The "essence of sex"..... again:coolold:

So guys here we are again to talk about the sexiest colognes money can buy. For those who do not know here is a video of Grace Jones in the film Boomerang talking about the essence of sex as a fragrance.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LslwFRkUfG8


I want to use this concept again, to see what fragrance this time will be considered the sexiest. I will make it simpler we are going to do a tally up. Which will look like this: one guy will have this up to tally how many diff frags have come up and how many votes and the next guy will add on to that with his vote. I will start. You will vote for only 1 cologne, any cologne you want, first fragrance to 25 votes wins.


Example:
Le male 3 ( votes)
Acier alumium 1
Brut 2





Official Poll:


Tobacco Vanille Tom Ford 1

Hmm, I'm still in a bind between the same 2 as last time.. John Varvatos and Le Male. Being that Le Male is not only sexy as hell, but presents itself in sexual manner with its bottle/ads and follows through on the juice, which is something you don't see often. However, the last 2 times I wore John Varvatos, I got laid once, and I got a couple compliments the time before, lol. So.. it's a toss up here. Both of them are hard to wear this time of year though, so you can count getting laid based solely on what frag I'm wearing off the list.

As for the question though, I think I'm gonna go with John Varvatos. Le Male has had its time, Cuba Gold is just as good, if not better, and far less expensive. Too much stuff smells like Le Male now, but JV is not only sexy, but more distinctive. My only complaint is that it doesn't always project as much as I'd like it too.

My top sexiest fragrances are (in no particular order):
Le Male
John Varvatos
Lolita Lempicka
Noir de Noir
Bvlgari BLV
Burberry London
All of these are sexy to me.

But to pick one, it's gonna be the unique, intimate, and intriguing John Varvatos.

I'm sorry man I have been around a lot of women in the last year of my growing collection of fragrances and just from pure feedback I get all the time. Either Pure Malt or Musc Ravageur.... My vote goes to MR since it smells a bit more intimate.

And for those that have said the Original A*Men... Have you smelled Pure Malt before? Cuz I think majority of noses will agree Pure Malt is better than the original soooooooooo you might as well turn those votes to Pure Malt votes lol... j/p but just saying!

Based on the link provided in the original post, my input is narrowed down to only one choice (though not intended as a perfume):

Vulva Original (Viva Eros)

I can not confirm or deny obtaining two vials or having any interest in the alleged upcoming product, Vulva 18.
