first cologne as a kid: brut and Stetson.

Had them both. Also had a great aunt who sold Avon back then so I had a collection of different Avon colognes in bottles like these....

Every Christmas & birthday I knew exactly what Aunt Inez was going to give me.

Pimped the Cool Water back in high school. Haven't touched a bottle of cologne since.

This was my first as well. The first time I used it I was 14. I sat down at the breakfast table and my dad put the paper down and said "Good God! You don't have to put cologne on all at once! Wash that crap off, my eyes are watering!"

Cologne is for middle schoolers and trash adults.

Tommy Hilfiger cologne took me back to the mid 90's

recently started wearing this again about 6 months ago. You wouldnt believe the compliments i have gotten on it. I figured since the fad had died down no one these days had ever smelled it, or its been 20 years since they had so its something fresh and new. My all time fav cologne!

I can instantly smell a cologne and it brings me back to that ex boyfriend. It's almost like you just saw them, but you didn't. Lol. A great smelling man is not a bad thing at all!

This doesn't even make any sense.

Sorry you're either a middle schooler or trash.

i used Polo and Drakkar, then went to Obsession when it came out. Have tried others since the 90's, but i still use Obsession.

Still one of best male colognes out there, which is why it's still expensive, even today. $75-80 for a normal spray bottle.
