    Got a big smile on my face when Jean Nate was mentioned upthread; I have such fond memories of the ladies in my family dousing themselves with it to combat the summer heat of the Deep South in the days before we all had air conditioning.

    Thanks for a lovely draw!

    I live in the US and my favoriteis als Iris Nobile. I prefer the EDT.
    Does Jean Nate constitute a “cologne.” I remember it being marketed as a “splash” to be literally splashed on after a bath or shower.

  29. imapirate says:
    2 July 2013 at 2:05 pm

    I live in the US and I love ADP Mandorlo Di Sicilia. One of my other favorite colognes that doesn’t get much love is Roget & Gallet Bouquet Imperial which reminds me of L’Artisan Mure et Musc, but with less of a berry scent, but really nice in the summer, and very unisex. I think by now it’s probably discontinued.
    thanks!

  30. Absolute Scentualist says:
    2 July 2013 at 2:12 pm

    I live in the US, haven’t tried anything from AdP yet, but my favorite cologne at the moment is Dior Eau Sauvage followed closely by almost every Atelier I’ve tried. 🙂

  31. mitsouko says:
    2 July 2013 at 2:22 pm

    I live in the US and I love Profumo by AdP . It reminds me of Mitsouko even in the reformulation. I love it . Thanks for this lovely draw !

  34. Sydscents says:

    2 July 2013 at 3:18 pm

    I live in the U.S., and I really want to expand my cologne collection now that hot weather has hit. The best I have now is Eau de Hadrian.

  36. Gennyleigh says:
    2 July 2013 at 3:28 pm

    I live in the US. I’ve been wearing the heck out of my Tom Ford Neroli Portofino sample, but I do love a good splash of cold Jean Nate on a hot summer’s day!

  37. NeenaJ says:
    2 July 2013 at 3:29 pm

    I live in the US.

    My favorite cologne is Chanel Eau de Cologne. I splurged on a decant during one of the StC flash sales. Perfect for the humid heat in the Southeast.

  38. Elle Golbane says:
    2 July 2013 at 3:41 pm

    My favorite Acqua di Parma is simply the lotion of AdP Colonia – it is classic, and that bouquet of summer scents brings a smile to my face every time. I remember the very first time I smelled it from a sample I got in a boutique and was mesmerized.
    I live in the U.S. Thank you, Robin!

  39. lindeberg38 says:
    2 July 2013 at 3:51 pm

    I live in the US in NYC. I am obsessed with the Aqua di Parma
    Essenza deodorant spray. The huge can lasts me at least 5
    to 6 months or longer. And, in the summer it’s all I need to use
    on a hot summer day. So strong, I can smell it on my body the next
    morning. Truly perfection. This winter I may need to go back and
    get the actual fragrance too, but for now, another purchase
    of the deodorant spray will do fine. 16 ounces of pure heaven.

  40. RusticDove says:
    2 July 2013 at 3:53 pm

    I do live in the US.

    My favorite AdP is between Mandorlo di Sicilia and Iris Nobile, but the Colonia is one of my husband’s favorites, so it would be way cool to win this for him. 🙂

    Thanks for the chance Robin. XO

  41. farouche says:

    I live in the US and my favorite is AdP Colonia! It’s one of my summer staples and I would love the chance to win a bottle to replace the one that is quickly being depleted.

    Thank you so much for the wonderful draw!

  48. Thora_W says:
    2 July 2013 at 5:37 pm

    I do live in the US (Texas) and my favorite AdP is from their Blu Mediterraneo line, Arancia di Capri. I reminds me of my father and every time I wear it I feel a combination of melancholy and love, as he passed away 2 years ago.

  49. SuddenlyInexplicably says:
    2 July 2013 at 5:46 pm

    I live in the U.S.

    I don’t have a favorite classic cologne because I live in an area where it rarely gets warm. But as I usually travel to a hot place during the summer (NYC, for example), I could definitely use some classic cologne in my collection. Thanks for the opportunity to win some!

  50. Connie says:

  62. sweetgrass says:
    2 July 2013 at 8:03 pm

    I live in the US, and my favorite cologne is Eau Sauvage, though I also have a soft spot for Brut because my dad wears it. The only AdP I’ve tried at all is Gelsomino Nobile. I don’t really remember exactly what it smelled like but I remember liking it well enough.

  63. Rednails says:
    2 July 2013 at 8:19 pm

    I live in the US and my favorite cologne is Aramis. It’s a fine substitute for the old Cabochard, which has been adulterated beyond recognition. I have a 1970s bottle.

  73. Omega says:
    2 July 2013 at 10:37 pm

    I live in the US. My favorite cologne is yet undetermined – actually, I’m in the testing phase looking for one for summer. I have a sample of Chanel’s on the way, in fact. I have been meaning to try this, spritzed some on the DH in NM in SF. He loved it, I loved it on him.

