THIS IS MY FAVORITE SCENT ON FEMMES- IT DRIVES ME CRAZY- I CAN FIND IT IN A CROWD...
ORIGINS GINGER ESSENCE

TheMerryFairy · 02-02-2013, 01:38 AM

I really like the Nautica "competition" in the yellow bottle. I cringe at the name, but the smell is great. I know it might be "common" but honestly I don't spend enough time around people wearing cologne to know what's what.

MsTinkerbelly · 02-02-2013, 02:03 AM

Less is more...I've said before I'm sure.

In fact don't wear any and I'll be a happy woman.

sis · 02-02-2013, 06:00 AM

I have to agree with less is more .... even then, if my nose starts to tickle, I'll probably be sneezing soon after (allergies). Having said that, though it's been awhile, I do like the scent of cologne on my my date/partner.

I bought some david yurman for a close friend. (just friends) It smells great.

Cole610 · 08-11-2014, 07:18 PM

Back in the day CK Obsession for men. Currently, Swiss Army Classic, Diesel, AXE
Dark Temptations shower gel and pit stick.
After reading all these great posts I think Im going to check out, Acqua DiGio, Cool Water, Kenneth Cole Black and D&G

JDeere · 08-11-2014, 07:37 PM

CK Euphoria Intense, Cool Water or Any of the Stetson's but I am just partial!

Okiebug61 · 08-11-2014, 07:47 PM

I wear only essential oils that are 100% natural. Our skin is a sponge and all manufactured fragrances have ingredients that can cause side effects.

Peace

Femmadian · 08-15-2014, 07:23 AM

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!

Cole610 · 08-17-2014, 07:35 PM

I just picked up Jean Paul Gaultier "Le Male"
I love it, no feed back from anyone else yet . lol
It smells a little musky/vanilla and flowers. I would say its more unisex than just
for guys

CowboyInFlorida · 08-17-2014, 08:38 PM

I am very fond of the scent of zest soap... I don't require more

randrum · 01-27-2015, 07:51 AM

My "go-to" cologne is usually Acqua di Parma Essenza. But I've had a tough time finding it lately. So I switched to Bvlgari Pour Homme. It's nice, but I don't get as many comments on the scent as I did with the Essenza.

Shystonefem · 01-27-2015, 07:58 AM

I do not, normally, notice cologne unless it stinks.... BUT, a few weeks ago there was a cologne I loved souch, I asked the guy what it was... lol... Never did that before but I was thinking about presents for my sons. Armani...

Armani Mania!!! I love it. I think I swooned the first time I smelled it.

01-27-2015, 08:23 AM

My cheapy go-to for the last decade has been Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male. (came out in '95).
Because it reminded ex-mrs.d of her ex fella I stopped using it for a wee while and then because she said Dior Homme smelled spectacular on me that's what I changed over to. I always get 'you smell good' comments when wearing it. It's not half as common as JPG. Not surprising, it's twice the price too.

Now I'm back to JPG for daily squirts and Dior Homme for special squirts.

I can't smell, am totally anosmic, so I wear this stuff for other people and for the knowledge that I smell delicious.
I'm just as happy to not wear smelly stuff, I'm told I have a really good personal smell anyway...the universe making up for me not having a sense of smell mebbe?

I have to admit, it is the best cologne

Cailin · 01-27-2015, 10:32 AM

i like some weird smells...

i like drakkar noir, and yes, old spice...

but one that usually turns my head is polo sport type of scents. i can't handle anything too sweet or strong.

currently i have my significant other wear Kenneth Cole's "black"

for me, i'm more of a "halloween" person. i haven't found another perfume that i've stuck with.

I hope the butchies looking for a new scent to try are taking notes.

I've been informed, on numerous occasions, that 'smellies' smell different on each person due to their personal chemical thang and that something which smells good on one can smell rank on another. Is this not true?
