For a channel this posh, we love it that he goes to his roots and includes his grandfather's Old Spice. Not being snob is a class of its own.
Absolutely agree with this.
Gentlemen: I am sixty five and have been using Guerlain Vetiver for forty-five years. Over the years, I have been stopped on the streets by both men and women asking me "what scent are you wearing?" It is absolutely sublime in my estimation. So glad it was included in the list.
Thanks for the recommendation Sir
I will try it.
Vetiver of gurlien is mind blowing I love it ❤❤❤❤
Aramis is a classic
I also love Guerlain Vetiver...and I used to wear it back in the day so to speak, and you are so right about it being a truly one off a kind scent. I was happy to see it on this list too.
I agree about Aramis...kind of surprised it was not mentioned@@Paul-fq9pj
I was very happy to see Old Spice included. I always figured I just had hopelessly bad taste for liking it, so nice to see someone who knows what he's talking about liking it too. The smell of it is simply interwoven into my 1970s and 80s childhood.
My grandfather also wore Old Spice, and I have very distinct and fond memories of going on errands together, or having breakfast at my grandparent's house. Nice bonus choice!
Thanks, John! Glad you appreciated it.
Same with my grand father (mothers father) and my father. I'm in my 50's now and i'm going to buy it just for the memories.
Thank you for starting with my favorite, Eau Sauvage, started wearing it at 18 and now at 40 still my favorite. Also glad to see Polo Green and Green Irish Tweed on the list as well. Great channel.
Eau Savauge EDT is my favorite of all time, perfect 10/10, great for everyday and also for going out. It is still a very modern and charismatic scent. I also like ADP Colonia for the summer. Old spice is always a great option in the winter months. Great review, I love the classics and wish they would become more popular again. I just ordered samples of Floris No. 89 and Eight and Bob, thank you for the suggestions!
Even through reformulations, it smells absolutely fantastic. The EDT is a masterpiece of perfumery and is both timeless and classical at the same time and works year round. I was a bit scared to try this because I really dislike the chemical mess called Dior Sauvage but this fragrance shares zero in common with that one.
I am a big fan of Azzaro Pour Homme. I have a bottle my father gave me in the late 80's and I never grew out of loving it as it got older. I acquired a couple more bottles over the years and continue to go back to it for various occasions. It is my most personally nostalgic fragrance because of my dad. It isn't for everyone but it would be in my top ten classic fragrance favorites. Thanks for the video. I have many of the ten you chose. You have wonderful taste in fragrances. Great video...thanks again!
Brian coming out of left field with the Old Spice..Love it! Reminds me of my dad and the lessons about grooming and style. Simply classic!!👍
This was one of the best reviews of classic mens fragrances I've seen in a long time. All of the iconic scents were included as well as the surprise inclusion of Old Spice which my father wore in the 70's. I myself have worn Green Irish Tweed and I've worn Acqua di Parma for about ten years now. For a second I thought you would include Grey Flannel or Halston but no need really for those.
Feels like I'm watching RUclips in Smell-O-Vision with your impeccable descriptions!! Love the "CLASSIC" theme. Great video as always!
Many thanks, Troy. always great to see you in the comments.
I was pleasantly surprised by this video. I'd expected the same old fragrances that have been reviewed by other channels, but you offered a unique list of classic fragrances and some that I'm excited to try!
Sweet! What were some that you were expecting but didn't see?
Agree... this gentleman presents this video very details perfectly
Definitely love the inclusion of Old Spice, like everyone's grandfather, mine also wore it. Unfortunately he passed away about a year and a half ago and more recently my grandmother must have been going through his things, so I inherited a couple of his bottles for myself!
A great way to remember him. Thanks for the comment, Kevil. Best wishes.
Sorry to hear about your grandfather. My condolences for you and your grandmother. My dad used Old Spice too. He passed away last year. Many people say it's just old-fashioned and bland but I LOVE the smell of Old Spice. It’s really amazing!
Very sorry to hear about your grandfather 😔
At the same time totally agree with Brian about Old spice.
Im sorry for your lose. God bless you and your family
@@ultimatetrex1999 Thank you, same to your and yours.
I smiled so much when you featured Dior's Eau Sauvage first. Great choice!
Many thanks!
