I'm a
femme myself. Love how versatile and sweet it is and it really does go with everything. I always get compliments on how I smell so I guess it must work for me.
On a butch, I'm not terribly picky as long as they're:
a) clean
b) don't smell like my grandfather (Old Spice... do I have to say it?)
c) aren't doused in Axe like a teenage boy
That being said, my favourite cologne scent of all time has to be
Armani Mania for Men:
If there is one scent guaranteed to knock me off my feet, this is the one. I can always pick it out in a crowd and it makes my knees weak. It's kind of dark and musky, with an urban night time feel to it, but elegant and strong (in a good way). It's described on [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Mania-Giorgio-Armani-Toilette-Ounces/dp/B000C1UF3Y/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top"]Amazon[/ame] as "cedar, mandarin and amber, a mossy, masculine scent" and I'd have to agree.
I've recommended it to a number of friends, both men and butch, and they've all had success with it (however you define that...). Just sayin'.
I think if I saw even just an average looking butch (not that you aren't all handsome...
) walking down the street and caught a whiff of this when she walked by... said butch would have to beat me off with a bat. It's just... intoxicating.
Highly recommended!
