would you wanna be with someone who wore any of the following?:

old spice
chaps
jean nate'
enjoli'

$1 knockoffs of designer fragrances

C'mon, now... Jean Nate' wasn't cheap! it had TV commercials and everything!!!

It's the person I would be more interested in, not what cologne a man wore.

I lose interest in men depending on what frangrance they are wearing, yes.
But it's not so much due to the price of the scent, but the image it invokes in me.

For example, men who wear Polo (the original in the green bottle) turn me off completely.

Scent ... being a deep primal attraction force



I naturally would not be attracted to someone i didnt think smelled incredible

I do not find any type of chemical cologne / perfume naturally attractive so ...

No

no. I can't stand cheap guys...we don't get along too well.

Only if they let me borrow some

Hey, when I was in middle school, buddies and I used to make each other share some Jovan Musk and Stetson samples.

hahaha.


Those were the days.

You know this is about to morph into or spawn a colones/perfumes thread, right?



Dare I?

go for it!

He wouldn't even get past "hello" if he was wearing cheap cologne.

The first two things I check out on someone is their cologne and their watch.

Just from personal experience, if they have cheap cologne on, they're generally lazy about their hygiene and only clean themselves up when they absolutely have to.

I won't get into the whole watch thing, thats another thread LOL.

Tom said:

This is interesting!!! Give the watch manifesto, too!

Tom said:

Some people don't even wear watches. I know I haven't worn one in years

ThreadBare said:

lol. When I meet people for the first time at a bar, and I get the feeling they're pretending to be something they're not, like rich and successful lol, their watch is usually a dead giveaway.

My dad wears Polo, so I would be turned off by it too. I like the smell of Polo, it's just I don't wanna date someone who smells like my dad.

Fury said:

you know, if i were lucky enough to be with him he could roll in poo and i'd still love him

I personally don't wear those knock offs. I used to in high school, but stopped buying them because the scent never lasted long....only for an hour or so. I don't mind if others wanna wear them though as long as they're not doused in it. Overpowering scents of any kind would make me a little sick to my stomach.

I've been wearing these one's alot...



Del Mar



Very Cool



Polo Black



Corduroy

I love a cheap date.

I knew someone would get us started!!!

Tom, don't call my faves cheap, ya hear!












and the everyman of the group:

My grandmother wore Chanel no 5. My grandfather used to give her a bottle every year for Xmas. When he died, I took over that responsibility and bought her a bottle for Xmas every year. When she died I kept her leftover bottles. I still have them, but they're tucked away.
The smell brings back such good memories.

what a sweet story!

I'm a sucker for Old Spice.

Invariably, when I think some guy smells amazing and I ask what he's wearing, it's Old Spice. . . often just Old Spice deoderant.

hell no.

Personally, as long as she doesn't smell like ass I'm not terribly concerned about the pedigree of a woman's perfume. That said, I have a history of dating high maintenance women, so maybe I'm full of it..