To be honest, this one smells to me of BO, but roughly half of the men's fragrances I've tried seem to have that funky smell. But I'm a woman and I do wear several men's fragrances
Great and really appreciated list. A few additions to it based on my personal taste: Mouchoir de Monsieur of Guerlain (1904, reintroduced in 1980), Azzaro pour Homme of Azzaro (1978), Antaeus of Chanel (1981), Santos of Cartier (1981), Kouros of Yves Saint Laurent (1981), Fahrenheit of Christian Dior (1988), Drakkar Noir of Guy Laroche (1982) and Lapidus pour Homme of Ted Lapidus (1987).
Thanks so much for those additions!
Hermes Equipage is another classic scent I love. I used to wear it in the 70's & 80's and so is CD Eau Savage. Recently I felt a little nostalgic & bought myself an Aramis, which I wore for my job interviews in the 80's. I agree with you when you said these classic fragrances bring back old memories. Another fragrance I bought which I used to wear is Caron Yatagan. I also own some new fragrances like Blue De Chanel, Prada L'Homme, YSL Lanuit de L'homme, CD Sauvage, Givenchy Gentlemen, etc., but none of them brings back good old memories like the old classic ones.
DUDE!!! Thank you for suggesting Knize 1O...OMG Fantastic!
Impeccable presentation. Thank you! Delighted that you included Old Spice. It brings back fond memories for lots of us.
Many thanks! Had to throw it in!
My grandfather also wore Old Spice, and I continue wearing it today, to honor him. Eau Sauvage has been my go to "formal" fragrance, for 50 years.
First time viewer, and truly enjoyed your presentation! Subscribed also. These are my favorites from across my life.

Thank you for your style-filled video. The black and white photo of the Thin man, your black

Thank you for bringing to light these often forgotten fragrances. Good job!!
You're welcome! Thanks for the comment!
Dear Mr. Brian Sacawa,
I've always wanted to write to you to congratulate you for your excellent work in your RUclips Channel. You embody the style and the elegance bouth classic -my prefer- and more actually.
Speak correctly and the context are always wonderfully well care.
Thanx so much por this review, and for all the videos that your offer us periodically.
Its a big pleasure to see you, to listen to you and please, don't leave this channel, almost you need to play music, the other most important thing in the world. HEALTH & LUCK-
King Regards from Spain.
Thanks so much, Miguel. Really appreciate you taking the time to say hello and for your support.
My first step to wearing a professional scent was my introduction to Eau Sauvage, a great classic, fresh yet inoffensive. Now that I've seen your video report, I am going to treat myself to a bottle for old time's sake! Apparently, it's making something of a comeback.
Great video. Thanks for the showcasing of such timeless classics.
Absolutely loved the selection and your perspectives. I have a few and will explore others here. Thank you.
Nice!!! Really enjoyed your list!! Not a typical list that I see from most YT fragrance reviewers. There weren't any Chanel colognes on your list. Most of your choices, I've never heard of. Love the connection to elegantly dressed men. Could have specified cool/cold, hot/warm seasons of the year to wear fragrance with each choice. I did own Polo green and Eau Savage in the 80's. Enjoyed your list. Thanks!
Many thanks, Ralph. Glad you enjoyed.
I really like the list! I have Vetiver, Knize 10 and Eau Sauvage in my collection and rate them all very highly. My other recommendations would be Mouchoir de Monsieur, Habit Rouge (both Guerlain), Houbigant Fougere Royale and Nicolaï New York Intense
Thanks for the additions, Niels! Appreciate the comment.
Wonderful, a mate traveled to London in 1979 and returned back to Sydney with Eau Sauvage as a gift. I was 19. Used it ever since. I have a couple of others but E S is so subtle, always hits the spot.
I will seek and try your recommendations. Thanks
Great video! I'm happy to report I own and use 6 of the 10 and will be adding the other 4 to my collection over time. Thank you.
Floris is a fantastic house. Nice to see you give a mention of one of their classics. I think it's perfect for the sartorial image.
Totally agree. Thanks for the comment.
The new fragrance from Floris, called Wilde, is destined to be a classic in my opinion. 👌🏻
Very well thought out list, thanks for helping us navigate the world of men’s classic scents, my every day scent is acqua di Parma colonial and my special occasion choice is Floris #89.
Very nice! Great choice, John.
