Dear Basenoters,
After reading through this forum many times, combing through articles directed at what chicks like / what gets the most compliments from chicks (With the provided stickies of course) and attempting to summarise the most agreed upon fragrance in each of those threads, only to realise that they were far too long, and mainly aimed at people quite a bit older than myself (Meaning, not many people my age are interested in the subtleties of fragrances afaik), so I decided I'd just ask the question and get an appropriate response. I'm fairly new to the fragrance scene, so all I can tell you is that I'm looking for a scent that would appeal to people in their late teens (Like me). As far as what I like, I've always liked the scent of rosemary, although I don't know how often it is used in colognes and how good it smells in one. I like natural scents a lot, moss, trees, woody scents, fresh air (If that's a scent), petrichor, citruses and leather (Not sure if that fits into the whole natural thing :P ). I think in fragrance terminology those would fit into aquatic-fresh and woods...? Although I wouldn't really know :P I thought that rather than asking everyone what cologne fits best with these, a top 5 would provide better comparison and freedom of choice for those who respond. And while I would be very happy for absolutely any responses posted on this thread, I was wondering if there was any basenoters in particular in their early 20's or late teens? Thanks in advance for reading this
EDIT: After thinking about it a little more, I realised I hadn't really based my above preferences on the scents I like, but rather the scents I had smelled in cologne on the people around me and liked, which significantly narrowed my viewpoint, as not many people around me wear cologne :P I'm really open to anything at the moment, as I develop my own preference...
