Colognes . . .

[Archetype XLIV]

I'm an admitted frag-head and my wife has made my problem worse all the years we've been together because she loves fragrances as well. My collection is significant, but I find myself rotating: Versace Eros, La Nuit de L'homme, Acqua di Gio Profumo, Invictus, Bleu de Chanel, Chanel Allure Homme Sport, Parfums de Marly Pegases and tons of others.

I'm always looking for a good, new scent to try.

I’m a cologne whore too. It’s an addiction.

I like Creed and Tom Ford colognes. Aventus is my favorite, followed by Green Irish Tweed and Himalaya. Tom Ford Tuscan Leather is good, as well as tobacco vanille.

Anything by Le Labo is the correct answer. Santal 33 has been the biggest scent for years now, and rightfully so. But anything they create is unique and the best out there.

Love Santal 33? Here are 7 other Le Labo fragrances that are just as iconic

If you were thinking of upgrading your repertoire with new Le Labo fragrances, here are all the best (besides Santal 33) that you should try.

That looks like one of the bottles my barber had on the shelf when I was twelve years old.

I thought we had made it when my wife bought some of this stuff. Smells great. Then, I saw the price of it. For that price she is going to have to take one for the team andshe can go behind me and turn the exhaust fan on. I did use it as cologne a coupe of times. Makes a nice body spray.

We keep this in all of our bathrooms and it does really smell good.

The next best thing to the smell of my own cooking is masking it with this stuff when I'm done.

I use the stuff that came in that old glass Studebaker.

Neiman Marcus is having a nice sale. Picked up some more PDM.

300 bucks for 4 oz? I could get some sistersville weed at those prices

No wonder Huntington stinks. The poor can’t afford expensive cologne.

This thread reminded me of this:

It's an EDP. Much more concentrated than an EDT.

Unsurprising the outlet-shopping “music executive” thinks a hotel-grade fragrance is “the best out there.”

 

[greengeezer]

Doesn’t it all come down to personal preference?

This is where you continue to contradict yourself. "The best" doesn't mean it's the most expensive or most exclusive. We are talking about what smells the best.

Le Labo is the undisputed champ when it comes to being at the forefront of unique scents. Their scents stand out for all of the right reasons over even more expensive fragrances. "Hotel grade" based on them having one specific scent that is exclusive to a hotel is bastardizing the phrase, moron.

But hey - we all know those in West Virginia are the experts at finer things in life. I mean, you practically have a Le Labo store on every corner in and of the state.

You’re such a toolbag. Everyone else describes this SUBJECTIVE observation with “I like,” and “I wear,” and I prefer.” You, classically, have to show what a dork, try-hard, wannabe expert you are by claiming you know the objective truth.

You continue to publicly humiliate yourself.

I had a high school girlfriend that made me wear ?Curve and Calvin Klein (?one?). I can't remember exactly but I think that's right. I just did it because if I did what she told me to do I got to do lots of fun things with her. It turns out that is not a recipe for ultimate success.

Haven't put on a cologne since. My wife hates scented stuff. Thank goodness.

 

[MarshallManiac]

My wife bought me Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille because that's her favorite. I prefer the cheaper Art of Shaving Sandalwood and Cypress. Anything more than $50-60 is usually a "no thanks for me." Then again, I don't hate the aforementioned Pinaud Clubman aftershave lotion. I think it's the nostalgia of my dad taking me with him when we got hair cuts from a guy named Dan (Ferris maybe?) in Guyandotte when I was a kid.

My grandfather wore old spice after shave and it's just the best to get a whiff. Isn't it crazy how scents bring back memories?

Absolutely. Haircut day has always been one of my favorite things. If I had time I'd get my haircut every two weeks just for the barbershop experience. After my dad passed several years ago it means even more now. By the way....I'm pretty sure I have a bottle of Old Spice somewhere that I got for Christmas probably 25 years ago.

 

[greengeezer]

I some what believe the fragrance industry is just another “Emperor’s new clothes.” It reminds me of a cartoon I once saw where a guy in a lab coat was pouring beakers labeled sewer water, orange peels, and laundry detergent into a bottle with a $500 price sticker. The caption read, “They’ll really go for this!”

Dan Ferris was an awesome dude. Cut my (and my brother's) hair growing up as well!

Art of Shaving Sandalwood and Cypress.

One of the TJX stores had those exact candles a few years ago from Art of Shaving. They were in black containers. I grabbed a couple and liked them, but I think the candles ended up melting from being in the sun, so the wick was ruined.

Yes! His hypocrisy continues! This is great, so follow along . . .

First, no shit it's subjective. By me saying "there is only one correct answer," reasonable people know it's still an opinion, moron. It's like when somebody asks "who is the hottest celebrity": do people say "in my humble opinion, I realize that others may disagree, but I personally find Charlize Theron to be the most attractive to what I find appealing"? More likely, they will say "no doubt about it, Adriana Lima is the hottest fvcking celebrity."

Does that person realize it's their opinion and that they aren't the ultimate end-authority on it? Of course. It's the way people talk, moron.

But want to see the hilarious hypocrisy?

I don't care about Kanye's politics, but the guy is a genius. Probably the best hip-hop artist of all time.

Umm, "toolbag" (is this still 1998?), you didn't say "I think" before announcing Kanye as the best hip-hop artist of all time.

It’s just sad. You comb through posts trying to save yourself and it just backfires. Saying Kanye is “probably” the best rapper of all time could only be taken as a statement of fact by an absolute retard.

It’s too bad your boss wouldn’t allow you in his room to film his jewelry this time. You could have salvaged some dignity.

His dignity is going faster than his hair line

Is this the same "boss" that I "just had to have" as a co-founder of a company? Remember when you couldn't face that fact and were eaten up by it?

It’s too bad your boss wouldn’t allow you in his room to film his jewelry this time. You could have salvaged some dignity.

So my hypothetical boss wears a quarter-million of jewelry AND gave me the key to his hotel room? Interesting. So I was at the hotel for what reason, moron? You strike out more in your attempts than you do hitting on girls at the Huntington Y.

No kidding, I still keep several bottles of Aqua Velva on my side of the bathroom for after shaving. The scent is just nostalgic and the sole reason I use it is because of my own grandfather. It smells so fresh and I love the feeling of it after a shave.

It's like 4 bucks, LOL.

My high school go-to was Cool Water... Thanks to Snoop D-o-double g and the Doggystyle album. Probably still have some somewhere.