89 opens up pretty lovely. What do you think about the drydrown down though? I mainly smell balsamic powder and the citrus and florals sadly seem to disappear
I love that you’ve added Old Spice. It brings back the nostalgia of old time barber shops and men from the greatest generation.
EXCELLENT REVIEW. Well done, sir!
Being a classic fragrance aficionado myself, I have to say that this is by far the most carefully curated list of classic scents put together by any menswear youtuber. Thanks for introducing me to the JFK-Perfume, it is not well known here in europe. Kudos for including Knize Ten (one of my 10/10 fragrances for sure) and for pronouncing it correctly as well - many americans struggle with the counterintuitive czech pronunciation. ;)
About the lack of "real" leather in Knize: Leather scents couldn't be synthesized until fairly recently. Thus, in the days of old, perfumers tried to evoke more of an "idea" of leather or of an environment that would feature leather goods (think gentleman's club furniture). What Knize calls "leather" in the base notes used to be an accord dominated by birch tar, for example.
Superb video, greetings from Germany!
Many thanks for that comment. And for your affirmation that I pronounced Knize properly. Someone else in the comments has taken issue with it and called me rather unsophisticated. Great history of the "leather" in Knize Ten as well. I really appreciate that explanation.
14:03 “If your grandfather hadn't worn it, you wouldn't exist.”
Haha. Cheers.
If your grandfather used to wear it, you shouldn't ☺.
@@zsb707 I'm 65. My 27-year-old daughter compliments me when I wear Old Spice. I have $300 dollar bottles of cologne by Creed and others, but when my daughter loves Old Spice, I'll put on Old Spice any day!
@@zsb707I think that that's exactly why you should wear it.
One Tonne Noodles what about Terre, the Hermes one?
That should be on a list of classics
I absolutely love your choices!! Please do & release more reviews on fragrances!
Your channel is always the classiest! Love it!
I love "Eau Savage". My go-to summer fragrance for many years. My top go-to since the 1980s for the colder months? "Jicky" by Guerlain. Essential and iconic. Folks either love or hate it.
That reverso looks amazing!
Many thanks, Chris!
i am not sure if anyone is going to look at my comment, but i did a search as my 17 year old son requested cologne for christmas. So i was doing some research and found this episode, which is so well done. What an education. I have encouraged my son to follow you, as he will be going off to college next year and needs to develop his own style. It might be great to do something for young men in that age group. Off to university and a good part of the past couple of years doing remote school, so never out of sweatpants! They really need help! Thank you so much!
I love your list, and your careful analysis of the colognes on it. Timeless sophistication and elegance is the common thread, so I was delighted that several feature in my own grooming regime 👌🏻
Old Spice is still in my line up. Reminds me of my father, a true classic. Many thanks.
i really commend you not sticking with simply the trendiest, most expensive colognes. you've actually covered the gamut here - from $7.99 to $500 - and you're right, Old Spice is a classic among classics and even today, i'm surprised at how women react so positively to Old Spice. thanks again!
Great review. I like the way the inexpensive and expensive are critiqued the same, seldom done. Keep going.
Great selection so well documented. Merci !
Great list. All respect for including Old Spice, especially for all the reasons you mentioned. That just raises your credibility in my book.
I like Aramis it always reminds me of my father and it smells really good to me
Thanks to your advice, I purchased some CREED Green Irish Tweed. I love the Scent and the Compliments are rolling in! I've Saved your Video, so I can expand my Collection. I've had RALPH LAUREN Polo, for years and that's why I trusted your Opinion. Great Job, keep up the good work. Cheers!
Guerlain Vetiver is my signature. Absolutely LOVE it!
This is definitely a time that I wish we had smellovision technology. The old spice definitely pushes the nostalgia button, as it reminds me of my dad. I used to think the white bottle was milk. 😁
Cheers 🥂
Many thanks, as always, for chiming in, Farshid!
Eau savage so refreshing, the lemon scent it’s a smell that will never date.
You now what sucks? I had sauvage and it sucked for me. Smelled it on two people a d it smelled completely different, and wonderful. Must be a curse for me
@@BigSarnt I wore it last night and people loved it on me. They prefer Dior Sauvage over Eau Sauvage though.
Always been my favorite
Thanks for a truly good video. I learned a lot even though I already know a lot about fragrance. And I love the relaxing ambience.
