Definitely not... Also, stay away from Davidoff Cool Water, lol.

Oops. :) I don't know. I use Davidoff Cool Water Game in the summer occasionally and while it's a very strong sweet scent (can be overpowering), I use it in moderation and have gotten plenty of compliments on it.

Burberry London.

Actually, that's the original Burberry for men. Burberry London doesn't smell nearly as good, IMHO.

I don't use cologne but I use the scented deodorant sticks of the same cologne -- they are usually just a little lighter.

I use Chrome Azzoro & Dolce and Cabbana light blue -- right now.

I switch it up every few months with Dolce and Cabba (the original), Daffidolf cool water (when I feel nastalgic or stressed) <-- my dad used that one when I was younger and I find the smell to be relaxing when I can't focus -- since he was always very encouraging.

I use to use a lot of armani aqua de gio and armani code, and emporio armani -- but not my favourites anymore

my absolute favourite, and the next one I'll get when I run out of the others is Versace eau franche

I generally look for very fresh smells that keep my smelling like I just go out of the shower. -- these tend to work really well with my body chemistry.

I don't want to be raped :(
Aero- A87 (I use this most of the time)
LaCoste- Essential (when I want something different.)

I'm starting to run out of both though so I'll need more I might also pick up the American Eagle one. I like that too.

I took this picture for another thread, but I think it's still accurate...

I have, erm... Ralph Lauren Polo Double Black, Bvlgari pour Homme, Versace Blue Jeans, Kenzo pour Homme, and several small Givenchy vials... Pi, Xeryus Rouge, Insensé Ultramarine, pour Homme, and Givenchy Gentleman.

I'm intrigued that there are so many recommendations for Issey Miyake. I've always really liked Issey's fashion. Perhaps I need to try his scents next....

Actually, it is London because I can read it on the bottle. Definitely one of my favorite scents.

Tommy Hilfiger, Hugo Boss, Versace Blue Jeans and the ever classic CK One.
And a mostly unused bottle of FC UK (can't believe that's censored when put together) moisturiser thingy at the back. Never found much need for that. Depleted Hugo Boss hiding at the back.

Boss is my favourite and used when going out. Blue Jeans for friends. CK One and Hilfiger for when I meet the ol' girlfriend.

I'l post my collection later, its 11pm and I cba to get my camera out. But I had to throw this in:

I used to wear 'Joop!' It wasn't something I would have chosen myself, but it was a gift.

Girls loved it. I had some female friends actually request that I wear it and then proceeded to sit and smell my neck.

Not sure if this is true of all the ladies, some input would be nice. It may just be I have strange friends.:D
