I am looking for a cologne to wear to class every day. I currently have Fierce but i am looking for something else like Boss bottled or if i just used one spray of 1 Million would that work too? Also how much should i wear of these colognes I'm 5'6'' if that makes any difference. Thanks

Burberry London might work for you.

I dont think 1 million is good fragrance to wear everyday at class. You should try light blue by d&g, it's a citrus aromatic fragrance

Givenchy Play Intense, Rochas Man, YSL L'homme, Jordan Legend

I do one spray with most of my fragrances. I do not need people smelling me from more than a few feet away. I spray at the base of my neck, rather close, and if i need another, I spray on my chest.

Boss Bottled was gonna be my first choice. It's great for fall and winter for all ages.

I also second Rochas Man and Michael Jordan Legend.

I will also toss in CK One Shock for Men.

High school kid here. I really like Boss Bottled but find I get sick of it if I wear it for more than a couple of days. If you are looking to wear it almost every day I would recommend Dolce and Gabanna The One, Rochas Man or London. I wear one spray of one million to school sometimes and it works just fine. The trick is to spray on your wrist and spread it to your neck from there. Also this is more of my personal preference but I really like wearing La Nuit de L'Homme to school (Two sprays are ok for this one).

No way, La Nuit de L'Homme is a clubbing sexy scent..not for school environment in my opinion. Def for a close encounter...

There is no such thing as a safe blind buy unless a. you don't care about money, and b. you don't care about smell. In which case this question scarcely matters. Can you not get to a mall at some point and smell which you like better at least? There's no need to wear cologne just to wear cologne.