Thx so much dear Brian for that fantastic review. I love Guerlain Vetiver, and the rest of the family too. I have also the AdP C. in my collection, it's also a very nice classic scent, despite it really doesn't last so long, as you mentionned already. You do a great job Brian, keep going!
Old Spice Classic is only an approximation of what our grandfathers used daily. The formula was changed drastically to protect the new plastic bottle. Apparently, in Europe and India "Old Spice Original" is still available in glass bottles. I plan to get some on this trip.
Awesome.
Knize Ten is magnificent. A smooth, show-stopper. It only seems appropriate for colder weather to me. Also, I think the leather note referred to is actually castoreum, a material used to create leather notes, but here I feel it's character shines through more distinctively in it's smoky, dried fruit qualities.
own it, love it.
Great job sir. Very in depth review of these classics. Ignore some few rude comments,they're just ignorant, everyone is entitled to thier opinion esp behind some cheap phones. Great job sir!
I love that you included Old Spice! It truly is a great one...distinctive.
Hi, nice video as always, and really nice JLC !
Would you consider making video on the Reverso ? I'm seriously considering getting one for my 2nd (and last) graduation and since I really connect with your aesthetic I would really love to see it.
I long hesitated with a Rolex datejust but the JLC fit my personal style a lot more.
I probably will at some point. It's an awesome watch. Classic but not as ubiquitous as, say, a Tank.
Anyone who has the guts to recommend Old Spice in the same flourish as Floris, has my respect - consider me subscribed :)
Nice! Glad to have you!
Ditto!
Love your videos! Full of details and true knowledge. 🎩❤️
I would have also added Aramis in there , but the modern man would move onto new frags as I have learnt, I was caught up in a time warp only using frags back in the 70s & 80s only these passed few years I’ve been using modern frags & my word are they great. The frags you mentioned I think are way out of date & have had their time. I must admit your advice means so much to us, keep it up my man 👍
Young man, Old Spice my father's aftershave wonderful memories.
I own every fragrance in this vid. except the Penhaligon's Blenheim bouquet. Greate list, I would definitely
add to this list "Aramis - Aramis" & "Rive Gauche pour Homme by Yves Saint Laurent". (Rive Gauche sadly discontinued again.) + Rougere Royale - Houbigant
Thanks for the additions!!
"British Sterling" had 1960s tv commercials of a colonial lass with silver tray and cavalier. Have you tried it?
I enjoyed this very much ! You did a great presentation 💋My ex used to wear Polo so much that I swear I could smell it in his toothbrush...ha !
I used to wear sometimes in the late 60's ,early 70's Eau Savuage during the summer... being a cologne addict then and still , didn't care it was a guy's cologne.
I'm so in the mood to buy it again and will !
My Dad with his Old Spice brings back wonderful memories of a great Dad . He was so good about me getting the same Christmas present every year as a kid with a tie as well as shirt or sweater.. Hahaha ! He had quite a collection.
Old Spice , a great scent for a great man ...💚
Thanks for your great list of these classics! Im absolutely going to try some of your suggestions! My favourite is Phileas grom Nina Ricci, which unfortunately has been discontinued: a real shame! Keep up the good work! And love your Reverso!
Hey, I once worked for Knize in Vienna and I love the "Ten" for more than 25 Years now. Out of all the pronunciation-varieties I've ever heard, yours comes closest to how a guy from Vienna would say it. Still: the Z is a very soft sh-sound. Like the one you use in "sauvage" Plus: the K and the N are closer, like one sound. so the result would be a long ee like in "knee" but the K here isn't silent. not k-a-nee... but hard KNeeeesha with a rather short end-syllable, like some people in english-speaking-countries would pronounce the end-syllable of "porsche"...
YSL Pour Homme Haute Concentration......and all of the vintage stuff of Trussardi
Thanks for the additions!
Thanks for including old spice one of my favourites I have always enjoyed 👍🏻
Both the high-quality thumbnail and the professionalism displayed in the video made me a subscriber right away. This is the standard to which I aspire for my own travel channel. I am now compelled to try Knize 10.
Wow, thanks so much for the kind words. Thanks for subbing and good luck with your channel!
Don't, let me repeat that, DON'T try Knize 10! I tried a sample and it smells like violets soaked in urine. Very unpleasant.
I like this list it's not the typical; Sauvage EDP, Bleu De Chanel, Aventus, blah blah blah list. Nice!!
Many thanks, Damon. Appreciate the comment.
