Recs for current collection?

I have currently: YSL LNDL, Prada L’Homme, MFK Grand Soir, Mancera Instant Crush, Azzaro Most Wanted Parfum, Valentino BIR EDT, and Burberry Brit for him. I like them all a lot except the Valentino, will probably give that to my brother. Any recs based on my current collection? I feel I need a summer fragrance or a true gourmand, maybe an Acqua di Parma and Angels Share?

I haven't tried all or even most of the Acqua di Parma collection, but of the summery/citrus ones I have tried, most had pretty poor performance. I'd suggest sampling (don't buy full bottles before sampling) the following that are citrusy and great for summer:

"Casamorati - Fiero | Xerjoff"

Nio is more green than citrus but also good for summer; great performance

Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense nice lime

Terre d'Hermès Eau Givrée

"Emeer | Lattafa / لطافة"

Dior Homme Sport (2021)

For something marine/aquatic:

Chrome Aqua

Aqva pour Homme Marine Eau de Toilette

Signature Seraphim Blue

Megamare

Missoni Wave

For something fresh and fruity:

Explorer Platinum

Hacivat

Sangria Oak

Chrome Extrême

Legend Blue

For something aquatic & woody:

Ghyoom

Cool Water Eau de Toilette

Kenzo Homme Eau de Toilette Intense

Thanks man, this is a good list. Missoni Wave looks cheap enough to just blind buy it and then I’ll probably get a sample of the Terre d’Hermes

Keep in mind that the ADP Colonia lines are Cologne concentrations and the Blue Mediterraneo line are EDTs. They're not designed to be long lasting. The signature of the sun line are EDPs.

ADP has started introducing several of their fragrances, such as Fico di Amalfi La Riserva, Arancia di Capri La Riserva, and Mirto di Panarea La Riserva as edps. Also look at Buongiorno. They should give you longer performance. I get 6-8 hours of wear out of Buongiorno.

One I think that @Smirky missed is Versace Man Eau Fraîche Eau de Toilette. Perfect mass-appealing dumb-reach summer scent in my opinion.

As for gourmands, I think Angels' Share Eau de Parfum is a fine choice. As long as you're sampling Kilians, I'd look into Intoxicated, Gold Knight and Old Fashioned as well, all three are great gourmand frags, coffee/cardamom, honey, and whisky/wheat respectively.

I'd also recommend Noir Extreme Eau de Parfum and "L'Homme Idéal Parfum | Guerlain" for other gourmand choices.

Yeah I did notice the new Riservas, but aren’t they technically completely different scents than the EDTs?

I’ll look into Eau Fraiche, didn’t see that one at Sephora when I went to test last weekend. I’ve heard good things about it though. What about French Riviera by Mancera by the way?

I’ve smelled Intoxicated, not a big fan of coffee notes but it did smell good, still preferred Angels Share though. I’ll have to sample Old Fashioned.

L’homme Idéal EDP is on my wish list, how does the Parfum compare?

ADP has described them as intense versions of the EDPs. Simply put they changed the concentrations. As such, there's slight differences from the EDTs, but that's what happens with flankers. I've tried two of them. I think they're worth sampling. But, I also enjoy ADP having a number of their fragrances in my collection.

Wasn’t a huge fan. Smells like hairspray/sunscreen, and not in a good way.

They are similar but L'Homme Idéal Eau de Parfum leans more into the benzaldehyde (think maraschino cherries/marzipan) and vanilla, while "L'Homme Idéal Parfum | Guerlain" is boozier from the amaretto plus more leathery, and doesn’t have that cherry overtone. More masculine in my opinion.

Si te gusta Intoxicated, prueba A Men de Mugler, es muy similar (en mi opinión) y mucho más barato. Y ya que mencioné Mugler, si quieres aromas gourmand en la misma línea, hay algunos para elegir (Pure Tonka, Pure Havane, Pure Coffee, Pure Malt, etc.).

Some gourmand i would suggest are

Starlight

"Khamrah / خمرة | Lattafa / لطافة"

Addicted+

"Hard Candy (2023) | Aaron Terence Hughes" or its Elixir "Hard Candy Élixir | Aaron Terence Hughes"

Or something that says production has stopped but actually is still available is

Mr Majestic

A house that specialises in gourmand is Maison Tahité with the likes of

Vicious Cacao but I warn you if you are on a diet this can be dangerousness as it is so real smelling it will have you craving some very high calorie dessert 😁

great summer fragrances

Torino21

Riviera Maya

Ozone (2023)

If you can find it Acqua di Giò Profumo Parfum

Or people say though I have not tried it so can’t confirm that this is it’s replacement

Acqua di Giò Parfum

Another I like a lot of theirs is

Acqua di Giò Profondo Parfum

"Hawas for Him | Rasasi / الرصاصي"

Someone mentioned Versace Man Eau Fraîche Eau de Toilette

Another in that area could be Light Blue pour Homme Eau Intense

There are then something a bit tropical

Le Beau Paradise Garden

Le Beau Le Parfum

Summer Hammer

Riviera Maya

People have been talking about "Island | Khadlaj / خدلج" being a stronger juicier version of Le Beau Le Parfum but at a cheaper price but that you will need to macerate it (spray a few times and leave it a while and it will become better, same actually goes for "Khamrah / خمرة | Lattafa / لطافة" the longer you have it the better it gets)

Speaking of gourmands - I really don't like them BUT the following, although probably not a gourmand, is a really good leather-chocolate-vanilla that's not overly sweet and not overly chocolate (you won't smell like you jumped in a vat of cocoa). Performance is great. IMO, niche quality, masculine, for very cheap with a kitschy bottle. Most would probably say it's better for cooler weather. I disagree, but that's me.

Nose on that one is Alberto Morillas. Another one of his is:

Pi Eau de Toilette

Personally, can't stand it, but a lot of guys like it. Very sweet, smell of pound cake batter.
