I want to get something nice for him for Xmas. Any recommendations for a fragrance up to £40? Thank you!

Personally, Acqua di Gio I think is lovely. It gets rather poor reviews as being a bit dull etc but I love it. I bought dh something else last year and wish I hadn't - I spent AGES choosing it as well Sad - it was the Prada infusion d'homme which is just a bit plasticky tbh.

My favourite is still Dior's Eau Sauvage - classic but lovely, I think.

Hugo Boss

Or Diesel Only the brave.

Isn't this like asking a man what bra to buy his DW ??? Confused. You are making suggestions based on what you like not your DH/DP IYSWIM

It is a really old aftershave but I love Fareneit.

ItalianLady · 07/12/2010 16:27

Farenheit.

Issey Miyake.

Molinko · 07/12/2010 16:30

I've always loved the original Dolce & Gabbana mens fragrance that comes in the navy blue box.

pipplin · 07/12/2010 22:10

Estee Lauder beyond paradise. Oh my I wish dp would get some/ I could justify buying him some.

kittycatcat · 10/12/2010 13:28

Ditto Issey Miyake. It's LUSH!

GraceK · 10/12/2010 14:20

For a old classic George Trumper colognes - I favour the citrus ones GFT or Extract of Limes. If you like musk instead then Bay Rum is nice & worn by James Bond in the books. Bit unusual but been around sinc men started using smellies

tomhardyismydh · 10/12/2010 14:23

Givenchy Gentleman
" this woody aromatic opens with a top note of tarragon, cinnamon, and bergamot, giving its vibrant originality. The mid notes of patchouli, vetiver, sandalwood, rose, and carnation convey its 'well-bred' appeal, making it easily identifiable. The base of civet and russian leather give it the coziness of a seductive fragrance. " does it for me.
