I use Royal Lyme almost exclusively. Excellent aftershave. Aramis now and then, if the occasion calls for it. Witch hazel if I don't want any scent.

My cologne is Kirkland body wash. :)

Irish Spring. Although I've switched to dove to reduce the scent when out hunting.

Whatever shower gel I got on sale. Currently its Komodo by Old Spice.

I have a dozen cologne bottles but I hate to wear the stuff.

I don't always wear cologne, but when I do, I make it Acqua De Gio.

Old Spice Swagger body wash most days.

Yeah, except many of the latest posts in this thread comment on soap. I don't mind no actual cologne, but deoderant and a reasonable familiarity with soap is definatly a good thing.

I don't wear any cologne, to many chemicals in it.

I don't use any. Not something I even really ever considered.

Cologne should be picked out by the Significant Other you wear it for, for best results. An ex-GF of mine was looking at some high-falutin' Dior scent, but while we were (literally) sniffing around, I found something on clearance (can't remember) that got my pulse going. $70 versus $15, not to mention the... er, "positive" response from me, made that decision easy. She even once had on some Chanel No.5, but whatever that on-sale stuff was, it never failed.

For myself. it's either Givenchi Pi, which was a gift a few years back and smells like overly-sweet vanilla with a hint of musk and I dislike but wear anyway; or Inis (another gift) that is a bit pine-y and actually kinda refreshing.

If it were up to me, and money no object, I would go with Truefitt and Hill's Trafalgar. Like Davidoff Cool Water, but cleaner.

My natural manly scent. Drives the wimmins' wild. Or away. Or something. Also great for preparing surfaces before repainting.

Dollar General knockoff of Irish Spring shower gel....I like the smell...my wife likes the smell....don't really care what other women think.....and guys don't notice anyway.....

geronimotwo · « **Reply #16 on:** April 11, 2012, 07:46:41 AM »

no cologne, as a lot of fragrences and my nose don't get along, but my old spice deodorant seems strong enough.

Tuco · « **Reply #17 on:** April 11, 2012, 08:56:56 AM »

tuna sandwich, garlic stuffed olives, and a two dollar cigar.

Note to self: never stand downwind of Tuco...

I'm pretty particular about scents. Can't tolerate any Old Spice product, to the point it turns my stomach. I'd far rather just smell clean skin (or soap) than cologne on a man.

Same here. I find most of the commercial synthetic scents to be obnoxous and irratating and so have worked to eliminate them from my home. Body soap, laundry detergent and the like are all color and perfume free for the past 10+ years.

Mrs. fistful likes Irish Spring soap and Irish Spring deodorant on moi. And she's not even Irish.

Stetson. Have tried all the fancy ones and this works best. When out Dear hunting, this is best, for ME.
