By knowing the guidelines you increase the probability of getting compliments


If people are complimenting your cologne, you're wearing too much of it.

Cologne was for back when antiperspirants didn't really work. Unless you're single and trying to attract trashy women, don't wear man-perfume.

Those "men's men" who wore cologne back in the day, they were covering up the smell of sweat and tobacco. Just put on some antiperspirant and chew a Tic-Tac after you smoke.

Spot on, besides that anti-perspirant piece. That doesn't do anything to stop odor, just sweat, and its terrible for you.

Just use deodorant and you won't smell at all and won't have yellow stains (caused by antiperspirant).

So only wear so much that it can’t be detected?

And I am well aware of the dangers of overspraying.

Old man cologne is just alcohol based after shave.




I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older.

We have one of our millwrights who must bath in whatever cologne he wears. He will go to the truck and respray the shite multiple times during his shift. We are at a papermill, it is hot as shite and everyone is sweating and smells like arse and I can smell him from 20 feet away with the damn cologne. You will get a headache from the smell if he rides in the truck with you.

Hai Karate used to come with instructions on how to defend yourself against aggressive women after you put the cologne on.

Half a squirt on the chest under the shirt. Not always, but sometimes I just feel like it.
