Do you wear cologne?

Do you wear it (perfume, if you're a woman), and if so - what kind?

I like Polo Sport on my hubby...

Any and all hijacking is welcome

I guess it's OK for a guy to be a bit "sweaty". On a woman - not that socially acceptable!

No. My grandfather wore cologne. I don't want to be my grandfather, although already I have his thinning hair, dimming eyesight and lapse in memory.

Aw, heck, I might as well go buy a bottle of cologne.

What, no High-Karate, Brut, Old Spice, Aqua Velva, or English Leather???

On rare occasions, I'll spritz on a small dose of Fahrenheit or Escape. Probably Escape the most often. Used to like Drakkar Noir, but prefer more fruity than floral. Less harsh on the nose.

Rarely, but when I do, it's Hugo Boss's original cologne.

Used to wear the original Polo, but got tired of everyone else wearing it.

You literally mentioned every cologne my father used when I was growing up. I'm not kidding. The first group, of course. Too funny.

I don't wear cologne often, but when I do, it's Canali. Although I do remember those High Karate ads from TV from the "old" days!

How many of those did you give him for holidays? :)

Something to look forward to in a decade or so... Old Spice from the kid.
