I think I did a thread on this once before, years ago, but I'm too lazy to check.

What brand(s) of perfume or cologne do you people wear?

For the last 4 or 5 years I've worn Burberry for Men, but just switched the other week to Stampede (forget who makes it).

Ogallala Bay Rum Sage and Cedar is my preferred, but I stock five of their varieties regularly.  Also, Cool Water by Davidoff.

None, I smell of me.  :bowler:

I smell how a man should smell. Old Spice.

I have my own original stink.  I've been trying to patent it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I used to wear this also, but Princesca made me stop because one of her old boyfriends wore it.  I was like "ummm... so?" :hmm:

Sulphur with a hint of brimstone.

Or Aqua di Gio by Armani when among people.

Almost exclusively these days Chanel Antheus (the red one). Boyo prefers to wear Chanel Egoiste (black) or Yves Saint Laurent's La Nuit d'Homme (sp). Just brought him a bottle of the latter from Amsterdam.

Remind me to always smell opposite of the wind direction from you. I hate people who do not use perfume.

Curve cologne by Liz Claiborne.  My sister got some for me for a Christmas present when I was... a freshman in college?  I've been using it ever since.  I use Old Spice Swagger spray/deodorant on other areas though.

I like what I'm wearing now, but man I do miss Cool Water. :hmm:

I use to wear "[Our version of] Cool Water" from the dollar store in high school.   :blush:   Mainly in a vain attempt to hide the cigarette smell from my folks.   :sleep:

I wore Drakkar Noir for a while after I found a big package of it wrapped up as a Christmas present for me that my grandmother, suffering from Alzheimer's forgot to give me...    :(

Had a bad experience with Drakkar around the first time I got really stoned in college and started panicking that everyone could smell the weed on me, so I completely soaked myself in Drakkar before going to a concert, then got really self-conscious about the massive Drakkar odor and started using snow to try to get it off of me.   :blush:  It's a hell of a drug, Drakkar.

I was given some Yves Saint-Laurent Rive Gauche (Pour Homme) by an ex-girlfriend who was really into scents (I used to work across the street from a big scent testing facility in Philadelphia, Monell; they have a huge gold modernist statute of a nose outside their building  :D), and I've been using it ever since, so about 5-6 years.  Used a couple different ones when I ran out (some English Leather  :yucky: and I think a tiny bottle of that David Beckham one), but I really like my YSL.  :frog:  Now I just use unscented antiperspirant + a splash of cologne instead of that nasty Speed Stick.

I occasionally use a bit of aftershave, but very rarely, and very little. I have a weak nose, so if I can smell your cologne stank, well it's stanky. (which is a cross between stink and skank)
