No trolls please!!
Younger associates, please don't use a TF Oud in office, you will come across as obnoxious. Go for a corp freshie like a Hugo Boss, Burberry Him, Givenchy Gentleman, Armani ADG etc.
Dior J'adore!

Maison Francis Kurkdijan Gold Fluidity
Tom Ford Lost Cherry (does not last so don’t recommend)
Atelier Cologne Clementine California
Creed Aventus
Terre d'Hermes - for summer.

For everyday use:
I really like Chumbak's Midnight Stroll;
Nykaa's afterglow and;
Renee's Bloom
Natural Sweat by Mumbai Humidity on regular days.
I use the following-
1. Paco Rabanne 1 million - Daily use.
2. Burberry Hero - Sometimes or spl occasion.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
In use the following -
1. Tom form Tobacco vanille - Daily
2. Burberry hero - weekend or at home
3. Dior Suavage - Parties and stuff
Have a Hermes h24 don't use that much though
For normal everyday use you could go for a blue fragrance like Aqua Di Gio Profondo/Parfum or a Dior Sauvage EDP/Elixir.
If you're low on budget a Lacoste l.12.12 blanc is a great option. It was what introduced me to the world of fragrances and I stand by it.
Byredo Rose of No Man's Land (if price is not an issue)
Narciso Rodríguez For Her (Smells like heaven)
Then, you the classics - Gucci Flora, Gucci Bloom, Chanel No. 5
Fogg - Yellow One - Everyday use
TF Neroli or Sauvage dupes for officeCK One or Rossa black dupes for everyday use
Winters
Maison Martin Autumn Vibes or Ombre Nomade dupes for office
Interlude dupes for everyday use
All year fragrance
Afnan 9PM for dinners or parties (one of the best dupes of JPG Ultra Male)
The reason I use dupes is because I smell good at a fraction of the price. House of Lattafa, Afnan, Rasasi, Em5 and Ajmal offer good dupes.
Diptyque Tam Dao - slightly strong on the sandalwood but if you like that, hard recommend.
Creed Aventus - pricey but lasts long, everyone will know you splurge (so could be a good or bad thing).
Rasasi Hawas - 5k (summer)
Nautica Voyage / Davidoff Cool Water - 2.5k (summer)
Also, I combine a perfume on the clothes + attar/ ittar on the skin pulse points. Ittar for myself, perfume for someone who ventures close enough.
