Nautica Competition (new) by Nautica

Like everyone else says, a good simple clean scent for daytime wear.

Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme by Dolce & Gabbana

The tobacco is definately the signature scent. The citrus is overpowered by the sweeter notes. Good with a cigar, since the smoke enhances rather than competes with the cologne.

D&G Masculine by Dolce & Gabbana

It's funny, but the first scents I noticed were the "cooking spice" middle notes. It was an interesting smell, but not entirely great. After about a half hour, though, it matured nicely into something I might wear for a night out.

Acqua di Giņ pour Homme by Giorgio Armani

A light refreshing daytime scent. I enjoyed it, but, like Cool Water, it is far too popular / common.

Roma Uomo by Laura Biagiotti

Bought it because I was experimenting with colognes like Minotaur. The initial scent was very nice, but it got a bit too sweet for me after about an hour. It is like Minotaur, but I wouldn't choose it over Minotaur.

Romance Silver Men by Ralph Lauren

The best review I can give are the comments I've gotten from my female friends. "It smells nice, like something a gay man would wear." "Ooh, I like it. Can I borrow it?" "Are you sure it's a man's cologne?"
A quick double check of the label proved that it was, but the scent doesn't exactly say "masculine."

Minotaure by Paloma Picasso

I've always enjoyed Minotaur as an evening scent. I've known a couple of people who thought it seemed a little too formal or that it had a bit of a heavy alcohol smell. Seems to do the trick in a suit and tie, though.

Armani Code / Black Code by Giorgio Armani

A simple scent that is masculine and modern.

Navigator by Dana

Navigator starts off with a very fresh scent with masculine tones, like stepping out of the shower at the gym. However, after about thirty minutes the tone continued to sharpen with an almost chemical tang.

Vendetta pour Homme by Valentino

I agree with several parts of the other reviews. It is definately a potent, spicey, incense-like brew. Almost a blast from the 70's and sure to make you stand out. Not sure if that's a good thing, the way this smells. It is very easy to overdo it with Vendetta.

Safari for Men by Ralph Lauren

Definately masculine and classic smelling. Reminds me somewhat of Aramis. Too "old" scented for my tastes, however.
