not crap, when agreeable & subtle.

i think conscientious fashion objectors (like myself, most of the time) tend to overlook the uplifting effects of some of these things. like when you're feeling old, sometimes a haircut does indeed do the trick, & if you're feeling like you got "that smell" of being down, sometimes a little scent on your wrist really does make you feel different.

i wear a drop of patchouli/sweet orange room spray something like every other day.

That's the problem, it so rarely is. And even then, it's crap. I don't like hanging out with people that smell like magazine inserts.

Cologne is generally crap. Acceptable in rare instances and low doses. Whenever I smell a friend with to much cologne on, I ALWAYS breach the topic. "What the fuck is that smell? Who sprayed cologne? " I walk around all day thinking I can embarrass people into submission, but the human will is strong. (sigh)

Tv tells me that a drop of that Axe shit and bitches will part their legs like the Red Sea for your Moses.

Right. I can't say that I have this problem with friends, but I can remember many times when I still worked for May Department Stores, it was always some 'middle-aged' (or older) office worker woman who would get in the elevator and just completely deplete the breathable airspace with White Diamonds or some shit like that.

I would always try to give a good, audible "Whoh!", "What-the-f..?", "Got-Damn." etc. It was a bit of fun, and the other folks suffering in the elevator would always stifle a giggle and give me one of those "No he didn't!" type looks...

You'd like to think that it would somehow register with the person and that they might lower the dosage the next time around, but I doubt it.

Back on topic - I forgot to mention that this last time around (Valentine's Day) she got me a bottle of that scent currently being pedaled by Usher/Macy's.

It's not too bad, actually.

Drakar smells sickly sweet to me.

hahahahaha

The last time I wore cologne was in grade 4 (circa 1986). At the time I was obsessed with the Miami-Vice t.v. show and thought all the men on that show were uber-fucking cool... hence the cologne.
