A good (citrus-y) fragrance for summer?

Those sound very good, thanks.

TRINI: I said that I consider ordering Creed Himalaya but still could also check the Clinique (have never heard of it). As for Miyake, I have to admit to some sort of prejudice to that firm. Not that it is too much connected but some 15 or so years ago I had a gf who wore L'Eau d'Issey by Miyake (then, maybe 'round 91/2, (it was) new) and we had a major falling-out. So I maybe wouldn't want to buy Miyake, maybe its stupid (or baka

) but I rather would not...anyway, some cool suggestions, still-- ; thanks!

Czech & Speake's Neroli is very summery. Is as their Citrus Paradisi, which is a grapefruit and oakmoss composition.

I think anything with pomegrant in it is excellent. it's very summer smelling, and citrus-y but not too much.
wal mart and target both sell candles, so I'm sure they have a room spray, or body spray as well.

I don't know about bath and body works, but I'm sure they have something like it.

Gucci pour homme II is nice and light. I wear it most days.

Bigarade Concentree by Frederick Malle

Like all Citrus scents, it doesn't have the best staying power, but it is a fantastic scent

I see some mention of Acqua di Gio, which is actually an OK fragrance in itself, however I smelled it so much back in college that I always associate it with frat boys with entirely too much hair gel and popped collars. I think it has ruined the scent for me by association even though it isn't bad in itself.

Anybody use Truefitt and Hill 1805 cologne? That's one of my favorites for summer.

^ I don't know the 1805 but your post reminded me of wanting to try their West Indian Lime one...

ChicagoRon: Will look into that Bigarade Concentree, too- thanks.

Lacoste green (not sure what flavor), is my favorite light scent.

Try "Jicky". Classic citrus fragrance.

It's not a citrus, but when you do that; also try Geraniums pour Monsieur - it's not a citrus, but it's a fantastic summer fragrance with a little more staying power. http://www.basenotes.net/ID26130582.html

L'eau d'Issey is a classic, but I have a personal rule that I won't use any fragrance that can be found in the stock of a bathroom attendant. I think I used my last spritz in 2005.

I love Clinique Happy but it does not last on me.

Odin - 02
Maison Francis Kurkdjian - aqua universalis
Atelier cologne - orange sanguine

Acqua di Gio smells nice but unfortunately it's the #1 best selling male fragrance.

L'eau d'Issey also a classic but very strong-- I only wear this to, like, the CLUB.

Terre d'Hermes is my recommendation: citrus, subtle.
