...Thank you, kind folks, for your advice. I certainly have nose fatigue for the Bulgari. I have bought some new scents based on the recommendations on this site. I have also toned down the dosage, which must be good for those around me - although I rather miss having empty seats around me on the train to work!

...Hi, I've only recently started applyimg eau de toilette and my problem is that I work a very long day. I've bought some Bulgari Man which is very nice but I find that in order to still smell the fragrance at the end of the day I have to apply between 15 and 20 sprays at the beginning. At this rate I will get through my supply very quickly and I may have to get something cheaper next time. I was thinking about Cerruti 1881 which someone recommended. Does anyone know whether I will have to apply as much of that scent to get me through the day? Also, I smoke heavily and I'm wondering whether this is stopping me smelling the scent, would this be right?
