I ALWAYS wear cologne and since you have never chastised me I'm going to assume that I am applying the correct amount.

The key is finding something that reacts well with your natural scent. You don't want to cover up your scent, you accentuate it. Ask your broad for help, give her something to do.

These folks that are sousing themselves with cologne seem to have it confused with deodorant or some olfactory camouflage.

If you think you smell take a shower. If you fear that you still smell and may require a gallon of nasal-stinging pungent cologne, see a doctor. Medical or psychological. You'll know which.

Lately I've been liking the Marc Jacobs.

Does it smell like come to you?

Cologne - never saw the point. Crap? I don't know if I feel that strongly about it.

on rare occasions (5 times a year tops) i have been known to apply a little Armani cologne. The finishing touch for a holiday party get up - shined shoes, new tie, clean suit, fresh hanky, etc. It has a very light slightly citrusy smell. I like it. My wife likes it.

not crap in tiny doses.

Really? I've never noticed this. Alright, maybe a hint up close. Have no fear, I would not hesitate to bust your balls if you smelled of anything. I tell people at work that they stink right to their smelly faces. You smell terrific, my friend. You've got it down and you continue to lay it down. You can really rock it out. Rock over London, rock on Chicago, Wheaties: Breakfast of Champions.

I've been using this Arm and Hammer powder-scent deodorant. I walk around smelling like baby powder all day. It just might be the least obnoxious scent on the planet earth.

That shit does smell fucking awful.

I read once that women who are outgoing prefer a musky/"masculine"/AXE-type smell whereas women that are more reserved prefer a fruity/brighter/soap scent. I don't know how true this is.

On occasion, I like putting on some l'Instant de Guerlain, one of the nicer things that my ex introduced me too. I have no idea whether this fragrance constitutes cologne or just general male flouncy frippery. I enjoy getting fancy stinky now and again, along with putting on a disco shirt or a good suit, cufflinks, shoes with some shine, and generally getting smarter than my usual hedge-dragged self.

NOT CRAP.

If any of you tramps dare suggest that this is somehow unmanly, then I demand satisfaction.
