the night out cologne..

Thread Starter 
It's summer, you've got a hot date in the evening, dinner and dancing, you want to promote yourself as a fun and interesting person who likes to take charge. You've just put on your designer jeans, ferragamo shoes and a crisp shirt. You don't want to smell like a guido or 80's icon. You want to appear fresh, clean cut... but mysterious.

What scent do you wear?

Two equally good choices:

Chanel Egoiste: Sweet, spicy sandalwood. It's sophisticated, and mysterious at the same time -- nothing quite like it.
Herrera For Men: It's known to cause the female of the species to want to hug the wearer. Beware!

I second the Herrera for Men.
Very versatile fragrance - will smell even better as you warm up on the dance floor.
IMHO it's what Paco XS should have been.

Scent intense by Costume National has all the mystery you need. Czech & Speake no.88 would provide the ultimate mystery...

If you want to seem romantic, then I would go with Gucci Envy.

If you want to seem fun, then I would go with A*men.

If you want to seem mysterious, then I would go with Passage d'Enfer.

There are so many scents and so many occasions to wear them.

No offense, but sounds like a job for Aqua di Gio or Armani's Code to me.

M7 is one of my favorite scents... but in the summer, I can only imagine how putting off it may seem. On the other hand, M7 fresh.....

Though I myself don't like it very much, for your definiton Bulgari Blu would be an appropriate choice.

Fresh, clean cut...Green Irish Tweed and KenzoAir....
....mysterious....maybe some Allure Homme, Body Kouros or Passage d'Enfer.....not too overpowering (ala AMen or JPG) but seductive.....
I still find GIT to be a winner,
Enjoy,
Sarjeet
