I vote we change the title from "just thinkin'" to "just stinkin'"!   =D

Less is more, none is best!

Amen!!!

perfumes/colognes give me terrible headaches if I am in close proximity. If I am at all under the weather I start coughing uncontrollably if even exposed to a little cologne/perfume. In restaurants/nightclubs etc I have to move away from perfumes and colognes covered people.

I simply shower and prefer the unscented or natural soaps - but I do not have bad reactions to normal soaps.

I have a coworker from another location who shares my office with me a couple of days a month when he's in town. He wears more cologne than an old lady who douses herself in perfume in lieu of a bath. I literally cannot be in my office when he's here because the overpowering cologne smell gives me a headache. I always either find stuff to do somewhere else in the office or else take a telecommute day when he's here.

I'll have to try that!

A choice of Transmission Fluid, Brake Fluid, Motor Oil. Hoppes #9 on special occasions. Yeah, I'm manly like that.  =D
Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

Benchmark.  Been using it for years.  I buy it from a store in Indianapolis and they mail it to me.  $20.00.  Good for a year.  It's subtle manly smell.  I get many compliments from women including my wife.  It really smells good.

Oh jeez, just read the thread, and  you guys are going to laugh.

I've got a deoderant that smells like tea and cucumbers (honest.)   I like it in the morning.

When I do get the inclination, I have a bottle of Versace cologne that's been sitting in my room for a few years now and still hasn't spoiled. (Do they actually go bad?)

When I was 20 or so, my now-wife liked the smell of English Leather on me. (I liked the Brit woman in the commercial who said, "All my men wear English Leather, or they wear nothing at all").

The cologne thing didn't last long, though.

Pretty much. He told me one time that he keeps spare women's pajamas and swimsuits at his house (he has a pool) for "just in case".

I thought it might be a character from The Office, but the NBC logo on his jacket threw me.  Thanks.
