In this one, there's vanilla, caramel, honey, grilled sesame seeds, cinnamon, and rum (amongst other things), which all together create a kind of cinnamon bun vibe. Some say Apple Pie, but there is no apple. So I stick with believing it has more of a Cinnabon thing going on. It smells delicious!

yeah but that Cinnabon smell needs to stay in the mall where it belongs not lingering around all day. I'd never wear something that smelled like that

I just couldn't

I do it. I do it happily. I wear it and I smile happily joyful. I would so sooner wear something that smelled edible than any best selling men's fragrance. Good lord. Boring, boring, boring. They all smell like fresh chemical nothingness.

wow

idk man

edible scents are horrible imo.

I'm more of the citrus scented type and there are plenty of men's fragrances with some sort of citrus type smell.

Oh citrus scents are great! If you like orange, THE most realistic orange note I've ever smelled is in Guerlain's Mandarine Basilic. It's NOT sweetened at all. It's tart and perfect.

If you like Grapefruit then check out Hermes Eau de Pamplemousse Rose, or you can also check out their take on green mango which is their amazing fragrance Un Jardin sur Le Nil. I think Hermes is pretty much the perfect house for me. They're accessible, most are quite affordable, and Jean Claude Ellena is their in house perfumer. He's quite a minimalist, and I love that.

Oh, and while you're at it, Terre d'Hermes is their namesake men's fragrance and it's unbelievable. Voyage d'Hermes is somewhat similar, but MUCH brighter and more unisex.

marlboro menthol 100's and a tiny lighter.
i really shouldn't have started smoking again, but i got a craving and had $6 burning a hole in my pocket... so i went to the gas station across the street at lunch and bought a pack.

Thanks for the suggestions, I will write them down and get them sometime in the near future. I'm running out of D&G. Do you have any suggestions that are similar to D&G? something pretty light scented.

One of these bad boys, except it's three floors instead of two and totally rehabbed, with a completely new interior:

It's our first house, so we're both pretty excited.
