I don't usually reccommend big name mainstream fragrances, but if you want something for when you're dresssed up that can still manage to not seem out of place day-to-day, Chanel Allure Homme is a great fragrance. John Varvatos is a strong scent (impression-wise, not smell-wise) and is one that I use with a suit. For soemthing completely different but suited to your occasions, Dzing! by L'Artisan Parfumeur is somethign that must be tried at least twice before deciding on it, as it smells a bit different every time you smell it.
I picked up some Chanel Allure Homme and wore it last night while out at a nice dinner with my girlfriend. It was pretty similar to what I wanted, nice and subtle. No one coughed or gagged on the smell as I walked by and people seemed to get closer to me than normal when they wanted to talk. I had no outright compliments on my scent (besides my gf) but I wasn't really going for that effect. All in all in worked out great, thanks a lot for the recommendation.

You've rekindled an interest in smelling good as well... why can't I ever find cheap interests/hobbies?
