Cologne/Perfume

[colduser]

Who wears it? What are your favorites?

 

I typically love citrusy/clean/woodsy scents.

 

I am really into this Allure Homme Edition Blanche by Chanel

and this amazing Cedar scent from L'occitane

Bath and Body Works makes me so happy:nice:

Bleagh I hate when you girls use it too much its like breathing alcahol :disappointed:

 

My first memory of acknowledging perfume was being a kid at school, and for some reason this big clique of girls would wear this perfume that smelled like cold pepperoni pizza, it wasnt disgusting or foul I guess, just a really strange and mis-placed scent :stunned:

oh I love it

Men are worse, when a man wears too much aftershave it makes me feel sick

Just got to find the right scent. When a man wears shitty disgusting aftershave then is it nasty. When it is a nice smell, it is awesome!

[Space Cadet]

Bleauh! Don't wear too much of that stuff around me please unless you're prepared to call an ambulance if I stop breathing. :tongue:

 

The worst thing is with all these synthetic scents, that even when I don't react to them they all smell like bugspray to me. :sick:

[colduser]

 

oh I love it

 

I have not heard of this one. Sounds very nice though:nice:

 

"Top notes are black currant, ivy and fig; middle notes are paprika, floral notes, tangerine and peach; base notes are musk and vanilla."

 

Tasty!

If it's in small doses, it can definitely make a boy more attractive, it makes me want to follow him around. :P

Wtf, I don't understand people

[Reilly]

Im not trying to sound like Mr. Hetero but I rarely notice a guys aftershave, if hes poured gallons on himself and someone points it out then I do notice and its pretty sick.

 

I wear FCUK and Diesel and anything else relatives buy me each christmas (Big family, lots of deodorant and aftershave presents)

Just skip the aftershave. Most lightly scented shaving cremes or deodorants have just the right amount of smell and generally smell better anyway if you get the right one.

 

It's amazing how little too much it takes to go from yes please sit next to me to get within 10 feet and I'm calling the cops you icky freak. :laugh3:

I dont have a clue.

Diesel is great and I agree. I usually spray 5, 1 for each of my pulse points. I wear lighter smelling colognes and people never say it is too strong!

[crazyduckette]

I hate it when a guy wears a disgusting smelling cologne/perfume and too much of it, although those days seem to be back at school to be honest, when they didn't know how annoying it was.

 

A guy I knew recently used to smell incredible, I really wanted to find out what cologne he used out of interest :lol: It was great when I hugged him, hahahaha :uhoh:

 

The two perfumes I use Hugo Deep Red (love this!!) and Diesel 'zero plus feminine' that I was given once as a present and loved ever since. Ran out of Hugo, I only buy it at the airport haha.

Perfumes have really crap names don't they.

[MK]

Wtf, I don't understand people

 

Why did you say that?

[Space Cadet]

Wtf, I don't understand people

What's not to understand? When a guy smells nice it can be really powerful.

 

Hmm... how best to explain it? When a guy smells really clean and good and has just the right amount of just the right scent, it's a little like if a girl is wearing a very low-cut top without all the awkwardness of staring.

 

Of course the ones who smell best are always taken- I guess it's because their girlfriend picked out whatever they're wearing. Supposedly it has something to do with evolutionary biology...

Um... probably. It depends on what you're wearing. A good rule of thumb is that it should be noticeable within a few inches of you but less than a foot.

 

Strong is usually really sleezy.

As long as you're sure they're not just being polite...

But how am I supposed to get my nose more then a foot from my neck? :stunned: But doesnt that depend on the situation? If I was going out to try and find a random girl at a party or club surely Id want them to be able to smell my cologne, so a bit more then a foot would be preferable. If it was a pre-arranged date then Id already have her attention.

 

Aarons 5 sprays re-assure me that Im using about the right amount. And also if his friends are anything like mine, if I was stinking of collogne they'd be all over it with ridicule haha.

 

I have to say this is weird as Ive never really put much thought to cologne, and now Im getting all OCD and paranoid that Ive spent my whole life going about it all wrong :laugh2:

Reilly, it really does depend on the scent and its longevity. Some scents are just disgusting. Ask a trusted friend if it is too strong etc. I have asked many people and they assure me it is all good. They love the scents I wear. I am sure you are fine and you seem to like great scents so all is good!:)

Nice sexism, all I wanna do is look at boobs, dress badly and smell of sweat, FUCK YEAH

 

I just don't get how a fake odor that someone sprayed on themselves can make them endearing.

 

Or maybe I've just never smelled one that stood out to me.

Hit up Sephora and you will leave happy. Trust me.

edit: Scent is a powerful attractor to me. Can bring about a wide range of emotions in me.

I don't wear perfume, and I dislike having to smell other people's perfume/cologne.
