Good cologne for dad?

I need help ladies... What's a good cologne to get dad?  His birthday is next week and I'm at a loss for a good dad cologne scent.  Hmm

 What is your dad's fave?

 Any recomendations would be greatlty appreciated.

Re: Good cologne for dad?

  • are you stuck on buying him cologne?  i just think it's such a personal thing - i only buy that for the hub, and even then i'm hesitant because people can be really picky about what scent they wear.

  • Nope. Not stuck on it but he requested it - he kinda  threw out a huge hint to my mom and me that he needed/wanted new cologne/ a new scent to wear.

    So I'm going with that. Cause I can't think of anything else. :P

  • What cologne(s) does he normally wear?

  • His last one was Eternity for men. I peeked in his room.

  • My FIL wears (wore) Facconable. MH would occasionally wear it also.
  • how about a different calvin klein scent, then?

    the hub's current is dolce & gabbana's "the one."  it smells good.  i also have great memories of when he used to wear tiffany for men.  rowwwwwr.

  • Here are some that I think are along the same lines as Eternity for Men... 

     

    Essenza di Zegna- We bought this one recently for my FIL.  It has a mandarin top note like the Eternity, but the middle notes are different, less floral than Eternity.  It has some of the same base notes as Eternity (Amber and Vetiver).

     

    L?eau D?Issey pour Homme- This is a more spicy/peppery and woodsy than the Eternity.

     

    Ralph Lauren Romance for Men- contains lavender and mandarin top notes, like Eternity.  Base notes are pine, vetiver and clean musk.

     

    ETA:  I just realized that maybe you didn't want so much detail.  Sometimes I get carried away when it comes to this stuff.    Embarrassed  I hope you find something that your dad will enjoy!

  • what about a little sampler pack?  I know banana republic sells small bottles, you could get a couple for him to try out.  I'm thinking CK does the same?

    I don't think she wants this association with her dad. Ick!
