Answer:
I converted my dad from Acqua di Gio by buying him Aqua de Bulgari PH. Another good alternative is L'Eau D'Issey.

Perhaps you could get decants from members here in time though.
I'd second Dunhill edition on that. To me, it's a very safe choice.

Its wearable but very different.
Other suggestions (designer rather than niche) for more formal scents, but in a mid-30s open-neck shirt kind of way;
Chanel pour Monsieur Concentree
Guerlain Heritage
Dunhill Edition
More nightwear style
Gucci Envy
YSL M7
Loli - Have a great Valentine's Day - and BTW love that avatar Brilliant suggestions! Every one of them! All of them, with the exception of Envy (which itself is still a good suggestion), are in my top 10.

Answer:
I just sampled some burberry London. The new one in the plaid bottle. I love it. Slightly woodsy Incensy spicy. Nice manly frag. I would also second the suggestion of getting some sample tubes and have him try them seperatly one per day. Again scent is so personal as has been mentioned before and of course every mans love is not every other mans love. Or some such thing as that.
There are alot of fans of Creed's Bois de Portugal here on the site. I tried to wear this. And tried. And tried. But just couldn't pull it off. But others swear by it. Same with Royal English Leather.

Answer:
Everyone, thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I've been a bit under the weather for the last two weeks, so that is the reason for my delayed response.
Again, thank you very much!

Answer:
We have not celebrated yet, because I've been under the weather.
