The Cologne Thread

[Eddie Teach]

Yeah, there were lots of other people there doing the same thing.

They were also into scent.

Actually maybe this is just mongers way of telling us he smells terrible.

Very possible for someone who squats in the woods to take a shit.

I use an odorless deodorant and when I feel fancy I use Fahrenheit.

Fahrenheit is my favourite on a chap, along with the Fahrenheit 32 variant.

Princesca smelled those the other day and declared them to be 'horrible'.

I have never understood why men wear Cologne.

They like to smell nice, some women really like it, and it shows that a person is willing to take that extra step to look (and smell) good, much like a good pair of leather shoes worn with a pair of jeans.

I love cologne on a man, so long as it's not too heavily perfumed or too strong smelling.

Good for you

Haven't tried the 32 version. I did like Tempore for a while but found it too sweet in the end.

Running low on Tom Ford Grey Vetiver, so I swung by Sephora today to smell some more colognes and see if I might want to make a change.

I came away liking Eros by Versace best but a lot of online reviews poo-poo it as an office scent, and come to think of it (I'm wearing it now) it does smell more like a 'date' cologne.

I also liked Bleu de Chanel, Gentlemen Only by Givenchy (I got a sampler of that last time I bought Grey Vetiver), and Only The Brave by Diesel.

Thoughts, other than "you're a giant faggot"?

[garbon]

Giant? Hardly.

[The Brain]

Nah.

[Monoriu]

Only soap and shampoo are allowed on my skin.

About to run out of Bleu de Chanel, so I'm rebooting the thread.

[Caliga]

I put Gentlemen Only on one wrist and then Issey Miyake on the other, and Princesca seems to prefer the Gentlemen Only wrist.

Chanel Antheus. It is very earthy, subtle, understated. I like it a lot and have been using it, almost exclusively, for the last decade at least.

D. uses Tom Ford, but I find it too ghey.
