Polo Black or D&G Pour Homme.

I am always looking for new recommendations, maybe the Armani Attitude?

Wearing something 2-3 times a week is as close as I get to an everyday scent, and in weather that is not extreme hot or cold that's Patricia de Nicolai's New York.

The only other scents that come close to seeing that much use are Ungaro III (for cooler weather, something I'll probably try and keep a bottle of for the rest of my life), Paco Rabanne XS Pour Homme (for an office environment, and which I prefer to Creed's Himalaya), Envy (at night, predominately) and Yves Saint Laurent's M7 Fresh (I've experienced probably 30-40 "warm weather scents," from citruses to seawater aquatics to regular aquatics, all of which I absolutely despise and with the exception of Green Irish Tweed/Cool Water all of which give me headaches, and this is the only one that blindsides me with brilliance).

The rest of the time, I experiment. Experimentation makes up probably 2-4 days a week.

I should probably spent less money on colognes and more money on clothing.

Then again, I've got about 25 little decants of stuff I've never tried coming (including my hopes for the first Vetiver I'll like [Guerlain's] and a potentially more mature replacement for Envy), so that's not likely to happen any time soon.

It's simple, but I really dig polo blue and try to put it on whenever I can. It's hard to make it a habit.

Givenchy Very Irresistible - for men, almost daily. Fresh, and none of the sweet aroma that female scents have

I mainly rotate depending of weather, mood, what I'm doing: JPG Le Male, Issey l'eau D'Issey, Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet, YSL M7 Fresh, Creed Imperiale, and Jil Sander for men. Just picked up a bottle of Donna Karan Fuel on ebay which I plan to work into my rotation.

I've always touted L'Occitane every day summer fragrances. Well, I have a new favorite from them - their White Tea Eau de Toilette. I just picked it up this weekend and as part of their promotion had a few bar soaps tossed in for free. Like their Green Tea with Mint Eau de Toilette it just works well with my body chemistry and lasts all day long on me.

For evenings and special occasions I still stick with the Terre d'Hermes.

These days I've been alternating between Ormonde Man and Isfarkand. My gf tells me that she prefers Isfarkand, but I'm not sure if that's the truth or if she just wants me to ignore the fact that she purloined my bottle of Ormonde Man to use herself.

I don't know if it is up to SF standards but I use Givenchy Pour Homme Blue Label. I received it as a Christmas gift last year.
