Buy a bottle of Domain off of ebay. About $30 or so. It's a Mary Kay product, so you could buy from a saleswoman as well. Chicks dig it.

No cologne but I shave my head and face, I prefer old spice original aftershave.

Creed Virgin Island Water. A 1oz bottle will run you ~$155.

I get compliments all the time about it. This must be a great cologne if an ugly fat piece of crap like me can get a compliment...lol

I went to Nordstrom the other day with my wife and had nothing to do while she shopped.
I sniffed every cologne they had to see what I liked the most.
90% of them smelled identical.

The only one that stood out that I liked was A-Men.
I read the back and it said it had vanilla, smoke, wood and patchoulli scents.

See... This is what I warn people about, your nose can only take so much. After smelling the 10th bottle I'm pretty sure your brain was crying.

The citrusy aquatic (like Aqua di Gio) is massively overdone in the designer fragrance market. They're typically the least offensive to smell, but that also makes them the least complex. So they all smell similar and there's little distinguishing them apart for most people. But there's also olfactory overload. At Sephora, they have pots of coffee beans for you to smell. That sort of cleanses your palate and you can better distinguish the next cologne you sample.

Best brand is indeed Creed.

Expensive!!

Worn by top celebs and called the "Scent of Kings" since the royals wear it.

All I wear are Creed scents (5 bottles). And I get complements all the friggin time no matter what Creed scent I wear. It's insane how people complement me with it. They actually write down the product specs so they can buy it for their husbands/bfs. LOL.

Bleu de Chanel - by Chanel
La Nuit de L'homme - by YSL
or go with the classic Aqua - Armani

Those guys that go au-naturel, stay away from me please. You may not smell your own BO, but believe me, everyone else can. Here in SF where I take public transportation, and there are lots of "au-naturel" guys/gals here, your smells are freaking nauseous. Bathe, put on some good smelling stuff.
