Is A&F Fierce a "Unique" Cologne in College?

Thread Starter 
I know that A/F is VERY POPULAR with high school students TODAY, but was it as popular several years ago, (around 2003 - 2006) because I am going on my 3rd year in college and I have received compliments about that cologne. Is A/F "unique" in college, meaning that there is only a few (about 10 or so) people out of the thousands of men in college wear this cologne, or is this as popular as it would be in HS. I am OBVIOUSLY using this scent to target COLLEGE GIRLS.

Just my humble opinion (it's been 5 years since I was in college so I'm not positive). People stick with what works. I'm sure tons of guys that wore Fierce in high school and received tons of compliments from it, took it to college with them in hopes of receiving the same kind of attention. I'm sure it's much more popular than 10 or so people out of thousands. I still wear Curve to this day, 10 years after high school because it still gets compliments and I still enjoy the smell.

Only if you're going to university in Europe or in countries where no A&F stores exist.

Girls love Fierce. In fact I once asked a group of girls at a party what their favorite colognes were. 2 said Fierce and 1 said Curve. I happen to own both

Pretty much this. Nothing from A&F is rare at US universities.

It's about as unique as college kids in American Eagle hoodies. That being said, people tend to really like how it smells, and place a premium on what smells "nice" as opposed to what smells unique.

Nope.

Try Grey Flannel instead.

Not at all! As someone previously stated, it's very unique in Europe, but definitely not in the US.

Try Diesel Fuel for Life. That's way more uncommon.
