I've been using Boucheron for men, when I wear cologne, which isn't too often.  I usually don't use cologne for work due to the whole PC thing(Politically Correct- not wanting to offend someone).  The whole PC thing sucks....but that's another story.  I find that Boucheron is subtle.

The trick is to apply the right stuff, moderately, on the right places, for the right occasion...

I went and did some sniffing around and picked up the D&B and Eternity.... O0

I wear cologne on a daily basis & have somewhat of a variety from Ice Blue by Dolce & Gabana, Eternity, Nautica, & my new found fave is Polo...love the way it smells! It seems like almost everyday I receive comments from the ladies about how good I smell. I'm happily married but if you're not hitched & you're looking for some help with the ladies I'm sure his would help. JMO

I use aftershaves pretty much every day, but I'm not interested in anything that lasts all days so don't bother with colognes.

@ TyMoore, hello there.  What D&G did you get?  was it "The One?"  I have never tried any of the perfumes from this house but I have sniffed in the shops.  After using it for a few days, let us know what you think?  how is the longevity?

I have already started my own little collection and I intend to add one more at least every month or two.

March 2012

Some of the perfumes in my collection include:
Paco Rabanne – One million
JPG- Le male (Don’t care if it is extremely popular, I love it)
Hugo Boss Bottled Night
Carolina Herrera 212
Carolina Herrera - men
Chanel – Allure Pour Homme (Awesome juice!)
Aramis Life
Ted Lapidus – Pour Homme (Cheap, but a long-lasting clone of YSL – Kouros)

My next purchase will be Paco Rabanne, XS, “L Excess”)
After that it will be Givenchy – Play intense.
Then I might settle for some Azzaro Chrome

It never ends….


Nice list.
The Chanel,  Paco Rabanne, Givenchy and Azzaro Chrome definitely get a +1.
I would add: Gucci by Gucci Sport,  Bleu de Chanel, Chanel Allure Homme Sport too, Dolce&Gabbana the one For Men (their first version - brown box).
And not to forget about Davidoff - Champion and YSL - L'Homme

I love to use ultra-traditional and functional after shaves  -- like Pinaud-Clubman and various Bay Rums.

Hey there Andrei

I have had my eye on the D&G "The One" in the brown Box.  Gave it a test and loved it.

There are so many nice EDT's on the shelves, It is a rather expensive hobby but one which will keep me busy for a life time.

I find it addictive too, just like head shaving.

Me too Andrei.  Anything related to men's fragrance, men's grooming and shaving I enjoy thoroughly.  It is a little Hedonistic I know, but hey, thats just how I am.

I have a pretty large collection, although there aren't that many that I wear regularly.  For summer the ones I gravitate towards include:

Acqua di Gio, Armani
The One Sport, D&G
L'eau D'Issey, Issey Miyake
Fleur du Male, Gaultier
Light Blue (for her), D&G - this one is arguably unisex, and the women's is much better than the men's IMO\
Eternity Summer, CK

These are all clean and inoffensive and work well in the Texas heat.

Some that I don't wear as frequently but also love include:

Fahrenheit, by Dior
L'eau bleu D'Issey, by Issey Miyake
Armani Code and Armani Mania
212 Men, Carolina Herrera
L'Homme, YSL
Amber pour Homme, Prada
CK One (I LOVE this fragrance... but it lasts about 10 minutes on me =/ I often spray it on before bed or on my pillowcase)
