Men's Cologne: What You Like/Don't Like

My favorites are the subtle and delicious:

-Paul Sebastian

-Paco Rabanne

and the one that's perfect for summer:

-Vetiver

On the other hand, I can't stand Polo{#emotions_dlg.sneaky}, and never could. I always thought it had an oddly sharp and pungent smell. To make matters worse, it was a co-worker's favorite when it was introduced back in the 70s. He splashed that stuff on as if he had stock in the company. Yuck!

How about you?

Re: Men's Cologne: What You Like/Don't Like

I'm extremely fragrance sensitive, so I don't care for any men's cologne.

When I was in high school, back in the covered wagon days, my boyfriend wore Chanel for Men and it smelled terrific on him. I doubt they even still make it.


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Dior's Eau Sauvage.

I hate heavy, cloying scents.

I had to laugh when I read the o/p, because Polo, and all it's varieties, has always been my favorite.

However, as with perfume for women, a little goes A LONG way with me. Just enough that you can detect it up close. Smiley Happy

My grandfather used to use Old Spice, and he put so much on, my grandmother used to have to tell him to go easy on it. Lol

Let's call like it is..perfume since it's so sweet! =:0.

Men wearing scent breaks one of my 3 Cardinal Boyfriend Rules:

1. A man should never wear more jewelry than I do.
2. A man should never smell 'prettier' than I do.
3. A man should never be prettier than I am.
