This one fyi - https://www.yslbeautyus.com/fragrance/mens-fragrances/y/y-eau-de-parfum/727YSL.html

Like random women regularly complimenting it. I won't think about changing or trying anything new.

Oud For Greatness Eau de Parfum. I bought it for my husband. He loves it. I love it.

Creed Aventus, Louis Vuitton Meteor

My wife got me some Acqua del Lario Ventone while we were on a trip and it’s simply the best. Good enough for people to actually ask what I’m wearing every now and then. Unfortunately, you probably can’t find it to test it, unless you’re in Europe. However, I promise it smells amazing and would definitely be a unique gift.

I believe you can get testers directly from the company if you can't find it in the states.

Tygar Blvgari

YSL blue, CREED and Bond may also have some great options

Armani code, Issey Miyake, Le Labo

Joop! got me a wife back in the 90s. Recommended by Details magazine.

I actually have some Joop. It was what my dad wore. He died in ‘07 but I keep some in my cologne humidor (I use an old cigar box for my cologne).

Baccarat 450 is a must have for any collector. So is Creed Aventus, Oud Wood ( TF or creed), Le Labo ( lots to choose from - Santal is a people's favorite)

Carolina Herrera 212

le labo

Jo Malone Moonlit Camomile (love this - bought for my bf and it’s almost out - he’s buying another to replace)

Jo Malone Cypress & Grapevine

I also like the Montblanc Starwalker, and the Explorer

Others - Gisada Switzerland, Cosmic Pepper Mancera Paris

I am product designer with a fair amount of experience (6yrs).

Recently was interviewed for a Sr. role in Booking but unfortunately, the team finds me better suited as a core individual contributor.

I am also in the advanced stages of some lead designer positions in other companies.

However I am really interested in joining the team at Booking, especially because of the design culture.

What should be my reasons to accept or not accept the offer from booking?
