Also, I don't wear Cologne much because having unscented deodorant on hand is kind of inconvenient because it's difficult to find plus it's something extra to add to the shopping list but I do know this - aqua/watery smells for summer and woody/spicy smells for winter is the way to go. I've got some Calvin Klein and Burberry stuff around somewhere that I use for the occasional date that smell not horrible but I couldn't tell you specifics on what to get. Another thing is please for the love of crap don't just spray it on yourself. Spray it in front of yourself and walk through it, repeat once or twice more depending on the scent your using. Then dab a tiny amount on your neck and wrist with a cotton thingy. Done. You don't want people to smell you from a mile away and go "Oh shit, here comes Gregerson" or whatever.

Old Spice deodorant (original scent) is the closest I get.

If it smells like fish, it's a dish, if it smells like cologne, leave it alone.

didnt get the aftershave because i dont really shave

I used to like cool water. I heard Snoop mention it, and went to get some. It's....smooth...if a smell can be smooth. But I rather smell like me. I think I naturally smell good, girls smell me often...kinda like those AXE commercials. It always weirds me out. But lately Ive been buying deodorant from LUSH that people say makes me stink like patchouli but I don't smell it. I also like sandalwood oils. Smell like nag champa. I have some clove oil too but I think it makes me smell like a holiday ham.

dont u love it when people say no offense then just tear into you, as if saying no offense beforehand gives you permission to say anything you want without repercussions?
