Guess The Fragrance: Let's Go Krogering Edition

post #1 of 20

Thread Starter 
Two days ago, I was shopping for groceries at the Kroger just down the street (aka Krogering).

While checking out, I asked the guy what fragrance he was wearing, as it smelled very good on him, and fit his personality. (I was wearing Narciso Rodriguez for Him that day, BTW.) But I want you guys (and gals) to guess it!

I'll only give three hints:
-An aquatic fragrance
-Not Acqua di Gio
-Not niche

No prizes here... just a bunch of fun!

Good idea for a game. Maybe if you described the guy a little bit?

He's a young, mid-height, skinny guy that looks like he's either in or fresh out of high school, wearing standard Kroger uniform (blue shirt, khakis, and Kroger name badge). He doesn't talk as much as some supermarket cashiers.

That being said, the scent in question is not GIT. And GIT is not only not an aquatic, but it's also considered niche.

Great guess from Zerby.

Not an aquatic, per se, but Cool Water? Or something from the Nautica line?

Back to square 1: The scent in question is an aquatic, but not niche, and not AdG.

Bvlgari Aqua? blue, doesn't talk much (bulgari being close to skin type scents) , young (2005), mig-height (ok, if you said short and fat, then I'd be 100% sure this was bul aqua,lol)

Hmmm. Ok. Thought of Aqva, but don't see that as being big with the HS crowd. Could be wrong though. TimothyX beat me to it anyway.

Next Guess: Boss Pure

Bvlgari Aqua was my first thought as well.

If not that... could it be Kenzo Pour Homme?

Alright, I'm also a mid-height, skinny supermarket cashier in college, so I'll throw out a few more which could be very close to correct.

Givenchy Pour Homme Blue Label
IZOD
Nautica Voyage

Keep guessing!

Since no one has guessed correctly yet, I'll throw out another hint: This scent is discussed often on Basenotes.

And I have to admit that it smelled and fit his personality great... BTW, I'm on the fence about getting a bottle of it for myself. Should I?

I'm surprised you could smell it since it doesn't last very long.....
