List your cologne collection

Thread Starter 
I just recently began to become interested in cologne about 3-4 months ago, and here is my little collection.

Lacoste pour Homme
Lacoste Essential
Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gio
Nautica (green bottle)
Curve
Vurt (from Pac Sun, smells like lime)
Inciter Intense (bought it from my cousin in Mexico, smells like fruit, specifically cherry)


which one of these would be an ideal cologne for winter.

I was also thinking about buying Burberry Brit. Any one like it?

I see that you are new... I am a newbie myself so this may be helpfull for you. See the bottle of perfume next to my screename? It is a link to my wardrobe where I have my fragrances listed. It is an interesting tool and you can chose somewhere on ur profile to display it or not. When you are looking at a review of any perfume just click add to your wardrobe and the next time yo visit it, the fragrances should be there.

I see that most of your colognes are in the fresh/summer side: Mostly citrics and aquatics, LpH a bit sweet. Burberry Brit is IMO more of a winter cologne than the rest of your collection. Read the reviews, people seem to like it. As for me, it is just too sweet and femenine when applied on my skin (Even more than the unisex fragrances I have (Paris Hilton Included) ). I kinda like the idea of my girlfriend wearing it though

Fresh, fruity, citrics, aquatic = summer.
Woody, Oriental, Too sweet (and gourmand IMO) = Winter.

Of those listed, the only one that has anything remotely to do with winter (by the standard definition of a "winter scent") is Lacoste Pour Homme with its edible and slightly woody basenotes. If you're looking for something else, I think Gucci Envy is a good place to start.

These two are very good suggestions. I would also add Gucci Pour Homme.
For winter, many of us like "heavier" scents, with woody, spicy notes. The
incense in Gucci Pour Homme is a nice addition to the woody accord.

Welcome aboard.

A few additional suggestions for winter that you should check out:

Angel B*men
Rochas Lui (similar to Gucci Pour Homme but less linear)
Michael Kors