    Thanks for the draw!

    My favorite ADP would have to Magnolia Nobile. Love the magnolia note, doesn’t seem to be used often enough!

  88. gvillecreative says:
    3 July 2013 at 8:34 am

    I live in the US (woot woot!).

    My favorite AdP is Iris Nobile. Love that stuff— so pretty. I crave it in the summer.

    For a favorite overall cologne, I’d have to say Jardin sur le Nil. Not a true cologne exactly but oh so lovely, and does the job.

  89. Rictor07 says:
    3 July 2013 at 9:15 am

    3 July 2013 at 10:23 am

    Not sure what classic cologne actually means, but maybe the following is a reasonable definition: I think it’s beautiful, and at least complex enough to hold my interest. My fiancee thinks it smells like aftershave at some point during the scent’s development. Possibly I agree, but that doesn’t stop me from loving it.
    -DSH Bermuda Lyme
    -biehl eo 02
    -Union Quince Mint & Moss
    -Nicolai Eau MiXte
    Many thanks to a magical Perfume Fairy Godmother from Perfume Posse for introducing me to two of these beauties!

  92. Fernando says:
    3 July 2013 at 10:30 am

    I do live in the US. I have a bottle of Guerlain’s Cologne Imperial, which I rarely use because it’s so fleeting. But it’s very good too, perhaps best for just before going to bed.

  93. jennerous says:

    I live int he US. I would like to enter the drawing for Acqua di Parma Colonia. I do not have a favorite yet but have read many reviews about this one.

  97. nancysg says:
    3 July 2013 at 1:01 pm

    I consider Colonia the gold standard of colognes. Every alternative is judged against it. I live in the US.

  98. Ginny M says:
    3 July 2013 at 1:12 pm

    I live in the U.S., and lately I’ve been enjoying Chanel’s wonderful Eau de Cologne. It, like so many true colognes, is fleeting on my skin, but that doesn’t make it any less lovely! (Guerlain’s Eau de Cologne Imperiale is also quite lovely but has even less staying power: I can hardly travel from one room to the next without losing its scent!)

  99. missionista says:
    3 July 2013 at 1:14 pm

    Hi!
    I live in the U.S.

    I didn’t think I had a favorite classic cologne, as I couldn’t think of any, but then I read the comments and saw Jean Nate mentioned. I loved that–I remember my mom would wear it in the summer, and every so often as a special treat, I’d get to have a splash of it as well!

    For more modern colognes, I bought a 30ml bottle of Atelier’s Trefle Pur, so I guess that would be it.

    Hi!!!!
    I do live in the US. I LIVE IN ALABAMA. SMALL TOWN.
    I AM A PERFUME ADDICT, I first started loving Acqua Di Parma in 2005, when I got a taste of GOOD perfume. My BFF gave me some adp Blu Meditterrano Mandorlo Di Sicilia, it smelled like nothing I had ever smelled. I was turned on to niche then and there. But didn’t know it. I would LOVE to win.

    I live in the US and my fave cologne is Guerlain 68. It’s also my only cologne unless you count some vintage shalimar in cologne concentration.. Thanks or the draw!

    I live here in the U.S. Last week we went to Cedar Point in Ohio. On our way home we stopped by the Magnificent Mile in Chicago. I sampled the Colonia Intensa Oud at Nordstrom’s and thought it was really nice. Bel Ami would be my classic cologne. Thanks!

    I live in the US, and my favorite cologne is Eau de Rochas. I love the earthy patchouli underneath the dry citrus. Thanks for the draw!

    Other Magnolia Nobile fans! Cool! I live in the U.S. (unless Texas secedes anytime soon) and love AdP’s Colonia, Chanel’s Cologne, and pretty much all eaux des colognes!

    I live in the US there are a many classic fragrances I enjoy but the one off the top of my mind would be Yatagan by Caron.

    I live in the US, and my favorite classic-style cologne is Neroli Portofino by Tom Ford. It’s new, but it smells like a classic to me!

    Hoping to get my entry in, just under the wire 😉

    I have never had the chance to properly sample any offerings from Acqua Di Parma. Upon a couple of occasions smelling their wares on scent strips my request for a vial was unfulfilled. Getting the chance to check out this legendary fragrance would be truly appreciated.

    That said, my favorite classic is Dunhill For Men (Eau De Cologne 1934). This is truly an under the radar classic, that I believe was ahead of it’s time, and inspired many later masculines. Guerlain’s Vetiver and Old Spice are also strong contenders.

    If I were to be so lucky to win, you have permission to contact me via my email associated with my profile.

    Best of luck to all, and happy 4th weekend to all fellow US citizens.
