I like the new one Lux: Unbathed
:lol: :lol:
Amber: greasemonkey.
since you said "Cologne", I assume you mean mens cologne, of which I have no knowledge. I only know perfumes. I wear Noa right now. Like it.

^ Oh.My.God. :shocked: :laugh:
Wait, why am I shocked at anything that goes on around here any more? :laugh:
My favorite cologne? Hmmmm....there are some really nice Tommy ones that are just too expensive for me to buy. I generally stick with that Axe stuff. I found one that I really like, so I buy it now. :nod:

None.
Ever.
Fresh sweat is the only thing that works.
Okay - up to 4 hour old sweat works too. :laugh:

That could be a fragrance sold only in West Hollywood - Eau De Twink.
An intoxicating melange of hair products, crystal meth, and Marlboro Lights.

You know, I only jumped on the frangrance bandwagon this last year, too.
I had a few intermittent frangrances, but compared to most people I know - not so much with the frangrance.... :shrug: I mostly never had any...most girls I know have always had them, and cared about them, though. Hrm. :D I'm sure buying fragrances is very important.
I don't care much about fragrances either, actually, a lot of them just give me a headache. But when I came home from vacation, the smells coming from my backpack.. aye!! Oh, and my walking shoes.. (insert green smiley I'm too impatient to dig up)

I like Chanel Platinum Egoiste.
Wow, I feel like the only one who wears cologne...have since I was about 15. Maybe I just stink really bad without it! :laugh:
I've been wearing Burberry's Brit for the last few months....which I really like. Before that it was Kenneth Cole's Black. It's like a standard Christmas present from my parents that I get a new cologne each year.

None. I'm not a fan of any; they make me gag. Those guys who bathe in the **** make it seem like they're trying to cover up an unpleasant body odor.
I have peppermint in my closet and some of my clothes have a very slight minty smell to them, but that's about it.

I use Rodgers and Gallet soap. The fragrance is called Cherry Tomato. It's one of the best smells I've ever experienced. It actually smells like tomato but in a very, very good way. No, I don't smell like I came from a Heinz factory!
And I use a Pink Grapefruit fragrance. Not sure who makes it. Again, it smells good, not like I just came from a Tropicana factory!
Sometimes I wear Aveda's fragrances Love (hard to describe) or Equipoise (very citrusy, so good I could drink it!)
And I wear Lush deodorant that smells super good. Again it's hard to describe. Just a beautifully fresh fragrance. If I get compliments on my scent, I generally say, "Oh, it's totally my armpits!" :lol:
Man, I probably sound a friggin' fragrance counter. Jeez! Maybe I do! :lol:

I can't do synthetic fragrances. They give me a terrible headache. Any of the drugstore or perfume counter brands are generally synthetic. I usually have to whisk through the perfume counter in department stores really quickly.

Totally, I can't handle synthetic fragrances at all! Essential oil fragrances are amazing though. Aveda has a great line. :thumbsup:

I used to like Hugo Boss, but that **** is just too strong.
Now I wear Aramis Cool. Clean, fresh & very light.

Dolce & Gabbana Cologne for Men drives me crazy, yummy! I used to wear
Escape Perfume by Calvin Klein all the time, loved it. I'll let you in on my dirty little secret, everytime I go to the mall, I go to the perfume counter and act like I'm looking to buy some perfume and ask for some samples, you know those perfect sized little tubes (great for the purse), I now have about 25 of those little bottles in every brand and scent. It's great, I can wear something different every time and not be stuck with the same big expensive bottle of the same scent for months and it doesn't cost me a dime. :D

I've worn Acqua Di Gio by Armani for years and it's my signature scent, but I also wear Prada, Bond No. 9: Wall Street, Clean Men, Dolce & Gabbana, Escada Magnetism and Chanel Chance when I want to feel "purrty"...:)

isnt' it funny how a smell can make you think of someone??
there is this guy that I am in total lust with, and he wears Curve. MMmmmMM..at first, I didnt' like it. I thought he smelled like a stripper or something. But now, if I smell it, it reminds me of him. I had a patient come in wearing it..and I almost jumped on him right in the dental chair!! hahah..not quite..but I thought about it *L* anyway...I went to a department store to get a little "paper sample" of the cologne and that paper has gotten me in a lot of trouble lately *L*
the point of that was to also tell, I used to like cool water, but my ex boyfriend liked it and things ended very badly. Now the stuff makes me gag.
*L* so to make a long story short, my fav cologne RIGHT NOW is curve and as far as what I wear-clinique heart.

Victoria Secret's Vanilla Lace---I get more compliments when I wear that than anything I've ever worn. Allure by Chanel would probably be second. :thumbsup:

There are a few that I like right now. Hei by Alfred Sung, Dolce Gabanna, Polo Sport, and Curve. I also like Joop, but on other people. I don't like how it smells on me.

I love their stuff... there's a rumor that Freeze has been discontinued, but I'm still seeing it for sale.

Edit: Yeah, it's being discontinued... I need to start hoarding.

Not over here, basi homme is about 31 euros ($37) and the others are about the same. Dunno what it would cost in the states. basi and Loewe are spanish brands.

Oh ok. Actually those are a little less than over here. Hugo is like 50, Swiss Army is about 55, and Tommy is about 50 too.

Swiss Army is the best smelling Cologne I've ever had. It's not all musky and S**t, which I hate.

Estee Lauder's Intuition
also (y'all are officially allowed to laugh your asses off) I have the Celine Dion cologne, Notes
:eek: (Like you're all surprised!)
I had it bad for a lady who always wore Estee Lauder's Estee when I was in high school. It still makes me think of her. *sighs*

Its about $60 for the eau de toilette
http://store.nordstrom.com/category/cat_boutique-medium.asp?category=2377897~2377899~2380038~2380096&boutique=boucheron
It is fairly strong, so a bottle goes a long way.
