If you don't like my previous recommendations:

No verdict yet. 🙁 I don't think I have enough money to buy cologne right now. I have like $43.

Hey, thanks for the link! I wonder if I could go smell them all in a department store and then leave without buying anything, and just buy online. 😛

Ask Mill. He'll have a few opinions on that for you...

Yeah, too bad this thread predates that one. You can't smell my cologne unless you're all up ons, and unless you're female, you shouldn't be. 😛

Remember! Spray, delay, and walk away.

I usually go with Eternity, Obssession, or CK One. But, this year my fiancee got me some Chrome. It smells real good. All her friends and my female friends love it.

I too, have Chrome. Reminds me a lot of my first cologne - CK One
 
I can't believe NOBODY named Issey Miyake. A female I know brought it up to me last year, so I went to Nordstroms to find out what she was fussing about. Absolutly wonderful smelling, it's very strong but doesn't overpower. Also it's not flowery or spicy (I hate those kinda sents) Oh, and it laaaaasts.

I bought some Ralph Lauren "Silver" (Romance?) today @ Macy's. It has a very clean, light, Citrisy sent to it. Dunno how it's gonna smell on me, but in the store I loved it.

I was also suprised at how good the Swiss Army cologne is. I've only seen it @ Nordstroms.

I heard Crave (not Curve) is stunning. But only can be bought @ Sac's 5th and cost some rediclious amount.

Adidas Moves - UGH! this smells incredible, and you can buy it @ Walmart, very kick ass. It's not expensive at all, $20 bucks for the big 3.7 ounce bottle, it doesn't seem to hold it's sent long, but spray some on, and you'll get compliments.

Bath & Body Works - Canyon. They stopped making this (or I just can't find it @ at the stores out here) it's $20 a bottle, and when I wore it I'd get more compliments from it, then when I wore my Polo Sport, which is a great sent.

I suggest all men get a bottle of Issey, that stuff is seriously some of the best out there. When I started wearing it, I had females coming up sniffing on me like Hound dogs. I got tons of compliments whenever I wore it.

Target has a pretty good fragrance section now. They don't have any sets, but you can get Cool Water, Chrome and some of the higher up names, for a decent price. I saw Chrome there for 35 a bottle, it's 45 everywhere else. They also have the Stetson types for the cheap bastard who's stuck in the mid 80's, and think females are turned on by a dude who smells like sleeze.
 
Get some Kenneth Cole New York! Its smells great and the women love it!

The mother of one of my good friends is one of the top fragrance sellers here locally, and she always hooks me up with samples/testers/etc. Some of my favorites are Curve, Hugo Boss, & Nautica Latitude/Longitude, but the Kenneth Cole is awesome! I only have a sampler of it, so I save it for special occasions 😉

You're right, Issey is good stuff. My bro used to sell that off-brand cologne stuff and he gave me a bottle of Missy Iyake or whatever the generic name was and I ended up buying the real thing.
 
Aqua Di Gio...

though you end up smelling like everyone else ;-)
i dont care still my favorite

cool water is nice to and curve
 
I use Romance by Ralph Lauren right now.
I'm getting Touch by Burberry next.
I like Issey Miyake too, but I think it's a little too strong
 
Different scents, different people...

personally like polo sport, drakkar (yeah yeah..), cool water, paul sebastian
 
If you can afford it: Creed

Its the French brand major celebrities wear. It really has a unique and amazing scent.
 
Armani Aqua di Gio (best cologne ever)
Adidad Moves (as mentioned before, cheap and it smells awesome)
Aramis Cool
Eddie Bauer (adventurer or something)

I have quite a few others but I prob only keep them cuz my gf bought them for me...
