Just joined the forums....help! lol
I remember when Eternity, Obsession, Escape, Cool Water, and most of the 90's colognes came out, so I know I'm showing my age. lol 35.
I am in search for an overall good cologne. I have as of now have: L'eau d'issey, HUGO by Hugo Boss, CK Be, and Tommy, by T.Hilfiger. Getting tired of Miyake, and Tommy, Be is nice.
I used to have Aqua Di Gio, now that one I HAVE to get again; however, my wife loves HUGO! She says thats a Man's scent (manly) lol. Got that one.
I went and got an online list of supposed great scents, went to Macy's and had them spritz each card, brought them home (like 12 swatches lol) and I made my favorites, wrote em down and then later my wife made her list.
Angel( too strong and it smells like no other!), the 2 Boucheron colognes(smelled feminine powdery), DKNY (too apple-ly), Unforgivable (very different) I'm still out on that one, Chrome were all on the bottom and the top 3? The new BOSS Selection, ONYX, and R.S.V.P by Kenneth Cole.
I liked ONYX at first but it dried and faded into a scent that reminded me of that "Old lady" annisette perfume, weird when it dries and fades it should really be smelled. L'eau D'issey is the same way, but its good! Goes on strong (different)yet it smells AWESOME like 4 to 8 hours later.
My question if you lady's can help is if I like soft, light but NOT fruity or HEAVY cologne (more woodsy)what cologne should I look for? I have a theory that "Sport" colognes may be the thing for me, (Polo, , etc.etc.).
Now I loved DRAKKAR when it came out and I think if you wear that now it will actually be BETTER than when it came out cause it's like nothing else out there now! Weird.
I haven't picked any new cologne out yet but I would like to get Aqua Di Gio and 3 NEW scents.
A good example is ESCAPE for Men...that I do not like. Anything with those ingredients I dont think I'll like. No abundance of flowers or flowery smell.
What are the top 10 in your O.P???
