Allure Homme Sport Cologne by Chanel

Smells lemony at first - true, but it turns into a subtle yet sharp and sporty fresh cologne real quick. Reminds me of Allure sport in the silver bottle but with a fresher take and more identifiable citrus. Not as sickeningly sweet as many other colognes.
A great and sporty scent. Reminds me of D&G Light Blue but sharper and more energetic.
Great alternative to the overdone Aqua Di Gio.
Exclusivity comes at a price though, and this stuff is not cheap but in my opinion, worth it.

Deseo for Men by Jennifer Lopez

I liked this scent a whole bunch at first smell but then I bought it and started wearing it everywhere and got sick of it kinda quick. It is very strong and the sweetness is addictive but becomes too much after a while. The sweetness is countered by a strong scent of woods. It is a youthful scent and and very addictive but it is very strong. Colognes should be subtle, enough to where you can smell it but not get a headache. This is by no means a subtle scent and with the sharp sweet and woody scents, it may be too much to bear. On the other hand, the scent has great staying power and requires only 1 spray to last the night. My advice, start out with a small bottle.

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue pour Homme by Dolce & Gabbana

I dont know what everyone else is talking about. Light Blue is terrific. It is light and fresh enough and there is no mistake that this is a masculine scent. It is amazing. I like the original D&G for men but it isnt me, perhaps because I love Fresh and aquatic scents. Then I thought that Light Blue would be too soft and could only really be used on specific occasions where like during the summer or only for casual events....but no, this cologne is good for any and every occasion.

some colognes that I like such as Kenneth Cole Reaction and Calvins Euphoria are nice but are either too fruity or too soft. and despite the fresh and energetic or soft and suede-like aspects of those colognes, it does not also have that hard edge masculinity that the oriental/spicy scents seem to imply. This is a terrific exception, it is fresh, sweet and with just enough citrus (energy) to appeal to the chicks who dig that sort of smell, it finishes with a sleu of other notes to make the person wearing this cologne feel that they can be taken seriously as well.
So if you like light and fresh but feel that you want to be taken more seriously than the guy who wears the light and fresh colognes, this one is for you.
GREAT JOB D&G!

Style In Play by Lacoste

This fragrance is exotic and unique. It is fruity and energetic but does have a hint of woods at the end. It isnt for a formal event but rather casual nights out. It is sexy in an exotic way but not as romantic as perhaps armani black code.
It is invigorating at first and dries down nicely but doesnt fade away so quick.
Holds its scent
Exotic, fresh, fruity intro and hint of woods.
Unique.
Geared towards younger males.

Polo Explorer by Ralph Lauren

This is very similar to the original Polo in the green bottle but with a big hint of sport.
It something that a younger crowd can wear and isnt as strong in-your-face old-man as the original.
The intro definitley starts out like the original and soon is taken over with new additions that add energy.
Smells great!
