Years ago, I decide I was not gay - and don't CARE how I smell, as long as I am reasonably clean.

deoderant is all a man wears. cologne is perfume by another name. Axe and Tag body spray are just perfume for boys

Hoppes #9 for everyday use. But when I've gotta go out with the Mrs. it's Dolce and Gabbana!

I've always found that the scent of freshly printed money
can be detected by most women from a range of three miles
or so

You guy's that use cologne? Remember, it's for AFTER your shower, not INSTEAD OF IT!

Carry on.

I really like Aqua Di Gio, but I believe that cologne is an accessory that should be a domant part of someones attire, meaning that one spray is sufficient two at most. Cologne is not something that you share with everyone that you walk by, but rather it should only be something that people you would hug should be able to enjoy.
I hope that made sense.

That sht makes me sneeze and feel bad, just the same as most womens sht .
When I worked maintiance for a very large retail company, I spent a lot of time fixing the lights in the cosmetics section.
Benidryl everyday is not your friend.
I stay clean, and my wife does too, she has her own scent that I know.
A small drop is not offensive, but most use the spray.
I avoid them like the 2 bit whores they smell like.
I do have some of the stinky sht here for me, but I can't wear it, go to the home of a person with Res. problems you are out of there.
If you are a Man and stay clean you will have a scent that your wife/So will know and they can fnd you in a crowd.
Be a Man stay clean stay with one woman, you will learn "her scent".
We are all animals and scent is a big part of living, If you hunt you will know what I am talking about.

When I come back from a camping or backpacking trip, EVERYTHING smells like smoke for weeks.
I keep a fire going through much of the day when I am up in the mountains. I dont really notice it so much when I am out on the trail, but my clothes and even me pick up that sweet smoke that you can only get from many hours (or in my case, days) of exposure. For weeks, the inside of my truck, all my gear, my sweatshirts, etc all smell like those campfires. That is the smell that reminds me of who I am.

When Im not surviving sub zero camping trips in the snow, or trekking for days at 14,000 ft elevation in 40 mph winds...(as in back home and living my normal life) I smell like Armani, Versace, Kenzo, or CK1

Woodsmoke from a campfire.

Other than a whiff of Old Spice deodorant, I see no need for man to smell like the Botanical Gardens. The comment on being able to recognize the normal odor of a clean man does apply. the Princess tells me that my son and I smell very much the same. I have not noticed this.

I don't use cologne...... Just keep myself clean!

Making yourself stink pretty? No thanks, I can't stand that the stench of that stuff.

I'm sure if you're going to roll around with the Mrs. for awhile, it's fine.

But I have everything from salesman to FedEx delivery guys visit my office and end up smelling up the place for hours. A little dab will do ya, guys.

I dunno, when a guy walks into my office and he is wearing cologne, I know he is going to try to sell me something.

Guys should simply smell clean.

Personally I like the smell of "Goop" hand cleaner. "Mystery oil" is kind of mysterous and spicy. It gets a definite thumbs up as well. With those, at least I know a guy knows how to actually work.

We women are way suspicious of guys who wear cologne which is strong enough for us to be conciously aware of it.

When in doubt: Don't. We privately ridicule guys who noticeably wear "loud" cologne.

It's usually Hoppes #9, but when I gotta impress the ladies, Hugo Dark Blue:

I use a bar of Lava soap on my manly hide and Gojo in my manly mane.

When I am done, I make sure to go out into the garage and get some engine crud under my fingernails.

I think a man that smells nice is a great thing. Not too much, but noticeable when you get close to him. Eternity, Cool Water, CK1...love them. Grrrrrrr.....

I like Burberry in general. But it is not always a good thing to smell plaid.

I don't really like when a man wears cologne.

Lagerfeld... "original"

Chicks get wet when they smell it..

A girl friend bought me a bottle for Christmas... after a few weeks, she said she was
stupid to have bouht me that.. cause eveywhere we went the chicks were commenting on how good I smelled ...

My own blend of witch hazel and whatever aftershave I feel like using for a year or so.

About 5:1 witch hazel to aftershave. Light scent, doubles as aftershave, and I have yet to spend as much on it as on a single bottle of Teh Ghey or whatever men's perfume is "in" now.

Hey, everyone, does the poll display properly? From where I'm at, it looked screwy and didn't show ANY results until I voted myself. Now I see results, but it still looks screwy and I don't thing there's anyway to "EDIT" to see if it's the way I entered the selections......

M7 or Obsession, when I wear it.

I DO like the smell of the lanolin in Gojo hand cleaner though.

As to colognes, I have Drakkar Noir and Caswell-Massey No. 6 (reportedly George Washington's favorite fragrance), as well as No. 6 aftershave and some Bay Rhum aftershave. I rarely use them, but I do occasionally.

However, my favorite is L'Arfcomme 'Les Scrutins de Cinq-Question Ne Fonctionnent Pas' Eau du Cologne pour Hommes.
