EXTREMELY popular fragrances

Thread Starter 
I need a coupld of ideas of insanely popular fragrances for males and females from the ages of high school to middle age. The reason is I was going to buy some new cologne to be raffled off for a charity my debate team is hosting for Project Peanut Butter (more info/if you would like to contribute go here: http://community.basenotes.net/showthread.php?t=187466). I need some suggestions for what I should buy.

Thanks guys in advance.

I am afraid I am not a compatriot so my views might be a little off, but here they are for what it's worth:

Aqua di Gio, Cool water, Kenzo homme, Armani black code, Le Male, Boss scents (for some unfathomable reason...): for boys/young men

Light blue, J'adore, Angel, Coco mlle, Brit, Falling in love (from what I hear, it's by Philosophy), Happy, Pink Sugar, Euphoria: for girls/young women

  • Gender:
I used to sell frags in a dept. store. THE MOST popular were:
Men: Acqua di Gio, D&G Pour Homme, Vera Wang

Women: D&G Light Blue
young women (teens): Gucci Envy Me, Escada Rockin Rio

You're probably better off staying away from orientals and going for the lighter stuff.

Your bidding public will probably attach value to Axe/Lynx smelly products too.

Paris Hilton's line of fragrances.

EDIT: add P. Diddy's stuff as well.
EDIT2: David Beckham's also (only if your raffle/giveaway is outside of the USA - Beckham . . . who's that?)

I agree w/ the CK one & CK be options. They've been very popular for a decade, and suitable for both guys & gals.

hahaha this is true. however, i would more think - Beckham... he sucks. He's basically Riquelme without the dribbling/passing/leadership skills.

Thanks for the responses guys, I think I will pick some of these items and they will make great prizes for the raffles.

Also due to the fact that he was crying like a little boy on the sidelines in their final WC match a few months ago.
