The only bottle I ever owned was bought for me by my last girlfriend because she liked it. I wore it on fairly rare occasions.

Then, I gave my roommate permission to use it and the bottle was rapidly consumed - he usually coated himself with something, to the point where I'd come home hours after he left and could smell it before even getting into the apartment.

I still have the bottle with a tiny amount remaining but don't remember the last time I used it.

Ahhh, it was a doofy pick. That's why it smells gross. :rolleyes:


Guys shouldn't wear cologne, just deodorant. That's my opinion for this poll.

Ding Ding Ding!! Da Winner!!!!

Cologne is lame. You have a better chance of offending someone (or maybe giving them an allergic reaction - now that's hot! :rolleyes: ) than you do of actually attracting someone worthwhile.

And any chick who is interested in some dude but can't think of any lines beyond "What are you wearing?" is also lame and should be touched only with a hazardous materials suit.

Just clean yourself and stop subjecting the world to your nasty store-bought funk.

While I don't show the restraint here when posting, I do show restraint when wearing cologne.

I have enough problems trying to degrease my fingernails and making sure I'm not bleeding somewhere.

Went on a date once and scratched a bug bite behind my ear, I guess I have thin blood because it bled all down the side of my neck. Never noticed it until I went to te pisser.

Bwaahahahaha, "Contradiction," that is hilarious:

"Contradiction. For the enigma in your life who is unable to figure out regular hygiene but perfectly capable of being duped into dropping mad coin on stinky rubbing alcohol."

I dunno I never use the stuff but girls have commented that I smell nice. Just the regular shampoo and deodorant is enough I guess for me at least.

Wow....there's a lot of chest thumping and "I'm too much of a man to need to smell like anything but motor oil and grease."

We have a room full of people with grapefruits for balls apparently. :rolleyes:

I wear myself some Smells Goods.

Its funny. I have never thought about it actually.
Somebody always gets me some for Chirstmas,
even though I never ask for it or buy it for myself.
It has to smell clean and light. I can't stand that sweet smelling strong crap.

well this goes to show how things can be the opposite in different parts of the world...

Around here most people use perfumes, guys and gals. It's not to disguise the bodily odor, since personal hygiene is somewhat considered a requirement, and it's rare to meet anyone soaking on the stuff.

I don't know, it's really strange to read all this "I'd prefer to be roundhouse-kicked by Chuck Norris than to wear cologne"... around here the answer would be... "dude... why?"

So yeah I use colognes/perfumes, I give it to gfs as an easy forgot-I-had-to-buy-her-something present, and every birthday/christmas/etc I usually get it too :cool:

from my limited experience, different regions of europe have different interpretations of 'personal hygiene'. :)

We just like to get the Septic Metros riled up from time to time. They always seem to go for the bait, oddly enough. :think: :D

Jesus Christ, are you guys bathing in it? It's supposed to be subtle ya know?

You guys can cap on my cologne all you want, but when my lady snuggles up to me, kissing me on my neck and saying I smell good, well, you guys can all go wank in the corner while I take care of business with my woman. :eviltongu

I think it's pretty simple really:

If you use cologne, you are an asshole.


Right?

Well, if you put it that way, how about:


"Are you man enough to wear women's panties?"

Or, "Are you man enough to put on lipstick and get sodomized?"

Oh man, thanks for that, I needed a laugh.

I am constantly assaulted with bad scents on the train, in the elevator, at the bar, etc., and without fail every time some dude walks around with cologne on, the women who matter will scrunch their noses, point and laugh at the dude behind his back.

If you want to be treated like those dudes from Night at the Roxie, go for it.
