angryjoe Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Just wear Lynx (Axe) on a day to day basis, but when I'm going out I wear Dunhill London. Before that I used to wear this crappy fcuk stuff or just use whatever free samples I got my hands on. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribal Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Dude, I've got the Hollister stuff. Seriously, I do. Then I have Curve (The green bottle) and Armani black as well. Ladies dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateralus Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Cologne is such a sleazy word. It's aftershave. Anyway, Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet and Armani Black are what I wear. I don't wear aftershave every day anymore - I've gotten lazy and must stink. Uh, cologne isn't the same thing as aftershave. Aftershave is the stuff you put on after you shave, cologne is the stuff you can put on anytime. British thing. If it's fragrant liquid that you're supposed to put on your skin, it's aftershave.

dusqi Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I detest smelling like anything. So I pride myself on smelling neutral. I suppose for my scent you could spritz water on your self. Ditto that. Strong scent makes me cough. For it is the greyness of dusk that reigns.The time when the living and the dead exist as one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcneilp Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I've got this Calvin Klein aftershave/cologne that smells freaking sweet. Only wear it on nights out/special occasions. There's a guy at work who reeks of some cheap cologne. Can't stand it. When he walks past you can taste it on the breeze and it makes everything else taste of his cheap scent. Ughh. :| It isn't in the castle, It isn't in the mist, It's a calling of the waters, As they break to show, The new Black Death, With reactors aglow, Do you think your security, Can keep you in purity, You will not shake us off above or belowScottish frictionScottish fiction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I've always loved the smell of those cheap $3 aftershaves; smelled as if it had menthol in it. It comes in a green bottle I think. But, there is one guy that I've know who just wore alcohol. Which kind of told me that he preferred performance or practicability over expensive alternatives but I also found it to smell good.

BlueLancer Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I really don't see the point considering how expensive the "proper" ones are ($70-$300 for a very small bottle), the price isn't the issue, it's the sleazy product you get in return. Shaving lotion+ a few drops liquid aftershave is enough. I also got gift bottles of davidoff coolwater/black armani but rarely use them. I have to concur with a previous poster... Smelling strongly like something distinctive is not always an advantage especially in professional situations. That davidoff stuff smells like cut grass, lemon and mint mixed together. But each to their own. cheap green stuff etc. Yeah that's Mennen Cheap and effective. Detested by few and appreciated by many. It's all you need really.

Barihawk Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 What I think is funny about my cologne choices is that it's mostly for men (or in some cases women) to notice me and that I'm willing to go out of my way to impress them. Mostly for professional stuff, though. Right guard, good hygiene, and a little gillette aftershave is all I do for day-to-day (and even dates). My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/salespitch] Probably one of the first bathroom items a lot of kids recognise from childhood too, besides toothpaste brands. I remember that stuff very well. That's the aftershave I used the first time I shaved, and that's the after shave my dad has always used. I like the way it smells. My aftershave is crap.

deathdrow Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I've got a crappy david beckham cologne my friend gave me a while back. I don't like it much. I've also got this other cologne, that I never ever use. I've had it for too long, and it smells wierd now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangeor Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 Well, I went to Macy's and smelled about 15 different types of cologne. After a while I narrowed it down to Armani Black and Hugo Element. I chose the Hugo Element because it came with free shower gel :P It smells so good!

Erk02 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Really, at the point where you think that ANY scented body spray/deodorant is acceptable, you're wrong. Very wrong. The only way to be good is to wear a non-scented deodorant. Anyways, for cologne recommendations, I'd say scents like Kenneth Cole Reaction if you're on the poor side, Armani Code if you can afford it, and any Comme Des Garcons scent if you think you can pull it off. Avoid scents like Armani Acqua di Gio like the plague. Those scents are incredibly played out, and every "stylish" high school student has them. I do English to Japanese and Japanese to English translation for free! Just keep it under 5 sentences, and PM me to use my fluency in Japanese to your advantage!

ChaosFlames Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Whatever happened to the Axe scent Unlimited? I loved that one.. Oh, and a friend bought an Axe from Egypt I think it was or something. It was called Atlantis and I had never seen it before. Loved the smell, wasn't too strong and had a fresh, clean scent to it.

hellbellz Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 It's called Sex Panther by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries... Yep, it's made with bits of real panther, so you know it's good.

DerekZoolandah Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Heh, I just use Irish Spring soap and Right Guard and smell fine.

Lenticular_J Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 It's the movie Anchorman. Which, in turn, referenced the film Spanish Fly. EDIT: Joes, I really hope you don't pour it on yourself like they do in the store. That's gotta be the nastiest, more over-powering smell in the world. I get a headache just walking by that store. Some of their clothes are nice, though. Very easy to find just as nice - or better - for cheaper, though. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joes_So_Cool Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I wear the stuff that it smells like in Abercrombie, not the Cologne from Abercrombie, the stuff they spray all their clothes with. It smells amazing and I get it for free, since a friend works there and just takes a few spray bottles full, sadly enough, I can't find out what it is though? Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumpta Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I once had an interesting talk with my friends (all girls) about our preferred men's perfume. Hugo Boss came out as the one pretty much all of us swoon for. For quite some time, I couldn't enter a store without going to take a whiff of this: However, ever since I discovered Boss designed nazi and SS uniforms, my less pheromoneridden and more ethical nature turned me a bit squeamish about Boss perfume.
