I'm on cdg 2 unisex and 8 88, and both are now going to be permanent buys.

All I've heard about cdg 2 man is that it's not 'so nice'…

2 man is a lot more wearable day to day imo, especially in the winter. often comes up on ebay for cheap so its worth a go at least.

broadcast, what do you mean by more wearable? you feel that the unisex one is too heavy, man is lighter for day to day use?

yeh. i don't know anything about fragrance but to me cdg2 is pretty flowery and sweet. a bit much for me to wear every day.
2 man is kind of smoky? don't really know how to describe it.. but definitely something i can wear every day when its colder. you should definitely try both though. i'm on my second bottle of 2, can see myself buying it forever.

i've been wearing Tom Ford for past 6 months..ran out this morning…

Going to buy a new one on Friday and I'm torn between sticking with the Tom Ford original and going for Tom Ford Black Orchid?

My favourite is Noir de Noir , it might be considered a little feminine ? by some guys but I think its fantastic . I was tempted to buy a big decanter of it today but it was £250 and I was trying to be good Laughing out loud
