The walk through has got to be the most unmanly method. Do not do this.

Spray some on you, hit your arms, rub them together.

Just remember it comes in single use packages.

you guys got it all wrong.

spray right above your arm pit where your shoulder is on both sides.

when girls hug you, bam their nose hits it spot on.

LOL I just found a bottle of "musk for men", which I haven't worn since probably the late 70's or early 80's. :shocked:

I just don't throw much away, except old outdated computer parts.

i found an old bottle of some mennen brand "musk for men" in my med cabinet last nite. i havent worn any cologne for years, so its probably dated before marriage at least. i giggled, but didnt dare smell it...

when i did wear it, i put a bit on hand and smacked face. rub hands and done. it shouldnt enter a room before you do, or make people in line at a convenience store pass out from asphyxiation.

Wrong. The walk-through prevents uneven application. Doesn't matter how unmanly it looks, it's the best method.

Now, what about non-spray colognes?

Spray in air, walk through it. That way you don't have strong blotches on your neck :)

Cologne doesn't have to be all evenly applied. It's not rocket science. a spray to the front upper body and to your forearms should be enough, rub them together and maybe across the neck.

With splash on, pour a bit in the hands rub and apply.

On the blue moon nights that I wear cologne, I typically do 2 squirts under my shirt spraying it upward. At least that way, most of the 2 squirts remains on my body instead of dispersing into the air.

We should have a separate "how often do you wear cologne?" question. Do you people seriously wear it everyday? o_O

That's what I thought, I just spray once or twice in front of my body and I'm good to go. I thought given the great amt. of knowledge here in atot there was a 'better' way. Given the mixed response, I don't think so :)

And yes, I put it on everyday before I head out to work.

I usually do a spray on my chest and one on the back of my neck.....30-45 minutes before I make any contact with anyone... Of course, I'm married so this is tough.....if I do it last minute before we leave she always complains that I put too much on.

If the guys here are like many or my one idiot friend they over think everything when it comes to landing a chick.

If a chick is close enough that she can tell you have a 'hot spot' of fragrance...you already have her in bed or close to that. If she mentions it don't start going off on a tangent on how 'no I can't I do the walkthrough method'...she is going to think you are a chick. Blow it off and tell her you have something without cologne on it if it bothers her.

I have gotten alot of complements on my cologne, it's usually when the chick is right up on me though...not halfway across the room.

Right now I am wearing Fahrenheit...

Spray it directly into your open eyes then when you stop screaming spray some into your mouth.

One spray onto one wrist, rub wrists together, rub wrists on neck. That's it. IMO most of you wear waaay too much.

I have a hot woman apply it on me wherever she wants it on my body.

What, that doesn't work for you? :confused:

Doesn't your mom get a little wierded out?

Didn't you ask her when you took her back to the nursing home after you two went on your date? Well... perhaps you can ask her tonight. I hear you've got an all-nighter planned! :thumbsup::D