Although hyped to death, I would wear Aventus over Guerlain Vétiver any day of the week. But I admit not being the perfect gentleman ☺.
Nice JLC, I love the reverso
Thanks, Thos! It's a great watch.
Glad to see the Reverso getting some love! Brian which model Reverso are you wearing?
Here it is: bit.ly/2Ow5xyY
@@hespokestyle Do a video on this....... It's a great watch...
Great video (with the fragrance notes in a window very useful) Being in France, I know Eau Sauvage is one of the 2 or 3 most successful "parfums" of all times....and it is because it's so incredible and was ahead of it's time in 68....
I enjoyed this video and purchased Eau Savage, Floris 89, Guerlain Vetiver, Eight and Bob Original, Acqua di Parma Colonia. It's been fun experimenting with fragrances and I like your descriptions and back stories.
Love me some Green Irish Tweed. Don’t typically wear it in winter but I feel I’m going to make an exception.
It's really pretty versatile.
Well spring will be here soon.
Oh, this is my third fav.
Indeed!
First and second?
nice to see someone recognize Penhaligon's
How can you not?!
Herb D Love Penhaligons. My wife bought me some for Christmas having never hear of them before. A great discovery for me.
@@ForTheLoveOfSuits I currently use Bayolea, but have been trying sartorial and quercus and Endymion
Expect to get to blenhiem the summer. Best
That's awesome.
Let us know what you think!
Terribly impressed you included Old Spice. Well done!
Cheers!
Awesome video. Keep up the great work👍🏼
Hey! I just found your channel through this video and I wonder, how youtube has not recommended me your channel earlier! May I ask where you have got your glasses from? They look so nice
No idea but glad you're here. Glasses are by Cubitts: bit.ly/2GhgaRm
Ralph Lauren Polo Green is my classic cologne choice .
It's great.
I absolutely love Creed GIT. Definitely my gateway to niche fragrances. Yes, Old Spice brings back very fond memories from my childhood.
Thumbs up for choosing Acqua di Parma Colonia and Knize ten. They are both always in my home. I do think that AdP has longer longevity than you say. I get 4-5 hours out of it. Knize ten only gets better as you get to know it and it lasts very long.
When I was in my early teens, my mom bought me my first deodorant & cologne set from Brut and later Lagerfeld cologne. Ever since Lagerfeld it has been my signature scent.
Sweet! Thanks for sharing!
LAGERFELD was my signature back in the day,might have to revisit it again...
Female point of view... Lagerfeld is IT !! One of the most pleasant fragrances I have ever encountered (for men). In a world where both men and women layer scent, Lagerfeld is refreshing and unoffensive. I am a big fan of " a little dab'll do ya ".
@@kathleensullivan9914 Yes Indeed 👍🏿🙂
Ha - Eau Sauvage was my first ever. There is a story here - This is likely(the original) my favorite scent and the original English Leather Timberline by MEM is a close second
Very cool! Thanks for chiming in!
A very enjoyable video - well done! Your choices are excellent. Mostly safe but not boring. Very pleased to see Knize Ten among them (my favourite) which, as you say, is more niche. Also nice to see Blenheim Bouquet which I'm very fond of. Pour Monsieur by Chanel deserves to be there, and for Olde Worlde dandy charm I would include Penhaligion's Hammam Bouquet and Mouchoir de Monsieur by Guerlain which I wear on the odd occasion.
Subscribed. Love this. Thank you
Thanks for the sub!
Great little selection of refined, aromatic classic scents. You sir carry yourself like a true gentleman, and if you walked past me I'd probably melt through the floor. 🙈
Ah, you're too kind. I'm just a normal person.
I would put Aramis in there.
What a pleasant presentation! I'm not used to this level of classiness on RUclips. Very informative. I took notes!
Wow, thank you!
Great list...I know it's tough when limiting yourself to just 10. I have Green Irish Tweed as well as Bois du Portugal and Viking which both work well and from Penhaligon's I really like Sartorial.
I would definitely add Aramis (classic) to the list...its a real classic, outperforms most of the fragrances you mentioned and can be had for very little money these days.
Everyone who won't spent serious money on Green Irish Tweed, should check out Coty - Aspen, it's very similar to GIT and is a real cheapie, without smelling cheap.
Cool. Thanks for chiming in!
