Fierce for Men by Abercrombie & Fitch

Girls are absolutely in love with this scent, but almost EVERY guy has this, and the scent unmistakeably reminds you of the store, which leads to comments like this:

"Oh my God you smell like Abercrombie!"

Now I know I don't want people telling me I smell like their favorite store, but for some people that don't live by an Abercrombie store and this scent is uncommon, this would work very well. This smell is good, and the sillage and longetivity is amazing, but it is just too common for me.

Brit for Men by Burberry

My roommate used this cologne and it is the cologne that got me into fragrances. I never knew cologne could smell this delicious, and I always begged him to let me spray some on before I went out. This has an unmistakeable burst of ginger, and then it settles down to more vanilla like. I have gotten many complements from girls on this when I go to a party, but something tells me that this is a more formal scent. I am now using Diesel Fuel For Life as my going out scent and saving every drop of my Brit for that special event. Highly recommended if you want to impress a certain someone.

Reserve by Perry Ellis

This is such a happy outgoing scent! It just puts a smile on my face and makes me happy! Unfortunately it only lasts 2 hours on my skin so I have to spray it on my clothes. It is a good idea to buy the small 1 oz bottle so you can just carry it around with you and spray whenever needed. But out of all the fresh scents that I have put my nose to, this is definately the clear winner. If you are looking for a fresh scent definately put Perry Ellis Reserve on your list.

Eternity for Men by Calvin Klein

This smells like... GRAPE JUICE. YES.

Plus there is completely no trace of it on my skin 3 hours later. There are much better alternatives out there and I would not recommend this, unless you are into smelling like fruit punch. But for some reason women love this, and I do not know why, so I can't give this a thumbs down and I don't completely hate this.

Cool Water by Davidoff

I sprayed this on a card and it smelled amazing. Then I sprayed it on my skin and it smelled horrible! It doesn't smell fresh at all when it is on my skin, more like rotten celery. It makes me nausceous. The only great thing about this is the lasting power. You can spray this on and not have to worry about it lasting through the whole day and night. Girls love this too for some reason, but I want to love the scent I wear too. I can't give this a thumbs down because of it's success and the amount of bottles sold worldwide, but I am definately going to try to sell my 4.2 oz bottle that is about 92% used when I find another aquatic fresh smell to replace it.
