Really the best way to make your scent seem not so clone-ish and unique is to combine two or more scents. Break up you occasions into 4 categories.
Warm/Summer Daytime/Work mix
Warm/Summer Nighttime/Club/Party Mix
Cold/Winter Daytime/Work Mix
And Cold/Winter Nighttime/Party Mix
For a defined signature scent choose one cologne as your constant base and always use at least one spray of that…this way no matter what else you wear there is an element to it that is unmistakeably you. This is the part that makes women love wearing your shirts the morning after.
Personally for that, I use John Varvatos as I find the elements of tobacco, leather and coffee to give it a very masculine scent.
So for a summer/daytime mix I’ll use a single spray of Varvatos with a single spray of Abercrombie Fierce and then a couple of sprays of Cool Water.
CW is a pretty played out fragrance when used as a standalone and will usually be identified immediately by a woman that bought it for her brother or boyfriend, but the sharp citrus of Fierce and the muskier aspects of Varvatos lend something to it that makes it still a very unobtrusive and work safe scent but much more interesting than Cool Water alone could ever be.
You could make numerous combinations simply by playing with the ratio’s of two or three colognes that give each combo a unique flavor but since the elements are the same (especially your base scent) then they all have an aspect that becomes associated with you.
So much so that I’ve had women tell me that they couldn’t help but think of me as their morning coffee was brewing, or when they go shopping for a bag and get a sniff of new leather items, even the smell inside a humidor of a cigar shop has made women remember me. That’s the Varvatos
I had that reaction from a woman I wore Burberry london to work and she respnded well to it then over the weekend she went out to get a christmas tree and every time she smelled the christmas trees it reminded her of me that was a nice compliment
so quick question which one will give great silage and range?
i want one with alot of range/silage and if possible smell something like Armani Code
and thanks for the help

I recently got Armani Code for Men and Bleu de Chanel for my husband, and they smell great, I would say very similar to the originals!
I also got many ladies’ scents which smell great from the Common Scents. Their Pink Sugar is awesome, so is La Vie Est Belle and Prada Candy.