Ron, I would agree w/you two decades ago. The problem w/Aspen today, it's been reformulated and it's staying power is terrible. In other words, it's watered down--shame, but a fact. GIT is the way to go and saving for it is well worth the price tag--you can find int on discounters for half the price as retail. Shop around. If you don't want to pony up the cash for GIT, another option is Cool Water and that may suffice. Hope this helps, thanks.
@@amgolfer3591 I dont find the recent Aspen a terrible performer. Even thou it doesnt last the whole working day, likd GIT does, it's so cheap you basically can bath in it and reapply. Not to say Apsen smells as sophisticated as GIT but its definitely in the same ballpark.
As you mentioned, also over here in Europe GIT can be had for much less than the official Creed retail price (I paid around 150 EUR for a 100 ml bottle), its nevertheless an expensive fragrances for most and Aspen gives you at least a taste of GIT.
Aramis every year at Christmas we would get a the Aramis red and black umbrella as a gift with purchase.
Chanel Antaeus is my favorite.
That Old Spice! ❤️
Familiar with it?
@@hespokestyle Yes, it's my favorite After shave.
Sweet!
Chanel Antaeus is a great scent but too animalistic to be on a classic list. It screams LUST. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Antaeus is my lifetime scent but Antaeus today isnt same. Antaeus lost very specific formula that make this scent killing. What I miss in this classic list is Chanel pour Monsieur.
I have never tried these fragrances before, but your sense of style, rich content, detailed professional description, and great fluent presentation make me feel you should have a great taste in fragrances. I'm gonna try them all, great video, btw I subscribed
Thanks, Peter! These are all very highly regarded classics. You can't go wrong with any of them.
@@hespokestyle thanks
Great video and emotional too. Brings back some memories of my dad. I use two of the ones you mentioned although I'm a big Tom Ford Oud Wood guy.
Thanks, Derek! Which two do you have? Oud Wood is a good one.
@@hespokestyle RL Green bottle and one of my Eight & Bob Org. Love the channel. Thanks for putting out the quality content.
Penhaligon’s Endymion is my wife’s favourite.
Nice! I'm not familiar. What's it like?
Endymion is flowery. Too much so for my personal tastes.
Agreed and arguably more "Classic" feeling than Blenheim Bouquet...even though was released less than 20 years ago.
A very nice fragrance for women as well, tbh.
GIT is my signature scent. Great video. Thank you
Awesome! It's great.
Superb collection and suggestions on what to and where to.
Great video. I was recently gifted a bottle of Eight & Bob and absolutely love it! I personally haven't come across one person that doesn't like it. Glad to see it on this list.
Nice! Thanks for chiming in, Romy. Was it different than you expected? Personally, I thought it would be more like a fougere so I was uite surprised when I smelled it.
@@hespokestyle I really had no expectations, as it was a gift. I just found it to be a really nice classic style scent. It's mature and classy and so far in my experience it's been a real crowd pleaser. I don't really have any other fragrances that are quite like this, so I'm very happy to have it in my collection.
I reckon you need Guerlain Habit Rouge on the list. It's a classic masterpiece that I love wearing as a younger guy.
By the way, James Dean apparently wore Knize Ten!
I'm going to have to try Habit Rouge. I was honestly not familiar before this video.
@@hespokestyle Definitely try HABIT ROUGE by GUERLAIN,a very MATURE scent it's not for everyone but I think you'll really like it,it's really GREAT for rainy days,because the performance is so GOOD....3-4sprays 10+ hours....
@@hespokestyle Honestly, Habit Rouge and Floris 89 share a similar scent profile. Habit rouge has a stronger vanilla and citrus accord. I agree that floris 89 can be worn all year round, while Habit Rouge EdT is a bit more suited to the cooler seasons. Both are great and rarely smelled here in the states.
Habit Rouge is fantastic
I agree that Habit Rouge by Guerlain is a magnificent fragrance. Consider Equipage by Hermès. Eau Savage is a true classic! Thanks, interesting video.
Creed Aventus, my favorite
I’ve heard great things about it, would definitely need to visit a creed boutique to try some out
Good choice. I agree with you. I also like your channel, it shows you work hard.
I like classic fragrances and your list is very useful. My current go-tos are Geo. Trumper Portugal and Curzon. More modern faves are Le Labo Bergamote 22 and Penhaligon Sartorial.
