I also change it up occasionally with some of those little like 10ml trial bottles that come in magazines or whatever.

surprised to see so many votes on not using cologne.
Every time I step out the door, ill put some on. except for throwing out the trash and getting the mail. I once worked at a place where I was the only male to wear cologne. On more than one occasion I had some of my female coworkers tell me, that I smelled good and jokingly told me to get the other guys to put some on.
What im trying to say, if you voted no and your looking to stick your dick in a vag, wearing can cologne help, ya stank fucks
Amen! I'm really shocked at how many people don't wear cologne. Even if you never sweat, you're still going to end up smelling like your house or laundry detergent. Cologne FTW.
my laundry detergent smells amazing :awe:
I shower in the morning, put on deoderant, and live in a smoke-free house... I've never seen the point in wearing cologne to the office, especially since 50% of the time I'm by myself and even during the other half of my week, I've never been close enough to my coworkers to smell them.

I'll use it very rarely. My favorite scent is patchouli oil, but I use commercial scents on occasion. I just put a little bit on my chest. It's like perfume; too much is too much. You just want a light scent that's only noticeable when people are very close to you. If they can smell you coming, you've used too much.

Acqua Di Gio reminds me of high school.
On topic, I used to... back when I had ladies I wanted to impress. Received a lot of compliments about smelling nice, too.
Nowadays, don't really care enough/no one in particular I care to impress. I just make sure I don't smell bad (shower, maybe deodorant depending on what I'm doing), and that's good enough for me.
Still have some (Acqua Di Gio & Corduroy) sitting on my shelf for rare occasions though.

I wear that cologne daily, I just ran out yesterday though. Picking up a bottle of Black Code tomorrow.

Is that the same as Armani Code? Or does Black Code smell any different?
I was thinking of getting Acqua Di Gio, but it's very generic as far as good smelling cologne is. :\

yes absolutely! while most guys have 1 or 2 bottles, ive got about 20. 5 for each season. its like anything else, you just have to do the research on the internet and find out what is the best of the best. its turned into a hobby for me as strange as that sounds, although its quite common. you can head over to www.basenotes.com to see what im talkin about. i categorize all fragrances in the under/over 25. under 25 tend to be more fruity, fresh, citrus type smelling, think cool water, hugo boss, eternity type stuff. while over 25 tends to be more woody, spicy type stuff, like burberry london and jean gaultier le male. agua di gio imo is too common.
i tend to keep track also of which gets the most compliments by women. i get a few every week. last one i got was at the grocery market some lady leaned in, sniffed me and asked if i just had gotten a haircut. also at the video store some chick walked by me and DEMANDED to know what fragrance i was wearing.
right now my fav is angel men. its got chocolate, coffe, tonkabean, mint and some other stuff in it. the smell is addicting and makes you smell as if you just walked out of a bakery.

What's that look like in our bathroom/dresser/wherever you keep it? An army of Cologne waiting to spray?
People will take you a bit more serious if you smell nicer. That means dates, job interviews, going out with friends, and even at work if your job doesn't involve getting dirty.

yep, 10 in each row
its a nice hobby cause you get to see reactions from people everytime you wear something different. not to mention i get a 'clean, fresh' feeling when im wearing it. ive got a running list going:
burberry london-6 comments
jean paul le male-5 comments
angel men-5 comments
paco rabanne one million-3
chanel allure -2
versace man eau fraiche(got it last week)-1
i mean i dont know about anyone else, but i love it when a woman walks by and is wearing a nice fragrance. well, its the same thing for women, except they like even more then men.
Totally! I love women who have a barely noticeable smell of perfume. It's so sexy

I spent several years overseas in a place where there is a big perfume culture (and they use perfume for men or women, cologne is a word they know not of). The best option is really perfume oil. Much more pure and lasts for years. Best point much much much cheaper than the perfume bottles in the stores. 1 oz of oil can be found for under $3 in a roll on bottle ( or $1.69 for a 1/3 oz bottle). And you can find just about any scent you want. I have been searching for a place to buy these in the states and I found one about a month back.

Pure oil will last longer but it is much less noticeable than standard perfume with a high concentration of alcohol (the alcohol makes the scent stronger due to increased evaporation which also makes the scent last for a shorter time).

Unless you include $2.50 Gillette after-shave, nope. I don't have a BO problem though, so a little deodorant and I'm good to go. As for picking up chicks, I don't need no stinkin cologne. You sweet smelling fucks enjoy shelling out the $$ for that scent. Natural pheremones FTW.

yup. Aqua Gio is amazing for that. Girls flip the fuck out when they smell it. I spray it on my neck, wrists, and a quick spritz on my chest...for later
